Not too bad for a rap album nowadays.
G.O.O.D. numbers for them. Album is ok, couple of hot joints.
Anyone know why they didn’t put the album on iTunes? seems they lost sales there
it is on iitunes
it was put on itunes a day late.
The majority of mainstream albums get leaked by employees from Apple, it was released a day late to try and keep the leak from releasing earlier.
“sexpcted” 🙂
According to HDD, Kanye West’s group project is sexpcted to sell between 170,000 SEXPCTED? Proof read your posts, you fucking idiots
they do it on purpose. just ignore them
it is SEXPCTED that GOOD music banged 170,000 girls combined. it is correct…LOL!
Decent projections for a group album but it should be noted that 2chainz came close to these numbers on his solo album. So…ehh.
No, that’s not no decent numbers for a so called super group with a double platinum single……..lol
You’re stupid.
first your both wrong, its not a super group its a compilation/mix tape album from a record label. its not like they formed a super group like slaughterhouse or something.
If it was a Kanye or Big Sean solo album, it would have sold over 400,000.
I hope they could do 200k.
LOL sean’s album did 80k first week
and im not sure if he’s reached 200k at all
Kanye is getting boring and if it was his solo effort it’d go 300k tops
@ Amirhosssein
you just keep being a fag. Kanye is not getting boring, you’re just a douchebag. Big Sean’s debut sold more than 200k also, retard.
And this is your second strike. Sean has sold 351k so far. If you’re not sure don’t speak on it. You don’t know what a Kanye solo effort would garner because it doesn’t exist yet. And four s’ in your name already makes you suspect. Think before you speak or prepare for the consequences.
sexpcted
Thats not a word dummies.
now say what u want but that IS a flop to me ………
platinum single
hottest MCs in the game
humongous promotion
mad media coverage
and they did the same number as BME’s EP which came out of no where without any spinning single and proper promotion (and it was an EP, lol even though had the same amount of tracks)
and it’s a good thing what you say doesn’t matter because you don’t know what you’re talking about. here’s a hint….”humongous promotion” and “mad media coverage” are the same thing.
sexpected is that like a swype keyboard error?
HAHAHAHHAA
HAHAHAHHAA lol fuckin fools
sexpect the unexpected (rape)
sexpected!!! AHAHAHAHA so funny.
Grow up.
IMMA LET Y’ALL TALK
BUT DON’T THINK I 4GOT WHAT Y’ALL FCUKBOIS WERE SAYING ABOUT SELF MADE 2
“THESE ARE GREAT NUMBERS FOR A COMPILATION”
“IT’S JUST A COMPILATION, STOP HATING”
“WHEN GOOD MUSIC DROPS THEY WILL DO LESS”
“#2 #’S ARE BETTER THAN THE FIRST WEEK OF #1’S #’S”
TREAD LIGHTLY
horowitz does it again, why does this guy have a job here?
Just read the story.
horowitz and sea ryon are the worst writers of any hip hop site
You defiantly never been on HipHopWired.
*definitely
Artwork reminds me of a perfume bottle.
Outsold MMG’s totals in 1 week.
new god flow, clique and mercy and that s that as far as bangers go. the rest is wack
all this club rap, GOOD music versus YCMB I hope all this shit tumbles and crumbles like the death star from Star Wars F the empire F the industry and major ‘hip hop’labels
Just heard the ablum. was gonna buy it. But now im not. Its not that great. I was extremely disappointed. Alllll that talent over there. smh…
Wasn’t there going to be a deluxe edition with more tracks and that Cruel Summer movie? This feels incomplete and its half classic half mixtape.
that more typical fanboy rumor shit never confirmed by an official source
Those aren’t great numbers, but the bigger mystery is why this site never reviewed Undisputed.
Oh, they’re always late with reviews.
But where is E-40: Block Brochure … ?
this is not a professional hiphop site.
Im gone look for cudi and push trk on youtube fuk good
How many of you were expecting more tracks and more consistency to this?
mmg aint G.O.O.D
gold easy
gold album platinum singles G.O.O.D ASS JOB
Those are really good numbers in 2012 (better than 2 Chainz, slightly lower than Nicki and Ross). Sad thing is the album probably won’t recoup the costs for getting all those guest appearances and producers on there.
At least the singles already made them a ton of money.
it all about touringg young man – no-one makes anything of albums (minus Jay & Birdman)
Pretty damn GOOD! Better than Ross and them boys did
i understand typos but DAMN! “sexpcted” really?
I really really…don’t think “Cruel Summer” will be outsold its first week by anything…Pink…Rick Ross…condoms..gas…nothing will make more sales than G.O.O.D. that week…
lol funny you say that when pink i predicted to sell 220…. sad lol
troll
Best Tracks are “New God Flow”, “Mercy”, and “Clique”, “The Morning” Has great potential but the beat does not fit the epicness of the performers (i.e. Raekwon & Common) or the hook, and “The One” Suffers from an awful hook from an otherwise amazing Marsha Ambrosious, that track could have been so much more dope, Sin City is also one that should have featured Kanye, Pusha and Common, instead of Yusef.
i’m sure the whole album is trash…
LMFAOO ..CMON NOW TAKE CARE MOVIN 650K FIRST WEEK AND THAT PARISIAN METROSEXUAL NIGGA AND THE WHOLE GAY CLIQUE MOVIN 170K FASHION BITCH UNITS…THIS IS NOT TROLLIN, NEITHER SUPPORTIN YMCMB..THIS IS A STATISTICAL FACT..AUBREY SHITTIN ON YO BLACK ASS
daaaaaamn
dayyuumm
daayum
lool
looool stfu
Kanyes audience doesn’t include little teenage girls so yea there’s going to be less sales. NSYNC sold over 2 mil first week, so according to your logic, that means they are SO MUCH better than Drake..right?
go SEXPECT yourself, YESSIR
Drake is a better artist than everyone except for Kanye West. Big Sean is the only other on G.O.O.D Music that is a good artist,
Common and Cyhi both are on a different level than Big Sean(a higher one by far).. but whatever you’re entitled to your opinion.
“OH GOD!” *big sean voice*
Them Numbers are decent considering what everybody else is doing, but I think it speaks volumes for where hip hop is that one of the biggest rap crews cant outsell a mid-level pop star, cause lets face it Pink is no where the level of popularity of a Lady Gaga or Katy Perry or Rhianna or whoever, she’s a middle of the road, happy to still be here after all this time pop star, and she’s expected to easily outsell one of the most critically acclaimed and well promoted modern day rap crews. Says alot
They are not one of the biggest rap grews. They only have one platinum artist and Kanye. Calm down, Stanley.
For Real… they aren’t even a crew ore like Kanye’s label…. the ablum sounds like Kanye on speed..
“sexpcted”
This site needs new people
what the fuck is happening to mainstream hhop.. how can this outsell SH and more to the point LIFE IS GOOD?!
SH???It will outsell Life is Good – as it’s a different lane than Nas (who is GOAT)
but SH? ….. Bro… you need to do some serious hiphop history if you think they can mentioned in the same breathe as a Nas or a Kanye….
I like how Kanye has been bringing Wu-Tang back to the front of these little niggas decks….
“how can this outsell SH and more to the point LIFE IS GOOD?!”
Easily. Those first two were trash.
The only people that can open big are Eminem, Jay, Kanye (solo), Wayne and Drake.
It probably should have sold more, but it’s not that bad of an album.
Funny how pop, rock, and christian music all sale..
Keep stealing your music and then talking about how artists are flopping..
