The week’s sale projections are here.
The Game’s new 1992 album is expected to sell somewhere between 21,000 and 24,000 copies without taking streams into account. With the streams factored in, it looks like the album is still coming in under the 30,000 mark, with the cumulative total at around 27,000 sales maximum, according to projections from Hits Daily Double.
The Game’s most recent album, Documentary 2.5, moved 48,000 equivalent album units when it debuted last October. Despite the reduction, 1992 is still poised to outsell what Meek Mill predicted on his “OOOUUU” remix.

Meanwhile, Gucci Mane’s latest effort Woptober is expected to sell around 20,000 equivalent album units, based solely off streams.
Woptober follows hot on the heels of this summer’s Everybody Looking, which peaked at #2 on the Billboard 200 chart. The ATL rapper has also announced his third post-prison project The Return of East Atlanta Santa, expected December 16.
Well, the good news for Game is Meek now owes him $1,000,000 as he passed the 15,000 unit threshold. The bad news is 30,000 units with streams is still a pretty weak number
That depends. If you say 30k, independent, 12 songs, streams. Keep in mind that he gets money everytime you stream a song. I’d say he’s good.
Time for quality to outweigh sales all over again
REALLY? AFTER CREATING A FAKE BEEF, CAUSING ALL THIS COMMOTION AND NONSENSE THIS ALBUM SOLD 27K? SERIOUSLY? WITH ALL THE ATTENTION GRABBING, THROWING IN MINAJ NAME AND PICKING AN EASY TARGET LIKE MEEK THIS FOOL COULDN’T EVEN CRACK 100K? SMH. DAMN. THE RAP GAME Fed UP.
Damn, after all that beefing with Meek and Sean Kingston, only 27k? The album is fire, though.
1992 gonna do 90 thousand first week watch
MEEK MILL isn’t going pay game pest100.000.000 he to lame he was just talking
Tbh thats not bad, he didnt really push a single, no drake feature lls, n no radio play so Game is winning cuz no money spent on promos n features means money gained
The game has
Changed
His album
Is fire
Sales
Are
A thing
Of
The
Past now!
The Game was on wendy williams, breakfast club, and every other popular show, not to mention all the diss records. Anything under 40k is a let down.
Remember back when 6 figures was normal for big name artists.
lack of marketing = lack of sales
damn i remember 9 years ago when when G Unit TOS album sold 200k the first week was a “flop”. Game was laughing.
Times have changed.
Right? These #’s woulda had the label ready to drop his ass
o that drama 4 20k plus..lmao!!! he should name dropd a lil bit more times
These rappers need to understand that people don’t care about the guy saying the diss, they just love hearing someone that they hate, being dissed LOL. Joe Budden spit fire at Drake and Drake haters loved it but there was no real gains by Budden. Meek haters loved 92 bars and I’m talking millions of views on YouTube but that only translated into 27k total sales?! He has millions of followers on instagram and still only 27k? Let me say this though, THE ALBUM IS PURE FIRE AND ONE OF THE BEST I’VE HEARD IN YEARS!
All that controversy for these kind of #’s. His next album he better get locked up for punching his dad’s girlfriend son for snatching his chain during a robbery that his manager had setup while performing in Brooklyn then Blame it on HOV. That will get him like 47k units
Game doing what he does best with that album cover biting snoops style pretty pathetic when you bite someones style from your area dipshit
They aren’t from the same area.
do little research before write some dumb shit. The artist who made Doggystyle album cover also THE SAME PERSON WHO MADE THIS ALBUM COVER. you idiot.
A lot of people saying how its a flop. I would love to know how people know this is a flop. None of us know how much money was actually used to make this CD for all we know Game could be tripling his money and in any business venture that would be a success. P.S. when you don’t have the labels taking all your money 20,000 copies is the equivalent of going diamond. Game Making $5 to $7 dollars a album compared to people like Drake, Meek, Future and French who get like 10 to 20 cents a album. Women and men lie but numbers don’t, unless ya’ll don’t know the truth behind the numbers..
True facts
Nobody buys Albums anymore, Its very few and far between ppl stream and just download singles, Its not like it used to be selling C.Ds is pretty much on life support now. Only one in very few few artist can still mange to sell c.ds This is called getting by now. the days where every name artist would sell atleast 60-100k minimum are done. Its a decent album tho.
Adele just sold 3.3 Millie the first week and Drake did 1.1 so try again
Cant believe almost 10 years ago some rappers like Fifty or Lil Wayne sold a million albums the first week …
Now a nigga can’t sell more than 50,000 units a week despite all the plateforms he has to promote his shit (youtube, instagram, twitter, snapchat, etc.).
The real money an artist can get now is when he stays independant and travel the world to book some concerts…
Guwop figured it out….just keep hitting them over the head til something sticks…he gonna drop at least 4 times a year…so he making up the deficit with quantity
Game did this to sell albums and still flopped. The Game is taking a major L because he’s on a label and Gucci is not. 20,000 for an independent artist is cool.
Guccimane is on Atlantic records
game’s not on a label
Game’s not on a label either so you’re really saying he did pretty good numbers too you dumb fuck
Nigga usher only sold 35,000 first week facts selling black music especially.. We will see meek rat ass sell 1000 copies he hasent dropped and album since he caught them 2 L’s from game and drizzy he won’t sell 200’000 first week ever again 1992 is classic facts!!
excuses..lmao! no1 cares enaf about game to buy his name dropping albums anymore.. so dont act suprised.. y’all thot it wud do better than that??gtfoh!!! lucky it wasn’t the 15k meek said it wud b..lol!!! Back to the strip club butterfly thug..
You probably a rat like meek
Like I said with out drake rap album sales would be a joke. Drake is rap music at this point he runs the rap game. Take drakes numbers out of the rap game and rap music would be the lowest selling genre of music. You hipsters dont buy music you are all broke irrelevant hating losers stuck in the 90s. Us drake fans actually support the rap god.
U Must B Under 16 Lol. Drake Is Doing Numbers, True But Other Are Also Doing Numbers. Kendrick Sold 1Million, J Cole Sold 1Million Future Sold 1.5Million Meek Mill And Wale Sold Half A Million That’s 4Million Combined.
Coming a dude who sold 30 copies
