Drakes thank me later projected to sales 475k

Postby brockl101 » Jun 16th, '10, 16:50

Drake’s debut full-length studio album “Thank Me Later,” which was released on Tuesday (June 15), is projected to sell in the range of 425,000 to 475,000 — if not more — by week’s end on June 20. If it moves as much as sources think, it’ll mark one of the biggest sales weeks of the year for a single album. So it looks like em should have no problem selling more
in the first week.

i remember some site had Relapse selling a milli last year
not saying it's not true, just saying it's not a very good source, unlike hitsdailydouble

Made me laugh when I kept reading predictions of various people thinking it would do a million first week

When was the last rap/hip-hop album to beat Relapse in terms of first week sales? I'm sure Relapse is still the highest-selling first week album since 2008, when The Carter 3 dropped.


T.I Paper trail did like 700k

& TML is a debut album... Relapse was a 5 years much anticipated comeback album. Don't compare

nope according to billboard, "T.I. earns his third straight No. 1 on The Billboard 200 as "Paper Trail" debuts at the top this week. The rapper earns his biggest sales week ever with the Grand Hustle/Atlantic set, which moved 568,000 copies in the U.S., according to Nielsen SoundScan, which is also the third-biggest sales frame of the year."

Nobodys comparing, we just wanted to know what Drake's predicted album sales would be. Shit, i mean EMs debut only did 300,000 in 1999, but he ended up doing really strong by weeks on. It was u lilwayne4life that started comparing.

Edit: i take that back em fans started it lol
