Projections in (68%) J.Cole - 44K; Wale-41K; Kanye-14K( + jay early projections)

[Rem]

Looks like Cole will finally get the number 1 spot, although Wale is running him close with < 3000 copies behind. As it stands:

1 Cole 44,151

2 Wale 41,362

6 Kanye 14,683

Jay will definitely not have a relatively small 2nd week drop like BP3.
Went from about 470k to 300k.

It's crazy when the 2nd week is close to the first, I recall 50 doing 800k first and second week

 

[NSSVO]

Ye is dead

 

[Rem]

It's looking like Cole will outsell Kanye comfortably, even Wale's second (and probably even third) week numbers won't be far off Kanye's. This is crazy

 

[AB Ziggy]

If you think Jay-Z won't sell 1 mill in addition to all the app copies, you're nuts.

The Eminem Show was first scheduled for release on June 4, 2002; however, pirated and bootleg copies appeared online on peer-to-peer networks and began surfacing on the streets. Interscope decided to release the album early on May 28 to combat bootlegging. However, many stores in the U.S. began selling it early on Sunday, May 26, and some put the album out as early as Friday.[3] Promotional posters in stores read, "America Couldn't Wait". Due to the premature release by many retailers on a Sunday, the album had only one day of official sales for the chart week

The album sold 1,322,000 copies in its first full week of sales.[4][5] It sold 809,000 copies in its third week and 529,562 copies in its fourth week, to bring its four-week sales total to just under three million copies.[13][14] The album sold 381,000 copies in its fifth week and topped the Billboard 200 for the fifth consecutive week.[
