Folks at MTV speak their mind on what Drake’s debut album will sell in the first week. Bun B thinks 500k and I’ve gotta say a little less. Regardless, I’m with Joe Caramanica in that first week’s sales don’t matter. I hate how that has become the bar in which someone fails or succeeds. What about your second week’s numbers? Third? Tenth? Those are what really matter in my opinion. Also, after the jump Nicki Minaj speaks about the possibility of having 50 Cent on her upcoming album weed plate. *shrugs.

On his debut album, Drake raps about how alienated he feels when he drives luxury cars and sleeps with models….a first album is a strange place to run out of ideas.

Illmatic didn’t go platinum until 7 years after it released, that definitely means something.
TC said this on June 14th, 2010 at 7:40 pm
I bet there are at least 200K effeminate & confused Hip Hop/R&B fans that will buy this.
Ervin said this on June 14th, 2010 at 7:43 pm
yea itz a possibility n if he does i ain’t mad at him. i don’t bump dis cat regularly but it’ll b good fo’da industry if he sells big numbers
lonestar_playa said this on June 14th, 2010 at 7:44 pm
Whether it sells 50k, 500k, or 1000k, it’s still a bad sounding album.
Steve said this on June 14th, 2010 at 7:46 pm
Well, first off, “Thank Me Later”, is a great album. Hands down it has the potential to sell (first week) 350K-600K. That’s just my opinion. But, you don’t have many ppl buying albums too, but only just downloading them, which at times doesn’t matter. But, if they aren’t feeling this album like others. THAT is what’s gonna bring the sales lower than what is expected, imo.
Besides his pussy comment about Lil Kim I was all aboard the Drake bandwagon, seriously. But, to show that much disrespect towards someone for one is a FEMALE MC, and a VETERAN at that. Shows he think he can say all of what HE wants and he’s STILL A NOBODY! A mixtape ain’t shit, whether it’s one of the greatest ones, if you have no ALBUM to back you up then what’s the use of talking about YOU, smh. Again that’s just me.

You see, what people are forgetting is, eventually they actually have to listen to the CD. It’s ok.
This is NOT Illmatic…it’s not even Adventures of Bobby Ray. Drake needs to stop comparing himself to classic acts. His stuff WILL sell, but not at all for the right reasons. I’m guessing 150k first week.
Lemme just ask…why is Drake so popular? I’m not hating, I’m seriously curious. He’s not really unique. People say he’s a positive voice of normal people, but I don’t see how that is. Nothing about his story is easy to relate to. He was an actor and then started rapping. I dunno…

BlackStarr said this on June 14th, 2010 at 8:12 pm

spitfresh said this on June 14th, 2010 at 8:19 pm
yea Carter III was mediocre, garbage really, and that didn’t stop that bitch from doing a million…females don’t know what the difference between mediocre albums and dope albums are, their buying into the image, and thinking every song is about them…and that’s who we’re talking about when it comes to who’s buying Drake’s shit…though it seems like it, don’t think Drake got that “all buy whatever real album (not that rebirth shit) he puts out” hype like wayne does though
KoJ_the_YDC said this on June 14th, 2010 at 8:19 pm
There’s a huge possibility he could pull it off. Without sounding like a diss, think about the fanbases:
TeenNick crowd, who he locked in from the Degrassi days
R&B Loving Females
Fans who’ve been rocking with dude since he was underground,
Lil Wayne’s fan base he vicariously acquired via the affiliation
And then of course the Jay-Z and Kanye cosigns, not to mention a bunch of other stuff. Name another new artist dropping a debut album that had that many accolades attached to their name and brand? I don’t think a million is farfetched at all, but maybe a “Million” nowadays is more like 500,000. We’ll just have to see.

Good album, not a hip-hop album strictly. I think dude makes good music overall, doesn’t have to be lyrically breath taking to simply be good. I like the vibe of the album as do most people who don’t frequent this site. I predict 750,000+
hmmmm? said this on June 14th, 2010 at 8:22 pm
and you can’t name illmatic in terms of sales because it was different times back then, it has nothing to do with content of albums…now it’s full blown machines behind “hot” artists…illmatic probably wouldn’t sell that much in today’s times either
KoJ_the_YDC said this on June 14th, 2010 at 8:23 pm

I love the people here, the majority of you cunts, who seem to have a personal disdain for a 23 year old kid trying to sell his album. It’s quite humorous frankly, as he will go platinum and you will all come to this site to bitch about it in comment sections. Enjoy your cynicism, and Drake must be doing something right to trigger such angered/bitter responses from clowns such as yourselves.
hmmmm? said this on June 14th, 2010 at 8:34 pm
How fucking clear do I have to make myself, I am saying that Thank Me Later does not come close to Illmatic but will probably sell more because album sales don’t mean shit.

