[OFFICIAL] Tha Carter V Discussion Thread

[lilwayne-]

Proves my point again how promo doesn't mean sales. Nicki had great promo and is a big time artist and is about to sell barely over 150,000

thats low
do u know how much iggy did

[Zodiac!]

thats why i dont believe in projections. they projected Cole to do 150k or somehwere around there.

i wont even look at em anymore

It just show's it's very difficult nowerdays to project how much a record will sell and what's the best way to generate the maximum of sales. It seems announcing it few weeks before release and then giving the people 2-3 good songs and that's it is the best way to do it in these times.
U can't keep up peoples' attention over month and years the way they do it with c5.

This proves that you don't need a hot radio single and a great promo

All you need is loyal fans and quality music

I do not understand this post at all...

cole sold 360k, nicki predicted to sell 180k

She barely been out for 24 hours how they got predictions already?

based on shipments so its easy to predict

Birdman looks dumb AF now that Nicki is looking to sell around 150k. I know Wayne would've did more than Nicki because that's IANAHB numbers lol and Wayne barely promoted both of those albums

Im just confused i thought Nicki would sell so much more.. TBH its now looking like a smart move to not release C5 on the 9th. If theyd released it on the 28th of October it wouldve been ok, but the end of the year has been full to the brim with new music, and people can only buy so much..

I thought I read something yesterday where she had done 180k on day one? I might of misread.

I think that's her projected first week sales

I think that's the projected first-week sales, but obviously let's see what happens next Tuesday, might be higher than that.
