Lil Wayne’s “Tha Carter IV” Breaks Jay-Z & Kanye West’s First Week iTunes Sales Record

    Just a few weeks after Jay-Z and Kanye West broke the first week sales record for iTunes with Watch the Throne, Lil Wayne accomplished the same feat with his latest album Tha Carter IV in just four days.

    According to HHNM, Weezy has sold more than 300,000 copies of his latest offering since it hit the web on early Monday at midnight. In its first week, TC4 is now expected to move between 925,000 and 975,000 copies, whereas earlier estimates put the album between 850,000 and 900,000 units.

    In its first week out, Watch the Throne broke Coldplay’s previous iTunes record for first week sales, moving roughly 290,000 copies.

      1. So what happens when the producers sue? They settle for a less amount of money than they deserve rightfully… Who’s profit margin just got bigger? YMCMB… I dunno why ppl dont understand that business strategy at all..

      1. Agreed. But what can you expect when 75% of the people out there buying these albums are the same teens with disposable income who will go out and buy Gaga and Ke$ha joints.

      2. ^^^AGain, pulling numbers of your ass with zero proof to make a false point
        Haters have no clue how to debate, do they?
        Debate with FACTS, not made-up numbers
        Jesus

      3. I think your comment is inaccurate. Lil is about 27 or 28 yrs old, he’s been with Cash Money since the age of 11 or so. So, if you’re in your mid to upper 30’s…resided anywhere from Texas to Florida and as far north as Tenn…chances are they’re buying his music as well. So, not only are teens buying his material but adults are too. Dude appeals to the younger generation & older generation. What other artist besides Em is doing that?

    1. definetly hottest rapper in da game right now..We all kno Carter 4 was subpar to say the least & not a classic (as some think Carter 3 was) but to sell this much out the gate is impressive. He’s the only rapper dat cud compete with Eminem as far as sales go

      1. “We all kno Carter 4 was subpar to say the least & not a classic, but to sell this much out the gate is impressive”

        I call it a cry of desperation from a desperate generation. How is an album that everybody knows is subpar & not a classic impressive? furthermore what would this generation even consider a classic? You havent even learned to appreciate the culture yet so how could you embrace anything from this culture for a lifetime? be real with yourselves…not about wayne bashing Im just trying to figure out where people are coming from when they cheerlead for him…I dont understand your joy…and miss me with all that hater bullshit…

    2. I wouldn’t be surprised if YMCMB was buying the album themselves. Imagine if Lil Wayne didn’t sell records, the public would start thinking he’s not as hot anymore and the stock would slowly start dropping. Now, if sales are at an all time high and he’s breaking records the public perception changes with that as well, it’s too important to leave to chance, they’re buying them shits.

      1. Wayne’s MAIN facebook page has over 31 million “likes” alone.
        Over 31 million people on facebook alone like him enough to click the button.
        Is it really that far-fetched to think that 900k out of 31 mil (which is a very small %) of those people bought the album, and that’s not even factoring in his non-facebook fans?

    3. hell naw i aint never kissed my pops on the lips. that shit is gay son. the man can sell cd’s but this album is very below average.

    6. The International Diamond Club is elite group of rappers who have sold 10+ Million not only in the U.S. but, world wide. Including 50 Cent, Will Smith, Tupac, The Notorious BIG, Eminem & Outkast. Some of you may be thinking what about Nelly, Lauryn Hill, Kanye West and many other Muti-Platinum selling artist? International sales did not scan 10+ Million.

      To this date 50 Cent’s 2003 debut Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ has sold over 15,915,010 world wide. 8,489,000 copies sold in the U.S. alone.

      Will Smith’s 1997 album Big Willie Style which spawed the hit’s “Gettin Jiggy Wit It” & “Miami” has sold over 16,085,250 copies and ove 9 Million in the United States.

      Tupac & The Notorious B.I.G both have sold well over 19 Million records world wide. Tupac’s All Eyes On Me and The Notorious B.I.G’s Life After Death.

      The 2003 album Speakerboxxx/The Love Below became Outkast’ bigges album todate coming in at over 13 million sold as of August of 2010.

      The Marshall Mathers LP was Eminems second studio album going on to sell over 25 Million copies world wide, making him the highest selling artist in rap/hip-hop.

      Side Note: 50 Cent is the only one on the list to have two albums reach Diamond status world wide: 2003’s Get Rich Or Die Tryin & 2005’s The Massacre

      SO WAYNE STIL HAS GOT ALOT OF WORK TO DO AHAH now as for pure skills he suck

      1. 1. Different times you moron. If Wayne was doing this during that time, he would sell just as much as those guys. Right now most people download music.
        2. Pure skills wise, Wayne is one of the GOATS

      2. I’m not even sure what alternate dimension someone would have to live in where skills and Lil Wayne would ever go together.

        What skills? Find another 900 ways to talk about licking pussy? Find a way to make a rhyme rhyme even less?

        Rakim with a traumatic brain injury and a broken jaw could still outspit, outflow, and outrhyme Lil Wayne.

      3. Side Note: 50 Cent is the only one on the list to have two albums reach Diamond status world wide: 2003’s Get Rich Or Die Tryin & 2005’s The Massacre

        Are you fucking stupid?!!… Sorry that was wrong RETARDED??

        TWO of Em’s albums ALONE have sold 10million plus in the US and 19 mill worldwide!! Forget that did you?!

        People need to know facts or just stay quiet.

      4. Jason, if Wayne was doing these albums during THOSE times, he wouldn’t be CLOSE to selling like that, you fucking idiot!!!

      5. @ Anonymous(Scared to have a user name… or jus thick!)

        So wait let me clear this up, Em is 10 mill plus on two albums? yes or no?… Yes thats what I thought aswell so the first pile os shit you wrote about is inaccurate? yes?… again thats what I thought.

        Thick mother fuckers now a days for real

        Haters never get it, do they?
        Every time you talk about Wayne, Wayne wins

      2. @ jason are you fucking retarded?

        Wayne has no classic albums. CLASSIC ALBUMS 4 example are like Illmatic, Ready 2 Die, OB4CL, The Chronic, 2pac albums

        fvck outta here, if he were in the 90’s that nigga would be working @ MCDONALDS………NAHMEAN

        LOL @ “IF”
        Why do Lil Wayne haters always resort to speculation and/or pulling numbers out of their ass?
        Making a hypothetical with no evidence doesn’t win you any argument

      5. @ JASONgayazz

        i don’t even no why i am responding to a troll. U FVCKING DOUCHE BAG U AND WAYNE CAN GO FVCK EACH OTHER WHILE U PLAY HOW TO LOVE…………LOL THAT NIGGA HAS 4 KIDS WITH DIFFERENT MOTHERS AND HE MADE THAT LMAO LMAO DUDE CLAIMS HE IS A BLOOD TOO

      6. @Doug…You & I had a brief Lil Wayne discussion the other day. To say you’re not a Lil Wayne fan, you sure have a lot to say about how “bad” his music is…seeing how you’ve responded to 2 posts on here. Why don’t you just stop listening to his music? You have to be listening to it in order to give an opinion.

    7. Do they also count digital sales with the physical sales as well? Becuase it seems they ony country digital sales and physical sales for the first week only and then just physical sales there after.Does anyone know?

    8. WATCH THE THRONE, I’M WATCHING IT ALRIGHT…….. HATERS WILLY ONLY COME UP WITH….”BIRDMAN BOUGHT THEM”… HAHAHAHAH, NOW GO LISTEN TO ESTELLE, BREAK MY HEART RECORD….. HJAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

      1. jay got the throne get over it when wayne has 12 number 1 albums holla back when wayne is worth almost a biilion dollars let me know.when he has 5 classics in his discography then we can talk about a throne. carter 4 is the worst album of the summer his punchlines sound desperate

        “im going in like my water broke” hah gtfoh the best songs on the album dont include him and those interludes have ran their course wayne just a sellout kissin men and wearing FEMALE TIGHTS smfh

    9. This website sure has a lot of characters. Let’s see here…
      We’ve got SuperGucciRap The Gucci Mane groupie
      Taylord the Taylor Gang groupie
      V-Nasty is God the White Girl Mob groupie
      Mandy Sandy the Roc Natiion groupie
      And now we’ve got jason the Lil Wayne groupie.
      Man I love this website. LMAO

    10. The kid has over 30 million likes on fb? And, some of you think the kid shouldnt have had 900k units sold?! Bitch made men/women need to be killed! Enough of the hate. If he hadnt sold yall would be saying why didnt the buy his own album> Since the album is selling well your accusing him of buying his own album like the dude doesnt have any fans. If you didnt buy you have nothing complain about. You proved youre nbot a fan. Stop acting like winning ass bitches because you wish more people would have done what you did. The album is a C+/B- at best. I never give an album an A so thats still good. You bitches amaze me!

    11. I’m sure the glorified crackhead bought the majority of those albums himself… I still can’t believe there are folks out there who actually buy his well below average shit though… Why support wack music talking about the same shit every single time on every single song….

      Fuck this crap I wanna hear a full DMX album and some Nas….

    12. I’ll say it again, cause you retarded haters don’t seem to have any common sense:
      Wayne’s MAIN facebook page has over 31 million “likes” alone.
      Over 31 million people on facebook alone like him enough to click the button.
      Is it really that far-fetched to think that 900k out of 31 mil (which is a VERY small %) of those people bought the album, and that’s not even factoring in his millions of non-facebook fans?

      1. No actually for once Jason has a point here.. 1 million ppl is about 3% of his fans on FB.

        Why on earth did u bring up 50 Cent in this conversation? 50 has 4.9 million followers on Twitter… what does that compare to Wayne’s 31 million fans on FB?

        What people dont understand about the internet is that shit is called conversion. How many of your fans can you convert into sales…. Wayne’s percentage is relatively low but he has a high number of fans, a high enough number that he can be pulling in sales like this.

    13. THE STATE OF HIPHOP/RAP HAS REACH AN ALL TIME LOW…when the general public invests money in artists who only make words rhyme without the presence of coherence and relevance. Look folks…lil weezy is only as artistic as the tight jeans he wears with his ass hanging out which is not very masculine might I add and definitely not “gangster”! Hip hop and the rap genres are suffering bitterly at the hands of individuals who pose as artists. As bad as the economy is, which is why all record sales are suffering, people find cause in buying lil wayne’s music only because he is deemed as being popular. There are rappers out such as Eminem, Game, Nas, Scarface, and Jay Z who constanly rip microphones to shreds with their solid skills of coherently telling fascinating stories their reality and how they see the worls as we know it through their rhymes!! This is the very essence of what we came to love about hip hop and the rap game. You need to stop supporting artists who dont take the time to at least bring you nothing but their very best offerings, in terms of music, when they try to convince you to spend your money to make them rich and live in oppulence while the majority of our society lives mediocre at best. All the comments on here that say or imply that lil wayne is the best when it comes to rapping is apparently unaware and misguided as to what real skill sounds like on the microphone!!

    14. LOL @ the wayne cheerleaders…I mean its cool to be excited but cmon! What are you actually celebrating when your dont give a fuck about the culture anyway? Do people hate the sound of traditional hip hop THAT MUCH? How to love is HORRID yet everybody bitched about otis! why? Wheres all the outrage for weezy trying too hard? for trying to be a skater rocker & gang banger at the same time? Niggas had a fit cause jay & kanye used a fuckin sample but act like they dont see waynes fake tear drop tats! Hes learning how to skateboard at 29 with his knee pads and helmet like a child for christ sakes, if thats not trying too hard to be down I dont know what is…

    15. COSIGN!!!! educate these kiddies man THIS SHIT A FUCKIN joke, no hate either he moves units big woop, but HE N HIS PHONEY FANS DON’T CARE BOUT THE CULTURE. the guy is a joke n has been he’s an entertainer NOT A HIP HOP MC. Wayne is just another mainstream gimmick dude is lame….

    16. Honestly something isn’t right here.
      i listened to the Carter IV in its entirety,. its horrible. Im 33,.Maybe im too old for what his subject matter is but man really ,. Watch the throne is very soul full and entertaining, Carter Iv is terrible.

    17. The album was average at best in my opinion….sounds uninspired..that being said, do you idiots actually think you can buy your own records in large amounts like that? First, it’s a fuckin FEDERAL OFFENSE. anti-trust, fair practice applies to all businesses, including the music business. Second, think about it literally. Have you ever bought a song from ITunes? Credit/debit card needed…so let’s say half..u think they got 150k different credit cards, different names and addresses? Think before you talk stupid shit…BTW, those jeggins were gay as hell.

    18. I’m goning to start calling this site the “HATER” SITE…LOL…Its amazing how so many people dislikes or hates one artist. This site represents when freedom of speech goes wrong…LOL…Lil Wayne is out selling any rapper on the West, in the South and Northeast. The only artist that can match him right now is in the Midwest (Em)…I wouldn’t be surprised if somebody on this site killed themselves b/c of dude’s success…LMAO…

      1. Well, if the only place Wayne’s new album is appreciated is LilWayneHQ.com, then maybe it’s because it is actually a bad album? not to mention, that reviews’ consensus is that the album is disappointing

        anecdote to sum up
        Secretary calls her boss
        “Mr Smith, news reports say that there is a crazy man driving on the opposite lane”
        “not A man darling, thousands, thousands of them!”

      2. hahahaha my bro no luv 4 a nigga, niggas just b player hatin on the degree its like they got phd player hating degree weezy d best haters go masturbate wiv a pocupine.

