If 2018 is to bring with it new music from August Alsina, 2017 is proof that interest in the stronger parts of his discography is still sky high.
Epic news for the R&B prince below…
The response garnered by his last studio album ‘This Thing Called Life’ was lukewarm forcing the performer to pull the plug on its promotion earlier than he would have liked.
However, its predecessor – ‘Testimony’- continues to soar to higher ground three years after its release.
How so?
Spotify.
‘I Luv This’, the single which stood as his Def Jam debut, has been streamed 57 million times on Spotify pushing the number of its streams its parent album has received north of the 100 million mark.
These figures are to thank for the Gold certification the set recently received and will comes as positive news for August who is now tasked with turning his digital pull into hard sales once his next album hits retailers.
