Fans Camp Out For Drake Album
June 14, 2010 @ 9:32 PM EDT
News
Before sunset, these two flicks were taken of fans waiting on line for Drake’s album signing at the Best Buy in Union Square. Pick up a copy tomorrow. The game needs all the support it can get.
it’s not really for Drake’s album tho, it’s cus there giving away wristbands to meet him the next day…
FOR REAL…EVEN AFTER IT LEAKED???
THREE CHEERS FOR HIP HOP…DIDN’T SEE THAT COMING *KANYE SHRUG*
Wow, what fucking morons. Shit’s not even that good, and even if it was I still wouldn’t camp out for it.
WOW. I had my doubt bout oh boy. Saw Em standing at number 2 and 8 on itunes and i said it was over for Drake.. Ha. Looks as thou i may be wrong.
My predictions for Thank Me Later – 300k – 350k and Next week Em pushing between 900 k to a Milli easily nextweek.
Never that serious, smh. He’s not going to even be on time at 2pm. Really?
good for rap, or “rap.”
LOL what a buncha losers
They should get all of these people into the store and blow it up
Damn J.Cole You Need To Catch Up……..Damn
Get Jay-Z On The Phone Because J.Cole Ain’t Going To Make It
Don’t Get Made Me
Get Jay-Z On Phone
Damn Do You See That Line…….
WoooooooooooooooooooW ( Jay-Z Voice )
man i aint copin shit.. fuck that nigga music.. and all ya kids who rock wit it.. go buy the shit.. support yours..
CAMP OUTSIDE FOR A CD SIGNING! DUMBASS LAME NIGGAS ALWAYS TRYING TO GIVE THIS RNB NIGGA A WOW AFFECT. DAMN DICK RIDERS.
^CORRECTION GOOD FRO RNB, TREY SONGS WATCH OUT
That’s understandable. They get the CD 12:00AM right?
Hater niggaz marry hater bitches and have hater kids,hate will get u no where. Get em drizzy!
Let’s go. My copy’s in the mail.
is this a Joke? they are in line to pre-order the new iphone 4
Welp, looks like 95% of RR’s commenters were wrong when they said Drizzy’s album would flop.
I ain’t brought a CD since 2005 and don’t ever plan to buy another ….
not a big drake fan but congrats to him. me saying cause you RARELY see people this dedicated to buying music in these times. hope it was worth the wait camp-out people….
Idiots
“The game needs all the support it can get.” ….helping one hip-hop artist is not gonna help hip-hop in general
News that isn’t news…
I doubt this is for drake its best buy where new technology gets in that store like every 3 weeks so this line aint nothing new Watch they waiting in line for some new type of computer or phone or some shit
Yea Drake shit come out tommorrow but i bet if i google what else comes out tommorrow there is something bigger nigas dont wait outside for CDS especially if one nigga is sitting right there with a laptop LOL
I loe how everybody’s on here hatin’. Who are ya’ll determine other ppl’s likes and tastes in music. If they wanna camp out 4 tha kid, let ’em. I’m pretty sure a lot of ya’ll dick ridin’ niggaz were gonna and are STILL gonna camp out for Em’s album, even if u did download it. Now that it’s been pushed up a day (wow, one day…) a lot of ya’ll prolly busted a nut jus readin’ that headline and are prolly callin’ off from work Monday jus to camp out at Best Buy early like eager Twilight fans…
congrats Drizzy!!!
But he gon have to meet all these who haven’t brushed their teeth tomorrow, ew!
“The game needs all the support it can get.” ….helping one hip-hop artist is not gonna help hip-hop in general
^
not helping doesnt do anything neither
lol @ niggas really still hating. I live in NY and walked past union sqr after work, and all these people, black & white were there with Drake shirts on, blasting so far gone and comeback season. One dude was even roasting marshmellows lol!
chill. its for an album signing. WTF do you expect.
go out to you local best buy and i bet there isn’t a soul there.
but congrats anyways, i will be supporting tomorrow as i said i would after the first time i heard his mixtape. but its a shame that everyone that listens and enjoys his music or hip hop in general actually purchases albums and appreciates the time and effort exerted to produce them.