    19. The saddest part of all this is that a majority of the people that buy Wayne’s music these days probably don’t even know that Wayne actually made a damn good Hip-Hop album once (The Carter 2). I bet if you played them shit from the first 2 carter albums, they would say “this is wack, this don’t make dance”. Good for Wayne for selling, too bad he’s getting worse on every album

      1. Are u fucking stupid? Proof? Gillie Who? Anybody could say they wrote somebody raps trying steal credit for it. HEY EVERYBODY I WROTE ALL WEEZY RAPS AND CARTER 1 AND 2 AND 3 AND 4 AND ALL HIS MIXTAPES AND EVERY GUEST FEATURE VERSE, fuck outta here clown

    20. C4 just shitted on em

      i see the haters still on here wondering how and why can he sale so much they just curious

    21. Congrats Wayne. I like WTT better but CIV has gotten better after a few listens. WTT has more depth IMO and better production. But Carte IV is good in a different way, i.e: rider music, punchlines, features. It’s just a different vibe.

    22. Always thought first week sales were lame to put conversation on how populer a artist is. Shouldn’t 2nd and 4th week sales determine that?I mean in the sense of mantaining decent numbers. He’s gaurenteed plat but will it go to further heights like 2-3 mill?

      Personally I am not a fan of Lil Wayne(He has bangers but his subject matter is too repetitive imo). Still respect his grind and wish him the best.

    23. Birdman AKA Baby bought 500k of that, I put my life on the bet for that shit.

      + Somebody please smack that Wayne groupie Jason, faggot!

      Carter IV sucks ass, I was expecting to hear a much better record from Wayne since it’s about Carter IV.

      Fuck outta here.

    24. Damn Jason you are riding lil Wayne’s dick way too hard. How many times you gonna post. No work or school day? Just saying you are up early on a friday withnothin better to do than taste Wayne’s pee pee. Shit give it a rest already

    25. They could have at least made the numbers look a little realistic. The trend of the label (Birdman) buying his CDs continue.

      Drake was far more “popular” and didn’t do close to these numbers.

    26. I am not quite sure why everybody is so mad… I would be mad if Soulja Boy did these numbers, or Waka Flocka, or Lil B but this is Wayne…. Dude put in the work on every level of the game, underground right up to mainstream. What some ppl dont realize is Cash Money was about to sink afta Mannie Fresh walked out those doors in 2004, Wayne was the only one left and they put the company on his back and now they have 3 multi-platinum artists with a gang of other artists coming.

      Shit Wayne turned the mixtape game mainstream… Wayne is the fucking reason every rapper went back to the mixtapes to build a hype.

      Now last but not least… Wayne had singles that charted well! Fuck right now Wayne has 2 singles in the Top 10 on Billboard’s Hot 100. For the clowns that dont understand that, that means ALL radio stations that bump Top 40 music are playing Lil Wayne’s music, white ppl are listening and they are buying. No matter how shitty u think some piece of music is, no matter the colour of the artists skin, if it charts well then it crosses over to white ppl easily.

      I have been a fan of Wayne’s for a minute… I heard C4 and I thought it was just slightly above the average album we hear now a days. I am still open to letting it grow on me though. Jay my fav rapper and Ye is for damn sure right up there, one of the greatest producers in the game and one of the illest on the mic…….. Guess what? I aint made that Wayne broke a record they set two weeks ago and I aint mad that he outsold their whole album sales in his first week. Although its funny cuzz Jigga used that as a line on Takeover (I believe). I find it ironic that somebody can say that about him if they wanted too lol

      Niggaz just need to stop hating…. Just think about the amount of time u waste out of your day to argue with ppl who just simply dont have the same taste in music as you do..

      1. LOL STOPPED READING WHEN YOU WROTE UNDERGORUND TO MAINSTREAM…..

        that nigga was never underground lol @ that garabge post

      2. I hate the term CROSSOVER. like who the fuck made white people the ones to crossover to? so when white people like it, you made it? fuck that shit boy…

      3. Awesome post yo; I couldn’t agree with you more! I’ve been a fan of Wayne since “Get It How U Live”, and lots of people pretend that he was whack back in the day, but he’s always been a solid rapper. When you go back and listen, you’ll hear that he was actually pretty lyrical, which he solidified with “Lights Out” (my fav. Wayne album btw) and his SQAD UP mixtapes.

        I used to hate on him for a little while around the time 500 Degreez came out b/c I thought he was disrespectful to Juvenile for the album title and I thought he was a bit cocky, but the quality of his music brought me right back around when Tha Carter came out! He MURDERED that shit (even though it was a bit lengthy and redundant, coupled with Mannie Fresh’s tiresome production)

        Weezy has busted his ass making music ALL OF THE TIME, making numerous mixtapes and doing a gang of features for multiple artists. @ the end of the day, even though he’s definitely dumbed down his lyricism recently, with all his hard work, he deserves all of his accolades & accomplishments!

      4. Preach nigga, these idiots don’t understand hard work, and persistence.

        Wayne had to adapt and switch his whole persona, not like today were a kid gets tatted up, starts to smoke weed, and ppl think he’s a trend setter. I’m talking about back in 2004 when muthafuckas were rocking sweatbands and oversized jerseys.

        I remember reading a XXL article of wayne back in 2004-2005 when the nigga was saying, how he’s made all the money he’ll ever need, and that now he WANTS all our RESPECT as an artist. And that he’ll be looked at as the best rapper alive, when the dust settles. Its funny cause the article was just a one pager, and everyone thought he was just smoking dust, but word, a part of me believed him. Wish I had that article, cause word is bond.

      5. @Anonymous Yes I said underground because the truth is that when dude was doing Sqad Up mixtapes that shit was NOT mainstream…. At that time nobody was fucking with Wayne anymore because he was on his own trying to build his team. They released 6 mixtapes and NO albums… thats grinding…. UNDERGROUND! The drought’s and the dedication mixtapes those were mainstream too right? At that time aint no mixtape being highlighted as OFFICIAL or LABEL backed and shit, hitting stores with a release date. U had to go search and find that shit…… Dude put his fucking work in and I aint mad at him for reaping the benefits now.

    27. Is it that far-fetched to think he would sell? I went to his show, it was crazy. To think, 15K + people at his show, people from all walks of his life, knowing all the words to ALL his songs, including mixtape songs. And he’s doing this in city after city.

      I think the numbers might be legit

    28. @jason u da best man, we rep lilwayne world wide, even in africa we love dat dude keep responding 2 dis haters nd its true the more they talk d stronger he gets they dont just get. Add me on f.b pls, dante fresher daniel.

      1. weezy da best u fools, in the body of the world, money is the blood. And everi day he b back and forth to the blood bank. Hahaiahahaha dis albums numbers gon b crazy.

    29. To the people that say since wayne has 30 million facebook likes that he should be able to sell 900,000 easily. Eminem has 46 million likes on facebook and his recovery album only sold 741,000 in first week sales. So something can’t be right. Especially since waynes album has gotten bad reviews across the board and it leaked early. Also on twitter and here I always see people bashing the album. It was even a trending topic a couple days ago about how bad the album was. I know alot of wayne fans that didnt even buy the album cause they knew how bad it was. So waynes album sales can’t be legit. But if they are legit, then in my opinion raps close to dead. Nas or DMX can put out an album tommoro and it will probably only sell 100k while waynes terrible album sells 900k. smh..

      1. You analysis is flawed…Eminem didn’t sell as much in the first week, but you’ll see Eminem will sell more overall (first week sales are just first week).

      2. STFU dummy…talkin’ bout “something can’t be right”…what you gon launch an investigation? lmao..ol nerd ass nigga…i know you a white boy..”according to my research, em has 45 million and sold 741 thousand” blah blah blah…nigga, for one…more TEENAGERS AND KIDS will buy wayne before eminem because of the subject matter..and another thing…more WHITE KIDS will buy wayne’s shit than BLACK KIDS will buy em’s…nuff said..muthafucka

      3. To Whyyouwannaknow. Your a fucking idiot everything you just said was stupid. It dosent matter what race the fans are. em has more fans but he sells less. How does that make sense? and only little bitches talk shit online bro and I am white but I’m not old. I’m just intelligent.

      4. who said he has more fans? what you took a straw poll too? lol the kids can quote WAYNE HOW TO LOVE word for word…ask them to do the same for Em and (basketball wives) Royce’s “lighters”…dumb mufucka…

      5. I agree with you 100%. Those numbers have been fixed! You’re Eminem analogy is right on! People didn’t like it, buzz wasn’t that big, singles weren’t that big or liked, yet he outsells everybody?? No, something ain’t right!!

    30. Just goes to show you that gay people love to buy albums. So all you aspiring rappers need to step your dick sucking skills up if you want to be numero uno.

    31. Baby and Cash Money Records is buying these copies. Think about it. Open your minds… If the album is $10 they can invest 1 million dollars in their franchise artist to boost his sales by 100k. The return far outweighs the investment. They aren’t just buying records they are buying public perception. The more people seeing it moving the more people are actually going to buy it.

      1. if that’s the case..same with eminem…what cuz he white his label wouldn’t do that?? stfu…how the fuck you gon say that about an album that will probably sell LESS than em aka “new-elvis” highest selling album sold? low and behold THE MOST POPULAR BLACK ARTIST right now sells a lot…fuck off bitch

      2. @stfu Please, you emo homo. Eminem DOES sell what he does because HE and 75% of this country are middle to lower class white people. His topics are what they are because he’s white and white people love it, buy it and relate to it because they are white. Grow up. Do some thinking. Buying albums to boost chart numbers and public perception is as old as they day is long. Simpleton. Try reading something or doing some research before you just blurt out the first thing you feel. I’m sure you life is beyond mediocre because of it. Have a great weekend… Or couple of hours, I’m sure you’ll be at work most of the time or living off mommy and daddy.

      3. he speaks to the lower and middle class whites huh? i guess that’s why they’re killing their girlfriends and raping their mothers. go figure.

    32. wayne has a HUGE gay following real TALK them man girls love him for kiisng baby and wearing tights and he got alot of homo thugs down with him he the omar of rap

    33. Cmon now people the album was done around january which gave it 2 months prior from being released from prison so that explains the lack of production nd ish but the album overall stinks I demanded a refund nd the only people buying this crap after all the shitty reviews are kids nd those who r not hip hop heads nd people who just cop it because of his name overall I give it a 2/5

      1. but you brought it

        see i knew red,wtt,bme would be wack to me so i didnt buy them or download them you should try that sometimes

    34. i bet i can find two people, who tink jake should STFU ND GET HIS HATER ASS OUTTA DIS SITE, RYT? JASON AND SOMEONE ELSE, hate it or want it the album is selling madli, haters ITS PAYBACK TIME, LIKE MY WATCH WAS BOUGHT ON CREDIT. WAYNE BEST RAPPER ALIVE.

    35. WATCH THE THRONE GET BLOWN THE FUCK UP BY SOME C-4!!! LMAO!!!! YALL SOUND UPSET…CHEER UP, YOU STILL HAVE BILLS TO PAY! LOL

    36. 300,000 13 year old white girls downloaded tha carter 4 off itunes

      there was literally 4 decent tracks on this lp, and i will get bored of them in a few weeks.

      nas had the best verse on the album

      cole world
      life is good

    37. i think dis jason fag juss keep refreshing da page waiting for sumbody to say sumthing negative about wayne lmao wat a lame.get over it LIL WAYNE FUCKING SUCKS

      1. jason has no life whatsoever. he has several youtube accounts and trolls on EVERY lil wayne sucks video, he’s been at it for months on end and he also trolls on many other sites doing the same thing. 900K? who gives a fuck, marshall mathers LP sold 1.7 million in its first week and it’s a classic. i dont know why wayne stans are so shortsighted and so hellbent on dickriding him, it’s pathetic. their views is based solely on media hype and the influence of their peers, fuckin sheep no minds of their very own.

      2. nah you wanna kno da funny thing about dis all.everybody juss started getting on waynes dick da other day.everybody saying he best and wat not when it toke him 10 FUCKING YEARS! juss to get how and where hes at now.he got famous 4 years ago.so he basically juss startedd getting recognized in 2007.hes not shit his lyrics are trash and drake is nutthin special either.if people actually focused on wat he said ya would be like wTf?? let sumbody else rapped wat wayne rapped and everybody gunna be like hes trash.dey need to stop acting like groupies seriously

    38. “Someone tell Kanye West to keep his clothes on, and if Wayne’s E.T.-ish then tell him phone home”.

      Dead.

    39. Jay-z and kanye are watching the throne while lil wayne sits on it! lol

      numbers don’t lie right jay? lol

      1. Nigga please wayne has one multi-platinum album, Jay has seven multi-platinum albums. Jay’s breakout in 98 album sold 5 million records in the US alone and he didn’t if sell million his first week, he only sold 300-plus and it was number one on the billboard 200 for whole month. Wayne’s breakout in 2008 Carter 3 sold a million it’s first week, then only sold 3 million in total lol Wayne has been on top of the game for three years now, but Jay has been dominating the game for near two decades. Everything Jay drops goes double or platinum from soundtracks-collabs.

