Future winning big again. Atlantic are morons for not promoting wiz khalifa.
Not really. This album is gonna sell less than the previous (which didn’t even go gold) and it was released in a time with no big releases, so Future isn’t winning. And Wiz’s album got plenty of promo from Atlantic, it’s just that no one cares about Wiz anymore
Future is winning, no one goes gold anymore, thats no good point. 100k + first week is big nowadays
This album was more of a surprise release though so not everyone found out about it yet. This will have huge legs. And Wiz didn’t have much promo.
Also, if no one cared about wiz anymore, his see you again single wouldn’t have been a massive hit. Charlie Puth is dope too, not sure why critics hate his album. He’s like frank sinatra.
It wasn’t a surprise release, everyone already knew about it. It’s not gonna have huge legs, it’ll continue falling off and won’t see gold sales just like DS2. Wiz had plenty of promo, it’s just that no one cared and he released it too late. See You Again was only a hit because of Furious 7 and the fact that one of its stars died. And Charlie Puth sucks ass, that’s why critics hate his album, it’s trash. He’s nothing like Sinatra, he’s the epitome of white-washed pop music that appropriates black music.
That many people buying incoherent Autotuned crap? SMH
Damn was hoping wiz would get more. How did Future blow up like this? Im not hating but i dont even understand what he says ever
Kendrick got 350k, Kanye will as well. Drake I got 500k + for ‘What a Time…’ 100K is Schoolboy Q level. Not what you’d expect from Future, shows he’s not quite where he’s perceived to be.
I had just been listening to Purple Reign, so didn’t feel like more music from the guy. Strange choice to release that so soon before. You’ve just got a whole free album, then you have to decide how much better the new one is to be worth paying for. It’s a bit off-putting.
These are 1st week. WATTBA got 500k as an all time gross not first week idiot.
These are first-week sales
The Future hasn’t been issued on cd yet, and it’s only available for streaming on apple.
Nobody cares abt sales anymore…. “The real $$$$$ is at shows & concerts” – A LOT OF RAPPERS
100k first week is not good for a so called hottest rapper in the country….
100,000 units at 10$ a cd is 1,000,000$ first week album sales alone and all the shows pay at least 50K to 100K most relevant real artist in a minute
#1 is #1..Folks can down play it all they want
