      1. The hate within you is strong. He’s a boss and this is the first release off of his new label. You’ll see where he will be in 10 years.

      2. Drake is not a boss for exploiting the insecurities of women within the hip-hop format nor is he actually hip hop because most of his fans are not fans of hip hop period.

      3. WELL TELL ME WHERE YOU MOTHERFUCKERS WILL BE IN 10 YEARS. DRAKE WILL BE EVEN MORE SUCCESSFUL BY THEN FUCKING BITCHES WHILE YOU SIT IN THE UNEMPLOYMENT/WELFARE LINE WAITING FOR YOUR CHECK.

    1. Impressive numbers for partynextdoor. His album was barely promoted but he managed to do it on his own. And I know that his sales will soar as the years go by. Ovo for life.

      1. how did he do it on his own exactly? the only reason he sold 15k is his affiliation with wheelchair jimmy.

      2. ^ you say “wheelchair jimmy” like it’s some secret that you exposing. Sit your ignorant azz down.

      3. “you say “wheelchair jimmy” like it’s some secret that you exposing. Sit your ignorant azz down.”

        LOL not at all it’s just a funny lil name,

      4. Aubrey is his real name. You don’t gotta be exposing a secret to clown on a corny lame nigga with a girls name who is known for being a corny cripple character in a lame show.

      5. He did do it on his own forreal, all drake did is promo his music via sound cloud and give him 2 light verses. after that anyone that heard his tracks was a fan, tracks like Make A Mil, Relax With Me, Persian Rugs, Welcome To The Party and Wus Good/Curious had nothing to do with drake. PARTYNEXTDOOR made the beat for Drake’s Days In The East, & used his vocals on Drake’s Own It, getting no credit just showin love. Drake only found PARTYNEXTDOOR cause he was already doin his thing. Self Made forreal salute

      6. Ok @beastcoast not trying to burst your bubble but drake did give him credit if you were a true fan of ovo like you claim to be you would have read his name in the nothing was the same booklet…..Partynextdoor is a phenomenal artist he does his own production…..so for a debut album that he produce himself with no help from anyone I think him being in spot 15 is saying something because he didnt put as much money in it as someone like trey songs and common so personally i dont think his album was a flop he’s a underground artist what do you expect especially from a guy who didnt promote the album and only sold it on itunes

      1. hip flop doesn’t mean that he’s not a great rapper remember songs like I used to love her common is fucking ill he’s just not being appreciated by those stupid kids who listen to iggy and nicki and drake
        and for Em his singles are only pop eminem show had without me MMLP had the real slim shady, you shouldn’t be hating on him considering that he’s one of the few mainstream rappers who don’t rap about money and bitches

      2. oooooo damn son he said hip pop hip flop

        iggys more hip hop than old ass common and Eminem word life god

      3. uhhh like yea she is

        that bitch used to rack polo and guess from the macys in Australia god back in 94…stuff that shit in a kangaroo pouch n just walk out like a g god, that’s hip hop as fuck dun when was the last time common or em did that???

        and when was the last time common or em put out consistent heat rocks like iggy??? huh???? don’t worry ill wait….

    2. WHERE TO START, AS I ALWAYS SAY AIN’T NOBODY IN THE INDUSTRY FUCKIN WITH SHADY PERIOD !!!! 2MILLI PLUS WITHOUT EVEN TRYING .. IMAGINE THE NUMBERS IF HE ACTUALLY PUSHED HARD WITH HIS ALBUM. HE IS FLAT OUT HOLDING THE MUSIC INDUSTRY TOGETHER ALONG WITH JAY, BEY, AND DRIZZY THAT IS IT PEOPLE !!!! TAKE A LISTEN TO A BEAST A TRUE FIRE SPITTER AKA RAP GOD…. SHADY/AFTERMATH/INTERSCOPE

      1. Can idiots like you stop trying to bring hate to people, you can’t come on here and say eminem is the best or drake or anyone without getting hate….

      2. Eminem hates his fans so much he made a song about how much fans suck and he doesn’t put effort into his corny music. Just open a dictionary and vomit whatever gayass words sound similar. They don’t even have to rhyme properly!

      1. Number 15 album on the charts? I think not. Especially not with a drake assisted single. You’ll all remember partynextdoor well into your golden years.

      2. That’s a flop. Partynextdoor failed and no one will remember him next year. Hell, a lot of people don’t even know who he is.

    3. I tried to tell mmotherfuckers that partynextdoor would hit the top of the charts. I tried to fucking tell them, but would they listen? hell no. thats precisely why drake runs rap. he makes a few moves and bam, others are successful. maybe next time you motherfuckers will heed my words.

      1. Can’t you read, idiot? Partynextdoor didn’t even make the top 10. And he flopped selling 15K. Drake failed to make this dude successful and he sure as hell don’t run anything.

      2. drake ain’t even do shitt forreal whats soundcloud promotion thats nothin he did way more for The Weeknd and partynextdoor still poppin on his own shitt

      3. PARTY ain’t flop tho for an underground from Toronto & he doing better than trigga right now ctfu “tell a hatin ass nigga to stfu”

      4. Yes, he is a flop. He sure as hell ain’t underground if he signed to Drake. Also, look at Trey’s numbers and look at PND’s numbers. There is no comparison.

      5. of course there’s no comparison partynextdoor shit only available on itunes with no radio/tv promo but on the charts right now he’s above him that says something. he is still underground its either mainstream or underground and he sure as hell ain’t mainstream

      6. I’m pretty sure Trey Songz has sold more than PND, plus Trey went to #1, being above someone doesn’t mean anything. Also, PND ain’t underground at all, he’s signed to a mainstream rapper’s label. Quit making excuses for him.

