LOL @ the haters who said Tha Carter IV wouldn’t sell after the first week.
Who is buying his album????? defiantly some fake shit going on.
NO ONE this year sold platinum in their first week, not lady gaga, not Adele not em.
ok all you young money fans, you can come out of your cave and congratulate wayne but after that, just go right back into it cause you have nothing else important to say, you’re opinion doesn’t really mean anything.
Wayne stay sucking that mongaloid dick
YELAWOLF NEED TO JOIN YMCMB !
THAT NIGGA SOLD 40-50K HIS FIRST WEEK !
HE NEED ALL THE HELP HE CAN GET !
AND PLUS MAC MILLER SOLD MORE THAN YELAWOLF… AND HE IS A INDIE ARTIST !SMH
EMINEM DIDN’T PROMOTE YELAWOLF RIGHT !
SLAUGHTERHOUSE GONNA BE THE NEXT ONES TO FLOP !
WATCH !
HA !
[…] Read the rest of this great post here […]
RED>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>c garbage 4
the reason lady gaga sold milli COPIES first week is becuz her album was sold for 99 CENTS on amazon. fuckin bullshit
congrats wayne.
You a fucking faggot if you bought this album.
[…] […]
i honestly thought he hit 2 milli way earlier…i mean, he hit 1 mill in a week. but congrats tho.
WTT STILL IS BETTER WENT double plat like two weeks ago CATCH UP NIGGAS!!!
@Nickhova
RELAPSE > WTT…
HA !
Lil Wayne is a piece of Ugly Trash.Anybody whom supports him are Weirdos.BTW,I’m from NewOrleans.
All this promotion talk is stupid leave that to cracker execs! Everybody who listens to rap and goes on blogs knows yela has an album out ppl just aint buying simple as that. And I know hating on Wayne is the cool thing to do on this site but Tha Carter IV was one of the better albums this year. Abortion, nightmares of the bottom, she will, even the interludes were dope. Don’t fuck with the skinny jeans and all but I respect niggas that do what the fuck they wanna do however they wanna do it. Sheep ass niggas
So, since everyone these days claim that sells are an indication of the hottest rapper, does that place eminem at the top? Wayne doesn’t come close to what em sells.
a milli first week…
2 mil… 3 months? fcking fake AHAHAHA!
Dayum… that shiii was garbage 2… & this is coming from a Weezy fan Carter 3 on back…Drake & Nicki not even 2x’s platinum after 1 and half/ 2 yrs later & they are every where (especially Nicki) putting out better material & doing 1234676779898090 collabs with hip-hop & pop giants.
and where is the Watch the throne sales lmao, ymcmb wins
i dont know anyone who bought this album
@IDontGAF
They already platinum… thats 2 platinum albums in a year for Kanye….Your point?
Carter 4 was still garbage….

