Thank Me Later First Week Projection

Men lie. Women lie. Hits don’t.

The half-Jewish Toronto hip-hop star who got his start in the teen TV cult hit Degrassi: The Next Generation, goes to the head of the class this week on his Young Money/Cash Money/Universal Motown debut, Thank Me Later, with first-week sales in the 450-475k range, making it a lock for #1.

    Eminem’s gonna push more units the 1st week but it’s gonna help Drake’s 2nd week sales…

  2. GotKush says:

    In the end I guess “A million in a week” was FAR fetched

  3. Mr. Hip-Hop says:

    Hits? Are you serious? Drake is highly overrated. Lil John had hits, does that make him a great artist? Let’s not lose focus here. Drake’s fan base is whoever listens to commercial radio frequently. He’s feeding off his Best I Ever Had success and is enjoying his 15 minutes of fame. And he should. However, if you really think he is a great artist, then your knowledge of hiphop and r&b is suspect. If “Best I Ever Had” never came out, people wouldn’t even like the music he followed up with. Peoples minds have been programmed to LIKE Drake. Sad but true.

  4. MIkey Haze says:

    Of course niggas is gonna hate even when he go gold in a week. Same niggas saying he wouldn’t sell 200k FUCK OUTTA HERE

  5. Ghost on set says:

    ^^Yeah^^ damn sure ain’t bad for a debut though lets see what he does next time around though, see if he can keep momentum.

  6. reythehussein says:

    That’s awesome. He’s still mediocre at his very, very best.

  7. MIkey Haze says:

    YOU CAN THANK ME NOWWW

  8. herbsaac says:

    After one day? they are predicting this? THAT seems far fetched

  9. E_ says:

    This Is Lloyd Banks Debut Numbers…..I Guess The Media Failed Miserably With That 50 Cent Comparation Shit.

    ____________________________________________

    Congrats To Drake,Good Numbers.

  10. Do-THE-right-THING says:

    How may Albums Did Em’s SSLP sell? 280-what? STans YOU CAN THANK HIM NOW!

  11. ReppinHard says:

    There’s hope for new artists to sell after all

  12. BOSS says:

    damn Drake gold first week, that the equivalent of plat nowadays. Congrats to my boy DRIZZY!

    FUCK THEM HATERS, HE’S SELLIN, YOU AINT, STOP BITCHIN

  13. sam says:

    This is a failure. With all the hype/promotion/ and free media it should have EASILY exceeded 500k. It’s a great album, I love it. But thats really low numbers for the years hottest debut.

  14. y says:

    if em put the recovery album out 2 years after the eminem show he woulda done 2 mill in a week i think if not pretty close. it been 8 years since Em put out an album that meets his skill. alot of his hype has died down and lets not forget the ppl who were 18, 19, & 20 ten years ago and now have families and jobs the last thing they gonna do is go buy an album. that is why i think drake will prolly do more than him in sales but recovery is definitly on the same track as SSLP MMLP TES content wise. im not sayin its better or even as good as MMLP or TES but its on track
    Recovery >x2 TML…my opinion

  15. Afrtermath Rules says:

    Fuck The half-Jewish fuck jews

  16. H2H says:

    475,000 stupid ass people.

  17. Afrtermath Rules says:

    400 .000 zionist bitch ass

  18. phil says:

    The battle is between DRAKE/EMINEM.

    Eminem just has to release love the way you lie, and he’s got a hit. Still though, he’ll be fine. I guarantee he sells way more than Drake.

  19. Donn says:

    That’s what i’m talking bout, Platinum by the end of the month. Do your thing Drizzy, Point the biggest skeptic out, i’ll make em’ a believer

  20. dashing says:

    A milli a week will NEVER happen again. That was 2 years ago and that was pushing it. Now CD sales are even lower.

    So he didn’t crack 500k. So what??

    475K the first week for a debut artist is incredible. Especially now. That’s what Jay did on BP3. That’s eqivalent to $1 million first week in ’05. He’ll def go platinum. People can hate but like YN said numbers don’t lie.

