After a full week in stores, Game's compilation album- Blue Moon: Year Of The Wolf sold 32,885 copies. This is his first release under his independent label, Blood Money Entertainment (under eOne Music). This is about what I thought he would sell, so he did okay. This wasn't like a solo album, but more like a compilation album. And without Interscope behind him anymore, he did okay with these numbers. I think his 6th album, The Documentary 2, which is set to be released next year January should do around 60-70k first week. That would be cool for an independent release.
Below is the press release from his new parent label, eOne Music speaking on the first week sales of the Year Of The Wolf album.