      7. You right, but I said “right now” And ain’t no excuses I just support his grind cause he new and his shit hard. How you compare a dude with one previous mixtape to Trey Songz thats whats wrong with you niggas, always hating on a young nigga while you sitting down typing lol watch him blow up

      8. & being signed to OVO ain’t nothing to flex about I can’t name a single artist from that label besides PND

      1. sure he is, the music is just for fun and the love of it. he gets hollywood movie and tv show money now.

    4. to everyone hating on partynextdoor, it’s his debut album and he’s hardly known by many. watch him blow up in the future and you all will continue to kill yourselves as drake and ovo run this rap shit. #OVO #PartyNextDoorTwo #ViewsFromThe6

      1. That’s no excuse. There’s many artists who sold more with their debuts. It’s a flop. Also, PND ain’t gonna blow up and Drake and OVO ain’t running shit with those dismal numbers. Find a new bandwagon to jump on.

      2. There’s many people who post under Anonymous. How would you know who was who? Nobody’s on your prepubescent dick, homo. All I did was correct your comment.

      3. every response to my comments is always someone that’s anonymous who’s a drake hater and saying the exact opposite of what i say. it has to be just your ass that’s always replying to my comments. and you didn’t correct anything. my statement was all facts.

      4. I can’t believe this anonymous nigga still hating ctfu. This nigga a certified hater lol. You can tell it’s the same person from how he type, and you can also tell he don’t fuck no hoes!

      5. How am I hating when I only state facts? You’re just a butthurt stan who can’t take criticism. And you can’t talk about someone not fucking hoes when the only pussy you get is petting a cat.

      6. Oh I pet tons of cats and even seduced them. You lucky to even get noticed by men let alone women. And yes thats the same guy who keeps stalking me. He only comes out when I state facts.

      7. You basically just admitted you get no women. LOL fail. Ain’t nobody stalking you, retard. And what facts?

      8. No, you were talking about cats. No one call women cats. Even if it were slang, it’s slang for men, so you’re admitting being gay, You fail again.

      9. Wrong fucking loser. Snoop doggs call females cats all the time. Just leave me alone before you embarrass yourself and get yourself hurt.

      10. No, he hasn’t. You’re the wrong one here. Quit trolling and get a life. You’re only hurting yourself.

    5. PARTYNEXTDOOR album sounds like a bad Drake album. They both have similar styles and mid tempo beats. just this fool uses auto-tune more heavy and his flow is muffled @ times. Very unoriginal, Sad!

    6. Bi-Polar commenters, 1st you say numbers don’t matter when it refers to Drake going platinum, but now when the numbers are low with someone affiliated to Drake, u try to clown and say it was a flop… Haha with that being said nothing was the same was a huge success and commons nobody smiling was a FLOP!!!!!!!

      1. OP, you can’t be talking bipolar comments when your whole comment is bipolar. And did you even notice that no one called PND trash or commented on his music, just his disappointing sales? I don’t see any bipolar comments here at all.

      2. Oh the fucking stupidity. You call the ops comment bipolar and yet you say you haven’t seen any. Who’s the bipolar fuck now? You lucky i dont know where you at or else you would be going down.

      3. ^ Nah, the stupidity is in your comment. I said that there aren’t any bipolar comments aside from the OP’s. Think, you moron. And threatening people online? LOL what an E-thug.

      4. See, he only appears when I talk to him. He goes sometimes by ^: (symbol for erect dick mean in he’s obviously a gay stalker.)

      5. No, I just show up to correct dumb comments from dumb trolls like you. Also, that arrow looks nothing like a dick and isn’t a symbol of one. You calling people gay, yet you’re talking about erect dicks. Just come out the closet.

      6. OOOOOH!! I’M SO SCARED!! LOLOL

        On a serious note, do you threaten everyone on the internet? You sound pathetic.

      7. If u look further down the comments, someone mentioned that his album flopped because of low sales. If u read the comments on other drake articles, when ever a Drake fan brings up albums sales, you haters say album sales mean nothing, numbers mean nothing. But when someone affiliated with Drake had low numbers, u say its a flop. I guess u hold drake to some high standards like he’s supposed to carry everyone on his back. Also when ever lil Wayne and Nikki have low sales, on e again haters are quick to comment and say there flopping, but when some one says common had low sales, oh he’s doing it for fun, he’s making movies, it’s not about sales, it’s about quality. But if it was about quality then people would buy it dumbass. Love it how now I got like 2-3 oraybe the same hater. Whenever I post now I get a response from some Geek. And it is this ^: that be quick to respond and then post under my name with some gay Drake comment. Fuckin (favorite white word) FAGGOT

      8. @Real Talk

        Wow. You are a moron on your period. Nothing you said was true at all, it’s just a bunch of lies. You stans always get sensitive everytime someone criticizes your favorite artists. You made yourself look stupid again. Just quit commenting on this site, you pussy.

      9. Haha u finally threw in the towel ^: u got exposed butch boy, now u gotta post under anon…. Everything i said is straight from the comments.

        This white person is delusional. FACTS

      10. I’m nor even the arrow guy, retard. There’s many people who comment on this site. And nothing you said had anything to do with those comments. You’re just reaching for an excuse to be pissy and call everyone white without any proof. You sound like a sad person who might commit suicide.

    7. PartyNextDoor sold half of Common’s new realease on his first week. unbelieveable. who is this guy? does he rap or sing? where’s he from?

      1. J Lo flopped hard, she should have called some stars up to get on her records instead of non platinum selling bustas like French and Ross.

      1. It’s obviously not a flop if it sold over 500K (which the fans bought, Epic didn’t buy any copies).