ILLADEL said this on June 14th, 2010 at 8:47 pm
@OU812
Maybe I’m not just a hater like some people. I like dude’s music, so I support it. Point blank. I think a lot of people such as yourself probably give it a listen to, because you take time to comment on his posts. If you didn’t like the music and weren’t a “hater”, but just simply someone who disliked his music, you wouldn’t even give him the time of day. What dos my support of an artist have to do with you? Nothing.
And he was “underground”. That’s the term used for someone unsigned, regardless of how many “hip-hop purist” type heads want to act like “underground” is a genre within itself with a distinct sound or something. That’s just what some people generalized it as. The literal term describes an unsigned artist.
*shrugs. The album was dope to me. There were a few things that could have been better, but overall, it was good. You either like it or you don’t. So what?
M. Hannah said this on June 14th, 2010 at 8:48 pm

Sales dont mean anything, with the way people just download albums we can never know how much really sells, no matter what, I think drake has enough fanboys to buy watever is on any record as long as he puts his name on it. i think at least 500 even though its garbage

u all know this question is irrelevant? it’s like guessing the weight of a baby? … really?… the only thing the dude or anyone behind him should care is that has healthy first week sales.. why does anybody want him to fail? why would u want anyone you dont know to fail? … hes not ruining hip hop.. hes jackin flows from dead prez.. jacking melodys from every soul artist that ever came.. and he’s a prolly a fairly smart dude.. hes got some clever lines.. i like resitance.. I guess.. fireworks is cool, I dunno, hes just another artist with a cd, I don’t really get it? .. lets just wish him good luck.. and move on…. somebody else did I think, i’ll jump on that train.. good luck.

@NickolasReid granted some people want him to fail, but most have heard the whole album, and its one of those albums u listen to once and dont have a desire to listen to again. also his hype and arrogance would make one think it would be legendary. i like drake, but the album is bad. All his mixtapes are better than it. and songs like “bollywood flow” somehow dont make the album when it blows most the songs on there out the water. (Maybe whomever compiled the albums fault more so than drake)
Monroe said this on June 14th, 2010 at 9:23 pm
@Monroe… You clearly don’t like the dude. You saying the album is bad as though it’s an accepted fact immediately makes you lose any credibility you had and officially labels you as nothing more than a hater. The album is dope, great vibe throughout with some dope guests (minus Nicki).

1 milli….no way! All the songs on the album sounds the same and his buzz peaked about 6 months ago.

(and your a fool if u think she didnt carry her weight on it) that and the following track “fancy”. other than those 2 songs (and “over”) id much rather listen to “comeback season” or “So far gone” if im in the mood for drake. If i want R&B imma listen to trey songz or alicia keys, not autotune music. but the few he raps on our dope.

BOB solid? As a pop album, sure.
The hybridization of rap and pop is and has been among us. Hip-pop is the next big thing, word to drake and Bob.
Drake, even with the leak, will probably sell 800k the first week. Mark my words. There are still thousands out there that don’t download music illegally, along with those that do but still support and buy the album. I sure as hell won’t be one of them but to he his own.
Sharkskin said this on June 15th, 2010 at 12:20 am
Drake is a queer.. as I’ve said before half his album material is whining about his “newfound fame” who the fuck would pay to hear that bullshit. NOT ME. First post hit it on the head.
zookeeper said this on June 15th, 2010 at 12:25 am
So, all ya’ll saying Drake is going to sell are saying in other words that DRAKE is going to buck the record industry trend?????? The Record Industry is DEAD. And the album leaked. And even if Drake sells the American & Canadian market for music is a bunch of flavor of the week ADD New Jersey Shore MTV consumers. B.E.P., Ke$ha, Katy Perry, & Glee are topping the charts. The only thing that will keep this album exposed for a sustained period of time is payola.
Youngstown said this on June 15th, 2010 at 12:31 am
@ zookeeper – yeah, Drake’s rappin like he’s bored with fame, bitches, fame & fortune on his first album. A little pretentious for the actor turned wannabe rapper who should really stick with R&B music. Wayne fed this dudes ego too much.

there was a million copies shipped out, if he sells every copy is beyond me, he’s doing in the 200-600K range first week, whatever tour they do for the album will be big, hopefully Kanye’s album drops soon enough for both of them to tour together…

sorry i could barely stand ‘over’.. i told my friend i was not feeling drake anymore he went from singing love songs for us females to talking about all his haters… we get it people dont like you but to center a whole album around it? BOOO im not dropping a penny to buy that

BITCH SHUT THE HELLLLL UP!
He doesn’t even talk about haters throughout the album. Listen to the damn lyrics you ass. He speaks about his uncertainties and the paranoia that he encounters along with fame. How this newfound fame has ruined his love life. His newfound friendships. How becoming a superstar in a matter of moments has lead to conflicts in his personal life. Not even just that. So much other stuff. And he isn’t not singing and just rapping. Every song is a mix of RnB and Rap. He is afterall a crossover artist. Some of the songs are completely RnB with Rap-like verses near the end which even than are sung.

And you suckface nigga up the boards who said its all about fame. Your wrong. He’s using that fame he found as a premise to impress upon us his introspections. That introspection leaves us with a vague amounts of information on his personal life which allows for contemplation and a sense of familiarity. If you take it and don’t diss the material and listen and THINK about what your hearing. Which is the conceptual difference between hearing and listening. Passive / Active. Ya know? But LISTEN, THINK, and see how you can relate to the songs. He’s not constantly swaggering up and boasting. Your just reading only skin deep into the music.

This domain appears to get a good ammount of visitors. How do you advertise it? It offers a nice individual twist on things. I guess having something authentic or substantial to post about is the most important thing.