    40. Here’s the thing bout lil Wayne and please no idiots call me a hater. He is the current trend. Do any of remember Ja rule, 50 cent & Nelly all three of them were just as big as Wayne at one time. But the problem is they all r talentless and couldn’t stay relevant cuz there just a fad. In 1-2 years we will b saying remember Lil Wayne. Let’s b honest the Carter 4 is awful, sorry but it is. Once someone else comes along and gets ppl’s attention the kind of music listeners who buy these artists music will move on. It’s just the way it works, 50 cent was twice as big as lil Wayne in his prime. No he’s the joke of rap, Wayne is just trendy, I mean come on I can write a lil Wayne lyric. He’s one – I’m sitting on the couch, couch potato. Hahahahaha.
      I feel bad for good rappers that can’t get exposer cuz of Wiz, Wayne, drake, Ross, Imagime if these goof balls came out in the late 90’s hahahahahahahaha. I really feel bad for the 20 year old who have to say they grew up on this crap. I’m 31 and I grew up on Biggie,PAC,Eminem,DMX.Jay,Nas,Pun,Lox,Wu-tang.
      Rap kinda sucks these days!!!

      1. idk why people choose to call sumone a hater cuz dey dislike sumthing but honestly for da fact of da matter is waynes wack.hes not a good rapper and i kno alot of rappers dat can rap circles around dem wether dey relevent or not

      2. Exactly it’s just a matter of time before he gets lost in oblivion.Remember how 50 fans were convinced that 50 did in two years what hov did in a decade lmao.I don’t understand why people get so upset about it.Let the kid get his money and entertain his crowd.Ignore him and soon you won’t have to tolerate him.

      3. I agree. Mainstream rap is so garbage that I actually miss the days when 50 Cent and Ja Rule were big because atleast they had some songs that were good. That’s how bad mainstream rap is today!

      4. I agree w/dis to an extent cuz there’s always gonna be an artist dat dominates da game. Back then, there were more but now only a few but the difference is dat Wayne’s work ethic is untouchable. Any1 in da industry will tell u dat, whether u think he sux or not, he’s constantly on features or creating albulms or mixtapes for his fans. He hasnt lost his drive or passion for music like 50, Nelly, Ja & some others. dats y he standsout

      5. yall said that when C3 drop on this same site back in 08 3years later C4 shitted on everything like C3 did

        keep it up haters

      6. Actually if you think about it, 50 from 2003 to 2005 was bigger than Wayne is now. 50’s first two albums have sold just about the same number of copies as all nine of Lil Wayne’s studio albums

        And we think of Nelly as a joke now, but he sold over 20 million copies of his albums and only Eminem outsold him last decade

      7. 50 Cent became big by himself.remember he had nutthin but enemies and nobdy liked him at all but he wass and still is a better artist den wayne.everybody kissing waynes ass and sucking his dick.nobody did dat to 50 and yet he still manage to dominate it back den.50 has moer talent den wayne and wayne hasss ghost writers.people juss hate to accept da face dat WAYNE SUCKS

      8. Lil Wayne a “current trend.” STFU! He been doing this shit solo since 1999. It’s 2011. Most of your favorite rappers ain’t doing shit. DMX, WU TANG, etc rap career was Over before Ross, Drake came to the scene. Yes, you still enjoy your favorite rapper old shit because their new shit is garbage.

      9. @Waynesucks: Negro do yo hw b4 u make an ignorant comment. 50’s first single”In da club” was produced by Dre. U call dat no help? His albulm featured Eminem,Snoop Dogg & members of G-Unit..50 had tremendous help from Em and Dre, all he had to do was write rhymes cuz dey gave him sick beats

    41. you can tell we live in america…we someone does good whether it’s in music, movies, sports, etc. people quick to come up with a theory about why that person is so popular. 300+ million people (majority 18 years and older) gone like who they want and just because you don’t, don’t mean others gone agree with your theory as to why that individual shouldn’t be or achieve what they did. reading where people say he has a large gay fan base or cash money buying a million copies themselves or whatever, but yet you come on everyday just to say something negative like that’s gon to change anything. a person can’t do well without something be wrong about it. but to just talk negative about a topic over and over is crazy. you have the freedom to not listen and support it. thinking you can come on here and rally others to agree with you is stupid. and what’s even more crazy is that you make it your business to see if something about wayne or ross is on hiphopdx every single day just to click and type something negative about it. wayne and ross can do something good and yet people gon say something bad about the situation. it’s beyond stupid to even carry yourself in that manner. yea we got the freedom to say what we wanna say in this country, but at the same time, be somewhat intelligent about it too. i’m not the biggest wayne fan myself, but to come on a website and discuss theories as to why he shouldn’t be where he is pointless. learn to congratulate peoples it goes a long way.

      1. In other words you know I’m right and totally agree with me but can’t admit it. Don’t worry turn ur Nikki minja cd back up. Everything will b ok.

      2. You can tell we live in America because the media and stans worship every rapper/celebrity thats popular for the moment. Whether it’s wack rappers like Wayne or overrated rappers like Jay-z to overrated actors like Christian Bale. Ya’ll worship and dickride everything they say and do!!!

      3. Trust me if Wayne was a lyrical genious who carries hip hop to another level all this negativity would be reduced.Of course some people are just jealous failures who hate anything has to do with success,but there are also people who judje the material and believe that his product will be detrimental to the culture in the long run.

      1. Jay-Z still has sold a lot of albums. Each of Jay-Z’s albums have sold over a million copies, which can not be said for Wayne, who still has five albums that have yet to cross the one million mark

      2. MEN LIE, WOMEN LIE, NUMBERS DONT”

        -JAY Z

        LMAO!!!!JAY-Z 50 MIL wayne at about 11mil dmx 15mil

        YOU FUCKIN TROLLS MAKE ME LAUGH trying to compare jay-z record sales to lil wayne jay-z QUADRUPLE WAYNES sales and you still got the nerve to bring up sales get off that wane shit its fuckin up your brains

      3. Every one knows that albums aren’t selling like they used to. Possibly because of the economy. Wayne will have a hard time catching up to Hov. Even Jay-Z couldn’t sell as many today as he did years ago. The best go double platinum if lucky and the good might go gold. Every one else sells barely anything. If Wayne was as hot 10 years ago as he was for Carter III & IV he could have easily went close to diamond. Ludacris and Nelly were murking Hov album sales at that time.

      1. lol this is exactly what’s wrong with society. They root for the wrong people.

        Just outta curiosity what are you so cheerful for? What do you get out of it? Wayne was already filthy rich to begin with, are you happy he’s getting more rich? Did ur $14 help out poor weezy? Are you getting any of that money that Wayne’s bout to be getting? Does wayne know you or give a fuck about you? Lol “cmon son”

    42. HipHop anit HIPPOP no more…This album is so wack. RED Album is better than WTT and Carter 4.. How the hell people supporting rappers like lil wayne.. THis shit is sad forealll.
      “FUCK A BEAT LISTEN TO THE DAMN WORDS IN THE SONG” DMX-THE INDUSTRY

    43. I think there’s something to the claim that gay men love Lil Wayne. Think about the numbers. Lady Gaga has the highest 1st week sales this year, and Wayne is about to meet, or break that mark….. coincidence? I think not. This is pop music. Not hip hop or rap, so how can you compare it to the best hip hop records out there? The only thing hip hop was the interlude and the outro. NaS killed it.
      WTT, Cole World, and Life’s Good…all day!

    44. No flow terrible delivery generally garbage lyrics (although on some RARE occasions he’s decent,) no creativity, autotune, etc. Now i sit back and watch the hater comments flood in because they can’t defend Weezy’s nonexistant skills.

    45. before ya lil wayne groupies come at me for calling me a hater.how am i a hater? cuz i dislike sumthing you like? get real faggots.Wayne isnt shit,listen to his lyrics hes trash and also if you think hes da best take notes dat he dont write his own lyrics.he has ghostwriters.wayne sucks point blank and dont bring da issue dat im hating on sumbody dats getting money.wtf does dat have to do with anything??? hate it when ya groupies say sum shit like dat.wayne has no skills watsoever and ders a million and 1 rappers who can rap circles around him anyday.Lil wayne is juss a phase,he’ll be done in a matter of years.remember it toke him 10 fucking years to be dis big.he wasent shit when he came out till 2007.dats when people started sucking him dry

    46. Great for wayne! his album is pretty good. he gotta couple suspect moments but he got some gems. dont see it being better than ‘throne’ or ‘red’ but dem shits just came out. let dem joints soak in & see me in Nov or Dec.

    47. i hope you not letting these record sells think he the best rapper alive because it’s to many rappers that sold more records than him.wayne has 7 gold albums jay-z has ZERO GOLD ALBUMS JAY-Z ALBUMS always go platinum. his earley albums where weak he just started selling recors on the carter 3 how long he been rapping? DMX will crush lil wayne album sales so how can wayne be even close to THE THRONE haha he just started to get hot.you wayne fans must be on that purple shit his skill level is not even close to jay-z you know how many 5mic albums or 5 star albums jay-z has cmon yall got them tights on fuckin up your thought process.pick any classic album you want from jay-z and it will smash any wayne album you call a classic.since you like NUMBERS He has sold approximately 50 MILLION albums worldwide, while receiving THIRTEEN GRAMMY AWARDS 12 number one ALBUMS IN A ROW 17 gold or multi PLATINUM SINGLES and thats just the music no need to talk about his business ventures its crazy. if you want you can give wayne a HIGH CHAIR but a THRONE hahah HELL NOOOO

    48. Hip-hop is winning, numbers don’t lie. WTT broke the record. C4 broke the record that broke the record. If Detox ever drops expect the same bitches.

    49. ’11 in a row bill russell rings…nigga i got 5 more rings than michael jordan had…Elvis has left da building now im on da beatles ass’ DAT NIGGA JAY INCREDIBLE!!!

    50. how does this dude have any credibility left after that “rock” album? And don’t give me that creative expression shit. He’s really not that good.

      All this sales record means is a record amount of people purchased a garbage album off itunes this past week.

      THAT’S IT

      1. for those two instances, people became smarter and decided not to purchase bad music, but now they have progressively gotten dumber and bought into Wayne’s shit again.

      2. They didn’t flop, they only went gold. Half a mill in sales isn’t bad at all these days. Most fans buy their favorite artists discs even if it may not be that good. They have loyalty. Another thing is that the younger generation have been bumping to rappers rapping about skinny jeans. Wayne would certainly be king after listening to that. Hov and Ye would not be in their interest because it’s ahead of their time. IMO

    51. Some serious numbers for Wayne… Good for him… Surprising it doubled the throne.. Good look for him. Not sure the throne wud be estatic about this… At the end of the day, that’s what it’s about… sales—> numbers. Even uncle Jay wud admit

      Youtube.com/jaydoubl

    52. I’m not a fan of Lil Wayne but I’m glad his album is selling this much!! It shows us that hiphop is still alive. He’s doing better then Lady Gaga would have if she didn’t drop the price to 99 Cents…. His singles haven’t even done that well and he’s selling like this! This dude is probably the biggest artist in music! AND HE’S A BLACK RAPPER! I hate Lil Waynes music but I’m proud and happy as hell for him. I hope he sells a million!

    53. Its a fact that some music camps buy their artist albums to help push sound scan numbers. Considering Wayne didn’t put nearly as much effort into keeping the album from going viral its safe to say this nigga brought all 300,000 copies if I had the download a week before the release date. The album sucks bottom line and Nas and Busta killed Wayne on his own shit. The Cash Money camp is week as hell.

    54. I know for all those who buy this album if you could give album back, these number wouldnt look the same trust me, the album is Wack

    55. Wowzers!! he’s due to go platnum in about 10 days!I guess some of you old Jay z fans need to recognize I’ts all about the young generation right now! Young Moula Baaaaaaby!! lol

      1. 50 million records sold vs wayne ahah and dont use the word MONEY with wayne and jay-z in the same sentance it looks foolish

      2. deez niggas hyped wayne finally selling records after 11 fucking years.he wasent shit before da carter 3 and he sure aint shit now

    56. the THRONE about to go on tour FOR 3 MONTHS hahah wayne cant tour that shity album not unless he bring nas,tech,busta,3 stacks,and bun b with him LMAO

      1. 3 months thats it? wayne been on tour since he came home hes on his second leg of the tour right now

        its more like watch C4 out sale the WTT

      2. I guarantee you that they announce the launch of a world tour offa the hype he is gonna get off of this album… U will see the announcement on HipHopDX soon lol

      3. You sound real stupid kid , Lil wayne couldn’t fill up all the seats in a philly concert. Whereas Jay and Kanye sold out in minutes tickets ranging from $150-300.

    57. oh well the gay community wanted a rapper so he sold out kissing men and wearing tights he straight singing on the album wow

    58. FUN FACT: Lloyd Bank’s debut album HFM 1 and Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter 1 was released on the same week in 2004.

      Banks was #1 selling 465K
      Wayne was #5 selling 116K

      ….look at em now lol

      1. tru that, banks n wayne are the same age n also ver very talented. difference now is Wayne is steering the cashmoney young money ship while 50 is steering the gunit ship straight into an ice berg but banks is too “loyal” to jump ship smh

    59. KISSE MEN AND WEARS FEMALE CLOTHING this nigga the new boy george dont diss hammer like that that shit going down in rap history THE first rapper to kiss a man in public then wears female pants HAHAH todays youth MY ERA>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>JEGGINS LMAO

    60. i can careless about the beef between jay and wayne BUT i find it funny that it was jiggaman that coined men lie, women lie but numbers dont and wayne crushed his throne albume. shoutout wayne for that. shoutout jay for his longevity. fuck kanye.

