Regarding that first week number, nothing has come out yet. I’ve seen a couple of tweets saying 5k from random Drake stan accounts but nothing official or a news thing circulating, it probably low if it didn’t chart but yeah I ain’t seeing anything with the actual number either
magic 3 did 16k

no way this album don’t do at least 10k

100! That’s why I don’t even post in these has threads as much after seeing the female tendencies these dudes have and it’s the ones that are the biggest stans In here. I been said these dudes were jay fans first and became fans after ether and like the part of nas that experiment. Not the real nas. Then use my words and say other dudes aint “men”

picture me in the barber shop with unknowns and I critique the album and we hear someone say “this is why nas needs to move on and stop trying to give his true fans what they want. His fans are such flip floppers” Can you imagine that type of response during a barbershop discussion?
someone even said Eminem should have been on writers when the shyt is a song dedicated to graffiti writers. :snoop: ..

FACTS!

These dudes ain't real Nas fans. They just hate Jay now. I've been saying that forever. Jay ain't really active to hate on. So they just don’t like Nas now. They don’t even know his history or Preem's, but they're trying to tell us how a Premier and Nas album should sound because this one "doesn't work". As if they know better than two GOAT's, lol. If it's not that, we got weirdos in here critiquing songs they admittedly don’t even know the meaning behind.

A lot of bums exposed themselves when this album dropped. You can definitely tell who's not really from the community or culture. One of these MF's told me that Nas needs to "just make a regular album". WTF? LOL!! Madness.

NY State of Mind Pt 3 and 3rd Childhood are the weakest tracks on this album.

I'm confused, that twitter link says the album is selling 100k first week, where is the 5k number coming from?

My Life Is Real and Writers are two of the better beats on here IMO :yeshrug:

This here.

But also, Polo is trying to flex, but the only thing Preem used of his on "Writers", was the bassline, which he chopped. And the keys, which he also chopped, on "My Life Is Real".

The drums on "Writers" are from 45 King. That's the classic "Pete 90" break from back in the day.

Yeah there's no way it's doing 100k lol

Clady would have to retire



He's a highly dedicated hater, I'll give him that
That's what grok is saying now (I guess it changed):yeshrug:

And I'd sooner believe it does 100k than 5k. More than likely it falls somewhere in the middle.

There was some OVO stan pages on Twitter saying he did 5k (for some reason Nas is the enemy cause he shouted out TDE on the De La track and they found out he shares a manager with Kendrick ) and someone screenshot a Facebook page saying he did but deleted it cause it wasn’t verifed

Basically no one knows for sure. It looks like how Magic 3 did when it debuted out the top 50 so there’s no estimates out and the rest of the chart isn’t counted yet
