  10. Yup says:

    lmao easiest competition Ive ever seen and he still loses to the Lonely Island and “Now Thats What I Call Music”

  11. Later says:

    If this was Drake y’all would have said he flopped.

    True hatred on Rapradar

    Congrats Tyler

  12. FlacoVey says:

    Props to o.f. “Wolf” in 2012 will sell a lot more the first week for sure

  13. CJ says:

    Those are pretty solid numbers. He’s not even signed to a major which also means he’s probably making a lot more money then he would have otherwise off each album sale.

  14. Hydroflouricacid says:

    pussy nigga!

  15. hiphopfan says:

    50,000 copies? that’s crazy, this dude got all the hype in the world in the matter of a month, no one had a clue who him or his group was a few months ago, congrats to tyler

  16. Bengal Nation says:

    So Odd Future has been getting on average about 2-3 posts a day on Rap Radar and their lead man can only sell 50k? Rap Radar might want to post music related news about shit people actually care about, not some 19 year old hypocritical, bi-polar kid who makes shock rap and has one of the worst flows in the game. Earl and Frank Ocean are gonna be the only members of Odd Future still in the spotlight in 3 years from now.

  17. mac DIESEL says:

    PRETTY MUCH WUT I EXPECTED!!!! THAT’S GOOD NUMBERS FOR AN INDEPENDENT ARTIST!!!! BUT IT’S NOT ABOUT SALES WIT THESE SUBURBAN DWEEBS THOU!!!! IT’S ABOUT THEM HAVIN’ A SELECTIVE CORE FAN BASE/CULT FOLLOWING!!!!

    ….I’LL DOUBLE THE PRICE IF A NIGGA BASH THIS NIGGA’S HEAD WIT A BOTTLE!!!!

    DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!

  18. THESE NIGGAS MY SONS says:

KEEP IT ON THE LOW AND SEE IF THEY CAN GENERATE INTEREST THEN THE LABEL HOPS OUTTA NOWHERE FROM BEHIND THE SHADOWS. BUT CONGRATS TO THAT DUDE THO, I AINT ROCKING WIT THEY MUSIC BUT I SHOW RESPECT FOR SUCCESS

  19. JIMMY says:

    NOT BAD SINCE HE AIN’T HAVE A RADIO SINGLE!

    -JIMMY IS THE ILLEST

  20. dude says:

    Those are pretty solid numbers in this day and age. More than Flockavelli (lol). Not to mention most of tylers target demographic are people that don’t buy records.

  21. Sam I Am says:

    @theseniggasmysons

    thats exactly what i said! these niggas aint fooling nobody!

  22. Word says:

    FUCK POP! No radio single, no major Label, just thus buzz he made himself and he sold more than BANKS! Banks did 40k with hella radio jams and etc, Flocka did 30k with one of the hottest hist of the summer, Soulja Boy and so on. Imagine if dude had a major label backing him? He prolly woulda done in the 100ks. FUCK POP FEATURE YOU DONT NEED THAT SHIT TO DO NUMBERS

  23. PHILLY PHILLY says:

    @DUDE REALLY? ITS WHITE PPL @ EVERY SHOW THEY DO AN THATS WHO ACTUALLY BUYS MUSIC

  24. Scott says:

    This cat had absolutely no radio play, a few news sites hate him, and yet he pulls 50,000 records in 1 week. Someone tell Shake and Meka to suck a dick, 2ScroteBoyz.com

  25. still best rite now!! says:

    not impressed considering most debut album are the biggest selling for artist, so unless hes Em or Hov or a select few its downhill from here. & hes not fkn independent.

    but forget sales, this shit was the same as the Bastard mixtape, with 2-3 stand out tracks. Tylers strength is not his rapping, his talents go into beats & video direction too. Mike g & Domo have better flow, & Earl raps circle around him.

    If he can drop an album in the VCR, & Yonkers lane with mad creative shit. it’d be official

  26. ppTheTruth says:

    hahahah @david amaya.. Dude you get played a lot like your a chick.. I can see why.. You lie.. A lot.. First you say we have to report this stuff since its happening in music.. Now you saying swag after the post.. Obviously you like this guy.. Why? nobody will ever understand.. Its a shame they game someone who is mentally retarded(a la brick tamland<== look it up if you dont know who that is) anyways.. this dude is a clown.. so Heres to seeing the next bottle actually craccking him in the face and helping to even more devastate that already fucked up mug.. If you like it you like it.. you aint got to lie about it craig.. you aint got to lieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

  27. Converse says:

    @Philly cosign nigga shit sukk simple as that? long ass lp shit was annoying and water downb bullshit

  28. Gusto says:

    Gratz to Tyler. Decent numbers this go round. I hope they can keep the hype for the group album and do even better. I’m not a huge fan but I appreciate the kid’s passion and their is def some gems on Goblin.