    61. Skinny jeans are gay that’s the truth bitch not a diss/ you can try to get me back but I gurantee you’ll miss/ your words are not even half real you live in a fucking fantasy/ fake blood, fake thug, u wish u was as real as half of me/ its so sad to see this is what all the kids are following/ they believe your nursery rhyme punch lines you brain washing all of them/ its lunch time, u look like u had some baby and you swallowed all of him/ we know you not a spitter but a man kisser you didn’t beat around the bush and you love to trim/ look at them do do locks look like they ain’t been washed in 5 days/ look at that big mouth I bet you can suck a mean cock more than 5 ways/ lepercauhn jump back on your skateboard and roll away/ we know the truth, that Dick hit a tooth pulled out and let it spray/ no accident, but u tried to cover it up before the vma/ you can’t take away the itch bitch everybody know you been gay/ no punchline but I’m right on time to take you out that’s a date/ haha that’s funny money let’s keep it young and call it rape/ Hell we can put it on tape if your dumb ass still misunderstood/ just remember bitch at the end of the day its good.

    62. The stupidity of people amazes me i tell them lil wayne is not that great (I think hes pretty much wack as fuck) then I tell them artist that are just as good such as jadakiss, cassidy, canibus, ludacris, fabolous, outkast, slaughterhouse etc and they tell me those guys suck are you kidding, hip hop fans these days are brainless and sheep whoever the tv and radio says is hot they ride its dick like a fuckin pornstar

      1. how by sales? the album sucks wtt will go platinum and jay-z will be in the forbes top earnings list AGAIN because if think carter 4 is a better album than wtt you need to whipe the cum of your mouth

    63. You kids today are so fucking dumb, so fucking stupid. C4 sucks. It got like 4 good songs on there, the rest is all mixtape verses and ‘meh’ tracks. theres no way it should be selling like this. At least C3 was a good product, but C4 man is it lackluster.The WHOLE of watch the throne is still on my IPOD, and I bang it erday. while only the 4 tracks from C4 I like remained. When did C4 come out, oh yea this week, WTT dam near a month ago. That tells u sumthin.

      1. nah man they dont want to talk music they want to talk sales but dont wantt to bring up real numbers just this album numbers it makes them feel good but really he dont sale that many records so they must be on that syrup shit

    64. 10 years in the game 1 album sold over 3mil and he should get a throne and be called the best rapper alive gtfoh JUVI WAS cash money dont ever forget that not wayne they fucked over juvi and mannie fresh so wayne stayed with his baby like the fag kissin tight wearing bitch he is SMH nigga sold 1 album over 3mil and he the best rapper alive ahahahah so dmx must be GOD to this nigga because x sales is crazy

    65. what the fuck is these wayne fans bringing up sales numbers for WITH jay-z HAHAH he did WAYNE CAREER 4times already jay alraedy at the finish line these young kids be on everything.Syrup. Painkillers. Cigarette. Weed. Hennessy. Vodka. lil waynes dick hahaha ha

    66. i hope you not letting these record sells think he the best rapper alive because it’s to many rappers that sold more records than him.wayne has 7 gold albums jay-z has ZERO GOLD ALBUMS JAY-Z ALBUMS always go platinum. his earley albums where weak he just started selling recors on the carter 3 how long he been rapping? DMX will crush lil wayne album sales so how can wayne be even close to THE THRONE haha he just started to get hot.you wayne fans must be on that purple shit his skill level is not even close to jay-z you know how many 5mic albums or 5 star albums jay-z has cmon yall got them tights on fuckin up your thought process.pick any classic album you want from jay-z and it will smash any wayne album you call a classic.since you like NUMBERS He has sold approximately 50 MILLION albums worldwide, while receiving THIRTEEN GRAMMY AWARDS 12 number one ALBUMS IN A ROW 17 gold or multi PLATINUM SINGLES and thats just the music no need to talk about his business ventures its crazy. if you want you can give wayne a HIGH CHAIR but a THRONE hahah HELL NOOOO.true story

    67. Not surprising. Rebirth went gold and I Am Not A Human is nearly plat and it released with ZERO promotion. The only rapper who has a better fanbase than Wayne is Eminem.

      With that said, as we all know, sales have never been indicative of quality. This CD is a prime example.

      “Call me Tunechi or Young Tuna Fish”
      “I don’t give a f**k. You faker them some titties, you get titty f**ked.”
      “have it your way…Burger King”
      “When it Waynes it Pours”
      “Boy Im goin in…..like my water broke”
      “I do it for the money…man I am such a hooker”
      How to Love (from the same guy who We be Steady Mobbin and Birdman Jr)
      And the often repeated “Weezy F, and the F is for….”
      “Tools on deck…. Home Depot”

    68. Yeah that’s not surprising when you have a lot of young white girls who don’t know shit about hip hop with access to the computers. This album sucks dick and everybody knows it. I don’t care if it does will smith, mc hammer or vanilla ice numbers it’s garbage. “Real” hip hop world thinks waynes trash and until he gets respect from us he’ll never never ever be among the greats. Come on people we all know young money and cash money bought back 300,000 copies from retailers. They know perception is everything, they figure if people see that it’s selling they’ll want to go out and buy the album to see what the fuss is about. Plus is a distraction they’re trying to take from the 95% negative reactions.

    69. shit game had hella promotion he didnt crack 100k the nigga took over several websites he promoted the dead album for three years and 60 mixtapes

    70. What a disgrace to hip hop.

      Dudes like Elzhi, Crooked I (and the rest of SH), Diabolic, Tonedeff, CunninLynguists, Nas, Roots, Talib, Common, Mos, Pharoahe Monch, G Rap, Masta Ace, Louis Logic, One Be Lo, Brother Ali, Apathy, Copywrite, Juice, Percee-P, Blu to name a few of MANY should be selling a ton, not this clown who has 1 good verse out of every 20 and is just grinding on the ear drums.

      Carter 2 was solid and he has some clever lines @ times, but almost a million in one week for THIS!?!?

      God I miss 90-2002

    71. Skinny jeans are gay that’s the truth bitch not a diss/ you can try to get me back but I gurantee you’ll miss/ your words are not even half real you live in a fucking fantasy/ fake blood, fake thug, u wish u was as real as half of me/ its so sad to see this is what all the kids are following/ they believe your nursery rhyme punch lines you brain washing all of them/ its lunch time, u look like u had some baby and you swallowed all of him/ we know you not a spitter but a man kisser you didn’t beat around the bush and you love to trim/ look at them do do locks look like they ain’t been washed in 5 days/ look at that big mouth I bet you can suck a mean cock more than 5 ways/ lepercauhn jump back on your skateboard and roll away/ we know the truth, that Dick hit a tooth pulled out and let it spray/ no accident, but u tried to cover it up before the vma/ you can’t take away the itch bitch everybody know you been gay/ no punchline but I’m right on time to take you out that’s a date/ haha that’s funny money let’s keep it young and call it rape/ Hell we can put it on tape if your dumb ass still misunderstood/ just remember bitch at the end of the day IT’S GOOD

    72. wayne might not be the best rapper and the Carter 4 might be an average rap album but the nigga done sold. dont hate on a man for doing what he does. you might not like him but that dont mean 300,000 other itune downloaders shud too. heck i dont like tech nine but i dont go posting hate messages on blogs bout him. he is making his money and props to him. some people like country music and some Hip Hop. its just how life be. now stop hating n get on ur grind.

    73. nad meets evil didn’t like recovery because of the nigga on the front cover ! EMINEM fans don’t support house niggas who eat from a white man’s plate. i hate house niggas like royce da 666, dumb 12, gay united, dr dead !!!

    74. bad neets evil didn’t sell like recovery because of the nigga on the front cover ! EMINEM fans don’t support house niggas who eat from a white man’s plate. i hate house niggas like royce da 666, dumb 12, gay united, dr dead !!!

      1. personally I’m still bumping Bad Meets Evil in the car, and don’t like Watch the Throne at all except for a song or two. But the real reason Bad Meets Evil won’t do Eminem type numbers is because it’s under the name Bad Meets Evil, not Eminem and Royce present Hell the Sequel. Most of the world doesn’t know he ever had a duo with Royce and are completely unaware of it now. This was an album for his hardcore audience

      1. props for what? Having his team buying thousands of copies? It’s not like he loses a lot of money doing that.. since he gets royalties

    75. Carter IV is a piece of shit album. Draught 3 Mixtape was 1000% better. YMCMB is done. Used to love all of them.

    76. This doesn’t make sense at all, something is fishy about this. Didn’t Baby say he was pushing for a million his first week? Something is up for real. They are definitely cheating and manipulating with the numbers. You must be living under a rock if you don’t think young money and cash money are playing with the numbers. When have you ever heard a movie get nothing but bad reviews and become number one in the box office? Answer never. People hope you realize that soundcan doesn’t track where the sales are coming from. So anybody can take a million dollars and buy their albums back. That way you push up the sales, so when people see your doing huge numbers there goes more sales for you.

      1. yep….go to every store and get the 200-300 copies they have on hand…best buy, target, etc….oh, without looking suspicious too…and go on iTunes with thousands of different cards that would TAKE AT LEAST A WEEK TO DO ALONE JUST CREATING ACCOUNTS…STFU YOU SOUND LIKE A DAMN FOOL.

    77. Didn’t Jay-Z get accused of buy his own album (Kingdom Come) when estimates started coming out that he was gonna sell close to 900k?

      1. Yeah but it sold 680,000 copies and with the anticipation for his comeback that wasn’t to far off at all. Jay averages 400-plus in first week sales for every album. So that’s how you know people are actually buying the albums, whereas wayne’s numbers are suspicious.

    78. Hmmm…..

      The Illiteracy on Dx is borderline sickening, I swear.
      First, first week sales only mean a certain artist has a huge fanbase. All the artist fans will definitely rush out the first week to copped their individual fav album(s)

      Lady Gaga’s Born This Way debuted with 1.1million about 4months ago, but the total sales of that album as of now is barely above 1.5m.

      Adele’s “21” Debuted with 300k+, but that album is currently heading for 3x platinum. And Worldwide sales of that album is above 10m. Lady Gaga sold more than 2m copies worldwide in her first week, but worldwide total so far is just 4.5m.

      Eminem’s Recovery debuted with 741k, C3 debuted with 1m. Recovery is already 4x platinum(1year+ old). C3(Almost 3years old) is still around 3.4m total.

      Slim Shady Lp debuted with 200k+, but SSLP is already 5x platinum…

      Bruno Mars debuted with about 150k+, but his album is already 1.5m. MBDTF did 450k+ in the first week, but still around 1.2m total.

      All am saying is, first week sales is no big deal
      C4 might do a milli first week and eventually drop 80% in the second week.
      My predictions for C4
      W1—-900k+
      W2—-200k+
      W3—-100k+
      W4—-50+
      W5—-30+

      Max C4 will do is double platinum !

      1. Eminem doesn’t put out as much music as wayne that is a major reason that his album continues to sell more over time

      2. and obviously cIV sales percentage would drop 80% cuz most people went out and bought it week 1 haha come on man think a little… artists who sell 400k week one and 400k week too didnt lose any sales percentage but they still less than a mill…

      3. Eminem has a really loyal fanbase that has stood by over the years and Wayne has only become a superstar in recent times. Plus Eminem had two hit singles that kept him going. Love the Way You Lie really boosted sales and kept the momentum going.

        Bottom line is comparing Em to Wayne as far as sales go is pointless.

    79. I have read so many negative and positive comments on this page…..and must say this not a surprise. Why are people still live in the past? Don’t act like Shawn Carter has not made a subpar CD. Yes he has and it has sold millions. So why not give another artist the same do. Wayne and Shawn are in different lanes and all nay-sayers need to recognize that. Last comment if you don’t like it don’t listen to it. It is still hip hop and your negative thoughts will not change that.

    80. If you noticed, Hell: The Sequel And Recovery declines nothing more than 10% every week. Shows how consistent the sales of the album is. Some albums declines at least 60% weekly

    81. i all bullshit. this nigga buying his albums. he didnt have nearly the buzz that kanye/jay shit or game did. i think its amazing that after two of the biggest artists in hip-hop history break an itunes record…its followed by up somebody who nobody even cared for the release of his album? come on man. this nigga pullin the old clive davis, tommy matolla, p diddy shit.

      1. its followed by up somebody who nobody even cared for the release of his album?

        OH REally. Most sites had tha carter iv as the most anticipated album this year, if not a top 5 spot. That right there is an understatement.

    82. His fans have been anticipating this album for three years! So of course they are going to run out in buy it in large droves. The feedback of the product they wayne put out is very very bad. So with all the negative reviews and criticisms, wayne will be hit very hard his second week. All the disappointments won’t show till the weeks after. That’s why even Mack Maine said first week is no big deal, it’s the weeks after that they’re worried about.

    83. baby paid for the albums fuck wayne and cash money this album is trash drake only wrote two songs on the album the rest was the [mix tape weezy]

    84. Me & My Lover just butt fucked to the whole Wayne album, it’s sooo hot, then I put some Drizzy on & we switched postions, we fucking love these guys.

