Two debuts make their Top 3 mark on this week’s Billboard Top 200 Albums chart. Lecrae breaks into the #1 spot with Anomaly while Jhene Aiko arrives in the #3 slot with Souled Out. Elsewhere, Jeezy’s Seen It All: The Autobiography sees a drop in sales, but remains in the Top 10 while Rittz’s Next To Nothing also makes it debut, landing at #14.
Lecrae’s Anomaly Lands At #1
Lecrae’s Anomaly has arrived at #1 this week. The album, which earned a 3.5 out of 5 in its HipHopDX review, moved 88,587 units in its first week of availability, removing Maroon 5 from the #1 spot it occupied last week with V. “Perhaps Anomaly’s biggest triumph is also its quietest: it adds on to mounting evidence that Lecrae is the most impactful Christian rapper ever,” critic Jay Balfour writes in the HipHopDX review. “It may not be a label he himself will flaunt, but he became the first Hip Hop artist to win a Grammy for Best Gospel Album last year and has assimilated into the mainstream more fully than any other emcee of his kind. At the same time, part of what makes Anomaly and its artist compelling musically is that he’s so bent on pushing against Hip Hop as he continues to become a bigger part of it. It’s a fitting practice because for every new piece of success he achieves he also appears more as himself. At its base, Anomaly is about being different, that Lecrae actually is makes it genuine.”
Jhene Aiko’s Souled Out Sold Enough For #3
Lecrae’s Anomaly was not the only debut this week to land in the Top 3. Jhene Aiko’s Souled Out also arrived, making its mark with 69,844 units sold in the album’s first week of sales. Souled Out, which also earned a 3.5 out of 5 in its HipHopDX review, joins Anomaly as the only Hip Hop or R&B albums in this week’s Top 5. “Jhene Aiko is a rare artist that an ear, heart and soul must grow into loving,” critic Marcus K. Dowling writes in the HipHopDX review. “The reason? She’s a creative soul who thankfully, for the listener, has a life that can’t be boxed into four-minute radio anthems. On this album, a story finally begins in earnest for the Hip Hop styled chanteuse weaving her magic onto melodic mattresses resting on boom-bap box springs with spellbinding results.”
Jeezy’s Seen It All: The Autobiography Sees Drop In Sales
While Lecrae and Jhene take the Top 3 spots, Jeezy fell from last week’s #2 placement, landing just out of the Top 5 this week with Seen It All: The Autobiography. This week, Seen It All dropped 73 percent in sales from 121,190 last week to 33,074 units sold. Overall, Jeezy has moved 154,539 units of Seen It All. Like Anomaly and Souled Out, Jeezy’s Seen It All earned a 3.5 out of 5 in its HipHopDX review, a review which saw critic Sheldon Pearce call the project “a glimpse into how Jeezy can make his living on the back nine in a crowded subgenre with no use for him anymore.”

RELATED: Release Dates
Jhene flopped bad..
cuz you know how much def jam spent on the album right?
Chris Brown, the drake wannabe, is about to flop hard. Being a drake wannabe doesn’t pay off. He doesn’t even realize that 1. Drake is R&B/hiphop while brown is shitty pop and 2. Drake goes down on women during sex while brown beats thems almost to death.
Funny how ross gets flak for being overweight and covering his past as a co yet brown gets away with attempted murder of rihanna.
Go take your meds!!
lmao attempted murder
her crazy carribean ass was probably smacking him up everyday n he couldn’t take it anymore
if drake got his ass beat by Rihanna hed make a song about it n how he misses her
Chris Brown almost killed Rihanna you dumbass. It ain’t rihanna’s fault he lost control.
Also, Drake would never hurt anyone. Drake is what you call having real emotions. Not every rapper needs to be a thug.
you must not know any carribean bitches…
and thugs have emotions too :*(
IMmature a hole.
