Nas New Album Predicted To Sell 35k 1st Week

[ISO]

That's within the range I predicted, about 35k-55k.

If they wanted to sell more they should have released a video and had Ultra Black on the official Nas youtube page earlier. Not bad numbers given how long he's been around. I think this album could have decent legs btw. Lots of tracks that younger people will stumble across due to the features.

Yes. Nas could have sold more with a pro black themed video to Ultra Black, Spicy is a song with the Ferg and Fivio features and Nas hook that could get picked up in rotation by NY radio and played at the Dyckman clubs and lounges, and the Durk song needs a video. The album had potential to sell more first week but Nas just threw it out.

Dope. He is not on def jam anymore?

No.


He co-owns Mass Appeal and set this up in 2014 and the plan was always for him to release music via Mass Appeal once he was off Def Jam


Nas Launches New Label Mass Appeal

Nasir concluded his Def Jam contract with the release of Nasir. He also released Lost Tapes 2 via Def Jam because all of the Masters for that album were recorded during his Def Jam stint.



King’s Disease is his first album to be released via his own label. Mass Appeal is technically “Independent “ but they are distributed through Universal so they still have major label backing

Looks like Nas will do around 60-65k (right now predicted at 53k after 3 days)

Let's put it in perspective for 2020:

Blueface: "Find The Beat" 13k first week sales
Yo Gotti: "Untrapped" 35k first week
Megan Tha Stallion: "Suga" 41k first week
Childish Gambino - 31k first week
Lil Durk - Just Cuz Yall Waited" - 57k first week
Gunna - 101k
Lil Yachty - 31k
G-Eazy - 27k.

Amazing

Young dolph could ask nas to be his opening act on tour

 

[TheAnointedOne]

Doubt Nas cares. He has a rich catalog. When he's low on money he can just do a tour and get millions.

This stupid guy really said that shyt? Can Dolph even go on tour? He can’t leave his house without Gotti or Black Youngsta shooting his ass. That guy never shoots back