    The album’s not half bad either. Shoulda put “You Know You Know” on it though…

  21. seemoregan says:

    he did better than I expected. Congrats. I thought about 280K. Not bad. I think Em will do about the same. What did Relapse do 1st week?

  22. flow J says:

    lets not make perdictions……….we will see and wait how much he sells next week….hope the best for him though…..Want everybody in this hip hop game be successful

    After one day? they are predicting this? THAT seems far fetched

    ^^^^^
    based on units shipped, n the scans for 1st day sales, wayne did a milli in a week b/c of wat was shipped to the stores, not cuz he actully sold 1mil ina week

  24. Shawn says:

    It’s not a brick, but I’m sure not the expectations.
    I like Drake, but I don’t think he’ll be around too long.
    You have to wonder if the “buzzing” for so long and putting out so much material is the the reason he sold 450K or the reason he ONLY sold 450K.. I’m sure label was expecting 800K.
    If he can keep the second week drop in the 30-40% range, instead of the 60 % he’ll be good.

  25. Do-THE-right-THING says:

    Yo I wrote a rap, wanted to get all your opiniona on it:

    It go like yo,
    – Drizzy bout the sell a Grip, an all the Em stans bout to cry and have a fit.
    – Faggot ass lames, Ems music style is older than Rick James
    – Drizzy Spit Pain, real shit from the heart, he bring that Propane
    – Its sick mayne, EM just a cracker, smeared across a shit stain,
    – Bout to be Over, cuz it aint far from, Like Drake say
    – This nigga seeing Green like a celtics Jersey,
    – But he #1 like best of 7, game winning shot….KOBE
    – Lyrically beast mode, ya’ll niggas got no game…CHEAT CODE
    – So come see me in trap, and while this nigga rep the T.O.!

    1

  26. flow J says:

    @seemoregan thick about it Eminems Relapse did 609,000 first week….imagine how much Recovery will sell 700k plus

  27. Post no billz says:

    This whole numbers game us fans have been playin for the last 8 or 9 years is really played the fuck out.. Just enjoy the music let the suits worry about the numbers..

  28. dashing says:

    And Em SHOULD sell more than Drake. He’s a known name that’s been known to the public for over a decade. He also has the full force of Interscope putting up their marketing dollars on it. (Did you see the Shamwow Eminem commercial during the NBA Finals? That shit wasn’t cheap)

    So comparing them on the basis of first week numbers is stupid. Bottom line, Drake’s album is a commercial success. And comparing him to one of the highest selling rappers just to shoot him down is stupid.

    That’s like if Lebron won a championship his first year and people went “So. Michael Jordan has 6!!!!” It’s stupid to even talk numbers over quality but if you’re gonna do it, then give props where it’s due.

  29. Hollaatchaboy says:

    How many did Reasonable Doubt sell in the first week?? Numbers don’t make you an artist, or someone that has lasting power. Em sold 280 first week on an album that didn’t start to receive buzz until after it came out, they been hyping this dude Drake for like a year now and he dropped a mixtape that was in stores. We’ve seen this before, see: L. Banks. Where he at now? Everyone was bangin BB&B but nobody saying he top 5. Theres a difference between a hit here and there and artist that comes with dope shit consistently. Eventually Drake’s fans are gonna make it through puberty and grow up and move on from this weak R&B disguised as rap shit. How many units is Christina and Britney sellin now? That bubble gum bullshit don’t last.

  30. Shawn says:

    And really this whole “If you like Drake you ain’t a real hip hop fan” movement is wack. Real lame.
    All them “Real Rappers” you love that don’t get the recognition you think they should would do a Ronnie Lott (cut off a pinky) to get Drakes fame, numbers and paper so cut it out.

  31. ummm ok? says:

    @ do-THE-right-THING

    why are you always hating SPECIFICALLY on eminem on every single post? its not his fault that he’s the most successful rapper since he came up in the game, instead of showing respect you pull your hair from your scalp and roll and cluth your stomache on the floor because of the hate you have against eminem…your sad, very sad : / god bless you man.