    85. Skinny jeans are gay that’s the truth bitch not a diss/ you can try to get me back but I gurantee you’ll miss/ your words are not even half real you live in a fucking fantasy/ fake blood, fake thug, u wish u was as real as half of me/ its so sad to see this is what all the kids are following/ they believe your nursery rhyme punch lines you brain washing all of them/ its lunch time, u look like u had some baby and you swallowed all of him/ we know you not a spitter but a man kisser you didn’t beat around the bush and you love to trim/ look at them do do locks look like they ain’t been washed in 5 days/ look at that big mouth I bet you can suck a mean cock more than 5 ways/ lepercauhn jump back on your skateboard and roll away/ we know the truth, that Dick hit a tooth pulled out and let it spray/ no accident, but u tried to cover it up before the vma/ you can’t take away the itch bitch everybody know you been gay/ no punchline but I’m right on time to take you out that’s a date/ haha that’s funny money let’s keep it young and call it rape/ Hell we can put it on tape if your dumb ass still misunderstood/ just remember bitch at the end of the day IT’S GOOD

    86. Still waiting to hear one of you Wayne lovers explain his behavior:

      Kisses his male friend on the lips
      Tatoos his male friend that he kisses on his arm
      Calls his male friend that he kisses “Daddy”
      Tells us that he fucks his male friend —> Weezy F.(Fucks) Baby

      1. What’s this got anything to do with the sales? Damn, the extent of which haters will go to justify their hate is shocking!

        You do know that you are giving the guy you hate free promo, right?

      2. wayne kissin men wearing womens pantts.dont you ever disrespect pimp c with that bullshit .2pac was a ballet dancer lookin for thug love how you doin lmao

    87. First week numbers are great. But I’ve already heard disappointment about the album. If it doesn’t sell well in the weeks after (i.e. if Wayne goes no 2 the second week), then there is a problem.

    88. why you all mad for?!?! coz your most hated rapper might go a milli in this year where its almost impossible. hate = more hype

    89. actually the album got average reviews i looked it up most said he could do better and hes getting lazy with his word play which is true this should be his last album because carter VI will be way worse i liked more carter 4 songs then watch the throne thats me and yea we get it wayne did kiss baby its gay and we shouldnt act like it didnt happen but denis rodman dresses like a woman and wears lipstick he said he aint gay ppl first week sales dont matter but when an album costs 10.99 and sells a million the company has made its money back who cares about the rest? if baby does buy waynes album that sucks and ruins the sales but think about it alot of other ethnicities other then black like wayne and they buy albums so all the white dudes and girls that like black music will buy and thats alot of ppl

    90. This album went hard damn stop hatin, I don’t like soulja boy maybe that’s why I don’t look at posts about him or his music or care about his sales. But yet all of u are here on behalf of his nuts. 2 strong words hop off

    91. why everybody on here crying so much if u dont like lil wayne dont listen to him . but u listen to him and complain that he sucks and how much u always hated him but yet u still take time out of ur day listen to his music u must like sumthin about him to do that . and okay we get it jay z sold over 50mil albums but he dont sell like that no more so shut da fuck up wit that and he’s that good go listen to him den since he’s ur fav rapper but no yall listen to wayne cuz yall know he’s ur fav but wanna sound cool agreeing wit des old heads get over it its not da 90s no more nas, wu tang, jada,red alot of dem 90s niggas still rap but yall dont support dey music so dey dont sell but wayne go true fans who do support his real shit

    92. ok now i aint a wayne fan n i dnt hate on tha guy eitha, actually i stopped listenin to his muzik afta tha C2 but i decided to give C4 a listen and it wasnt bad. a step up from tha C3 IMO.

    93. Is everyone on here. Sucking either hov or weezy dick? I appreciate. Both artist for there what they’ve contributed to hip hop ass a culture and music genre. Both of em suspect in real life but as far as music they’ve both helped keep the heart beating on a art form we all know is almost deceased. Resonable doubt ill dynasty ill blueprint ill american gangsta ill….. carter ill carter2 ill carter3 ill and to me carter4 slick too stop suckn dick pickn sides and get money. Everyone. On da internet hatin y’all jus as “homo” as birdman and wayne kissing. If not gayer

    94. Wow, i can’t believe the amount of hate on this site. Yes i don’t listen to Wayne either but c’mon people, give credit where it’s due. It’s funny majority of the people hating are Jay fans. Jay and Kanye released WTT and even though Game’s RED album was better than it, WTT still sold way more than RED, same way WTT is way better than C4 and yet it sells better than WTT, accept it people C4 is selling.

      Now only ignorant fools will think Birdman bought most of the albums because like someone said unless they got over 300,000 credit cards to buy it on itunes then ya’ll can shut the fuck up. It’s against the law to buy your own shit and not make the market fair, it doesn’t make sense.

      Jay said numbers dont lie so there it is and before the Jay haters come at me with the facts of “Jay has sold more albums than Wayne bla bla”…. This has nothing to do with how many you sold in your career, it’s about how many you are selling, maybe in due time Wayne will eventually sell more like Jay.

      I’m not a fan of Wayne and never will be but give the guy credit, whether it’s 13yr olds or 20yr olds buying the album, the album is still selling, so just deal with it haters!

    95. Lil Wayne, Kanye, Jay-Z,…. do ya’ll see a pattern here??? Yup they all worship the devil!!! They are ALL members of the same group of Lucipharians, they are ALL bi-sexual… they are ALL part of a system thats trying to destroy the world!

      These indivduals are as greedy, selfish, and evil as they come… Y do you idiots defend them?? Ya’ll think Jay or Ye give a fizuck about you??? Really… next time rents do… hittem up see if they help your asss…. stop supporting these evil muthafuckersssss!

      WAKE-UP!!

    96. I laugh at people saying that cash money is buying all the units to make wayne #1. You gotta realize that dude is commercial. Its not like Games 100k loyal fans. With joints like “lollypop”, dude got grandmas and shit buying his albums. hahahaha.

      1. Lmao!!!! Talking behind a computer screen without showing face? Sounds like a bitch to me….. I will invite you to oklahoma to come see me…. I promise you that i will treat you with gratitude and respect lol…..Come on white devil i can make the soup you just bring the cracker…

    97. LOL BIRDMAN SHOULD BE ASHAMED .. BUYING A WHOLE BUNCH OF WAYNES ALBUM.. THEY PURCHASED QUITE A FEW OF THEIR OWN ALBUM JUST TO HAVE SOMETHING TO TALK ABOUT.. A DAMN SHAME I TELL YA , A DAMN SHAME

      1. Jason, what is your fucking point?? Lots of things are fucking federal ofenses but people still do it. Wow, what a dumb fuck you are, more stupid uneducated Wayne dick & butt lovers.

      2. YEA JASON SELLING DRUGS AND VIDEOTAPING COPS WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT IS A FEDERAL OFFENSE ALSO HAVING H.I.V. AND PURPOSELY HAVING UNPROTECTED SEX WITH YOUR MALE FRIENDS, BUT YOU STILL DO IT ANYWAY JACKASS.. FUCK OFF. THESE RAPPERS CAN FILTER MONEY ANY WHICH A WAY TO PURCHASE THEIR OWN MUSIC, ITS NOT THAT HARD STUPID. I STILL RESPECT EVERYONE WHO IS DOING SOMETHING BETTER THAN GOING TO WORK EVERYDAY AND BARELY PAYING THEIR BILLS, I WAS JUST SAYING NIGGAS PURCHASED SOME OF THEIR OWN ALBUMS ON THIS ONE, BOTTOM LINE.

    98. I went to the music store to find a few cd’s and I noticed this wack mofo has a lot of dickriders, stans, etc because they had his cd’s in places it shouldn’t be… I was in the Jazz section looking for a cd and his shit was there in front of a Jazz artist’s cd, and even when I was looking for some rap albums they were in front of other artists’ shit…

      Either the store employees are on his nuts or one of his stans reorganized a little.. Folks need to stop buying crap music and support the real hip hop ish… His stans are some of the dumbest mofo’s on this planet……

    99. What I am trying to figure out is if you hate wayne, why come here? Its not like you affecting him in anyway. Also, y’all should be happy a black man is doing great.

      Also y’all get off, wayne, jay-z and kanye. Y’all selling on some gud albums.

      Wiz Khalifa, Lupe Faisco, Bad Meets Evil, R.e.d Album, Finally Famous.

      More to Come from Drake, Young Jeezy and More

      1. i’m happy for anybody waking up doing what they dreamed of, my life sucks and i work so hard. maybe i’m not working smart enough, i’m sad now

      2. Also, I do not give a single fuck that a “black man” is doing great, why do you “black people” always have to say shit like that, fucking GET OFF THAT SHIT!! it’s fucking 2011.

      3. this has to be the funniest shit i’ve ever seen, that dude honestly does look like some nappy ass WNBA bitch nigga

      4. Lmao!!!! good lord i swear i be getting under people’s skin…. Now i go to look at comments and what do i see(andre cooper lol) I can now say that i have fans smh….. Let me know how my dick taste after i ray charles you….. Killyourself

    100. i’m happy for anybody waking up doing what they dreamed of, my life sucks and i work so hard. maybe i’m not working smart enough, i’m sad now.

    101. THE STATE OF HIPHOP/RAP HAS REACHED AN ALL TIME LOW…when the general public invests money in artists who only make words rhyme without the presence of coherence and relevance. Look folks…lil weezy is only as artistic as the tight jeans he wears with his ass hanging out which is not very masculine might I add and definitely not “gangster”! Hip hop and the rap genres are suffering bitterly at the hands of individuals who pose as artists. As bad as the economy is, which is why all record sales are suffering, people find cause in buying lil wayne’s music only because he is deemed as being popular. There are rappers out such as Eminem, Game, Nas, Scarface, and Jay Z who constanly rip microphones to shreds with their solid skills of coherently telling fascinating stories their reality and how they see the worls as we know it through their rhymes!! This is the very essence of what we came to love about hip hop and the rap game. You need to stop supporting artists who dont take the time to at least bring you nothing but their very best offerings, in terms of music, when they try to convince you to spend your money to make them rich and live in oppulence while the majority of our society lives mediocre at best. All the comments on here that say or imply that lil wayne is the best when it comes to rapping is apparently unaware and misguided as to what real skill sounds like on the microphone!!

    102. 356 post on story about sales. But let yawl tell it, “I don’t give a fuck about sales”. Bullshit you don’t.

    103. you trying to compare wayne with jay-z haah sales or skills wayne=FAIL shit 50 cent killed wayne career sales with one album haah

    104. And to think Carter 4 could’ve went platinum in one week if wayne had a stronger 1st single. It’s still a very good look. I hear the carter 5 will be the last and final Carter. Also I hope you lames don’t start that Baby bought all the albums shit. Don’t you fools know that no one buys their own CD’s. Cuz if they did they won’t be getting all that money that they spent on those albums completely back. They will only get a small recording artist’s percentage back for that money spent. Who would be dumb enough to do that.

      1. Do you think that matters to someone who just bought a 8 million dollar Maybach? Don’t be a dumb fuck, think about it.

    105. This album sucked. Why would i even waste money to buy when i downloaded it 2 weeks before release and was disappointed.

    106. I had a debate with a friend of mine who’s into Weezy. I bumped this album (streamed, thank God I didn’t purchase) and showed him corny stupid suspect lines that are littered throughout Tha Carter IV. All he and most fans of Weezy can say are sales, its as if mans defending the dude are making the money themselves.

      Last time I checked, the amount of money or sales an artist had do not make an album more enjoyable to me.

      Also, when your two best tracks on YOUR album don’t feature YOU, there’s a problem.

      I’m not knocking his hustle, I’m knocking the lyrics and skill on the album.

      1. so you really wanna say that Wayne fans only point at his sales? Thats 90% of what Jigga been talking about since day 1. Yall can’t ball on my level, still spending money from 88, more money more cash more hos, yall ain’t got my baby money. c’mon sun. i agree wayne isn’t the yin and yang of what it means to be lyrical. but I do give that man his propers. I believe Wayne’s legacy is one that will be best appreciated when it has come full circle. I’m east coast. my ipod is 90s and select joints since. but u gotta recognize that this man is indeed the rep of a demographic that DOES NOT identify Jayz as their everything like so many others do. and most people respect jay more for being rich and getting richer than his actual prowess. he’s stylish yes. he makes shit fly. he’s COOL. but that doesn’t make him the greatest and he knows it. which is why he constantly refers to his number 1 albums and how much money he has.

      2. Honestly man, I’m all for respecting Wayne’s career. He’s to the point where he sells records and that’s good for him and his team. He’s got a strong following so that speaks for his ability to remain relevant for the long haul. HOWEVER, I have no clue where anyone can put up the argument that he is worth a comparison to Jay-Z. Every time I read articles, comments, and other media placing those two in the same weight class it truly disappoints me. Jay-Z and Nas are (for the most part) the last two relics of hip-hop’s greatest (and arguably most dangerous) era. Argue that 2Pac didn’t like neither one of them, but he did goes as far to acknowledge them – something I can’t see Wayne getting from Pac. Big was one of Jay-Z’s best friends (and Nas at one point too) so we don’t even need to do that. And honestly, Wayne is associated with a fake movement from the No Limit era – something you don’t hear anyone mention. Master P and the rest of No Limit had blueprinted and took to action exactly what Cash $ ended up doing; with the same roots to match (New Orleans). Like I said, I respect Wayne’s success – and from time to time he has shown his ability to be a great MC. But witty lines over enough time eventually end up boring and that’s the big reason most people don’t like Carter IV. This about the battle rap game – alive and well still huh? Wrong, because many people aren’t as impressed by that as much as they used to be. Funny, witty lines are only worth a short time of most people’s attention before they will ask someone to get serious and speak with substance. And as far as that Blood shit go – yeah, Pac would’ve cut that shit out – as far as “on wax” goes – if he was still around; pussy movements really. I’m waiting for our young generation to grow up and acknowledge that there is a time when your mind wants to get more from their appetite for hip-hop than Wayne has been dishing out. Best of luck to all artists – get money regardless. But never expect to have a bulletproof legacy if what you do isn’t bulletproof to begin with (kissing old men in the mouth, wearing tights, skater/rocker front, etc.). Jay as well as many others have already said it “…So ni*** in a glass house should not throw stones…”

      3. come on son! jay is NOT stylish. that n1gga cant dress for shyt. i dnt give a flying f*&k what any1 says that n1gga need a stylist and B aint it cuz she need one too. u might hav paper but that does NOT mean u got style. everything else i agree with but style….N. that nigga be lookin funny in alotof shyt thta he wear. AND weezy better than him LOL.. go head be son #3 and tell me why u mad son

      4. @room2roam – Your reply doesn’t even approach the conversation with a legitimate argument. Jay-Z’s clothes? That’s what you choose to attack? Really? Especially after Wayne showed up in certified women’s pants at the VMA’s like it was okay. Whatever, if you are choosing to side with Wayne on that one, that’s impossible for me to make my point. Figure out which Wayne wagon you’re on and why your in it. I’ll check his music out from time to time but I can’t defend this dude against anything he does (nor can I for Jay-Z). But I won’t make up some weird ass lines and then talk about “c’mon son” just cuz…? Yeah, who knows. Truthfully – grow up.