  36. Jonathan says:

    This is good news… 50,000 in one week? Without any radio play or major label? Thats amazing… Congrats to OFWGKTA and Tyler, they deserved it

  37. Euros > Dollars says:

    this dude wasn’t even on the XXL freshman cover. He did all the promotion himself on his blog and the shows he did. They weren’t even relevant until a couple months ago. He’s not signed to a major either so he 50,000 copies is honestly not bad.

    If he was signed to a major then yea it would be a flop. If he was a veteran then yes it would be a flop. But he’s not. I don’t agree with what he says on his tracks, but I’m not gonna hate on him…cuz I haven’t even sold more then 5,000 copies of my compilation mixtape of the artists I’ve produced. And I released that 6 months ago. I do have like 15,000 free downloads. the mixtapes sold are hard copy CDs hand to hand like your average New York rapper, except I reside in DMV, and instead of harassing the tourists in Times Square I harass the tourists in Chinatown in front of the Verizon Center. lmaol.

    But honestly he’s not signed to a major, so he probably is making $5 to $10 every sale, multiply that by 50,000…its a lot of cash.

    He probably made more money off the 50,000 copies then all your favorite major label artists do when they sell 300K first week. Real Talk. And I’m from DMV so I support Wale and Maybach but honestly I don’t think they’ll reach 100k. Just saying because Def-Jam did all the work for Ross. Ross is gonna be so surprised. As a solo artist though I still think Ross can sell over 100k even without Def-Jam because he’s known. But “Self Made” is honestly just a studio produced compilation mixtape. Just like my mixtape, except that was done @ my crib in my basement.

  38. Yup says:

    ^dude hes on XL, they allow total creative control but take as much as a major label… quit talking out of your ass

  39. AggrofuckNEWrap says:

    See look at this dude @Euros > Dollars some emotional(aka EMO fan) young kid bragging about some fucktard who thinks he is greater than normal people.. Celebrity is a waste when someone thinks they actual have it before they do.. aka tyler the creater.. Wy do you care if he is getting money? WHY? WHY DOES THAT MATTER? wouldnt you rather care about what he is talking about? Everybody gets a piece of that money.. and im sure that ttyler the creator doesnt get but 5-15% off each album.. you can say he promote it himself.. but no.. not the case.. managers.. producers.. (you think he bought all the cds himself?===> no) stop making it seem lik eyour butt buddy and his group of butt buddies (odd future) are doing anything significant.. Fat Joe… did numbers.. He sold close to a milli on an independent… Thats money.. SO GTFOH with this odd future bullshit.

  40. altered beast says:

    He did more than HFM2 lol

  41. Gabriel says:

    Conversely, Rap Radar’s sudden and continuous dick sucking of Odd Future is number one on the charts and seems like it will stay there for some time to come

  42. Citylivin' says:

    stop complaining that Odd Future or MMG or Lil’B get too many posts…..how about e-mail or tweet your favorite rapper to get of their ass and make some music so they can get some posts….
    2DopeBoyz is that-a-way >>>

  43. NuJew says:

    Average sales…but Amaya is still a bitch that slut is always lying.

  44. Sam from FL says:

    LMAO..damn homie, i could sell more out the trunk of my car. Guess the hype is dying down already.

  45. PeterChain says:

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOLF GANG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  46. The Hater says:

    I’m surprised niggas ain’t bashing him. Y’all call niggas flops and laugh a nigga who sells this much. Hypocritcal, bipolar, confused faggot ass niggas.

    Who gives a fuck about a sales if you don’t work for the label, ur only concern should be is it good or not.

  47. Chex says:

    @NuJew
    hahaha! Too funny. But, Amaya is a dude.

  48. Ben P says:

    He sold 50,249 more copies than he deserved to…

  49. SLIE TITS says:

    EARL IS THE MAN! One thing I have to ask though is How is a “I dont give a fuck’ wolf gang type of group gonna have a Rnb singer in it? haha weak right there. Frank Ocean? I’m just gonna call him FAG CHOP! Hey Tyler! YOU ARE UGLY!
