Yesterday, reports emerged about the 7-track project doing ridiculous numbers on various streaming giants.

Kanye West’s album, “Ye,” is already crushing numbers … and it’s only been available for a few days. Numbers for the 7-song project are astounding — Kanye’s filled the top 7 song spots on both Spotify and Apple Music — and the album’s already accumulated over 100 million streams total.

To add to those stats …

— #1 iTunes Album in 63 countries.
— #1 Spotify global peak position.
— #1 Apple Music album in 83 countries. (TMZ)

The hip-hop heavyweight’s new LP is set to destroy its competition with its first-week sales.

Paul Rosenberg and Team Def Jam, having just returned from a whirlwind trip to Wyoming, are noting the numbers of Kanye West’s new, highly touted seven-song release.
