  2. Dking says:

    By the way im first

  3. DJ says:

    I thought Big Sean would’ve at least dropped 90-100 thousand copies?!

    Beyonce picked the wrong song off of her album for the single. She should have used End of Time or Countdown.

  4. industry says:

    What about weekend at bernie?

  5. Congrats to Big Sean, especially cause we went out opening day and it took three shops before we found it. It may have been under shipped. 85 is nothing to sneeze at these days.

  6. BRONX says:

    Congrats to Big Sean with 87,331 units scanned.

    He hasn’t lied to his fans or made up any fake stories to get him where he is.

    RESPECT

  7. Hello says:

    well atleast he done better than that wack selfmade shit and beyonces gonna sell everyone knows that

  8. WHEN DID 87,331 BECOME A BIG WEEKEND, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU’RE ON A MAJOR LABEL AND YOU DROPPED A POP MAINSTREAM ALBUM?

    THIS IS QUID PRO QUO JOURNALISM. AND IT IS THE REASON WHY RAP RADAR IS A JOKE.

    HOW MUCH MONEY AND ACCESS DO YOU SET TO GAIN BY BEING JAY Z’S AND BIG SEAN’S SIDE PIECE?

    BY THE WAY, FINALLY FAMOUS AND 4 SUCKED. TWO TRASH ALBUMS. MUSIC IS DEAD IN THE MAINSTREAM.

    PLEASE START THE HATE ON MY COMMENT. THE TRUTH HURTS I KNOW.

    @ COLD DEATH

    YUP!!!! BEYONCE NEED TO GO ON A 2-YEAR VACATION!!!! PEOPLE ARE STARTIN’ TO GET TIRED OF HEARIN’ AND SEEIN’ THIS BITCH!!!! TOO MUCH EXPOSURE!!!!

    ….AND BIG SEAN IS TRASH!!!! CORNY FLOW AND CORNY NURSERY RHYMES!!!! ELEMENTARY SCHOOL KIDS BOUGHT HIS ALBUM!!!! HA!!!!

    DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!

  10. BIG SEAN FLOPPED. 87,331 IS NOT GOOD AT ALL WITH ALL THAT PROMOTION AND FEATURES.

    NO I.D. EVEN GOT ON THE ALBUM, AND HE COULD NOT PUSH MORE THAN 100K?

    BEYONCE’S 4 AND BIG SEAN’S FINALLY FAMOUS NEED TO PUT IN A TRASH BIN.

    AND RAP RADAR CONTINUES TO BE QUID PRO QUO JOURNALISM FOR JAY Z AND THE HOTTEST FADS.

    PLEASE START THE HATE ON MY COMMENT. THE TRUTH HURTS I KNOW.

  11. Jaymalls says:

    COLD DEATH is a fucking hater. If u dont like some1, then dont take the time out to reasearch their album and production credits… lol! THen take the time out 2 leave a essay about it. Dude sold more than all of Currency’s CDs, Wale 1st CD, Self Made Vol 1, Ghost Face CD that dropped ’10, Shock Value 2 by TImbaland, etc. DONT HATE COLD!

  12. Fuck Ya Life says:

    Damn I thought Beyonce shit was gonna flop speaking that the album leaked like a month ago and from what I heard it was wack.

  13. Word UP says:

    I remember someone saying Cole needs a big song like My Last to move units. Obviously not, cuz even still moved below 100k….which is unsuccessful in my opinion. Imean BoB moved 80k and still went Gold but thats cuz he had Airplanes and other songs throughout the year that helped carry him. Imean I enjoyed Big Seans album tho. This is pretty decent I guess….but all im saying is, Chris Brown or other RnB singers on your hooks wont gurantee you huge numbers like a Wiz or Drake. So dead that shit right now.

  14. RC says:

    Niggas stay counting sales but when their favorite artist do crap numbers they say its about the quality of the music.

    If youre actually paying attention to Beyonce and Lady GaGa sales, well youre just gay. Who the fuck on RapRadar would give a fuck about Bey, except YN. We all know YN is a Jay stan. No shots YN.

    Big Seans numbers are ok. But scary at the same time. With his pub and radio spins, I myself expected more.

    This is like the Death Knell for Cole. Work Our is not on radio and his buzz is dwindling. And yes Cole and Sean will be compared, they are peers.

  15. Dead Snoopy says:

    That Big Sean joint is fucking hot. If the label can’t find a way to move those units then they need to pack the fuck up and fold.

  16. E@rl Th@ Pe@rl says:

    Why is everyone still worried about what an artist sales? And then have the nerve to mention Taylor Swift…let’s be honest, Black people ain’t buyin shit; for the most part. Part in why black artists don’t sell much anyway…especially in a digital age where all album sales are hella low, and the album gets “leaked” even before it’s final product. Where’s YOUR album? yeah… thought so.

  17. kallywood says:

    yall expect more from sean? those are good ass numbers, to the general public my last is this guys first song so how are those bad numbers? Shit sounded good to me. Marvin gaye and chardonnay video on the way too and dance (a$$) is gettin radio play and should blow the fuck up. i see more sales and you cant say this guy flopped. If BOB moved 80 K his first week with his singles than sean might has well went gold.

