Woke by numbers

A combination of 'woke' and 'painting by numbers'.
A personality or a cultural product that cautiously mimes textbook approaches to being 'woke' while in actuality conforming to a rigid ideological agenda based on restricting free thought and actual radical gestures, movements and solutions.
This can also apply to the curation of personalities and concepts that truly are progressive based solely on their utility towards creating the false appearance of a progressive values.
This exhibition seems very diverse but really it's just woke by numbers.

do numbers

"Doing Numbers" refers to when something sells alot of units or a respectable amount of units. Mostly used on forums to predict, celebrate or ridicule the performance of an album that just hit the market. In hiphop forums, arguments over successful/superior albums can sometimes result in comparing Soundscan/Hits Daily Double sales.

For an album to "do numbers", usually it needs to sell AT LEAST 100k in the first week, go #1 on the chards, and go GOLD or PLATINUM at some point.. otherwise it is a dud
The J.Cole album is coming out after being pushed back 5x, it has no buzz behind it, i doubt it'll do numbers
