[OFFICIAL] Tha Carter V Discussion Thread

[WeezyFTune]

You have to admit it's not usual to have an album dropping in 8 days and still have no pre-order link or news of any kind tho

So what? Usual gets boring dude. We need variation in the music industry. There's reasons that no albums have gone platinum this year, lack of originality and lack of quality

[YMCMB357]

Really want Wayne to sell a milli, no one else has done it yet in 2014...

I think it's only Eminem who can do that this year =/

If MMLP 2 didnt went platinum first week then SHADYXV wont deffinetly.

[LilTunƎchi]

This exactly. People think Tez is some sort of moron. The man is an accomplished manager. He knows what he's doing

He really doesn't bro.

Isn't Em's new album gonna be a double disk though?

No problem by me. I'm here for the same as you: new music from wayne with quality

Shit you're right, forgot bout that.

Can see it selling 500k first week so yeah that probably will be platinum.

True. Look at mmlp2 promotion, first released survival as a theme song for call of duty which every american teenager plays all day. Then followed berzerk which was the radio hit single and was playing all the time on the radio. Then he released the monster with the big pop feature 'rihanna' which had everyone rushing to listen to the song and also played on radio alot. Finally 'rap god' which was the 6 mins lyrical single which targetted the raw hip hop fans and got them excited for the album and also got massive radio plays. All singles were followed by a music video and all of them scored more than 100m views (im not sure). It did 760k first week afterall. A milli is very hard to hit these days tho. This is the kind of promotion C5 needed.

[EuroThaBest]

So new information about C5?

Once again, the name MMLP2 sold itself. If he hadn't released a single at all, or even just one he still would've done the same numbers. MMLP is a legendary album, so a sequel would sell with or without those singles.

Same with Wayne. Tha Carters are legendary, and doesn't need singles or anything to promote it. People talk about Wayne enough. They are either praising him or hating him, but they are still talking about him, and Tha Carter series