How is Chris Brown a Drake wannabe when he was here first?
wow, I didn’t expect that much from rittz, but so glad he did a solid first week..keep it Strange
everyone vote up iggy and i will provide the sextape link if iggy is number1 on the hhdx votes for best album of the list.
Lecrae did great numbers considering he indie. Better sales than khaled, fall of an empire, 50, french montana, among others.
Lecrae bought his own albums. He flopping hard.
Do you say that about every artist you’re not a fan of? He didn’t buy his albums, his fans did and he ain’t flopping hard.
You always stalk me pervert? Lecrae was struggling before now he suddenly big? Sounds like suspect behavior right there.
No, I just came to see the weekly sales and then you came with your dumb shit. Lecrae wasn’t struggling and there’s nothing suspect about these numbers. Dude is rising.
Lecrae isn’t rising naturally. He still flopped hard and he bought his copies just to make up for that flop. What’s so good about Lecrae anyway? Just another boring rapper to me.
What does rising naturally mean? Dude did not flop and he didn’t buy any copies, otherwise these numbers would be over 150K.
Why does everyone love Lecrae? How is he different?
Lecrae is a Christian rapper. I’d say that sets him apart.
Congrats to Lecrae.
Yeah, congrats to lecrae for buying enough of his own albums to go no.1 LOL.
How is Chris Brown a Drake wannabe when he was here first?”
Chir sBrown was a huge fan of degrassi and was a major dickrider of drake. He stole his style.
No, the fans bought Lecrae’s album. Also, Chris’ career started before anyone has ever heard of Drake, so there’s no way he would dickride him or steal his style.
If he were to buy his own albums, then his numbers would’ve been at like 150-200K, not 88K. Where’s the logic?
Drake was on degrassi as wheelchair jimmy fool. Brown is a huge fan of that show and followed drake. He copied his style when he sung and rapped and used that to propel his own career. Also, Chris Brown beats his women while drake pleases them. That X album gonna flop big.
Drake wasn’t even a rapper when he was on Degrassi. Chris wasn’t a fan of that show and he never copied Drake’s style at all. Dude was inspired by Usher and Michael Jackson.
Drake was inspired by those 2. That’s the only reason why people claim brown is inspired by them. Because he’s inspire by drake. And drake rapped in his offtime. MJ’s a pedo and usher fell the fuck off.
No, he wasn’t. Brown was always inspired by Usher and MJ. Nobody even knew about Drake as a rapper, so he can’t inspire Chris. Also, Michael’s not a pedo and Usher didn’t fall off.
Usher’s shit was pushed back because it aint buzzing. That’s falling off. Also, Drake gave interviews and he sung and rapped in some of them to show off his inspiration. Brown copied him. Why are you supporting a woman beater for crying out loud?
Usher’s shit wasn’t pushed back, it is buzzing. Drake only showed off his Kanye and Wayne inspiration, no Usher and MJ. Chris never copied Drake, it was the other way around.
How come they don’t count digital sales in the units section? That would no doubt be a more realistic album sales number.
80% of those numbers are from digital sales
If he were to buy his own albums, then his numbers would’ve been at like 150-200K, not 88K. Where’s the logic?
He’s too broke to buy everyone of his albums. Otherwise, it would be platinum. However, the increase from his previous albums is suspect.
Lecrae is worth $3 million, so he can’t be broke. How is his numbers increasing suspect? So albums that sold more in the first week than the previous is suspect? You really don’t think about the things you post, don’t you?
Again, why is Lecrae different? Also, he was flopping before.
Dude’s a Christian rapper. He wasn’t flopping considering he’s an independent artist.
Exploiting the christians isn’t christian rap.
How is he exploiting Christians?
How are Lecrae’s number suspect? What makes you conclude he was “flopping” before? He has steadily increased sales as his fanbase increased. This is typical with indy artists. He sold 70k first week with the last album, sold 20k+ first week with a free mixtape. 88k for this album probably didn’t meet expectations….
Dentalboy’s logic:
An artist he hates, no matter what sales he does, will always be seen as flopping. An artist he stans for, however, even 3k copies is considered a humongous success.