  32. Enzo says:

    Drake 478k first week, Em 720k first week, KanYe 836k first week. It has been written.

  33. Do-THE-right-THING says:

    @ummm ok?

    I hate Eminem because of all his FAGGOT ASS STANS. FUCK HIM! And FUCK YOU

    DRAKE IS THE NEW HIP HOP!!!!!!

    YA DIG>?

  34. Hollaatchaboy says:

    People aint sayin that.. they sayin that Drake ain’t hip hop. Listen nigga can’t freestyle without his phone, better charge that battery before you hit the booth.. and his flow is the same always regardless of the beat.. just like with “over” everyone jumped on that and went quick on the beat Drake still rappin in his poor man’s wayne style. Selling units don’t mean you ain’t wack.. shit most of the stuff on the radio sells but is straight garbage for real.

  35. Hollaatchaboy says:

    Drake act/look like a straight homo DL brotha on top of his wackness.

  36. Hollaatchaboy says:

    he gonna fuck around with some real niggas and end up in a wheel chair for real. DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!!! ha

  37. Hollaatchaboy says:

    I heard when you by Drake’s album inside you actually get bubble gum just like the old baseball cards! ha

  38. PITRI says:

    i think Do-THE-right-THING is that dude From that Drake vid about to have an orgasim..

  39. Hollaatchaboy says:

    Recall on Drake’s cd… apparently it won’t play if you try to put it “straight” in… Best buy said you can return it to any store.. just come around to the “back door”.

  40. ummm ok? says:

    so you hate someone because he has a way bigger fan base than drake? cmon man, dont be angry at yourself :/ and drake isnt the new hip hop, he isnt gunna last long. especially with that flow(wait wat flow?) eminem could rap about a fucking coffee mug sitting on a table and still make it hot, JUST BECAUSE of his flow(numerous flows) so YOU CAN SUCK MY DICK you retard, you shuld be ashamed of yourself for even being a fan of DRAKE. i seriously cant comprehend how a “male” can feel comfortable accepting his likings towards drake…..he makes music for bitches

  41. Do-THE-right-THING says:

    i think PITRI is the biggest STAN FAGGOT OF ALL TIME! FUCK YOU AND DIE OF AIDS AND CANCER!!!

  42. Mikey Haze says:

    @ummm ok?

    If its okays for niggas to fuck with Em talking about giving head and anal rape, guys should be able to vibe out to Drake…Just sayin, don’t be such a hypocrite, that is why niggas hate in the first place, THeres enough for two rappers at the top

  43. Hollaatchaboy says:

    Em talks about anal rape.. Drake actually the one taking it in the ass.

  44. Enzo says:

    @Hollaatchaboy

    And you know this how? Its really funny how you guys feel the need to make up stories to come to grips about your own Sexuality

  45. flow J says:

    @Pitri lmfao that fag is calling you a stan wow……isnt he the one getting all emothional about drake like that fag from new jersey in the other drake post PUSSY BITCHES NEVER WIN!!!!

  46. Hollaatchaboy says:

    Dude drake is so gay when gay people pass him on the street their like “fag!!” You sound like a homo too.

  47. Do-THE-right-THING says:

    @flow J

    Your name should be Blow J

    cuz u suckin Pitris dick you FAGGOT ASS FUCKIN CUNT BITCH. I HOPE YOU DIE OF ANAL HERPES INFECTION!!!

  48. Hollaatchaboy says:

    Drake run from pussy like he a mouse. beeeelliieeevvveeee that. ha

  49. Enzo says:

    @Hollaatchaboy

    SO i guess your one of the Gays on the street then? SMH

  50. cp says:

    Wait, you’re comparing Em’s SSLP first week numbers to DRAKES??? GTFOH!! Drake is the most hyped artist in history with mass appeal. Slim didnt have the same hype or mass appeal as Drake so stop comparing please, you sound like a dumbass.