  18. fuk waka!!!! says:

    bey jst moved 310,669 1st week????? wtf

  19. RC says:

    We all know Black People dont buy albums.

    Most of the cats here dont either. They want some twitter followers or fb friends. Its the only reason they comment.

    No real music discussion happens here. Just ocassionally.

  20. Citylivin' says:

    @RC
    the funny thing is their favorite artists don’t release shit lol…..
    …..i’m convinced that these RR thumb thugs/ wifi wankstas will never be satisfied with shit…oh well.
    …..co-sign @DJ…she should’ve went with “Countdown” or “Party”…she good either way tho.
    …..and that Big Sean album is perfect….you don’t have to skip no songs…well maybe “My Last” but that’s it.

  21. Original Will says:

    I dont understand how Big Sean flopped without a certified Single I mean Waka did Half of that and Wale did a Quarter of that Shit he damn near that his 1st release He didnt have half the Buzz Hype Drake had so why would under 100 K Be a flop n to be a critic he has put out the best rap album so far this year I mean Drake or Wayne shit aint out yet but right now Sean is looking at a couple of Nods this year

    I mean shit yall jus call a flop a flop these days wiz sold what like 200 k n yall was yelling flop drake sold 500 k n it was a flop damn yall do know these is debuts so the bandwagoners havent even caught on like they did Wayne with the Carter Series or how they did Jay later is in his Career

    I thinc that man should be proud of those Units when the only artist that is selling more than him on that label is a Pop Mega Star(Rhianna) and His Iconic Rap Boss and a Nigga who has already shelled out a couple decent releases (Ricc Ross) who else on def jam sold more than him Jeremih had a fan base n he didnt sell that and Dream has a huge fan base n he sold damn near half of what sean sold

    SN: Self Made, Finally Famous those are the only two albums i can say that are good from hiphop in 2011

  22. Original Will says:

    o yea Weekend at Burnies go to and Dom’s From The Westside with Love and K.Dot’s Section 80 but those wont get they props they deserve and j.cole finally gave us a title it was a good week for Hiphop last week

  23. RC says:

    How is Big Sean a flop when his numbers are comparible to BOBs who JUST became gold not to long ago, with way BIGGER singles and even heavier airplay.

    This debut isnt stellar but its respectable. This guy was damn near unknown until this album.

    The Big Sean hate here is not understandable at all.

    Seems everyone is knocking the hustle.

  24. THE EXCUSES HAVE STARTED FOR BIG SEAN.

    STANS ARE QUICK TO SWITCH UP WHEN THEIR FAVORITE ARTISTS FLOP AFTER SELLING OUT.

    KEEP RIDING HARD. IM SURE BIG SEAN APPRECIATES YOUR EXCUSES.

    PLEASE START THE HATE ON MY COMMENT. THE TRUTH HURTS, I KNOW.

  25. Converse says:

    @Word
    ^

    Haha? True Big sean had alot of radio play and also top the chart? And still flop?! lmao so fuck a #1 song if its not going to boost sales

    #COLEWORLD
    and LFTUG

  26. Sean Don says:

    @Phily law Fuck off who your top 5 newschool rapper if Sean is wack.

  27. […] Rap Radar Did you like this? Share it:Tweet This entry was posted in Music and tagged Beyonce, Big Sean. […]

  28. Dre says:

    Stop hating.. Some people are just proned to a smaller fanbase…some rappers don’t need a single and will sell..but others like Cole who WILL have a hitsong with workout will do like 80000 also

  29. Dre says:

    Another thing big Sean did not gain any new fans all the way to his release date…everyfuckin interview was about how he was discovered…there’s a lot of people who don’t know big Sean so fuckk .. Those are great numbers for him..

  30. me says:

    album sales is built upon ur

  31. Sonny Carson's Son says:

    Kelly Rowland gonna do more albums than beyonce this go round HA!

    im not surprised about Big Sean. His bars are elementary plus he had too many guest on his debut.

  32. me says:

    album sales is built upon ur number of albums and this is his first album why all d hate he had a decent first week sale and it would have been better if yall showed love rather than download his shit for free and still criticise him…black ppl dont buy albums…im black.

  33. King says:

    Its too easy to say Big Sean flopped….what if you were in his shoes….i respect him for selling an 80k….it is big he did not even have a top 10 single like b.o.b. !!

  34. BS THAT BLACK PEOPLE DON’T BUY ALBUMS.

    WHY BECOME A MUSICIAN IF YOU FEEL THAT WAY, IN A “BLACK” GENRE.

    BLACK PEOPLE DON’T BUY CRAP AND HYPE.

    SORRY BIG SEAN, THE WHITE SUBURBAN KIDS AND BLACK SELLOUTS ONLY PUT UP 80K.

    THE ALBUM WAS WACK, RECYCLED, AND OVERHYPED. THIS DUDE IS OVERRATED.

    PLEASE START THE HATE ON MY COMMENT. THE TRUTH HURTS I KNOW.

