I'm more impressed by Common's numbers tbh...that snoop album is everywhere, they're promoting like like crazy. It's actually underwhelming tbh

I’d say for name recognition LL, Snoop and Dre are equals.
Common a little less but he’s still a big name within entertainment
Point is their all legacy acts. All 30 years in. Cracking 30k as a legacy act in the streaming era is a W in my opinion.

Exactly. And that’s what annoyed me about the haggling over Nas sales these last couple years. I forgot which KD did nearly 60k first week…that’s insane success. Should be celebrated. Instead we had people trolling and hating lol.
KD1- 45k first week
KD2- 56k First week
Magic 1- 22k first week
KD3- 30k First week
Magic 2- 21k First Week
Magic 3- 16k first week
With Magic 3 he dropped it on a Thursday to celebrate his birthday so he missed out a whole day’s worth of streaming and he didn’t drop a single or video until months after release. For the albums where he bothered to promote and had videos he easily was doing 30-50k.
These are good numbers for an artist like Nas though, cuz dude never goes crazy on the promotion... 36k for snoop and dre with all that promotion is not good at all. I don't think people realize the label put more money to promote Missionary than any other album released in the last 10 years.

I was at the XXL just trying to excel / Networking, meanwhile my stomach turning / Wanted to be a part of it cater it to my audience / J. Cole runnin' late / If he don't show up, think I can take his place / Ladies start laughing / No pun intended I ain't being sarcastic
Homie popped up with about twenty bags and / Fresh out the plane I couldn't even complain / My nikka was on his hustle I introduced him my name / Said I'll see him on the bubble in the future, my dude I salute ya / Contributing the real shyt
Crazy to think when he quoted that his perspective was that he was under the totem as far as buzz/popularity to Cole (The Warm Up came through heavy).... fastforward to the present and look how everything played out. Saluted and kept working till his Shine came. Prime example to never hate just congratulate, work and wait.