  51. flow J says:

    @Do-THE-right-THING

    Damn i heard that same joke from a fag….i guess yall are related….You must be a little kid…tell me when you grow up…

  52. Zombie says:

    @Do-THE-right-THING

    Lol drake is the new hip- hop.? hhahaha.

    gotta give props to drake, 475k.

  53. ummm ok? says:

    @ mikey haze

    yea, its called a JOKE, you out of all people, just like every other person in the whole world KNOWS that eminem talks about shit like that for the laugh of it all, and it causes controversy, hes the only rapper who even stands out from all the rest, true or no? yea true. every other rapper out there feeds off each other’s music and recreates it. just like em, its just his style, but at least its a style that isnt freaking played on the radio 24/7 or a style that you can 100% expect the next rapper to come with. so for that alone, i rather stick with em.

  54. Donn says:

    Can’t wait to see Em’s sells, cus i keep thinking to myself what if Em’s album doesn’t sell as much as y’all think what excuses y’all will give. Just enjoy the music and if u ain’t buy albums, dont’ complain or mention sells lol

  55. cp says:

    PS…HI MY NAME IS came out the same day as the album. The only promotion he had as far as singles go was “Just Dont Give A Fuck” which did not cater to strictly the teen audience including FEMALES.

  56. PITRI says:

    Do-THE-right-THING haha i dint even mention Em in this post..

  57. Fat Boy says:

    @do-the-right-thing
    Damn nigga that joke was Corny ASS FUCK!!!! I’m guessing Your one of Drakes Dick Riding Fans SMH pitiful

  58. DARKAQUA says:

    THAT’S A GOOD LOOK…NO HATE HERE! 😉

  59. ummm ok? says:

    i wouldnt even be surprised if drakes label decides to purchase like an extra couple thousands of copies just to not look bad, that really wouldnt be too surprising. and RELAPSE sold 608,000 in U.S and a mill worldwide on its first week, and it wasnt even great. recovery is a thousand times better and even prob his best album hes ever dropped, PLUS “not afraid” sold almost 400,000 on itunes on first week, for one fucking song, 400,000 sales, right behind the projected sales for drake’s entire album…pft. so for those who are even slightly doubting recovery’s sales..look out.

  60. ummm ok? says:

    and looking at even more statistics, the video for drake’s FIND YOUR LOVE has 14,661,622 views on youtube, and was added there a month ago. eminem’s NOT AFRAID was added almost 2 weeks ago and already has 19,219,438 views. recovery hasnt even came out and its above thank me later on pre order sales on amazon.com……when it comes to numbers, you cant go against em. and thats FACT

  61. So Icy Boi! says:

    Eminem is not gonna sell no more than Drake …Da only reason Em sold dat much last album was because he was coming back from being retired and people was waiting for new music from him

  62. Fat Boy says:

    @ummm ok. Thank You I didn’t know that….. Either way I wish best fir both artists

  63. Gordon B. says:

    I wasn’t going to bring Em into this post but you compared Slim Shady LP first week sales to Drake, ok Drake won, now lets see TML do 6-7mil total.
    Ok now that we’re are on it let’s see if Drake can drop his second album in 2011, and let’s see if it sells 1,79mil first week, over 19mil total.
    Ok so let’s see if Drake is still recording platinum selling records in 2021, 11 years after TML and let’s see if he has sold over 80mil records by then, artist of the decade plaque by RIAA you say, ok let’s see if he got one of those.
    You still sure you want to play that numbers game?

    That being said Drake did a lot better than I thought he would, and I salute him for that, but don’t bring those garbage ass numbers on if you can’t take it.

  64. money mitch says:

    Im not a fan of drake or eminem but there are some seriously angry people on this shit, catching real emotions off a rap blog.

  65. ummm ok? says:

    LMFAOOOOO, Gordon B. just owned everyone, well said. and also @ so icy boi….em’s albums never flop when it comes to sales -_- sooooo, yeap, good luck with that

  66. Do-THE-right-THING says:

    @everybody

    im sorry yall im just mad at the world right now cuz this one NIGGA PUT IT IN ME TOO HARD AND IT HURTS SMH…….