      5. @j-dub i was not “attacking” him just giving my opinion on one of the comments in the original comment (read again if you missed it). we all have opinions and as far as wayne’s style, it’s worse than jay imo. i could care less about any of their attire, again it was just an opinion.

    107. DeWayne’s got a little dick, I used to fuck him when he was baby’s little “Toy”, he don’t fuck for very long either.

    108. jay-z and kanye are fake anyway… makaveli sayz jay a bitch… and if kanye was in the game when makaveli was around kanye would have never made his lame azz tracks with katy perry and shiitt

      1. rite on the money. frauds like jay-z and kanye can get away with this faggot bullshit since real rappers aint around no more. Shit, think what Tupac would think of snoop doing a shitty dance track!

      2. lmao, they all fake any damn way! wayne just knew to expand to the suburban kids (i aint sayin no skin color i aint goin there, im sayin suburban) so thats why he sellin more

    109. Dude had television commercials for his album. Of course he should have more sales than albums that don’t. Last cd I saw being sold over tv was Jock Jams and the NOW series…. talk about a real commercial artist. Haha word play right there ladies.

    110. Its pathetic how idiots go buy this guys albums.. WTT and Carter 4 are garbage, people have no taste these days The R.E.D Album was alright not the best but better than this shit album.

    111. Man niggas dont even be buying shit for the music LMAO… I’m cool I got that new Wayne. lol Science teachers bumping that new Wayne trying stay down. fuck dude… its all on hip hop though. Its still breathing as long as we got Kendrick Cole Drake etc.

    112. Real talk…why is it that when people compare rappers they talk about record sales and not content…this is without a doubt a bad album…but d**k riding fans only argument is how many records sold…and they say this without realizing the big picture…you just got punked by your favorite rapper!!!(dumbasses) I’m a big Kanye and Jay-z fan but i’m not gonna hesitate to say the album was wack..and not up to par with their other ones…It’s always the garbage rappers too that people want to support..the ones that blow millions of dollars at the strip club just to let everybody see when they could use the money to find a cure for hiv or herpes(which they probly have)

    113. I’m surprised both even sold that much; most people tell me that they just download that shit of a web site or something. I personally didn’t think both were good enough to download.

      1. it must not be garbage if it sold more then cock nation u garbage might couldn’t afford it lol dumb ass people

    114. Wow, I guess you need to market to 12 year old kids or some shit, terrible ratings but dumb ma fuckaz still buy the shit??? Oh yea, and you gotta wear girls leopard print pants too… fuckin homo ass rappers

      1. And look who is the top selling black hip hop artist in America right now. Not an intelligent, well spoken, well kept artist. But a gremlin with dreads, platinum teeth and tight sagging pants below his but cheeks. America loves seeing a guy like this win. Record execs love pumping out this kind of ignorance. They don’t want to see the former I mentioned succeed.

      2. u might wear tight pants to when ya’ll haters get his money then ya’ll could talk shit but ya’ll will never see it so stop fucking hating i know he laugh at ya’ll duck asses

      1. No it’s about time people wake up and let false rappers brainwash the youth and hip hop followers…People got to start being real this dude raps about NOTHING….not a dam thing and people buy into it…and he’s gonna sell more than all the good rappers Common, Lupe, probly more than J cole and Jay electronica etc…..mannnnn gtfo..ALL THE REAL hip hop fans need to stand up…dam right im hating

    115. How much you wanna bet Birdman spend at least a milli on copping 100,000 of those records. No wonder that dragon ball z headed muhfugga can’t pay the note on his Bentley. But I guess this crooked business move will pay off since it not only gives weezy bragging rights and he gets a percentage of his money back. This album is straight trash though, thats coming from a lil wayne fan too. Lyrically it’s turrrrrible. and for whoever is mentioning watch the throne. that album is ahead of it’s time. knuckle head bastards

      1. u is one fucking hater no he didn’t it he made his numbers from real fans gtf u don’t even hve that money so why u worried new orleans/miami ymcmb

      2. hah my point exactly. grow the fuck up. if you took that shit personal then you’re a clown. your jeggings must be too tight. let that shit breathe son. and the way birdman blows his money, why you think cash money is getting sued all the time for not paying their producers. noone’s hatin. i guess you skipped the part where i said i was a weezy fan. and what the fuck i gotta be worried about? its clear you dont know how i’m livin. ignorant bitch ha haaaa birdman copped 1/4 of all those albums, the rest were probably copped with allowance money.

    116. It’s a shame to see mediocrity do so well. Birdman got crates of this album stashed somewhere. There was no way I was expecting an album of this quality to sell so much. 700K, whatever, but if we’re talking 900-950K….SMH

    117. 9 pages of hate and still almost a milli in 1st week sales. man i feel like ima part of the ymcmb click right now (except im broke).. basking in the glory of your hate and i didnt even buy the album..not yet HATUZZZ!!! lol

    118. I Just Has a Relizatioin none of this mainstream rap makes sense. I think im going to stop listening to it becuase songs with meaning create feelings which is what music is all about. Tupac and Biggie are more relevant today then most mainstream artists. Props to the rappers of today though there making their easy money from people who could care less about what is said

      1. well tupac and biggie not here and wayne don’t care if u buy it or not he still gonna make his numbers fuck wrong with ya’ll haters

    119. quote-
      Just Bein Honest:
      Not surprising. Rebirth went gold and I Am Not A Human is nearly plat and it released with ZERO promotion. The only rapper who has a better fanbase than Wayne is Eminem.

      With that said, as we all know, sales have never been indicative of quality. This CD is a prime example.

      “Call me Tunechi or Young Tuna Fish”
      â€oeI donâ€(TM)t give a f**k. You faker them some titties, you get titty f**ked.”
      â€oehave it your way…Burger King”

      “Boy Im goin in…..like my water broke”
      “I do it for the money…man I am such a hooker”
      How to Love (from the same guy who We be Steady Mobbin and Birdman Jr)
      And the often repeated “Weezy F, and the F is for….”

      1. @spittarozay fuck you nikka. If I want to “hate” I can, and will. You a bitch made faggot that has waynes dick all in his mouth

    120. To any lil’ wayne fans….if you find these lyrics creative, clever in any way, or something you yourself couldn’t come up with….I seriously think instead of evolving the human race is just becoming more primative

    121. beside the tracks i heard this was wack lyrics were soo fluckin average and the beats made me wanna cry the worst carter ever smh i want my money back lol

    122. When it comes down to it, kids spend a lot more money on music than adults. Always have.

      Watch the throne is grown folk hip hop
      Weezy is for fuckin’ 14 year olds.

    123. damn everybodys acting like Weezy reads these comments lol.

      If you don’t like the album. Buy music you do like! It’s that FUCKING simple. Everybody on these comment sections and every other hip-hop website/blog says that SECTION#80 was a classic (haven’t heard it so can’t say) but Lamar only sold like 5 thou first week. Seems to me like y’all are complaining about album sales but aren’t contributing

      Lil’ Wayne has fans that pay for his music and that’s why he’s selling. Hate it or love it

      1. Kendrick sold OUT on copies for is album he did ‘t have a enough.

        know sh1t before you say anything in the future stupid.

    124. ONLY DUMB FAGGOTS ON THIS SITE, THE ONES WHO ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS NOT BEING REAL RAP: KILL YOURSELF OR GET A LIFE!!! FIRST OFF: REAL HIP HOP DOESN’T EXIST ASIDE FROM YOUR WISHFUL THINKING IN YOUR FANTASY!!! SECOND: YOU’RE COMPLAINING WHILE DOING WHAT??? EXACTLY NOTHING!!! THE FANS OF HIM SUPPORT HIP HOP COMPARED TO LAME ASS BROKE FAGGOT FUCKS, YOU GUYS ARE THE FIRST ONES TO DOWNLOAD AN ALBUM FROM AN UNDERGROUND WHO NEEDS THE SUPPORT AND PROPBABLY SELLS 1000 COPIES, GO TO YOUTUBE AND DECLARE HIM THE BEST EVER WHILE TALKING ABOUT DUMB PEOPLE WHO DON’T KNOW THE ESSENCE OF HIP HOP! YOU ALL ARE SPENDING YOUR TIME ON AN ARTILCE FOR A PERSON YOU HATE?!?! TALK ABOUT CONTRADICITION WHILE THE REAL FANS BUY IT!!! GUESS WHAT? INVEST THIS TIME INTO YOUR FAVORITE INDIE ARTISTS WHO GETS 7 COMMENTS IN A WEEK INSTEAD OF THESE LAME ASS HATING ON SUCCESSFUL RAPPERS WHO DID IT!!! YOU PEOPLE ARE THE REASON HIP HOP IS AT AN ALL TIME LOW, NOT HIP HOP DIED, IT’S ALIVE AND WELL, THE FANS DID!!! NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH!!!

      1. I don’t think anyone compared him to an “indie artist”(Lupe, Jay Elctronica, J cole,Game etc…are not exactly underground), the disbelief is that even though its OBVIOUSLY apparent that this gremlin lookin, skinny jean wearing clown has no content and no real skill people buy his music and support him just because
        its the “cool” thing to do. You have to be a complete idiot to believe that he spent more than a month working on the album..so to all his fans you just got punked…now he can keep rapping about how much richer he is than you and never give you anything back but more of the lackluster music..Game’s album just came out and is waaayyyy better why aren’t his sales better?…because the majority of people are brainwashed into believing man kissing wayne and friends are it. have a good day and by the way your caps are on.

      2. Scrap Game out of that list and insert Kendrick Lamar. The disbelief is that even though it’s OBVIOUSLY apparent that this ugly looking, neutral in his hood wearing clown has no content and no real skill no people buy his music and support him just because
        its the “cool” thing to do. You have to be a complete idiot to believe that he spent more than a month working on the album..so to all his fans you just got punked…now he can keep rapping about how much richer he is than you, about Dre, promote violence and never give you anything back but more of the lackluster music..Kendrick’s album just came out and is waaayyyy better why aren’t his sales better?…because the majority of people are brainwashed into believing stripping, tattoo-changing gayme and frenemies are it. have a good day and by the way your caps aren’t on. You didn’t get my whole point, instead of complaining about Wanye and his fans, you should put this effort into supporting your favorite artist. Complaining without doing anything is lame as fuck and for people who are groupies and cry that their already rich, favorite artist doesn’t sell as much.

    125. Wayne’s extremely high first week numbers always leads me to question its legitimacy because his seconds week numbers are usually a drastic decrease. Im interested to see next week’s numbers

      1. 1000 hiphops fans with no knowledge about rap buying this weak shit from this squirrel-looking guy. You don’t think Kendrick would retire instantly for having these sales once. Every, I repeat, EVERY artist dreams of this. There are no sell-outs. Music is supposed to be heard.

      ============================================

      ^^^^^the realest comment ever spoken on this site about anybody or anything.

      Cudi flopped, B.O.B. flopped, Wale flopped, Slaughterhouse flopped, Pre-Lasers Lupi flopped (you know, the albums that y’all taut as the greatest pieces of art ever) just like Kendrick will flop, just like J.Cole will flop….

      These are all guys you indie, “real rap” people say you love. But instead of doing your DUTY as a supposed lover of the artform, when their records come out, you download them. LIke instantly. Youd don’t even think about it. Lupe almost retired because of the shit. J.Cole’s scared of coming out and Slaughterhouse went pop as fuck because, and only because, OF Y’AAAAAALLL…

      This has nothing to do with anybody but YOU.

      Don’t be made at Wayne’s fans because they love and support him. Don’t be made and Jay and Kanye’s fans because they love and support them.

      You should be doing the same. But instead, you’d rather shit on the Internet picture of a rapper for shits and giggles, as if he could hear you, while your favorite artist dies of hunger in the streets.

      Good job.

      1. It is true that many people don’t support good music enough and complain about it…but most of the hate especially from me is that Hip Hop fans are supporting a garbage rapper rather than being captivated by the many better rappers out there..so imagine if people were listening to these so called “indie” rappers…wayne’s fan base is obviously bigger than everybody else…so I ask you …you really think it’s because people don’t support other rappers enough or is because there’s not enough support these days for non-dumbed-down music? Have you not realized that just by making talentless music people are making a killing and guess what people support them
        thats why we have soulja boy, waka floka lil b…’cus I know that I support my favorite artists…but you do have a (small) point

      2. Actually there are rappers who come to HipHopDX.com and read the feedback on their music:I’ve talked to Royce Da 5’9 [via Twitter] who says he comes are frequently to read responses to his and other artist’s music:I also talked to Hoodfella [via Twitter] who too explained to me that he read and post here on this site so i do believe a lot of other artists visit this site:

        And listen, you’re just another stan who cares too much about albums sells:I’m pretty sure a lot of Lupe, J.Cole, Slaughterhouse, B.o.B, and Wale’s fans did go out and buy their albums but have it occurred to you that maybe Lil Wayne, Jay-Z, and Kanye just has a bigger fan-base than those guys?Did that ever run across your mind?

