The Blueprint IV vs. Tha Carter V ("Which Will Sell More?" Discussion)

[spennyj69]

I truely think C5 sales will be based on the first single. If its a pussy filled song that will turn a lot of "Hip Hop heads" away from it but if it's some good classic Wayne a million first week should be expected IMO

[YMCMB357]

FIRST WEEK SALES:


The Blueprint - 420,000 (Jay-z 6th studio album)
The Blueprint 2 - 545,000
The Blueprint 3 - 476,000


Tha Carter - 116,000 (Lil Wayne's 4th studio album)
Tha Carter II - 238,000 (not 100% positive)
Tha Carter III - 1,005,545 (Lil Wayne's 6th studio album)
Tha Carter IV - 964,000

I guess Lil Wayne will win with sales by looking at them numbers.

He said that in 2011 though .. since then he has said "I said I might retire, You know I'll be high"

Nobody knows when he's going to retire and I don't think even Wayne knows either.

I understand, it might be 2018 or not who knows, as you said I even agree, I don't think even Wayne knows.

Wayne has lost alot fans since his drop in lyricism n every song being about pussy, he has to go back to his old style to surpass jay z

[DaFinest]

Jigga has always been a fad to me ever since I was a kid....I think you guys are underestimating the severity of C5(last album)...it will do better than hov's album...in both aspects...

[Nawy]

Wayne will sell more and put out a better album... I know he won't fuck up C5.

he's gotta get back up on that old carter flow, then it'll be a battle. otherwise i don't see him beating jay.
but knowing weezy he'll surprise us like always

Its gonna depend on Jay's singles tbh. Wayne lost a lot of fans after C4 was such a big disappointment. Plus he had hit singles on C4, so that helped his sales a lot. But I'd bet anybody here that C5 doesn't crack 900k shipped in a week tbh.

both could do 500,000 first week easy more than that would be based off the success of singles and promotion. Lyrically they would both be at the top of their games if it was in fact their last albums so there would really be no way to compare just based off personal preferences. Comparing the albums I would think Jay's would probably play through better since Wayne's albums never really have any order to them. Flow wise I think Wayne would have the potential to beat Jay there, but that is assuming he could get back to his prime form. Honestly I would buy BOTH!
