Aite, this nikka KiD CuDi put up 85k this week with this new album. shyt had ZERO radio play, zero promo, no videos and no major label backing. nikka essentially told his relatively modest volume of twitter followers that the shyt was out there on iTunes and his fans came through and he somehow shifted 85k.

Obviously 85k isn't THAT much comparable to some first week artists but when you think about it, it's quite a formiddable amount to move given his circumstances. That 85k is 5x more impressive than Q's 140k with Oxy for example.

Begs the question, does this nikka have the most loyal fanbase in the game? If not, which other artist has FANS that really roll deep and pay for their content like that?

E-40.. Even his Earl Stevens wine collection is sold out before it even hit shelves

J Cole
Rick Ross
Young Jeezy

Yeah they get more radio play than Kid Cudi but its the same people buying their albums from the mid 2000s to now.. J Cole has sold extremely well both albums

nas always sells well and has been for a while without much radio play

Eminem by miles. Dude has put out hot garbage for an entire decade and always did at least 2 million.
Its Nas and its not close.

Nas is the only artist that never ever expands his fan base when he releases new music or albums.

Yet he is still able to sell well and a get release dates.