Lecrae is a Christian rapper. I’d say that sets him apart.
He’s exploiting the church for his own gains.
How is he exploiting the church by making Christian rap?
He’s exploiting the church in rap, that’s not making christian music. Church from meek mill is more christian rap than this.
How, though? He’s making Christian music. Meek Mill never did a song called Church and nothing he did would be considered Christian music.
Sorry. That mill song was actually amen with drake. That paid more respect to church than anything lecrae did. Lecrae’s music is him reinforcing christian stereotypes.
Amen was another song about money and women, it had nothing to do with church and doesn’t pay respect to anything. Lecrae’s music isn’t renforcing stereotypes, it’s spreading a message of faith and God. Reinforcing stereotypes is what Meek Mill is doing.
What Christian stereotypes?
Amen describes finding love in church. It’s faithful to the message.
Nothing in Amen suggests finding love in a church. It’s another brag rap song about money, women, material possessions, etc. It’s not faithful at all.
Keep trolling this guy he seems like an easy victim.
Rittz album is dope, good sales for him. And Lecrae at #1, I think that’s the first time I’ve seen a Christian rapper go #1 on the Top 200.
Souled Out is the best non hip-hop album of the year.
Usher’s shit wasn’t pushed back, it is buzzing. Drake only showed off his Kanye and Wayne inspiration, no Usher and MJ. Chris never copied Drake, it was the other way around.”
Usher is indeed pushed back so it isn’t buzzing. Drake never copid brown as he isn’t a wife beater. I would rather be overly sensitive than be a woman beater.
It ain’t pushed back and it is buzzing. Drake did copy Chris Brown.
Whatever. Brown to reach the sales of mastermind. Ross about to beat him again in november.
Ross isn’t gonna beat anyone.
Hood Billionaire will sell 250k at least 1st week.
No, it won’t. Hood Fraud will sell less than what Masterflop did.
Hood BIllionaire will obviously sell more. And Mastermind didn’t flop. Otherwise, there would be no album for 3 years. Pharrell could have put out another album if his GIRL album didn’t flop. 110k 1st week LOL!!
Hood Fraud will not sell more than Masterflop (which did flop). Pharrell didn’t flop as he sold more than Ross and he doesn’t need to put out another album. Not everyone wants to release an album every 6 months. Quality over quantity.
Creating a character doesn’t constitute a fraud. Ross made an album to replace meek’s.
Ross didn’t create a character, though.
Haha, white people pitting one of their Black heros against each other like Poke Mon cards.
Gotta love how the OG comment was about Jhene Aiko and all the replies are bickering back and forth about Usher, Chris Brown, Drake and Rick Ross. The C-section on here is pure gold.
Nothing in Amen suggests finding love in a church. It’s another brag rap song about money, women, material possessions, etc. It’s not faithful at all.
Its definitely about finding love in church. Talks about making love and how God changed their lives.
No, it’s another brag rap song, not a song about finding love in church. They aren’t talking about making love or how God changed their lives at all.
“Its definitely about finding love in church. Talks about making love and how God changed their lives.”
Show some lyrics where that’s happening.
And I say church (Preach)
We make it light up like a church (Preach)
This talks about him and his lover praying, making it light up like church.
He’s talking about lighting up a blunt, not praying. And there is no lover in this shit.
No it talks about making love. God’s way of multplying.
NO, it’s talking about lighting up a joint, not making love. Nobody uses those words for making love. Just accept that Amen is not about what you think it is. It’s just another dumb brag rap song that has nothing to do with church and God.
It’s about making love, plain and simple. It’s about being thankful to god for having women here. It’s all respectful to church. More than what you can say about lecrae’s shit album/.
You read too much into simple shit. It’s not about making love, it’s not about being thankful to God for women, and it’s not respectful to church, it’s a dumb brag rap song, end of discussion. Lecrae’s album (which is good, not shit) is much better than that shit Amen song.
