  2. Wow says:

    Does “Dark Sky Paradise” make “Hall Of Fame” sound/look like a mixtape?

  3. Da Business says:

    Congratulations to Sean.

    I fux w/ Sean. After sitting w/ the Lp for a week, I’d say that it’s a dope record, his best yet. I just don’t think that it’s strong enough to get him in the conversation of the top tier emcees doing it now. Drake, Cole, and Kendrick r miles ahead of the bunch.

    Sean is a beast and tho most n!99@$ sleep on the kid, he can out bar, and out wit both Drake and Cole. Dude’s word play is incredible. It might just be me but, he can’t seem to carry a whole lp by himself. He relies to much on features and I feel like it’s holding him back. He has a lot of potential tho.

      Let me ask u this…I agree wit u 100…is it a classic? I will say yes…

      1. DISQUS says:

        Can’t say this album was a classic. This isn’t the Finally Famous Sean anymore and I don’t think he can make anything better than what he made back then.

    2. radio raheem says:

      His Target Market is Just Teens… That’s his sound Problem

      1. tipp0183 says:

      1. TylerFree says:

        So what I thought he was going to sell 80k to be honest.

        1. Young Fry King says:

          He said more than “they expected”.. THEY expected 100-150k so..

      2. polopolo1 says:

        what does streaming mean? they give points just for the songs being played?? why even add that too the grand total?

    2. William Witherz says:

      I don’t 100% agree but your comment is funny as hell. I didn’t listen to the last one but the first one was butt. Despite that I think he’s been getting better as a rhymer on the verses I’ve heard the last year or so. I’ll prolly give his album a listen.

  12. bcl187 says:

    Who in gods name bought this losers album? Wow there really are 100+k retards!

    BIG SEAN COVERS ‘COMPLEX’
    by BIG DUMMY 1.26.15

    Fresh Perspective.

    Emerging from a color smoke bomb is Big Sean on Complex‘s February/March issue. The feature can be read in full here. Below is an excerpt explaining the title of his new album.

    “That title—Dark Sky Paradise—fits it so perfect for me,” Sean says as the day wraps up. “There were a lot of thunderstorms in my life. A lot of rumbling, a lot of lightning. Then sunshine came.”

    ^

    Translation: My last album flopped but I’m dating a pop star, I got the Drake feature, the DJ Mustard production, and my album title sounds similar to Kanye’s My Beautiful Twisted Dark Fantasy. This formula is definitely gonna work.

    Update: And a Kanye verse on a remix

    ^

    TAH DAHHHHH!!!! HA!!!! WE SEE YOU LIL SEAN!!!!

    DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!

      1. el jim chapo guzman says:

    2. El Fenomeno says:

      he must thank mustard

      1. el jim chapo guzman says:

        nah.

  15. MJeezy says:

    Well earned. Sean deserves it!

  16. yorapper says:

    Big Sean is trash musically. He tries extra hard with the zany flows but they obnoxious to listen to. Now he’s going with the fake artistic asthetic to hide the flaws in his music. Kanye can do it cause his music is actually remarkable.

    These numbers are a result more of his down to earth personality and those youtube motovational clips he been putting out. So props to him for being a good used car salesmen, but artist with a vision. Nope.

    1. GetReal says:

      no nigga people actually appreciated the music, you niggas are some hatin ass niggas he went #1 get off his dick or off the post

  17. Lume says:

    Glad to say I supported!

  18. FlyyPG says:

    Man it seems like anyone can top the charts what’s the real value? Just pick a week when no one drops an album and its all yours.

    1. Donn says:

      Somewhere a rapper is wishing he could sell 100 copies of anything lmaooo

      1. FlyyPG says:

        You right lol. But i mean a Kanye cosign can work magic lol

        1. GetReal says:

          keef aint go #1….

          1. FlyyPG says:

            Obviously it ain’t a 100% thing. I’m just saying majority of the time ppl go #1 thats the formula

  19. Guillaume Pilon says:

    next week he gonna sell 20k

  20. @RyanBrockington says:

    Man! HE DESERVES IT!

  21. radio raheem says:

    He was buying his own albums on Instagram… 100k is not good enough for roc nation Jay z must be disappointed ZZZZZzzzzzZzzzzz… NUMBERS speak for themselves… PEACE

    1. Kenny Bania says:

      Fab sold less and he’s managed by Roc nation too

  22. tipp0183 says:
