Dammmmmmmmmmnnnn, that's some serious sellin'

Doesn't that make him the biggest rapper at the moment? fame wise.

I honestly can't stand him though, with his horrible voice & retarded persona. If you can find me an interview where he comes across even slightly intelligent? I would be surprised.

Yeah right. Watching him on ESPN was embarrassing. I couldnt even watch. He tried to come off as some serious sports guy by making crazy bold predictions and then saying "you watch". He had no idea what he was saying.

Projections went up.. Again :smoking:

Weezy has his sights set on 1m as his Cash Money/Universal Republic Tha Carter IV shows no signs of slowing down. There are many variables this week as VMA performers are seeing huge increases, the East Coast cleans up after Hurricane Irene, a Monday release date and the approaching Labor Day weekend, which could swing the numbers in any direction. Here's how it looks headed into the long weekend:

*Lil Wayne (Cash Money/Universal Republic) 925-975k

*Red Hot Chili Peppers (Warner Bros.) 215-240k
Adele 21 (XL/Columbia) 125-150k
Jay Z & Kanye West (Roc-a-Fella/Roc Nation) 80-85k
*David Guetta (Capitol/EMI) 45-50k
*Jake Owen (RCA Nashville) 45-50k
Game (Interscope) 40-45k
Beyonce (Columbia) 35-40k
Now 39 (Capitol/EMI) 30-35k
Barbra Streisand (Columbia) 30-35k
Foster the People (Columbia) 27-30k
Luke Bryan (Capitol Nashville) 27-30k
Lady Gaga (Interscope) 24-27k
Jason Aldean (Broken Bow) 24-27k
Adele 19 (XL/Columbia) 21-24k

Wow, those sales are impeccable for a hip hop album in this day and age :y:

I have to admit though, C4 definitely wore off me after a couple of days, but that's for another thread

Sh.., Thats' only half if they like you
That ain't even the half what they might do
Don't believe me, ask Michael
See Martin, see Malcolm
You see Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome

Didn't you say it would sell over 2 million or something?

I agree though, Wayne is moving more units than I would have expected.

It's impressive, however had em delayed the release as much as wayne did, released a mixtape called sorry for the wait hyping the album up, had a VMA performance the day before it was released, and dissed jay z he'd push 1.3 mil..

no, he was relevant before. That shot wasn't even a big deal, stop hating and admit that Lil Wayne has this rap shit on lock.
Lilwayne4life deserves to brag his favorite artist came through, again.

It was a horrible album, that being said these were the only songs I kept on my ipod out the whole album

Megaman: Hot Beat, just for musical and nice track.
6 foot 7: same as megaman and john
She Will: Liked Drake's part and the beat.
Interlude: Tech N9ne> Nas> Every other verse on the album
John: Same as Megaman
It's Good: Drake Verse
Outro: Nas and Busta and Bun B was cool
Mirror: The best track that actually has Wayne on it. Bruno should have done the whole track himself.

Wayne verses were forgettable so I can't say anything about it.