  67. .... says:

    man i like drake,but i know eminem is a lot of better,eminem is legend and i will buy recovery too,shut up haters

  68. pablo escobar jr says:

    so how much money is baby making of this?

  69. Oj Da Cornball says:

    LOLOLOL, the ball riders are mad right now. LOL
    Jay-z did this last year without Drake’s hype. LOLOL

    This cat is the most over-hyped artist of all time.

    Well, now this is over onto Recovery, I Am The West, and Detox as real hip hop albums.

  70. Funeral service on the way says:

    ay do the right thing, im bouta kill ur mom.

  71. Zombie says:

    @ Do-THE-right-THING

    why you tell flow j to die of anal herpes infection.? just cause your about to die like that dont mean you gotta jinx other people ahahha.:

  72. Zombie says:

    Does pre-order sales count as first week sales.?

  73. Drucifer says:

    LOL, where all the idiots who said he was gonna do a Million in a week??……Unrealistic motherfuckers man

    Seriously, announce yourselves……….I wish I would have taken bets on this shit

  74. Drucifer says:

    @ Zombie

    Yeah, everythhing sold throughout the first 7 days, whether pre-ordered or not. counts

  75. Drucifer says:

    @ So Icy Boi

    Wanna place a bet on that??……….I bet He sells around the same amount, if not more, Em’s fans are pretty loyal

  76. flow J says:

    @Drucifer hes a gucci mane/waka flocka fan meaning hes broke and dosent buy albums and is a bootlegger

  77. I FUCK HOOKERZ AND JIZZ ON THEIR TITTIES says:

    em is gonna move a milli in the first week ,he got huge fan base in europe .drake appeals to tight pants wearing black kids and white college kids

  78. Zombie says:

    @ Drucifer

    I mean like say if 200,000 people buy eminem album on amazon now, and on itunes now does it count for the first week sells.?

  79. Zombie says:

    @I FUCK HOOKERZ AND JIZZ ON THEIR TITTIES

    Ofcourse eminem is going to sell more than a milli in a week but that will be world wide, in the us only he wont sell a milli, hoping he does tho.

  80. flow J says:

    @Zombie yes everything counts from selling albums..album downlaods….and song downloads….on itunes, everything is going to count………im geting mines at Target though

  81. imeafk says:

    @Do-THE-right-THING Man u are idiot sorry… comparing SSLP with TML and Ems promotion with Drakes… just stop it….

  82. Zombie says:

    Yeah im getting mine at target too.

  83. Drucifer says:

    @ Zombie

    Yah, If 200K people buy it on Itunes now, those numbers count towrds first week numbers, thats what I meant

  84. Donn says:

    Lol, Em’s not gonna do a mill in a wk, chill, he’s gonna sell but just stop it. Wayne locked that down and it will never be done again. Free Weezy

  85. Thank Me Hater says:

    @Gordan B WHO THE FUCK is comparing Em’s numbers with Drake’s?! Please point them out to me. I don’t usually go the fuck in but cmonson….but anyway I actually thought Drake would do more. This is extremely hard to do in this day in age though. Congrats to Drake even though the album doesn’t warrant the hype and that’s not hating…that’s just bein COMPLETELY honest…… RECOVERY

  86. LOL says:

    @Donn If Wayne locked the mill mark down….which he didn’t because Em did it before him….then Em locked down the 1.7 mill mark down and THAT will never be done again. I don’t mind the Free Weezy part

  87. myspace.com/politikdapolitician says:

    what drake bring to the game in my OPINION…and u can say im jockin or whateva just because im making a comment…i aint trippin…but i think he bring some of the dopest hooks in a while…whether singing or rapping or both usually…his hooks are some of the best in the last 5 years…meaning hook when he is rapping on the verse…not like T-pain hooks on other peoples features but hooks on his own sh**…google ‘whyhate?themovement’ to report haters now!!!…thank haters…when my song hits please comment and talk sh** so i can get paid!! Thanks

  88. REPOST says:

    I wasn’t going to bring Em into this post but you compared Slim Shady LP first week sales to Drake, ok Drake won, now lets see TML do 6-7mil total.
    Ok now that we’re are on it let’s see if Drake can drop his second album in 2011, and let’s see if it sells 1,79mil first week, over 19mil total.

