Young Jeezy chose the perfect time to drop his album...little competition, and a holiday season. And his fans backed him all the way. TM 103: Hustler's Ambition has succeeded in being the highest selling rap album this week...it sold 233,000 copies after a week in stores. I think that is really impressive for a gangsta rap album. Right now, if you are not jay, kanye, eminem, t.i or a member of cash money records, it is hard to sell above 200k first week. So, i say congratulations to Young jeezy and all his fans that made this happen.Drake's Take Care album sold 131,000 copies this week...that's 20k more than what he sold last week. I knew he was going to have an increase in sales this week. He is now at a total of 1,175,000 copies total. And i am sure he would be at 1.5 mill by end of Jan 2012.
Common's The Dreamer/The Believer sold 69,000 copies in its first week in stores. I predicted it would sell between 60-120k first week, so i am onpoint with that prediction. Lil Wayne sold 56,000 copies of his Carter 4 album this week, and is now at a total of 1,882,000 copies sold.
Snoop and Whiz Khalifa's Mac & Devin Go To High School Soundtrack sold 20,000 copies this week, to now total at 59,000 copies. The Roots moved 18,000 copies of their Undun album this week, and are now at a total of 84,000 copies.
Roscoe Dash's J.U.I.C.E album sold 9,500 copies in its first week out. Childish Gambino's Camp sold 8,700 copies this week, and is now at a total of 92,000 copies sold so far.
