Update: First week sales, according to Hits Daily Double, were about 463,000. But while that means 500,000 is certainly feasible, the possibility of Drake opening to the tune of one million or more is officially out of the question.

I need him to do two million the first week, straight up.”īillboard was quick to note that the album stands a chance of moving above the aforementioned 425-475,000 forecast by week’s end.

Recently, rapper The Game offered a prediction of 650,000 opening week sales Lil Wayne, meanwhile, said, “I need him to do more than ‘Tha Carter III.’ Like two million in the first week. While such an opening would situate the album with Sade’s “Soldier of Love” (502,000) and Lady Antebellum’s “Need You Now” (481,000) as one of the best year-to-date performers, it would not live up to some of the rather lofty pre-release hopes and expectations. I love drakes new cd.According to Billboard, the early tracking on “Thank Me Later” is 425,000-475,000 debut week sales. This album is jamming, its a little different but after a few listens i was hooked, i would like to see him do some more collabs with the houston rappers but all in all i love it, karaoke, shut it down, and unforgettable are the favs With all the hype surrounding this cd i thought it would have been much better I thought it was just average. I listened to this CD because my son left it in my car.I really enjoyed it.Good for HIM, Really good cd if you dont got it yet go get it. I am a Drake fan, but hopefully his next album is greater than this one. Drake definitely could have came harder like on his mixtapes, but he wanted to show both sides.

Maybe because many of the songs off this album have been leaked, is why I do not really think this album deserves 5 stars. Of course Drake was doing his thing in 09, and the So Far Gone mixtape was the bomb.

Drake thank me later album sales
