The real success story here is Kevin Gates, whose debut album, Islah, was released Friday, and is looking to do 75-80,000, (80-85,000 with streams) its first week. The HDD projections have him matching the sales of pop sensation Sia, who released her new album the same day.
Gates' is known to have a very loyal regional following, and the iTunes release of his 2014 mixtape, Luca Brasi 2 (which was also available for free) did over 20k in its first week, so Kevin's numbers shouldn't be all that surprising, though they remain impressive.