        They have supporters, just not as much as the established veterans:OBVIOUSLY!!!

    127. Skinny jeans are gay that’s the truth bitch not a diss/ you can try to get me back but I gurantee that you’ll miss/ your words are not even half real you live in a fucking fantasy/ fake blood, fake thug, u wish u was as real as half of me/ its so sad to see this is what all the kids are following/ they believe your nursery rhyme punch lines you brain washing all of them/ its lunch time, u look like u had some baby and you swallowed all of him/ we know you not a spitter but a man kisser you didn’t beat around the bush and you love to trim/ look at them do do locks look like they ain’t been washed in 5 days/ look at that big mouth I bet you can suck a mean cock more than 5 ways/ lepercauhn jump back on your skateboard and roll away/ we know the truth, that Dick hit a tooth pulled out and let it spray/ no accident, but u tried to cover it up before the vma/ you can’t take away the itch bitch everybody know you been gay/ no punchline but I’m right on time to take you out that’s a date/ haha that’s funny money let’s keep it young and call it rape/ Hell we can put it on tape if your dumb ass still misunderstood/ just remember bitch at the end of the day IT’S good

    128. Record sells has 0 impact on how i rate my artist:The people who are hurt by this are the people who care about record sells:Infact, i can tell you EXACTLY who they are:

      They’re those Jay-Z & Eminem stans who always say “Jay-z has Beyonce, Jay-Z has 11 number 1 albums, Jay-Z beat Nas because he went on to have a better career, Eminem is the all time leader in HipHop record sells”

      Those are the stans who are crying because REAL HipHop fans know record sells don’t mean much:It’s about the actual art:The product in itself:Carter 4 is probably the worst album of 2011 and sold the most …… PROOF TO WHAT I’M SAYING:Record sells means almost nothing:

      So the people who are butthurt by this news, are people who aren’t knowledgeable HipHop fans anyhow:

    129. its a white man’s world like pac said, & who’s album will dey buy?Wayne cus he’s more mainstream and less makin sense than Jay & Ye. any who Cole World No Blanket thats an album to buy real HIP HOP!just sayin dnt get wet!

      1. thats why most Public Enemy concerts 99% of the crowd is WHITE, same with The Roots, Ice Cube, Jedi Mind Tricks, KNaan, Nas, Lupe, Canibus

        so fuck outta here with that dumb shit coz its mostly white people buying ALL hip hop not just mainstream garbage

      2. BULLSHIT!!!! SAY TEENAGERS BOTH WHITE AND BLACK… when i hear people listening to Talib Kweli. Mos Def, Common they are usually white college liberals….don’t give me that shit

      3. lol @ wayne being more “mainstream” than kanye and hov. not sure if trolling or just very stupid. wack rapper sells, blame it on white people. i bet all 1,000 copies of that lil b shit were all bought by white kids too huh? gtfo.

    130. argue it all you like but this just pissed Jigga right off, i dont like Jay or Wayne fuck em both, but fact is all Jay cares about is creating the illusion he is great with meaningless figures and sales so this mos def hurt Jay

      of course we all think Baby bought a load of units jus like Jay bought a load of his units but at the end of the day Wayne camp did the better numbers n thats gotta piss Jay off ALOT

      side not BOTH ALBUMS SUCK

    131. What ever you you do in life you want to do to the best of your ability, THE CARTER 4 sold more than WWT , THATS WHAT ITS AALL ABOUT SALESSS, ALBUM SALEs… WAYNE CAN SELL MORE RECORDS THAN JAY AND YE COMBINED>>>>> C4 BITCH

      1. How are people not offended that a garbage album (carter 4 and WTT) is gonna sell more than any other album this year…I’m scared for HIP Hop future..Its all the fan’s of bad music

      2. wayne only has 1 multi platinum album i dont know why you idiots bring up jay-z when you talk about wayne album sells shit is gettin stupid

      3. Hip-Hop is an competitive sport! Did you read Jay’s book DECODED. The artist who make the most money is the BEST. Jay is not rapping for free.

      1. true dat either was good but his bars where just jokes but jay was really fuckin nas bitch “left condoms on your babys seat” he also punked nas on not getting his publishing all FACTS either was funny but i rather hear real shit a nigga cant deny

      2. Nas never won anything. I left condoms on your babyseat is way harder than anything a diss track could ever reach. Ether aimed at the disrespect route and Jay came back 20 times that hard.

    132. all i gotta say is cant nobody hate the nigga cause he sell records with the music he put out if u aint a fan of him thats you cause its millions of other mutha fuckas that is so why would yo comments matter.

    133. Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

      TELL UR FAV RAPPER WHO IS NOT SELLING/MAJOR
      THE ABOVE. THANK YOU

      – u hate bc u dont know how 2 love. free boosie

    134. damn : y’all was rite : i ain’t gon say worse album of the yr. yet but it’s not good : sad cuz even tho WTT wasn;t as epic as they made it seem : it wasn’t bad @ all : smh ; startin 2 mak me think : is it more wayne fans den Ye&Jay or hiphop on some other ish : same thing w/ rocye & waka&gucci albums

    135. “Put you all in yo place like I’m replacing your father. You talking to the author. The architech of the Blueprint, my DNA in ur music, mothafucka you stupid?”

      1. Best rapper ever. Nas coming up with this? Ahahahaha, he’s so fucking dumb. Calls Jay out for naming an album The Blueprint, but one of his signature tracks The Message has the same title as Grandmaster Flash’s one.

    136. I am a fan of Weezy and Jay. Been a fan since the Juvey/Hot Boys days; and Reasonable Doubt era. This album may have sold a lot, but it was kind of like a 1st round bust. I had high expectations and I was disappointed. Like 50 Cent, it seems like Wayne is only at his best on mixtapes and guest apperances. I Am Not a Human Being is just slightly behind this offering. Not the classic I was expecting. Watch the Throne is not a classic either, but at least there was creativity and serious thought behind the concept of the album-nothing else out like it, which made it a great album. Carter IV is just good…after all the hype, that is unacceptable…especially with the flashes of greatness I have seen in his previous work.

      1. nah man only dickriders will defend this nigga homo actions and corny music and you dont sell 50million records worldwide without true fans. jay-z has a certified 4 to 5 classic albums what wayne got MAYBE
        1 because his new shit is trash

      1. because most likely, his camp bought a shit load of his records to make sales appear to be through the roof. Dont you know that Cash Money has people all of the world to do this to make it appear as large regional sales? Think about it.. if you were in direct competition with a record that came out before your’s, AND you’re beefing with one of the MC’s, wouldnt you do everything that you could to make sure your record out sold theirs??

      1. Common Sense tells you that Jason, but I have been reading your Wayne dick loving comments for a while now so I know your oblivious to what’s really going on.

      2. Exactly what I thought.
        NO proof.
        Just another lame attempt/excuse to try to bring Wayne down
        Except you FAILED. Miserably

      3. they yell that shit every time Wayne outsell these other bum artists. how you know Beyonce didn’t buy up 200,000 copies of Watch The Throne get blowed up by Lil Wayne

    137. BULLETIN: THE STATE OF HIPHOP/RAP HAS REACHED AN ALL TIME LOW…when the general public invests money in artists who only make words rhyme without the presence of coherence and relevance. Look folks…lil weezy is only as artistic as the tight jeans he wears with his ass hanging out which is not very masculine might I add and definitely not “gangster”! Hip hop and the rap genres are suffering bitterly at the hands of individuals who pose as artists. As bad as the economy is, which is why all record sales are suffering, people find cause in buying lil wayne’s music only because he is deemed as being popular. There are rappers out such as Eminem, Game, Nas, Scarface, and Jay Z who constanly rip microphones to shreds with their solid skills of coherently telling fascinating stories their reality and how they see the worls as we know it through their rhymes!! This is the very essence of what we came to love about hip hop and the rap game. You need to stop supporting artists who dont take the time to at least bring you nothing but their very best offerings, in terms of music, when they try to convince you to spend your money to make them rich and live in oppulence while the majority of our society lives mediocre at best. All the comments on here that say or imply that lil wayne is the best when it comes to rapping is apparently unaware and misguided as to what real skill sounds like on the microphone!!

      1. so then why did lil wayne beat jay and ye? i mean jay and ye are just as popular and have just as many if not more albums under their belt? so why did wayne beat then in only 4 days? hmmm maybe because hes a good artist and people like his music. he makes good music. and if you listened to tha Carter 4 then you would realize that wayne has some metaphoric lines that nobody would have thought of. not jay. not ye. maybe em just cuz hes the best at that shit but come. dont hate on the nigga cuz hes good. i aint no dick rider stan weezy fan cuz i like all of jays albums and kanyes. but think critically. i kno its hard for you, but just try. peace.

      2. You missed the point “miss anonymous”…it is not about the numbers of records sold or popularity. Hell if it was that then Vanilla ice woulda been considered a great rapper but we all know that is not the case!! The argument I made is in reference to how weak and limited lil wayne is when it comes to rapping. Great MCs make you envision their intent when they rhyme..u feel the connection because they make sense when they are telling their stories. Lil wayne is good at being popular and that’s about it. The nonsensical, mundane bullshit that comes outta his mouth is not worth it’s weight in gargage. Spend your money on artists that take the time to show you skill as well as coherence so that you wont feel as though you have spent your money on some rudimentary, Dr. Suess shit!

      3. if 500,000 more people bought waynes album over Jay Z and Ye combined in the 1st week, wayne is doing something right. You’re a hater! J and Ye lost bad, face it. Sales means everything because thats the only way to measure the publics interest in your music. if nobody is buying your music you are not hot

      4. amen. ill say this again. its all about sales ya dumbass. i really dont care what your point is. im telling you that its about opinion. your opinion is that you dont like his music. thats ok. i really dont care what you think, just dont go haitng on the nigga cuz the nigga is making money. just get the fuck outta here.

      5. Hell yeah it’s about sales. if these artists put out product that doesn’t sell watch how fast they get dropped. even when artists are introduced they promote that shit stop lying to yourself dick head because if Wayne shit didn’t sell that would be the first thing you would be trying to knock him for. fucking hater.

      6. Screw you! It’s not about sales. You’re all a bunch of brainwashed mules, you have no idea how easily you are manipulated, Damn! Don’t you idiots get it, Soulja Boy sells 1 million copies of his garbage ass album, it was not a classic or a good album, neither is Justin B or any of that other shit. Suckers! The only ppl who buy this shit are dumb ass girls manipulated with their sexuality. Open your horizons, there is great music made now not on the radio, there’s great music made before your time, you freaks!

    138. This was a pretty solid album. Wayne showed a lot of growth in terms depth and clarity. I’m not gonna lie, whether you like him or not, he’s still gonna dominate hip hop.

    139. Yo I just figured out what Weezy f baby means. Weezy fucks baby. No lie, rumor is to out do Beyonce and Jay-Z, Waynes about to go HAM on baby. Do you Weezy, them jeggings blowing up a niggas career.

    140. Jujitsu –

      I see your point, but the great thing about this country is nobody’s forcing you to listen to Tha Carter IV. If it’s too brain dead, go bump some Rakim. Being lyrical used to mean something. Now rappers who take pride in what they’re saying find themselves labeled as boring, and while that may be slightly unfair, it’s also unfair to assume that the best rap has to always have a message, cause that’s just not the case anymore.

    141. I really dont see what all the hoopla is all about. Big deal Weezy sold more albums. That doesnt mean much these days. All this means is that there are just a bunch of idiots who have no taste in music! JOE BUDDEN ALL DAY SON!

    142. You don’t think Kendrick or Cole would retire instantly for having these sales once. Everyone, I repeat, EVERY SINGLE artist dreams of this, others is all lies. It’s a business. There are no sell-outs. Music is supposed to be heard by the broadest mass possible. And it’s a form of entertainment, nobody wants to hear someone crying about the shit on this planet with reaching 1000 people. GTFOH! You can deny it all you want, deep down, you know it’s true.

    143. W-A-I-T!!! Wanye gets nothing but hate (at least he has double entendres and metaphors and good beats) and the simple ass nursery rhyming, incoherent and boring generic bullshit on a beat for 10 dollars called Nasty gets praised? LMAO, something is wrong here. Switch the names of the two and look how the ratings will change. Hey, Wayne was on Nas’ album (where he was outshined by Damian constantly) and Nas is on Wayne album. Get this whack fuck outta the rap game. Calling an album Hip Hop Is Dead and himself sounding like the Game didn’t need him anymore. All the Nas fans should buy AZ’s next album who has been better since they first appeared together.

      1. reaching hard…There is still nothing to justify why this album sold so much other than lil wayne fans dickriding and being mentally unstable…It’s just not that good and to make matters worse…it leaked so everybody could hear it…

      2. You are seriously calling Nas whack? He’s a front runner for GOAT, most people who know anything about hip hop will say that. I love Wayne as well, but he’s nowhere near Nas. GTFO here.

      3. No, I don’t want to say that, but he’s better when it comes to wordplay and metaphors, okay, almost everyone is. But Nas a front runner for GOAT? Nobody, aside from a few delusional people on this site, believe that.