God damn i’m not by any means a big Drake fan,but you motherfuckers got way to much hate flowing through your veins. To each his own, if motherfuckers wanna wait in line for his cd who the fuck cares i mean besides you pricks hating on them i mean. Now in reality it can always be worse imagine if this was the line for soulja boys new album seriously
save your money it aint that good HAHA
@ acapella i wouldnt camp out for detox i wouldnt even camp out for a fuckin cd if it had acrual recording of an alei rapping wiht jesus that shit is for twikight nuts ps ama em stan
union square gay pride parade
I dont see the seriousness or the antiscipation in wanting a Drake cd but im not delusional like this new ipod generation. They act like Drake is saying the most relevant words in hip hop right now. He has no Pac influential in his music at all, not even Pun, Big or whoever. Yes im hating cuz i really need to know what the hell yall hearing in this irritating dude name Drake?
Shady doesn’t need a gimmick like album signings to make noise
I’m just laughin at all those Drake fans who haven’t heard the album yet and actually go out and buy it. Haha they gonna be so disappointed. Drake’s fanbase will easily be cut in half (at the minimum) after this album is released. FLOP.
will you fucking retards read what the article says? “Before sunset, these two flicks were taken of fans waiting on line for Drake’s album signing at the Best Buy in Union Square.” its an album SIGNING. meaning drake is there signing cds. they arent waiting in line to buy his cd they are waiting in line to get their shit autographed. God you guys are fucking retarded.
COPPIN MINE TMARA!! ITS MY BIRTHDAY BITCHES
Never seen so much hate in my life. Dude doesn’t make fake music (ross), doesn’t grab dope instrumentals and spit garbage on them (gucci, Wacka). He came up passionate on hip hop and made dope mixtapes for free. He’s got support from jay, nas, ye, and a lot of vets. In my opinion, his level of production and lyrics has elevated other artists music a lot. Why shouldn’t he sell?
Cronk..the signing it TOMORROW @ 2PM..thats why people are questioning it.!! Union Sq had signings when Virgin Records used to be there with Usher,etc… people camp out the day of not the day before…seems drastic for a leaked album. No one is hating, just saying it’s a bit much knowing they never get there until 5 -6 really
Fake…
pic not for ehis album……
i download the shit….worth the free download…..worth 1 listen…..worth a LIFETIME in the fcuking trash
um…bullshit misleading headline….YET AGAIN! lol. People are camped out for a cd????? They are camped out to meet the one of the biggest names in music face to face? Simple as that? But i guess its all in how u word it (or dont word it) right? Hiphop…..i mean….THE MEDIA MACHINE wins again!!!! lol.
Stop the hate. Aight cool we get it u don’t like the album awesome! Now go suck on Black thoughts and the rest of the roots dicks for some “real hip hop”
Its not hate if its true, Drake sucks… everyones just brainwashed by the market making this dude seem like something hes not. FLOP…..lol..Suck a dick till you hickup bitch.
Haha. Someone here made an interesting point. Drake yelled all of the right names out the gate: 3stacks, NAS, Jay, Sade, Etc.
But the fact is that you don’t hear an influence from them in his music? He just knew what he was SUPPOSED to say and said it. CONGRATULATIONS!!! It fooled most of u.
I’m on the line right now…its not that bad…you guys are just haters lol
@Ac@pella
You complained about the haters, by hating on the haters? Where they do that at…???
iphone 4g presale is tomorrow. Thats what the line is for not for drake. People want that new joint to ebay it not to buy drakes album. Good try. no hate just the truth.
@Joja86 someone said on like the 1st comment they are giving out the wristbands so they can come back the next day. those people arent camping out over night or anything they are gonna leave and be back the next day. now im sure there are some hypes that will stay over night but assuming that wrist band thing is true they arent really waiting from the day before…
Lol, Rick Ross had the same crowd for Deeper Than Rap
That Negro Jew ain’t a new IPhone.
the entire thank me later album in a few lines –
drake: “mmm yeah girl your so beautiful, you don’t need make up, i love you girl, go ahead and dance girl do ya thang”
Drake had a huge following when he dropped so far gone. he had maybe two tracks with wayne at that point. His music is good. He came in out of left field and is beasting on the mic. The media is hyping good music, sorry haters. Not dick riding, I’m sayin the dude makes good music overall.
The game needs all the support it can get, Drake’s album doesn’t provide any. Shit is garbage.