What’s wrong with brag rap? Everyone brags all the time? Are you seriously mad you don’t have the things he has? Lecrae is shit by the way.
Nothing wrong with brag rap, but we have too much brag rap. Not everyone brags all the time. I don’t care about the shit Meek claims to have (but he really doesn’t). How is Lecrae shit?
And we still can’t recognize a troll
Suburban Fraud
CB4 thief
MC Gusto
Scared Nigga
Haha, white people pitting one of their Black heros against each other like Poke Mon cards.
Well they do like to dickride 50 ever since 50 dissed ross even though Ross is better. No one else checks for 50 while ross goes no.1 almost every time.
Ross isn’t better and he doesn’t go number one all the time.
They worship 50 because he was Eminems artist and Eminem is their God and they live vicariously through him. I give 50 credit for exploiting his fans to fatten his pockets, his albums and movies are inferior, low budget and low quality but his 100,000 fans still buy the trash.
I said ALMOST everytime. Damn can’t you read? Ross is going to go no.1 again on november 24th.
He ain’t going to #1 when he’s up against Eminem and Nicki.
Ross may be outsold by nicki but shady records is going to flop (not an eminem album btw but a label compiliation)
Shady Records won’t flop at all.
Yelawolf flopped, Bad Meets Evil flopped, slaughterhouse flopped, d12 hasn’t been in the game lately, and eminem won’t appear much. Flop in my books. If the album does well, that’s when hiphop dies.
Bad Meets Evil did not flop at all and Eminem is gonna appear a lot since he runs the label. Your books suck ass. If this album does well, hip-hop won’t die, it’ll continue on fine.
Gold is terrible for an album that has eminem featured a lot. MMG about to run 4th quarter but kendrick and eminem will try to ruin it. Ross has done a lot to revive hiphop. It’s up to you now. Killing hiphop with eminem or letting it continue with mmg.
Gold is good for a collaboration EP. MMG ain’t gonna run shit. Ross hasn’t done anything to “revive” hip-hop and Eminem hasn’t done anything to kill it. I will choose to help hip-hop by buying Eminem’s record and not buying anything from MMG.
GO LAUGHTERHOUSE!
GO LAUGHTRHOUSE!
Nice to see Rittz chart in the top 20 as well.
word
Nothing wrong with brag rap, but we have too much brag rap. Not everyone brags all the time. I don’t care about the shit Meek claims to have (but he really doesn’t). How is Lecrae shit?
Meek doesn’t brag all the time either. And renting stuff is smarter than buying. Lecrae exploits the church for his own gains.
Meek does brag all the time, are you slow? And how does Lecrae exploits the church? You never answered that question. You just say shit without explaining.
He doesn’t brag all the fucking time. And Lecrae exploits the church by reinforcing christian stereotypes.
“He doesn’t brag all the fucking time”.
Yes, he does.
“Lecrae exploits the church by reinforcing christian stereotypes.”
That makes no sense. How is Lecrae reinforcing Christian sterotypes?
Lecrae just fucking sucks. Gives the church a bad name by endorsing crap. Why can’t you fucking see that.
Also, Meek doesn’t brag. Lloyd banks is the one bragging.
Rap lyrics were built of braggadocio and boasting thats what people like to hear when they are playing music on the stoop and in the park or riding in the car with your boys. I listen to Lecrare on Sunday when I’m going to church, I listen to Meek on Saturday when I’m going to the club.
Lecrae doesn’t suck. So talking about faith, God, love, etc. is endorsing crap and giving the church a bad name? The same church who praises this guy nonstop. You are so ass-backwards, it’s hilarious.
Meek Mill does brag. You’re too stubborn to even notice it.
The churches are dumb to endorse lecrae. He’s basically shit on purpose. Almost like the devil’s work. Mill doesn’t even brag that much. That’s lloyd banks.
No, the churches are smart to endorse Lecrae since he’s helping spread their message. He’s not shit at all unlike Meek Mill, who does brag.
