Kendrick Lamar is expected to bring in big numbers with the release of his fourth studio album, DAMN. According to Billboard, the project is projected to push 475,000 equivalent album units as it tops the Billboard 200 chart. These numbers would be the second-highest selling week for an album so far this year, coming second only to Drake’s More Life debut, which pushed just over 500,000 in its first week. Drizzy spent three weeks at the top position before being dethroned by the Chainsmokers this week.
This will be Kung Fu Kenny’s third #1 album. His previous crowns come from last year’s untitled, unmastered and the Grammy-winning To Pimp a Butterfly. His major label debut, 2012’s good kid m.A.A.d. city, peaked at #2.
DAMN. also produced Kendrick’s highest-charting Hot 100 song to date with “HUMBLE.” reaching the #2 position upon its debut. This was the highest entry for a rap song since Eminem and Rihanna’s “Love the Way You Lie” hit the second slot back in 2010.
Dat shitty ass “Love the Way You Lie” wigger song came out in 2010 not 2007. but whats more important is Kendrick Dumbo Lamer flopped hard as fuck compared to Drizzy Drake da Goat. skrrt
Well, a kendrick fan, I’m not felling most of this album… I mean, the song “god” and “loyalty@ sound like some 2017 pop shit. It’s more pop than Ja rule ever got lol. It’s depressing man…
True I’m a big Kendrick fan but how do you go from to pimp a butterfly to this garbage
Those are the best songs on the album lol
….2013, actually.
If you gave Drake a major label, a tech giant, and a room full of writers and producers, and all you gave Kendrick was an independent label and a joint venture with a major label I bet Kendrick would still make better music than him!!!
Well deserved, Great album
Joe Budden has some push ups to do*
Album DAMN….. is stra8 ??????….. Easily album of the year so far….. Fake Drake move over for some real HIP HIP……

Only because all y’all like gay ass none rapping singing clowns Now days. drake is ass to the Third degree
What’s wrong with gay ass?
Bruh..Drake is a pop/r&b/rap/and now grime artist with hella mainstream appeal. Kendrick straight raw hip hop and only old 25000 Less units than your boyfriend. Humble and DNA 2 singles wit no damn autotune or singing. Smarten up, young money is pop, TDE is hip hop. And stop saying “we” like you apart of young money ya dick rider. None of them fools give a fuck bout u
One thing you better know is the best rappers don’t sell now day’s I’m surprise Kendrick still putting up numbers like this drake is a good singer a bum as a rapper horrible but has a crazy following so stop playing
Why are you saying “we” and “us ” like you’re a part of Young Money? Shut the fuck up, groupie bitch.
