No, he won't have the same sales. When How to Love dropped I was a junior in high school with a little sister in middle school - her and all her friends bought the single and album only because of that song - before they had no idea what a little wayne was.

[MENTION=57220]YM Salute[/MENTION] And you're acting like superstars shine as bright as they do in their peek forever. I'm probably just as big of a Wayne fan as you are, and if not, big deal - I'm still a huge fan. The reality of the music business is that artists don't sell half as much as they did in 07 and every year it gets worse. With Wayne's case EVEN worse, right now he is not above music as harsh it sounds to your bias ears. I hold my ground at no more than 675k first week no matter the case.

People will buy Carter V just because Wayne said that it's his last album.. It was a marketing trick..

And that's not necessarily true because Eminem maintained a high status. Superstars have reasons why they could last for a long time. 50 Cent isn't that case, because his style of rapping has become outdated and he hasn't adjusted well. Eminem's name is cemented as big, and Wayne's name will always be known/huge. Only thing is that album sales is based off of how ACTIVE you are in the industry and appealing. Seriously, Wayne hasn't been as active and on a large variety of songs in a long time (mainly 05-08 era). That's probably why you have a gut feeling he won't sell as much.
Carter 5 trended on Twitter a while ago numerous times actually. Eminem and Wayne are only ones that could still even be capable of dropping albums that push 1mil+. Eminem didn't with MMLP2 and now we'll see with C5.
And don't fucking call me bias because I easily point out when Wayne's at wrong and when he drops some shit music, so don't get shit twisted at all my nigga.