@Everyone
Lol…wait till next wk smh
it’s good to see people lining up to buy a record in 2010
Man they out there to meet him and get an autograph. The only way to get that is to buy the cd so watever still a flop
who paid for this stunt? lol, dummies u dont need to sleep outside download this piece of shit album,ha
ill cop dat drake for sure online dat is ahah fuck drake the fake,,,, eminemmmmmmmmmm for life nukkaaa
@Rickk How much you think it’s gonna sell? What is not a flop to you?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHHA
those people are waiting to reserve IPHONES. LMAO. no one is waiting on drakes shit.
get your facts right RR
The Mastered Version of Light Up (remix) featuring Lil’ Wayne & Jay-Z will be on Octobers Very Own today.
So one quick search via google for “best buy midnight drake release”, and u will find that they are in line to grab the cd at 12:01 am and to get a wristband to hop back over on tues at 2pm to meet ol Drizzy. Thank Me Later for my college education which taught me to always think” and “research” for more data.lol
TML>GAAA(except for mc hammer)
Legend
TML=Thank Me Later
GA=Goon Affiliated
TOD2=Trap or Die 2
AA=Albert Anastacia
lmao aint this 4 the new iphone?
@no1 Someone needs to pull a Kanye on you for that fucked up list……snatch the mic from him!!!
FUCK!!! Drake crashed twitter!!! Nah I’m playing Drake fans…..RECOVERY
@Rickk..him Selling aint going to make the Album any better..lets Just make this shit clear now. The Dude is going to Sale!! There aint no doubt about that..But tha album aint that great or didnt come close to what i expected. In my eyes He Floped Quality wise..So when next week comes around with big numbers im going to hate Seeing you comming around Sayin I told you so and this and that,..the ALBUM IS STILL GOING TO BE GARBAGE!!!
*Or didnt come close to what PEOPLE expected.
What y’all thought of the album and what other ppl thought is different, your opinion and taste in music isn’t Universal opinion dumbies, just cus u don’t like something doesn’t give u the right to crucify everybody else who likes it so hop off ur own dick and egos for a min. Cus there are actually ppl who like the album and think its worth the buy and i think he’s gonna sale 500k, but who knows, i just wanna see another man successful
@Rickk I was just wondering what you thought….niggas too sensitive on here
Fuck that. GO COP RECOVERY
Rap Radar Commenters are all a bunch of Eminem Dick Riders
get off that boy and Slaughterhouse nutsack
You guys praise Eminem “Top 10 in Surburbia”
You praise Slaughterhouse and don’t purchase their CD
You swear Rick Ross is whack and corny but he is on fucking fire and you guys can’t stand it
Pitri, first of all lets be real. The ALbum isn’t GARBAGE…. Waka Flaka and Roscoe Dash is Garbage. Drakes album still has quotoble songs, and good bars. Its slightly above average or else it wouldn’t sell at all after leaking. I see dudes bumping his shit after late club nights all the time. Its good chill music to ride with bitches too. Leave it be and stop calling shit garbage for no reason. Look at the wiki page, most reviews (professional reviews) are positive so relax bro
Alright..it aint Grabage..i might of went far there..but it isint what it was hyped up to be..i was Expecting somthing Phenomenal. But it wasent..
Well, whatever numbers he does, I think he’s done enough to be in demand for a second album. That will put just as much pressure onto him, if not more, especially if many fans aren’t satisfied with Thank Me Later. Hope he wins. He should have fewer rap features on his second album.

supposely you get a card and you could download 12 unreleased songs from Relapse 2. Idk if its true tho.
does pre-order sales on itunes count as first week sales.? for eminem not drake.
..in my opinion if ur a drake fan ur a homo.. im jus sayin
the jews of the record business made drake
but i aint gonna lie i got his cd coming in the mail
..o yea, the album is garbage..
..p.s. rick rosey is gud soundin garbage..
The comment section needs to go back to how it was.
