Re: Tha Carter IV will never sell 1 Mil first week

well looking back on IANAHB and Rebirth ..they didn't sell well first week? OK we can forget Rebirth because it's an experimental album but IANAHB?? you guys are going to pin it down to publicity or what? Whatever it is ..Wayne's not going to sell more than Em period. Just for the fact that Em's fans actually go out and buy music and the people that bought Wayne's album in 08 were mostly bitches and white kids banging to lolipop and a milli ..if he puts shit like that out with the same vibe then we can talk

lil wayne will sell more than em period. IANAHB was a rushed album..

Re: Tha Carter IV will never sell 1 Mil first week

Yeah but from other statistic you can predict things. It's common sense, fools.

So you're saying from the fact that C3 sold a mill, we could have automatically predicted Rebirth & IAMAHB doing a milli too? No. It just depends what kind of music hes putting out, what singles he has, what competition he will be up against. The highest selling rap album (I think) since C3 was Recovery. And the success of that album was mostly cause of the die-hard Em fans, plus the success of his singles. Just ONE of his single videos has almost the same amount of views on his Vevo Youtube account as Wayne's ENTIRE Vevo Youtube. His singles were that big. So until we know how big his singles are, if any of the big album songs leak, his competition around the time of his release, etc... You can't even nearly predict album sales. Yeah sure, you can have the Wayne fans thinking "Oh yeah, hes going to easily sell a million" and you can have some fans who have common sense who know the factors that play into having an album selling that high saying they aren't sure what it will sell. But really, until you see the other factors that go into the album sales, you can't really predict anything.

People said the same thing about C3, but i agree it won't sell 1 mill first week... More like 2 milli

Nah jk i'll say it will sell anywhere from 800k-1.2 million first week.

^^^ This.......I Agree.....The only thing that is certain about wayne sales is that it will break 100K.....but him becoming a force to reckon with is left to him and the singles he choose and the songs he create.....Carter IV cannot sound like anything he has done before....His rhymes gotta be his best, his production the best,, his concepts the best, his story telling the best....his features the best..the promotion gotta be on point....because this album with solidify his artistry ...Everything has to be Carter IV ready ...nothing can be blamed on it being experimental or rushing because of jaill......no half assing or slacking just Wayne showing that he has evolved as an artist...showing his range in subjects and proving he can stand the test of time......

This entire thread makes my head hurt

And the person asking about a CIV thread, that would be dumb this far out. It would be all spam