    You still sure you want to play that numbers game?

    That being said Drake did a lot better than I thought he would, and I salute him for that, but don’t bring those garbage ass numbers on if you can’t take it.

  89. Thank Me Hater says:

    @myspace.com I agree 100% with that statement. Drake has some fucking dope ass hooks….like for real

  90. TEFLON DON ! says:

    Taking into consideration all the marketing dollar($) he got and the fact that universal record,cash money record and young money record bought 85% of the projected 450-475k first week sales this is a BIG FUCKING FLOP

  91. LOL says:

    @Gordan B Don’t forget about Em’s Grammies and his Oscar as well….wonder if Drake will do that? Actually I’m pretty sure he WILL win a Grammy

  92. Bunz B says:

    hes wack? but yall know all his songs word for word….haters kill yaself, yall cant stand to see another n*gga make it….if yall could act/sing/write/rap like does, yall would do the same exact sh*t, its called using the talents that god gave you…all good though yall will thank him later i guess?

    and its not even an “opinion” thing,anymore, its yall just plain and simple: Hating

  93. LOL says:

    @Bunz B shut the fuck up!! Everything is fucking opinion. AND I DON’T know his songs word for word dawg!! If you have your own opinion take that shit and fly with it!! I doubt I’ll be thanking him later because that shit was garbage!! As someone said in one of the blogs I was on earlier Drake OWES ME AN APOLOGY. Eat shit and die!!!

  94. who cares!! says:

    Good for Drake!!

    I got the album its alright. I feel like I heard most of the songs that i like on the radio weeks before. and now im tired of them….*shrugs*

    How may Albums Did Em’s SSLP sell? 280-what? STans YOU CAN THANK HIM NOW!”

    That’s who the fuck is comparing numbers, so get your glasses, sit down, read the posts and try to spell the name right next time you talk to me.

  96. Wat the fuk eminem in his debut sold 23 million with the marshall Mather lp first week 2 million

  97. Drucifer says:

    Nobody is ever gonna over-take eminems saes record because the internet has made it impossible, add that too the fact that he’s still alive and adding to it, Em gonna be the best selling MC forever pretty much…….

    Like with Drake, no hating because I have nuthin against him, but he’s the most talked about MC in the game, got all the buzz in the world and his first week gonna be at most 500K??…..Respectable numbers, but the last MC this overhyped was 50 Cent and his numbers shit on those, hell even his 3rd album had a better first week then that, Curtis did 700K its first week I think

    Ems first week will probably be around the same as Drakes, maybe a little higher, maybe a little lower, but Em’s on his seventh solo album still puttin up them digits, lets see what Drakes doin on his 7th CD, cause the way the games goin I doubt he gonna be around that long, todays rappers are disposable…….

  98. Roy says:

    Are people really arguing over this shit? First of all, if Em doesn’t sell more than Drake in his first week, it seriously doesn’t fucking matter. They’re two completely different artists with different styles. Not only that, but one is a hip hop legend, and the other is an up and coming rapper ready to prove himself. In Em’s point of his career, sales don’t mean shit to him. Interscope cares, but he doesn’t. Drake on the other hand does. He’s still got a ways to go before he’s set for life.

    Yo, and to the Em stans, don’t worry. Em has the star power. INTERNATIONAL star power. Drake won’t be anywhere near Em’s worldwide sales for Recovery. That’s the truth. So you guys have nothing to worry about.

    This whole Em vs Drake thing is just completely stupid. There’s always a competition. Mostly because Em stans have to start shit. You can’t compare the two rapper’s sales. One is the best selling rapper of all time. The other probably won’t ever get near it. That simple. Let’s just all move along here.