Thank Me Later Album Review… Let me know what you think?
http://bit.ly/9F4211
to much hate in your guys hearts. you hate the kid..thats cool. a lot of people obviously dig him…let em dig him. I think its sort of exciting, not many records these days spawn as much excitement as drizzys is, & i’m not just talking about the rap game, im talking about music in general. Its the kids first album & we’re talking about him like its his 3rd…i think thats pretty dope. Can’t wait for this record & I can’t wait for Em’s next monday…
Drake – s.r.o.a.t
Softest rapper of all time 🙂
its only teen girls who wanna see Jimmy from Degrassi
I’m not much of a Drake fan but i wish him the best cause at the end of the day he seems like a good dude who hasn’t let all the fame get to him (yet) regardless thou GET EM DRAKE SELL A MILLI.
AND FUCK THE HATE STRAIGHT UP NEGATIVITY IS FOR SUCKERS.
the only positive thing about this post is the number of negative comments towards “Drizzy” {cringe}
dudes a f*kin cornball of the highest magnitude
HATE ^
Sad bastards, if it was for OutKast or Eminem I would understand but Drake isn’t amazing, i’m a fan of Drake and i’m expecting my copy to be delivered today but he isn’t the type of emcee that has me amazed with lyrics, he’s average lyrically.
drake album is for pussy hahahahah fuck DRAKE AND LIL WAYNE
we did it ya’ll we hyped this guy up and now we are burning him at the stake…..
truth is his album can be played on the radio in its entirety its radio music.
why would i buy something that sounds like the radio??
it plays all day for free and it doesnt get scratched.
and it get to gas up my car.
b.dot your “game” is the industry. backing up an actor really?
will smith dont even rap no more.
drake seems like a nice guy who loves hip hop but he aint it.
Drake is SOOO fucking boring!!!!!! Do male hip hop fans really listen to his music especially his latest cd and get joy out of it?!? He’s generic as hell constantly going for the lower common denominator in music (young girls). Fuck you Drake… If I ever see you in South Africa you can believe that I will make a casual insult right to ur face if I dont fucking smash ur ugly face into the pavement first.
Ok hes got the exact same style (monotone boring flow) on every single song pretty much boasting like Jay Z without the good rapping technique. If this corny asshole sells half as much as Eminem first week I will be disgusted !!!
this isn’t for his album. iPhone 4G pre orders start today..
He will sell… we all know that, but I’m not buying it… Not impressed with the album at all! Hip Hop is the new R&B unfortunately… TML is not a Hip Hop album
@andresince1982. Cosign. Lol this is not for Drakes album lol it’s for the new Ipone 4g
Z-ro made a song about all u haters hating on other people’s success. It’s called Haters got me wrong. I suggest all you dick in the booty haters youtube it. Hating is such a hoe trait. I get all itchy when i’m around all you hating ass people. I understand people have their own opinions, but some of u cats are just some hating ass hoes! I don’t even fuck wit Drake like that, but I respect his hustle and grind. I’m even gonna to buy his album just to support.
Listenin to the album right now this muthafuckers singing does me in.. just go’s straight through me on karaoke now, i thought that was lil wayne rappin shit.. aint hatin though gunna blaze through the album now tell my thoughts afta the jump
The line was not for an IPhone presale. It was to get wristbands and the cd to come back today and to get our cd signed and meet him
pretty sure that line is for the the iPhone 4… lame ass
Damn haters always have to flood pages with their dumbass comments. Really? If you don’t like the artist why go even bother to look at the page or view their music? Drake is very original in his music, talented, and the realest out in the Game. Thank me later BITCH JUNE 15! Good album Drake, keep doin what you are. Congratulations on your release of your new album! Fans go support Drake and buy yourself an album
Man fuck u hatin douchebags fa real bro this dude talks about real shit in life that ppl can relate to. Thats wat makes good music man. Hes different than anyone, doesnt have to rap about how hard he is, the crack n shit he sells/smokes, killin ppl, none of that shit. Real life problems that ppl can relate their lives to is wat he talks about. Any rapper is at his best if he makes ppl relate to his struglle. If u cant relate, dont listen to it or comment about it, theres so many more ppl that like it besdies ur lame ass. Im bettin the ppl that are sayin shit prolly like dudes like boosie or plies or soulja boy, lol lame ass niggas talkin bout how hood they are. Good music is about touchin ppls lives in ways that make them want to listen to wat u have to say. Drakes doin it man.
Those people are lucky. >.< I went to get a cd but I didn't know they had naother line to get a blue wristband. Those people arn't idiots. So stop hating they got the cd and signed by darke and you guys didn't. SO STFU. I LOVEE DRAKEE. <3