Give me a specific song where lecrae spreads the message. Bad songs don’t count. Mill still dope.
Fuck a song, listen to Lecrae’s album. They’re full of songs that spread the message. Meek Mill is still shit.
I listened to it and it was full of shit. How it did nearly 90k is beyond me. Certainly not the hiphop crowd bought it but the church moms that sing every fucking sunday.
It wasn’t full of shit. It did 90K because people (including those in the hip-hop crowd) were willing to buy it.
It’s kind of funny you criticize mill for brag rap when in the song, nuthin, lecrae is doing the exact same thing.
How is that funny? Nuthin’ is Lecrae criticizing brag rappers, not him doing any bragging.
if i may interject Lecrae isnt just criticizing brag rappers. he’s actually saying he is confident they can do better than that and is trying to lead an uprising against these slave labels to do just that.
What?
RITTZ IS A BOSS. NEXT TO NOTHING IS INSANE!
Gold is good for a collaboration EP. MMG ain’t gonna run shit. Ross hasn’t done anything to “revive” hip-hop and Eminem hasn’t done anything to kill it. I will choose to help hip-hop by buying Eminem’s record and not buying anything from MMG.”
You are only helping pop if you buy shady records’s album. MMG is true hiphop.
How am I helping pop by buying Shady Records’ album, which will be nothing but hip-hop songs? MMG ain’t true hip-hop.
Bosses sell more than 21k.
How is that funny? Nuthin’ is Lecrae criticizing brag rappers, not him doing any bragging.
That you’re being a fucking hypocrite as lecrae is bragging about women, money, and cars.
I’m not being a hypocrite at all, you are. Lecrae isn’t bragging about money, women, and cars, Meek Mill is doing that. Lecrae is criticizing rappers who do brag about that shit.
Even going with that statement, he’s a hypocrite as I’ve seen him with ladies and expensive cars.
You claim to see a lot of shit, but none of them are true.
He was literally outside the ymcmb studios. And we all know that he may criticize ross but if he were to see him in person, he would be begging for an autograph and a picture.
Your phony stories have no legs. If he saw Ross, he wouldn’t beg for an autograph and picture, he’d just go on about his business.
ITS NOT A FUCKING STORY IDOT!!! YOU MAY BE TALKING SHIT ABOUT ROSS BUT IF YOU SEE HIM, YOU WOULD BE BEGGING FOR A PICTURE!!
Yes, it is because you made it up on the spot. If I saw Ross, I move on about my business. I wouldn’t beg for a picture like a groupie bitch that you are.
You think you so tough on internet but you would be starstruck if you met ross. At least I can admit I would ask for an autograph. I would even ask the worst rappers for an autograph just because im starstruck.
Why would I be starstruck for someone I don’t like? Why would you be starstruck for someone you don’t like? That makes zero sense. It makes more sense to be starstruck of someone you like. Do you suffer from any brain damage?
Remember in 1980 where one person hated john lennon yet went to get his autograph just before he killed him? Do you have a negative IQ retard?
Mark David Chapman was a crazy former fan, that is not a good example. It’s you who has a negative IQ.
Unless you know him personally, haters will still come up to them for autographs.
I’m pretty sure if a sane person doesn’t like a famous person, they wouldn’t go up to them for autographs. That’s what people who likes the famous person does.
I think teethboy doesn’t even enjoy ross and wayne like he claims to be but just trolls a lot.
I troll you the best.
He even admits to being a troll. The jig is up.
Trolled him so hard he is talking about you instead of the sales.
Shady records are past their prime and Marshall is a shitty CEO.
You are supposed to pass the torch to the new generation but Marshall only supports the old rappers like Royce, and Crooked,
Rick Ross is older than Crook and Royce, So is 2 Chains. Whats your point.
The point is to pass the torch to young rappers you dumb bitch.
Sales have been low this year, no album has even gone Gold yet and only three albums reached 250K.
