First Week Sales Prediction of Common's The Dreamer/The Believer

The Dreamer/The Believer is Common's 9th album in his 19 year career. I bet some people don't know he has been here for that long. His first album, "Can I Borrow A Dollar", dropped in 1992, via Relativity Records. Another thing people don't know about common is that his first three albums ("Can I borrow a dollar?", "resurrection", and "one day it'll all make sense") were heavily produced by none other than NO.ID. Okay, enough of the history lesson, i came to give a first week prediction of Common's The Dreemer/The Believer album.





Common has never been an artist to sell millions. He has never sold a million copies with any album, but that doesn't take away the fact that he is a legend in Hip Hop. He is a damn good rapper, and it is great that he is still around in 2011. Probably the highest selling first week debut of his career would be 2007's Finding Forever which sold 155,000 copies first week, which later earned him a Gold Plague. I would say The Dreamer/The Believer would sell between 60-120k first week.


The album drops in 4 days time...December 20 to be precise.
