How can you hate on that.
JEW UNIT!!! his label and his jewish family bought 148.914 copies! drake bought the last copy cuz of his jewish loyalty! J-J-J-JEEEW UNIT!!!
GIVE ME YOUR JEW GOLD
Childish Gambino “Camp” was the best hip-hop album of 2011. But most of sleeping on him, so you don’t know he droped a REAL classic. Not just throwing the word classic around like every other album that came out this year.
“Now for some stats: Mac becomes the first artist in 16 years to debut independently at number one. Congrats to him and the entire Rostrum team.”
Correct me if I’m wrong but Big Machine Records was an independent record label when they released Taylor Swift’s album Fearless which debuted at #1, so Mac would be first independent RAP artist in 16 years to debut at #1, not the first artist period since then. I hate skewed facts.
@Niyemortal
^
that was Taylor’s SECOND album. not debut.
Fuck MACeroni & Cheese
^
the fact that it came out today and youre calling it a classic means that you are throwing the word classic around. fyi.
This guy music is terrible…. But much respect to him for moving those numbers.
@yo the fact that it leaked well over a week ago means yours your late ass a motherfucker dumbass. See what I’m ralking about SLEEPING.
LMAO MALCOLM FROM MALCOLM IN THE MIDDLE IS A RAPPING THESE DAYS?
Childish Gambino Camp> Every other release this year
i didnt even know it had been released. looks like whichever city he is from bought all the albums.
Indie and he still shitted on Big Seans first week. Imagine if he was on a major. Second coming of Eminem sales wise.
Good for him, but the album isn’t good. Congrats for the accomplishment, but he should try and improve the music.
Album is cool but radioactive just leaked! 4 songs in already
first in 16 years, with 148k but 16 years ago dogg pound sold 277,500k for the top spot. but they sold over 2 million records.all Independent. no hate but how many more will he sell
this shit sucks, another white gimmick
Heard about the album, listened to it and didnt like it. Congrats tho.
You know how Steve Stoute talks about the tanning of America I think he should reevalute that statement because many hip hop artists now are infact White I call this internets “the whitening of hip hop” e.g. Mac, Yelawolf, Kreyshawn, MGK etc.
Mac Miller is my man but the #s are forged, it has been on preorder since August or something, they wouldn’t release it until it got 100k pre-orders.
“For the first 25K pre-orders, Mac will drop the albums title track, Blue Slide Park. If 50,000 fans pre-order the album, then Miller will personally donate $50,000 to the Make A Wish foundation. Finally, if 100,000 kids lay down their benjamins for the album, then Blue Slide Park will be released earlier than expected.”
Imagine if Eminem put his album on pre-order and said I won’t release it until 1.5 million pre-orders it, that would make 1.5 million first week.
Even though it’s been able for purchase for months..
@Stop 4 artist don’t make hip hop em is great but the rest we are going to have to wait and see!
Hip-Hop needs more Nigger rappers not Cracker rappers.
Black motherfuckers are gonna be the minority in hip hop. We have to stop this! we need to get Krs-One, Russel Simmons, and Lauryn Hill so we can a ralley going.
lol @ cheating to get the #1 spot
HAHA HE FANCY HUH

white people stealing from blacks again… as usual… history repeats
i know how the Africans and native Americans feel
@swizz beats your a dumb fuck. The release date was always Nov. 8, Mac said if he got a certain amount of pre orders before release date that he drop the album early. But they didn’t get enough pre orders. They did get 25K pre orders so he drop the song “Blue Slide Park”. Get your facts straight dumbass
this is crap, his album like dude said has been available for pre order for a while.
smart marketing plan tho.
theres a party on 5th Ave and you are all invited…
Yeah who said he sold 150 k
And who say/s he got 20 million you tube hits
You tube hits are easy to fix…myspace is a joke with hits also
ever heard of the russian mafia the are the al capone of illigal internet hits.
You can pay them a little money and they fix that
I know this one girl you got 1 million myspace friends…on myspace fix up site ..HA!
Billdboard sound scan are more tricky but it can be done…believe it
Love him or hate him, he made it independently, with no features. He made history.
MAC ALL DAY! haterzzzzzzzzzzz
Congrats to Mac, he is a dope mc. Album is pretty wack tho, needs better production. Dont see those numbers going to high. Better luck on next one!
Alicia Keys
Are you serious? I remember when I copped C4 I was wondering what the f*ck Blue Slide Park was doing on there at #10 or something like that. just a pre-order button.
Dude said it himself check his interviews, I’ve been following mac for some time, these sales are 2-3 months worth of sales not 1st week. If I’m right next week is gonna be a 90% drop
has anyone heard the album? like seriously how so many and no body here has heard it
dude is whack
congrats..thats really cool
pre orders are just a way to cheat on first week sales…but they gotta have any edge they can with this digital downloading age
congrats to him
but he still sucks
Swizz Beats you are a dumb fuck. he didnt say he wouldnt release until he got 100k pre orders, he said the release date is november 7th, but if they get 100k preoders BEFORE that date, then they will release it EARLY. you dumbasses look like fools tryign to come up with any reason to discredit someone you have never met LOL get a life!
@Swizz Beatz oh yea u are a bitch for coppin C4.
congrats to the man for proving yet why these fucktard labels ain’t shit, INDIE IS THE WAY TO GO, PRESS UP YOUR OWN COPIES & SELL ‘EM. Labels is dying or near its deathbed. again congrats mac miller , hope you hungry ass rappers learn something from this, YOU WANT SHIT DONE, GET IT DONE ON YOUR OWN!!!!
This ain’t Hip Hop! Real Pure Hip Hop is Black.
HIP HOP IS A BLACK CULTURE! RASPECT IT OR LEAVE IT
only 3 good songs, but pretty weak album. his mixtapes are better and less corny. fuckin jbone
he released a album? ohmagad
I aint know dairy queen had a rap label.
Congrats, this joint is good for hip hop, diversity.
Another white rapper other than Em that can top the billboards. Big ups.
This shit is forged like ah mothafucka!!! Nobody will remember this next week! Drizzy!!!!
everyone saying hes cheating for putting it on preorder first of all he donated 50,000 to make some random kids like 100 times better and second of all its called smart marketing.. why would he settle for less when he knows 100,000 dumbasses will preorder it.
shit any of yall would love to be selling 150,000 copies of anything.
I’m a big fan of Mac, but I was disappointed when I listened to BSP.
I like his old stuff a lot more than this.
Still, keep it up Mac! Big things coming your way man.
And by the way… a looooooot of haters on this site.
Jew?
White?
Not real hiphop?
So?
He’s doing shit you’ll never be able to do.
Gotta love the haters! At least he’s not rapping about the hood or slinging dope… rap about things you know always works best! BSP is different from his previous mixtapes but I still feel it. Btw ypu cannot compare the Drake album to BSP. I was a bit disappointed by Drake, too much RnB for my taste but the ladies probably love it and it sells so who am I to judge
Someone mentioned Childish Gambino: buy his mixtape “Camp”, it’s really hot, couldn’t stop listening for days
RADIOACTIVE>BLUE SLIDE PARK>SHIT>TAKE CARE
Frat Rap is the worst genre of hip hop out there. Get this shit off of rap radar.

@Swizz Beats and everyone else thats bitching about the pre-order messing with the numbers, do you not think all the fans that pre-ordered would not buy it the first day that it came out?? If im willing to pay the measly nine dollars for that before ive heard a single track of course im going to buy the whole album whenever it drops. You all underestimate Mac’s fan base, we are the Most Dope fans!

is
a
classic.