I feel bad for the rappers dropping albums in this climate.
Ross is close to gold though.
No, he isn’t.
Boss has the best selling album of 2014 but he stopped promoting it and moved on to a new one lol, he could have pimped two more singles and some videos out of MasterMind especially that Dream song and the ZRo one.
Nope.
Pharrell went gold even though his album isn’t technically hip-hop. Smh, Iggy will be gold by the end of the year. There really weren’t any huge releases yet. Schoolboy Q could have went gold if the promo, singles & overall album were better.
Yeah that is true album sales this year are looking very disappointing compared to last year and the year before last it seems pharrell and John legend are the only ones to archive gold albums atleast so far Iggy surprisingly has a slight chance maybe at going gold before the year is over we will see if she can maintain selling 10k to 15k or more a week in sales she’s been doing quite well holding her own so far so it’s a possibility her new classic album could gold ain’t that something huh a album that was a flop when it debut early this summer may end up on top after all with a gold plaque before the year ends it can happen Macklemores the heist album only sold 20k opening week major flop wouldn’t u agree but now look at it the heist ended up being a platinum hit album and the top selling album of 2012 so don’t count Iggy out she will at least get gold and hopefully other albums that dropped this will get gold like Rick Ross but like I said we will see if these artists can put some decent selling numbers on the board for overall album sales of 2014 cause right now 2014 is looking like a total flop for all top selling hip hop albums this year
Ricky is close to gold tho?
hes at 373K w/ Mastermind sellin bout 500 copies a week it aint going near gold this year or the next!
Barbra Streisand (Columbia) 155-165k
Chris Brown (RCA) 130-140k
Tim McGraw (Big Machine) 67-72k
George Strait (MCA Nashville) 45-50k
Train (Columbia) 40-45k
Slash (Dyk Hayd) 25-28k
For King & Country (Curb) 24-27k
Told ya Brown is flopping. Being a drake wannabe isn’t helping. Who pays to listen to Stresiand? She’s falling the fuck off.
How is Chris being a Drake wannabe? And do you accuse EVERY artist who aren’t your favorites of falling off?
SHE FUCKING SUCKS HATER!! GOD CANT YOU JUST LET ME HAVE MY FUCKING OPINIONS!!
“SHE FUCKING SUCKS HATER!!”
I’m not a fan of Barbara either, but doesn’t this make you a hater? You really shouldn’t throw stones in a glass house.
Im not hating. That’s truth. Big Difference.
I’m pretty sure you’re hating.
She sucks. That’s the truth. I don’t care, call me a hater.
MMG will rule the 4th Quarter.
Stalley – “OHIO”
Ricardo Rozay – “Hood Billionaire”
Wale – “The Album About Nothing”
Gunplay – “Living Legend”
No, they won’t. All of those records will flop.
Gunplay ain’t even coming out in the 4th quarter.
No they won’t flop.
All of those albums will make a profit because the infastructure at MMG is so efficient and everything is in-house. If you are semi involved or involved in the music business on any level you need to study their structure. You wasting your time Interning at DefJam/Atlantic just watch the machines at CM, and MM.
Yes, they will flop and Anonymous 5, that’s bullshit.
up to I looked at the check saying $4286 , I didn’t believe that my mom in-law realey receiving money parttime at their computer. . there friends cousin has done this for under twenty two months and resently cleared the dept on there condo and purchased Chevrolet . official website
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, http://WWW.WORKTAHI.COM
Don’t forget Omarion’s Chronicles Of A G double album and DVD box set with signed poster and coffee mug.
Stalley will flop because his fans don’t purchase any of his shit.
Ross’s shit will get pushed back at least until next summer.
There’s no way in hell Wale will get a 4th quarter release date again, so he’ll likely be out at the top of next year.
Gunplay will NEVER come out. That little buzz that he had is gone. Even going at 50 won’t get him a legit release date.