  99. RES says:

    I would understand all that anger if DRAKE and EM would have beef, But they don’t!!!!!!!! so why are you hating on one of the greatest rap artists of all time(eminem) and one of the best newcomers(drake), who find each other cool!?!?!?!?!?!?! support hip hop…and don’t act like a 3 year old baby!!!!!

  100. PITRI says:

    It’s Obvious why They are comparing and arguing and shit..cus their Release dates are so close together..DUH!!!

  101. Drucifer says:

    @ Roy

    people just do it because there the most talked about, like in 02 when everyone on the net was arguin bout Eminem and Nelly who was gonna sell more……….Its just cause of the publicity

  102. Roy says:

    @Drucifer

    It’s pretty pointless.

  103. Gordon B. says:

    @Roy
    Well this time it was a Drake fan who started the shit, I’m just a big enough stan to defend Em’s track record when someone tries to shit on it, but I also don’t hate on artists.
    There’s a bunch of music I don’t like but why would I hate on the artist who is just doing his thing, it doesn’t make sense, does he do any harm to me, no so why would I hate him.
    I also said in my previous post that I salute Drake for doing those kind of numbers, even if I haven’t heard or plan on listening to his album.
    And finally to the support hip hop statement, I support hip hop by supporting artists I like to listen to, I’m not going to go buy a Drake album just because he’s hip hop.

    I have no problem with Drake doing his numbers either, I’ve said on this site a dozen times while I personally find nothing about his music intresting at all, I’ve seen him in interviews and he comes across as someone who’s at least half way intelligent and Appreciative of his position, which I like seeing alot more then the Minstrel show, Flossing Retards overtaking the game at the moment, so I have nothing bad to say………Do I like his music, Hell now, too Will Smith-feelin to me, I like my rap R-Rated and a little more aggressive, Drakes music is alot more suited towards my neice then me, but with that said, I’d much rather buy her this cats album then Gucci Manes….So I’m cool with it

    And comparing this guy to Eminem is like comparing A Rokkie to a hall of famer, no point in it, Em accomplished more so far then anyone and is still at the top of the game 12 years deep into his career……Drake got here 5 mintues ago, let the man accomplish summin before you make stupid comparisions, its not fair to Em or Drake

    hey…jus wanted to jump in the sandbox wit u guys…u know the ones who are “receiving and giving shots” to each other for other men (thats pretty gay) who really can careless bout this blog, they both white and they both gonna get paid of your culture NO MATTER What! This is just extra pocket money for drake who been on a tv series that ran for years…n more much more money for eminem who study and perfected rap,hip hop or whatever u want to call it, to FOREVER being known as the highest paid rapper with skill…In that’s not justin the USA…other countries…in you believe him when he says its for the love it…saddd..he get paid more than those who created it…n you penniless fans are arguing abt which white man gonna make more…yall must be black…got to be.

    Just cause the women buying it

  115. Drucifer says:

    @ So Icy Boi

    lol, even if drake does outsell Em, who cares???………..Em sold 80 million records, Drake got a long way to go before he catches up……..SMH @ Em haters, If he sells alot of records you’ll try to discredit it, if he doesnt you’ll brag about it……..

  116. dani says:

    Congrats to Drake.

    I hope Em does more, but that doesn’t take away from what Drake has done.

    I’m an Eminem fanatic, but i hate these stans too.

  117. The Editor says:

    This is all very girly and I mean that in the most derogatory way possible

    Drake do you homeboy, what are you guys executives at Universal

  118. mrme2 says:

    This album is bland, its just him compaining about money and fame. The gratitude can wait, but therapy now might not be such a bad idea.

  119. Javito_1 says:

    C’mon, 475k is a disappointment, not because these are bad 1st week sales but because DRAKE set the bar higher. When you say you’re the “Greatest ever” and that that you’re album is gonna do a mil in the first week, and then all these magazine publications say your album is the most anticipated of the year 475k is a slap in the face lol…… Drake is fake as hell and he’s far from hip-hop…

  120. Midnite says:

    Fuck this Bitch!Couldn’t care less if this dick sucker sold a mill 1st week.He is making BITCH MUSIC!!!Fuck Aubrey!!!