    144. 75% OF THIS SITE IS WANNABE DOWN WHITE PEOPLE WHO STAN FOR EMINEM. US BLACK PEOPLE DONT TEAR EACH OTHER DOWN WHEN OUR OWN “BLACK” ARTISTS TOP THE CHARTS, WACK OR NOT. ITS STILL A HIP HOP DUDE OVERPOWERING THE INDUSTRY.

      SO EMINEM STANS CUT IT OUT, AND JAY-Z STANS ITS OKAY WE ALL KNOW JAY IS STILL BETTER, SALES DONT MEAN SHIT.

      1. Actually sales do matter you dumb shit. What the fuck are you talking about. you bitches cheered Gay Z all week after they broke a record. And now sales don’t matter? Bitch Please!

    145. i don’t know anybody who bought this album. they either downloaded it or said they hated it. even wayne fans i know hate it.

      It seems like the “rappers” (and I use that term loosely) who use auto tune and be singing on all their songs, are praised more than the actual rappers who don’t use tricks and gimmicks to sell their music. That just shows how bad off the rap game is. And I’m sorry but those numbers are suspect boo… His last albums Rebirth sold 176,000 copies its first week & I am not a Human Being sold 108,800 its first week. Now all of a sudden without any real smash hits the Carter 4 is going to sell around 700-850 thousand copies?! BOY BYE! Something in the water aint right and I’m calling bullshit!

      1. uhhh…”How To Love” crossed over…and those u mentioned…one was an experimental lp and one was an EP..EVERYBODY is familiar with the Carter series. EVERYBODY. even tho the album was coochie juice, him selling hotcakes isn’t far-fetched brush

    146. Lil Wayne is simply a GOD of this hip-hop shit
      A big middle finger to all the haters out there
      You guys just stay losin’ while Wayne stays winnin’

      1. That Many morons listen to this clown lil Wayne?!! Poor kids…luckily I was able to grow up listening to biggie and all 90s hip hop. The kids today grow up with lil waynes music. Poor kids…

    147. TO EVERYONE WHO THINKS WATCH THE THRONE WAS BETTER…AND I QOUTE FROM THESE TWO IDIOTS’ SONG CALLED GOTTA GET IT:

      “Racks on racks on racks, Racks
      Maybachs on bachs on bachs on bachs on bachs Who in that?
      Oh shit, it’s just blacks on blacks on blacks”

      C4 baby…heres sum weezy for u fukin haters.

      “And I slept with the work plenty nights, thought I heard Niggas coming, thought I saw the cop lights but
      I was dreaming, then I woke, the junkies was still fiendin
      N I had coke so I had hope u may say that is wrong
      But I ain’t talkin to ya child I’m talkin to this song”

      1. and sum C4 lines dat murdered all of WTT..

        Gorillas in suits
        The holy war, the spiritual troops
        Fighting over the mythical truth
        Drowning in the political soup
        They shoot missiles and nukes
        Taking out such a pivotal group
        The body count is the physical proof
        And they thought drugs were killing the youth

      2. Is Pious pious cause God loves pious?
        Socrates asks, “Whose bias do y’all seek?”
        All for Plato,

        -jay-z, no church in the wild

        bet u simple minded fuck has no idea what he is talking about

    148. my dream is to re-enact 2 girls 1 cup with lil wayne. i am more than willing to eat his shit on camera. lil wayne’s shit has the power to put an end to worldwide hunger!!!

    149. I just wanna know where is Baby storing all the EXTRA copies he bought. I was actually anticipating the release of C4 but i am truely disappointed the album is trash and WTT is by far way better than C4

      1. YO I SAID THE SAME ISH!!! THERES NO WAY IN HELL PEOPLE BUYING THE ALBUM LIKE DAT. BABY AND DEM SOME FRAUDS. ITS ALL GOING TO CATCH UP TO THEM..WATCH!!!!!

      2. YO I SAID THE SAME ISH! THERES NO WAY IN HELL PEOPLE BUYING THE ALBUM LIKE DAT. BABY AND DEM SOME FRAUDS. ITS ALL GOING TO CATCH UP TO THEM. WATCH!

      3. “YO I SAID THE SAME ISH! THERES NO WAY IN HELL PEOPLE BUYING THE ALBUM LIKE DAT”

        Wayne has 31 million likes on facebook. 900k out of 31 million is about 3%

        There’s no way that 3% of Wayne’s FB fans bought the album?

        Retard.

    150. Uhhhhh Winning! Didn’t take long to knock The throne in the dirt. Don’t be mad hating bitches. It aint Wayne fault Gay Z sucks.

      1. funny,too bad this is hardly considered his album since he’s not even on two tracks and hardly on w.e. u call how to hate or how to love-they def aren’t songs, plus where is lil wayne’s classic album? Thats right he doesnt have one

    151. I just got a $829.99 iPad2 for only $103.37 and my mom got a $1499.99 HDTV for only $251.92, they are both coming with USPS tomorrow. I would be an idiot to ever pay full retail prices at places like Walmart or Bestbuy. I sold a 37″ HDTV to my boss for $600 that I only paid $78.24 for. I use ( Bidsget ) . ( com )

    152. After sales meet a certain number they do not matter…To say The Carter IV is better the Watch The Throne is ineffably asinine… Lil Wayne is not a bad rapper but when you have a song made of just metaphors theres a problem. Although there are some songs that contain an actual story line or meaning…

    153. all i hear is weezy don’t kill me no more
      i hear your bullshit
      i play matador
      i’m outta category
      i aint there wit ya’ll
      i got a positive vibe but i ain’t scared of ya’ll
      git the kid nigga did never that at all
      that rat a tat go off
      a black kak kak kak
      i gotta bitch so fine her name perrion(?)
      she know how to stash quarters in a carry on
      i blow outta town
      grands when i’m outta town
      uptown in the buildin not a sound
      cuz killas don’t get heard about
      they get whispered about
      or you get murdered out(nigga)

    154. lmao @ LOL…nappy ass wnba playr…real talk!!! lets get of weezy and J. More about this nappy wnba headed ass nigga. i bet patrick ewing and lisa leslie yo birth parrents

    155. Screw you! It’s not about sales. You’re all a bunch of brainwashed mules, you have no idea how easily you are manipulated, Damn! Don’t you idiots get it, Soulja Boy sells 1 million copies of his garbage ass album, it was not a classic or a good album, neither is Justin B or any of that other shit. Suckers! The only ppl who buy this shit are dumb ass girls manipulated through sex appeal. Open your horizons, there is great music made now not on the radio, there’s great music made before your time, you freaks!

    156. I don’t understand how anybody can pay for this trash, only 2 good tracks 3 are decent. 2 of them lil wayne isn’t even on, wayne’s verses hold no meaning to them the whole album and Nas delievers the best verse but too bad that track is ruined by shyne’s horrible obnoxious lyrics.

      1. hey ima go buy it right now just to piss your faggot ass off…..

        fuck jay-z, fuck kanye, fuck eminem,fuck immortal tech, chino xl….. fuck you too.

    157. I don’t know why people waste there time going on websites to hate on other people. I mean some of you guys believe because you logged onto hiphopdx to say Wayne’s new single or new album is trash, that will stop the other 10 million fans around the world from listening and buying. I understand that everyone has there own preference of music, but if its a artist I dont listen to, I dont waste my time clicking on the link. Im not goin to make it a personal issue against a artist that I will never meet, and making a living for thereselves. Thats just plain hating, and there is too much of that in this world as it is. We all have our favorite artist, and we tend to be negative and bias towards certain artist who get the most attention. If anything you should applaud wayne for his longevity in this rap game. I mean Im 26 and I swear dude been doing it since I was like 12-13 yrs old. And the simple fact that its 2011, and he still doing first week numbers like that with todays cd sales is crazy. The rest of these cats need to step it up, and stop hating. I feel Wayne dumbed down his lyrics purposely because everyone is biting that style, instead of going harder and make wayne step his shit back up. Its a business before anything else.

    158. And the whole rappin with subject thing is a preference thing, and overrated. First of all every possible story has already been told, and how many fucking stories or messages can you deliver if you been rappin damn near 20 yrs. Pac was the greatest story teller, And I feel that style died with him. Im not looking at these guys to be role models, Im just looking for something I could slap in the car. And half the artist people claim to deliver a message in there music, don’t be talking about shit either. You use a couple big words in your verse, and pay respect to a KRS-one, Mos Def, and what that makes you tight? Not everybody is in to that shit, no disrespect tto the two of them, there dope, just making a point

    159. Wayne is winning y’all he go sell more than your favorite underground artist!!!! At the end of the day i am a wayne fan and been one since he debuted on b.g true story album…. He has progressed as a emcee and is now on cruise control and he can do that because he has paid his dues in hiphop. Hate all you want he will not read this and he not miss a step or lose sleep over you hating faggots. So with that said the spotlight is on you….tell em why you mad son!!!!!! need some tissue brah?

    160. FUCK LIL WAYNE. No straight up. He will never get the real respect as an MC because he straight garbage:

      1) He’s a faggot ass nigga wearing tight jeans like a bitch. No real niggaz wearin that.

      2) No originality, concepts swagga jacks everything from clothes to the dumb shit he put it in his rhymes.

      3) The little arrogant fuck had the nerve to disrespect 2Pac saying he wasn’t a good rapper.

      4) He got a shitload of ghost writers feeding him that nonsensical bullshit he raps: “I’m straight, my girl’s a faggot” WTF?

      5) He’s a fake ass blood, paid his way into the gang cuz he pussy. He’d get his ass beat in a real fight. If you actually believe this weasel can scrap? Kill yoself!!!

      6) He suck dick and take it in his ass. Birdman been raping this nigga since he was 9 years old AND taking his money. He kiss Birdman all n’ his mouth.

      WHO THE FUCK GON RESPECT YOU IN HIP HOP IF RUNNIN AROUND KISSING NIGGAZ?

      THAT BITCH ASS NIGGA just want attention that’s he screaming he the best rapper alive. Fuck outta here.

      1. Tell em why you mad? And at the end of the day he still get’s your favorite rapper’s respect….. What you eat won’t make him shit….. Wayne got you mad butt hurt….. Nigga go cry a river….

      2. You, a broke internet faggot who probably hasn’t had one bitch in his life, against 965,000 other people, who are enyjoing life. Kill yourself. The people have spoken.

    161. HAHA, Check this out:

      All you gotta do is take out all the shit Jay was saying about Nas on the Blueprint 2 song and insert Lil Wayne. It fit like a glove.

    162. Fuck his record sales, B. That nigga aint’ gon keep selling like that. Mu’fuckaz gon realize he ain’t saying nothing but stupid bullshit ass metaphors and punchlines all the time and he gon brick. Watch in 4 years where his scrawny tight spandex wearin ass gon be…

      1. The albums pretty good and I was a juvenile fan, not a lil wayne fan. I didn’t see what the big deal was about c3, his mixtapes, etc., I mean i liked parts of the album with GO DJ but didn’t really like fireman. But album with A milli is where he started to up his game. I think as more singles come out, Wayne sales will indeed go up. Can’t say the same about WTT, because HAM and OTIS are the best tracks on the album. I do like some other tracks. I admit i’ve been bumping WTT more than C4, but its so i can start liking it. I instantly felt lil waynes c4 and don’t want to overplay it.

    163. Birdman buying all this nigga albums and charging Lil Wayne for ’em hahahaha, Weezy love getting fucked in his ass, he had Juicy Tyrone braidin’ his hair Ryker’s Island haha

    164. Wayne is just terrible. He’s a very, very terrible rapper man. None of his songs make sense. Just because you confuse people with your ridiculous punch lines don’t make you a great rapper. It’s the ability to make great songs and Lil Wayne is not a great songwriter. He can’t make a coherent song let alone a whole album. I don’t understand why people like this guy, SMH.

    165. no doubt “watch the throne” is more important for the culture

      deep tracks on there.. im 100% sure watch the throne will sell more overall.. like if we look back on it it 10 years

      1. are you serious?!? Deep raps? What the hell were you listening too? They were talking about how great they were and sounded awkward, after talking about how great they were in skills and bling, making two semi conscious tracks at the end. You want deep rap, listen to Nas/Marley Collab, even NWA talking about the street in straightouttacompton, ice cub, talib, common on day it will all make sense, but WTT is deep?!? gtfoh. Neither C4 nor WTT are deep, but C4 was just more versatile with different beat stylings, etc. I just don’t see why folks feel their world is falling apart if someone can out game Jay Z? Jay Z is still great in his own right. Ya comments are biased and silly.

      2. LOL @ WTT being “deep”
        Faggot.
        90% of the album was talking about how great they are, how rich they are. WTT = luxury rap.

    166. No sarcasm and in all seriousness this dude doesn’t make my top 200 of all time, probably top 500…

      1. LOL…..And i bet every last artist you named has respect for wayne. You can say what you will about wayne and hate but he will go down as a legend. He is a hard working artist and it is clear that you are just blindly hating for no reason. Top 200 500 1000…… Who selling more right now? Killyourself

      2. He doesn’t make YOUR Top 200
        Who are you?
        Some random Internet scrub
        Lil Wayne is Top 10 all time easily, probably Top 5

    167. yo real talk, yo Andre and Jason ya some loyal fans of Weezy son. I wish ya was over there on Weezy review page servin these niggaz son. Mad hate over there. I respect yall for that. C4 is dope too by the way. He should do at 900,000 because he deserves it