@jayoconn
Me either….
Can no one here read? Why are you all saying that it went platinum in a week? It was 2 weeks…Radioactive>>>>>>>>>>>>>>C4
It’s actually at 1.5M units sold. Hasnt cleared 2M yet, just certified shipment of 2 milli.
This is definitely the most curios release I’ve ever seen.
“She Will” bangs but Lil Wayne releasing an album with no HUGE radio singles Isn’t selling a million in it’s first week.
Not taking anything away from the man, just seems odd. Carter 3 was dope AND had “Lollipop”.
Couple years later, in this current industry/economy, there’s no way in hell this sub-par album with no top 40 radio love is selling a Milli in it’s first week let alone reaching 2 Milli in a few months.
Obviously not good for business if Wayne comes out selling anything less than 500K, So once they began to “pad the stats” they couldn’t all of the sudden stop buying up copies.
Somewhere in New Orleans there’s a basement full of Carter 4 Albums guarded by a dude on a laptop buying up digital copies.
Who is buying this shit????I dont even…
950,000 in first week, and it takes 3 months to get to 2 million? talk about winning, look at Adele.
Can we remind folks that McDonalds sells bullshit to billions of people a day. Fuck yo numbers nigga
y’all realize WTT has NOT went DOUBLE plat right? thats, TWO mill sold. They went PLatinum in a few months. quit hating, Niggas in paris= ONLY GOOD TRACK
Drake surpassed kanye musically, and weezy surpassed the throne sales wise. YMCMB stay winning.
Damn. I have to play niggas in parris 8 times the next concert so I can reach wayne. That shit cray. “shrug”
What? Why??? How?!?!?
well weezy has is fans so expect these numbers..but i still think carter 4 lack some substance but its a okay album..2 mill hey YMCB does numbers….Yelawolf was promoted right its singles wasn’t
“y’all nigass chicken ……. Pollo”
“you pussy cat ……. Hello kitty”
who listens/buys this kinda shit ?!?!?!?
“Yup !” : You’re an idiot for 1. Official sales don’t come out till a day or two after..Ex. Drake’s album sold 30K less than the ESTIMATED UNOFFICIAL sales..Think logically. And also what the fuck does Yelawolf have to do with YMCMB? They’re doing it big. Shady Records always doing it big. Who the fuck cares. Yup ! you’re a fucking dumbass to even consider Yelawolf signing to YMCMB. They already got Tyga. WATCH THE CLONE. faggot. YELAWOLF = HARDER THAN YMCMB. Oh and if the race cards gonna come out. I’m black..I do not co-sign any nigga (tyga) on that album cover. His music trash too.
Im sure baby has over 1 million copies of carter iv. toss me one birdman i STILL havent heard the album
Congrats to Wayne on his success, though I personally did not buy Tha Cafter IV, because I didn’t think it was a good enough album for me to spend any money on. As far as sales go I guess YMCMB is winning. Drake, Nicki, & Wayne that is. Wayne founded YMCMB so he doesn’t count. Drake & Nicki had a big enough buzz and bidding war to go wherever the hell they wanted, so their sucess isn’t because of the label nessecarily. The rest of YMCMB have all been fucked over. Drizzy & Nicki bout to get 2 albums out before any of them, except maybe Tyga, even drop their debuts.
CASH MONEY IS WACK AS FUCK
Lmao… Congrats Wayne. U know ya shit was TRASH but your appealing 2 your current demographic n getting money my dude… I cant hate on that. I just hope we get that Carter 2 gillie raps before u retire! **No Shots!**
Lol, ahhhhhhhhhhhh the sweet smell of haterade lol
McDonalds sells a lot of cheeseburgers, doesn’t mean they’re good. Just means they’re ubiquitous, cheap, easy and over processed.
Garbage music that niggas actully spend there money on. Fuck Waynes numbers, Adele fucking saved the music industy she been in the top 5 in billboards since January motherfuckers. People still treat hip-hop likes its not music. Do you ever here about motherfuckas leaking a Taylor Swift album? Thats why that bitch did a milli in a week and their always country artist always at the top of the charts. The hip-hop community is the only only ones who talk bout numbers and we barley move units unless your gimmick rapper like Wayne. Don’t talk numbers unless you willing to spend your hard earn cash on a artist you sso called support. LET’S GET J. COLE A GOLD PLAQUE.
Haha Reality is catching up with people suspecting Birdman is buying albums.YMCMB not a label, but a way of life!!!!
How come RR gives props to this guy for double platinum but not give the other guy props for 2x platinum Run This Town and 3x platinum for Empire State of Mind?
.
How come RR gives props to this guy for double platinum but not give the other guy props for 4x platinum Recovery and 5x platinum Love The Way You Lie?
For those wondering who is buying Weezy’s albums, here is part of the answer. Lil Wayne was on a country wide tour 2 months ago… arenas were packed with fans, other were sold out! Thats just your answer, if you sell out arenas how can you not push numbers!!! Quit it haters.

Salute to Weezy. He stays winning.
Like this shit if you don’t suck.. https://www.facebook.com/elektrokardiogramm
As for yelawolf – i said it before say it again – big mistake for him to sign with shady records.
Everyone hating on Lil Wayne are retarded. I bet y’all still listen to Tupac.

Baby didnt buy no cds his buzz was there for C4
Wayne gained so many fans for c3 and it got great reviews therre for fans were buzzing for c4 then wayne went to jail and told his fans that he was writing in hthe cell which brought hope that he was bringing back that c2 style then does a very big performance on mtv the night c4 releases which got allot of white people buying his album. The 1st week got allot sales but then his reviews were bad which slowed his sales.
fake numbers .
the album wasnt even that good. hes a hustler for selling off a mediocre album. cant hate him for that. hip hop is dead.
i cant believe there are 2 million suckers. no way. more power to him tho. charles manson reincarnated
@y u mad ive been saying that reason all along, big arena tour+promo = mad record sales
@Y U Man nigga said it all
lmao at you faggots who say sht like “ymcm wack” or “ymcm killed hiphop”. i bet half of you faggts dont even know what ymcmb is. Yall just basing shit off lil wayne nicki and drake? Nigga they full of underground signies that can out rap most of todays “best rappers” damn. Cory Gunz? Tyga? Gudda? Shortdawg? These niggas can rap without comercial success. shit. ymcmb got the charts on fire, AND the streets on fire. lol if ymcmb isnt hiphop than wtf is? 50cent sure in hell fell off, so did Dres ass. And where the fck is snoopdawg? Jeezy can barely keep the ball going. Shady, who is one of hiphops greatest, cant even push decent sales from yelawolf. Wayne proves that his artists dont sell because wayne is there ceo, nigga they sell cuz there music quality. lmfao, and who are these two niggas walking around calling themselves “the throne”? idk who these niggas are but they must not be so important if wayne break there itunes record in 3 days. niggas in paris 7 times? really? nigga rappin like he outa breath. my nigga, you like 45 he keep rapping like that he gonna have a heart attack. yall keep hating on Cashmoney like that, im beggining to think your just jealous they runnin shit right now, otherwise busta ryhmes wouldnt sign and T-pain and the game wouldnt be running to cashmoney. shit i heard chrisbrown want in on that sht too.
YMCMB>Anything else this fcked up game has to offer.
im ouut
You know the haters mad @ this!! Lol. Album is dope. His recent features, not so much. Congrats Wayne.
FLOP
Numbers dont lie. That team pushing units