  35. Hip-Hop Fiend says:

    BIG SEAN aint flop dumb ass niggas. You acting like he a established artist going on his 10th album. It’s debut album. Go back and check on Nas and Jay-Z first week numbers for their debut albums. @Philly Lawyer 87, 331 became a good week ever since illigal downloading and it’s fucking 2011 how many people really buy CDs anymore that is a great accoplishment. Talk that shit Big K.R.I.T album come out I like him but I’m sorry that album gonna flop hard. One of you rappers Blu don’t move numbers first week or at all. Congrats to Big Sean wouldn’t drop an album same day BEYONCE does. Lets see Drake, Lil’ wayne, or kanye wouldn’t even do that.

  36. RC says:

    Let the trolls troll. Dont feed them.

    Big Seans supoorters win this round.

    The comparisons to simliar artists in the same lane with similar numbers is spot on. Saying Sean flopped is pure hate at its finest.

    The naysayers have no ammo or evidence to back up their statements.

    Id respect these clowns if theyd come out and str8 up say they hate an artist and hope he flop instead of making it up.

    Numbers and comparible situations are in favor of Sean.

  37. JHP says:

    Damn, I like Sean & the album, I hope he at least gets a gold plaque of of it eventually. It’s hard to make a hit in this industry nowadays. The Adventures of Bobby Ray sold about 90k the first week with Nothing On You & Airplanes. TML sold over 400k the first week with Over & Find Your Love neither of which were as big of singles. “My Last’ was still pretty big, it helped raise Sean’s profile to a lot of people, it was a big urban single, not quite a big crossover single though. Sean just needs to promote the hell out of it, and hope Marvin & Charddonay can blow up. And focus on bettering his album next time, and singles

  38. Lil Majer The Cartune says:

    Cool! I was probably crazy for hoping that Big Sean would debut at number one! That’s why I didn’t buy Bey’s album yet! Probably buy it this weekend now that those first week numbers are in!

    SUPPORT AND BUY MUISC! Congrats to the both of them!

  39. unban my ip WHAT I DO TO DESERVE THIS! says:

    i love bey, HOUSTON ALL DAY… we proud

  40. Fela Kuti says:

    Big sean had one single and he sold this much.wait til the other singles drop.FF album is 4/5 for me.impressive album.

  41. devante says:

    Big sean numbers are decent everyone was expecting him to have drake and nicki debut sales. but he’ll just have to work harder to build his brand up next album

  42. LA says:

    Nah Im not a hater but when you shit on my fav. rapper im gonner shit on yours! So flop is a flop ya dig!

  43. downsouth says:

    87k is flop stop tryiing to draw the shit up different damn

    dude want go gold wiz did good numbers this nigga flop

  44. CALI says:

    FLOP
    SHADY/AFTERMATH ALL DAY

  45. RC says:

    Lol, these niggas dumb.

    People have came in and presented factual evidence to support the Big Sean didnt flop debate and not one hater has an arguement with facts to support that he flopped.

    See thats what happens when you cut the bullshit and think.

    Lol facts in an arguement is now called “drawing it up different.”

    Man you people are so smart…./sarcasm

  46. da 5'9 says:

    lol big sean floped, wait till the slaughterhouse album, they moving over 100,000 untis first week. Shady 2011!!!

  47. Sean Don says:

    Shady flop to so what?

  48. TA says:

    The bigger you get the more they gunna hate. 87k ain’t bad for a dude that this time last year nobody knew about him except his initial fans. Especially since his project leaked 3 weeks before it was relaeased. Defiantly not a flop Internet haters smh

  49. TA says:

    plus album was wayyy undershipped

  50. James says:

    WHY IS KANYE BUYING HIS ALBUM??

  51. Word UP says:

    This aint a Flop, but I wouldnt wish 87k first week on anybody. I would wish them at LEAST 100k-200k if not the obvious choice of Gold or better.

    So yeah, take that how you want.

  52. Takeoff Zebra Baby says:

    Any time the numbers indicate that an album will never even go gold, I consider it a flop. Therefore, this is a flop, and an even more disappointing one because he obviously tried SO hard to sell out.

  53. Fela Kuti says:

    Whooo’s house is diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiissss?!!

  54. Mr.November says:

    How is that a flop? I barely even heard any promotion for Big Sean, he isn’t even established. Y’all niggas love to hate man.

  55. yep says:

    why is everyone talkin like this is 2002 and record sales actually mean something? these days its even hard to find white people that are buying music legally. Big Sean got decent airplay on hip-hop stations but as far as pop stations go they weren’t playin him at all so for those of you saying he had huge pop/mainstream radio support you are very wrong. All this in consideration 87,000 copies is more than respectable.

  56. Subaru says:

    BIG YAWN FLOPPED!

    why RR put his name together with Beyonce.

    DON’T EVER DO THAT AGAIN YN!

  57. Jaymalls says:

    @ Da 5’9… slaughter houses first album didnt even sell more than Big Seans debut… and all 4 of the niggas and each of the got at least 8 years each on him. Stop cocksucking and congratulate. 90% of you niggas hating illegally downloaded the shit anyway… DIck-In-The-Booty #ClosetFans
