Ya'll are super late. I think he's been president of Cash Money since like 2007. Funny thing though, Memphis Bleek is vice president of A&R (or something like that) at Roc Nation.

[lbj23navo]

Yeah Baby Definitely bought some copies 

 

[whyhellothere]

not going to lie, I'm completely baffled by this. Carter 4 didn't even have as much hype as Carter 3.  I don't get it

Remember how the entire world was caught up in Kanye fever last fall? How Kanye had the entire world watching the premiere of Runaway on MTV? How Tumblr was creaming its panties with Kanye posts 24 hrs a day? GOOD Fridays…. and all that good @%*@?
Despite all that…… MBDTF only did 497,000 the first week……. The Carter IV just doubled that
^All of this. The confusion in my head is real.

This.  I'm not hating on dude at all, but I'm finding it extremely hard to believe that he legitimately did a mil in his first week, in this day and age.  Even with his fan base.

 nonetheless.

 

[rico x hood]

We'll see what the second week sales look like. I'm expecting an 80% drop.

 

[la kb24]

hype

now and these days ppl just buy things just because of its lil waynes album.

dont get me wrong i like wayne alot but i thought the C3 was the best.

 

[goldenchild9]

Makes no sense to me.

I wasn't even sure of the release date for C4 and I mess with Wayne.

WTT & Carter 3 Buzz >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> than C4.

On top off all that, the album is buns.

Something seems fishy.

 

[cuffy]

Wayne won

 

[gumbo jones]

bl3333 dat.

 

[tune205]

Buys 1 purnt 5 million bugatti to spite Jay Z

Buys a maybach to spite Jay Z

Buys tourbus to spite Jay Z

Forces Wayne to diss Jay Z & Beyonce

Buys back 500K Carter 4 albums to spite Jay Z

 

[Rootin4EverybodyBlack]

If you dont think Birdman bought at least 250K of those albums you're sick
The buzz for C4 was NOWHERE close to C3 and CD sales have been on the decline, and C4 is some %@@%. There's no way he legit sold a million copies...

Jay should really get Birdman back and buy a million J. Cole albums 

, N_'s would be flabbergasted

Hard to admit it but it's true

At least C3 was cohesive and a good effort. From what I heard on C4, it seems like he said $%%# it and just drop an album

QFT. All of this.
Ain't no way Birdman didnt buy a majority of those albums. NO WAY. I don't know anyone who bought it, the only time it was trending on twitter was when it leaked and the masses were roasting it, and his singles have been receiving negative feedback.

C'mon son. Show me receipts.

 

[finessesosa]

i cant believe he really did a mil 

 

[crazy dav0]

how is Adele's 19 selling more than Jill Scott's new release
