Nicki Minaj "The Pinkprint" on Pace to Sell 155-165k First Week

[Street Knowledge]

D'Angelo won. How many artists who was popping in 2000 could drop right now and do 100,000 the first week

 

[PhonZhi]

This!! Phonte, Elzhi, 9th Wonder, AZ and other REAL artists could drop and album tomorrow wit no promo and im coppin same day. Why? Cuz im a real fan. I dont need a HUGE single to tell me to go buy and album and support. I bought Royce/Preemo album album without hearing 1 song.

"Is that 'i' shyt even catching at radio yet?"

What does it even matter? Anaconda ALL over the radio. Cole got no singles from his album on the radio and doing like 300k first week. More than Nicki.

Kendrick got a really strong and supportive fanbase

A hot single doesn't mean your album gonna do great numbers. The shift is coming where artist aren't even gonna need a hot single to sell albums. They just gotta continue delivering to their fanbase. Which is exactly what Cole is proving.

Diehard supportive fanbase will always triumph > a single that's getting tons of radio play.

[☑︎#VoteDemocrat]

Drake ain't going gold first week next album cycle.

Overall? Definitely.

"I seen it all, did it all/most of y'all will pop for a minute, spit a sentence, and the game will get rid of y'all"

YMCMB outside of Drake is over. Cole and Kendrick officially run this era now.

nobody in chicago bump j cole or kendrick
thats too soft for our taste

 

[Versa]

Say that to all the strippers in ATL and Houston.

They look pretty nasty to me, but I'm not a fan of diaper shaped booty and kitties shaped like oranges

Does anyone in chicago bump common, Kanye, chance and Lupe or do y'all only like that hateful, destructive, poison music these days?

 

[Uncle_Ruckus]

That ain't good.
Last album did 250K first week.
She should have shown some ass on the album cover.

 

[JamesCannon]

That's cool. She not done. So the fall off will be even more prolongued and ungraceful

I'm ready.

 

[Omerta]

she probably has more marketing and promotion than any rapper out there seriously, even more than an Eminem.

Only she is getting promos with Today, GMA, Ellen, ESPN, BET, MTV, Perez Hilton, hosting MTV awards etc. etc.

She has singles with pop stars where the song is played all day on pop stations and songs with rappers played all day on rap stations all day.

and again she releases a garbage album which is a flop. 2 times in a row. In about 6 months time, there will be a Pinkprint Reloaded...just wait for it..

yep...they really spending a lot of money on her....Roc Nation aint spend shyt on J cole...The most it took was J cole tweeting the itunes link. No features, and he prod. like 80% of it.

Nicki on the other hand got like 20 songs 20 diff producers 10 features lmaooo.