Stalley be lucky to sell 5K
Rozay WILL be pushed back till next year
Wale be the only artist on MMG to sell 100K
Gunplay WONT drop his album untill he finds the MMG chain
I guess we need to wait on Rozay’s Hood Billionaire album for some good music
Or look somewhere else for good music.
lol @ christian rappers
Take this 85er bullshit out of here
Where the Gods at
The gods that pretend to live righteous then rap about dealing drugs, materialism
and killing other black folk?
Must be talking about MMG.
Real talk + real thought = God breathed
The Jeezy album ain’t bad, but at the end of the day Ross defeats another one.
“Ross defeats another one.”
NOT!!
Who was the first…..Ross is buy albums bro
His profile aint that hight has no NUMBER ONE hits but still but out 100K first week but always have an 80% drop off the second week….SOME ONE IS BUYING THEIR OWN MUSIC….like Bey having a 75% increase for one month, 7 months after album drops…..Come on now
Ross and Jeezy both won, they settled their differences and made some dope songs together on their albums. They were both able to outsell 50 in one week.
Correction. Ross was the ultimate winner. Jeezy is wack ass pop. He had to crawl to YG for relevance, LMAO!!
Please. Ross didn’t win anything. Jeezy is not pop at all and YG crawled to him for relevance.
Ross beat Jeezy in opening week sales despite jeezy going pop. YG’s already relevant before jeezy.
jeezy going pop? explain
and then explain how jeezy went pop and rick ross didn’t
aaand yg became relevant 8 years after jeezys first album try again
Tip Coming.. October 21st!! 200k first week
Gunit will rule next Year
50Cent – Street King Immortal
Lloyd Banks – Cold Corner 3 and HFM3
Kidd Kidd – Street Frame
Young Buck – Legend of the South
Tony Yayo – Talk of NYC
the EP just a warm up
Stalley be lucky to sell 5K
Rozay WILL be pushed back till next year
Wale be the only artist on MMG to sell 100K
Gunplay WONT drop his album untill he finds the MMG chain
1. Stalley will sell at least 100k opening week. Won’t be the no.1 album with swift and wayne coming out but it will do well.
2. It’s true he could change the release date and I would prefer if he would push it back till next year but that’s only because i can’t buy everyone’s album on the same day. He won’t push it back because the lack of buzz. Ross is buzzing right now. He may just push it back due to competition or desire to make the album better. GFID and Mastermind wre both classics.
3. Wale will do at least 150k.
4. Again, blame Def Jam for the delay. MMG has nothing to do with it. If the triple c’s were to get out of the contract, its members would be at atlantic by now.
1. Stalley won’t even do 50K 1st week. He won’t do well.
2. Bullshit. Ross will push it back because of lack of buzz and oo much competition. Mastermind ad GFID are not classics.
3. No, he won’t. He’ll do less than that.
4. Def Jam isn’t to blame, MMG and Gunplay are.
what is ross buzzing with right now? that chris brown song? the elvis Presley song?
its going to get pushed back because elvis Presley is another box chevy that wont do anything for him the only person ross has to blame is himself
and stalley wont do more than 25-30k first week and I bet you wale will have better numbers than ross again
and def jam is trying to put gunplay out but he hasn’t had a song connect since bible in the dash…so blame mmg and gunplay
@Anon #3 unless you’re an industry executive, then kindly shit the fuck up, suburbanite nerd. Elvis Presley Bvld is yet another timeless Rick Ross classic that you can add to your Ipad or Droid phone and bump in the whip for hours, maybe even days. Hood Billionaire seems like album of the year material. I might just purchase 50 copies just to show my support. And I estimate that Stalley’s Ohio will sell at least 120k. Wale could possibly sell between 60-66k, so he’s in good shape. Either way, it’s another successful year for the MMG all stars.
Oh, look. Another MMG fanboy making up bullshit.
lmao @ Rozay….youre more than welcome to buy 50 copies with the money you saved from cleaning that 25 cent xxx video booth the last 5 years but that wont change anything
