Re: i am not a human being went gold
OK you will be warned for that comment , however also to prove your point further..
Kanye's best selling album was Graduation, it came in around 900k first week sales. Then he released a experimental album and then he released MBDTF, which is the so called next chapter in his hip/hop albums, also arguably has 100 percent ratings across the board, mad promotion and so on and so forth but it only sold barely 500k first week.
Now let's compare this with Wayne, C3 - 1 milli first week, then experimental album ..didn't do so great, wasn't received by the general public but aii it;s an experimental album so we'll let it go. Next comes IANAHB ..now to us we know the full story but to the general public the people who buy albums and create sales this album could be considered the next chapter in his hip/hop albums and quite frankly it hasn't really done that well 500k , ok not so much promotion but still. If it was good material it would have virally spread and people would have bought it. SO logically by taking into account all of this, the NORMAL consumer, not us, the normal consumer would think this is the type of music Wayne spitting now and it definitely is not Carter material. So until we hear a single or sample the direction he has chosen on this album to start predicting whether or not it will be the best selling piece of work ever is not viable.
It's also important to note that C3 sold so well because of lolipop. Lolipop single handedly made sure that C3 sold out..it's a monster single which was received very fucking well. Was played everywhere. Now until something like that drops for C4 it is definitely not going to be making those numbers.
