After joining him on stage last night, Drake and Cole hit the Best Buy in Union Square to cop a few copies of Born Sinner (and one copy of Take Care). Hell, Drizzy even footed the bill. That’s love. Follow suit and get your copy here.
Drake is like…let me help your sales, so I can shit on them my next album….
Dope.
Video private now? Guess Drake feelin different about it today.
That new Freddie Gibbs ain’t what they want. Damn!!
sometimes i brag like hov beeetch
Hold on Hold on hold on
This dude bought copies of his own albums, isn’t that considered cheating? Isn’t this the shit Lil Wayne get’s played for. I fuck with Cole and love the album but idk if I feel a nigga buying copies of his own shit to beat the numbers game. Just me
“We should get a basket…Oh Yea!”
lmfao niggas gotta luv it
Awesome
Drake and Cole = 2 future legends
Make sure yall cop Born Sinner.
@Donn
Yes, just you. Because all kinds of artist hace done this. Across all genres. Stop it.
Of course Drake paid for it, he’s the only guy there who sold enough albums to afford that many copies! Really though, this is a bad idea for Cole…for one, taking all the copies off the shelf at maybe the ONLY location in the world that might sell that many copies of Born Sinner keeps it out of the hands of the fan….if he wanted to make that big of a sales impact he should’ve bought them online. I can only imagine that anybody watching this video would be like “What the fuck he’s buying his own album? Oh well, I guess I don’t have to now”. You don’t see Kanye and Jay going into Walmart and buying Yeezus…isn’t the record company supposed to give the artist a bunch of copies of his album anyway? Why he buying more? Anyone who he would give it to is one of the few people that might actually have bought it! Well, at least we know he sold SOME copies.

@ Donn
^ was thinking the SAME thing.
–
Got the album. Good album. Two things I’ll never understand about rapper’s 1) promoting liquor and 2) buying their own album. I know someone is going to say “it’s the same as if you owned a clothing,” or something to that effect, but its not. “Everything that’s understood, don’t need to be explained.”
J. Cole partner tweeted that drake purchased all them copies of Born Sinner, not J. Cole.
the way my bank account is set up!!!! lol that shit was cool they are probably gonna give em out at the concert anyways its waters. its a good album. Drake buying the weekend trilogy that shits mean.
He bought about 50-60 copies I am sure the difference between him and Kanye won’t be 50-60 copies… it’s more so symbolic than it is cheating….
[…] Rap Radar […]
Sooooo Noone’s gonna comment on Drake saying, “Oh they got The Trilogy, I’ll cop one of those” Subliminal shots….
Cashier whipping out her umbrella to throw all that shade! Hahaha! Artists supporting each other will never be a bad thing.
DOPE SHIT!!! cant hate on drake for supporting the homie
#bornsinner
#nothingwasthesame
best video of the born sinner series. I like seeing these two cats together, hope J. Cole gets as big (commercial-wise) as Drake and they stick around for a long time.

so u think drake copping trilogy is a subliminal shot? like really? niggas stay reaching. smh
we r lovin this album. lamar brings his style nicely on that Forbidden Fruit. the realest DID write this. the hook on Born Sinner is sticky icky. J writes so true.
Nice!
@ M.T considering Drake and the Weeknd no longer fucking with eachother yeah… especially considering how nice Drake is with the subliminals “Guess its funny how money can make change outta nigga, some nobodies started feeling themselves” def about the Weeknd…
If anything, it shows that he still has love for the Weeknd than anything. You niggas reach more than fucken Halo
J. Cole and Drake + Kendrick have some GREAT chemistry
no yeezus cop
cool to see for sure
Are you all really talking like hes trying to push his numbers up, they bought like 30 copies haha, he’s selling over 100k……. Unbelieveable haha
This is like me working at McDonald’s, and paying to eat for the same burger I make
[…] Drake & J.Cole Buy Born Sinner […]
Imagine if Kanye did the same thing. “He’s so self absorbed that he bought 50 copies of his own album”
Yall dumb as a bag of rocks
You thin k he just buys 50-60 copies and juat kept them for himself prolly signed em and handed em out in the street for free
Its symbolic becuase its like another nigga veing yea buy this its worth the money

Yall need to getbsome pussy or sumthn you all sound like some ol naggin ass bitches
RICH NIGGAS MAKING POOR DESICIONS
HA! U CAN HATE ON ME NOW !
they should’ve bought Yeezus and learned something jussayin WHY STOP BEIN A STAN NOW lol
Now I know all those album sales are fabricated.
Is it me or has Cole wore that same outfit for like 3 days straight?
Wow I didn’t think folks in the comment section could get any dumber. First, Drake bought the albums not Cole. Second, 50-60 copies isn’t “beating” the numbers game, that shit may barely make a dent. Third, y’all Dont know what he’s doing with the albums he could sign them and give them away at a show. Fourth, stop reaching for shit to hate on and just listen to the music. Fifth, making a separate account to cosign yourself is lame..I see y’all doing that shit y’all not fooling nobody. Cole world. Born sinner.
@JustMyOpinion you Dont understand why rappers promote liquor? Do you know who P. Diddy is?
But why would u buy the albums to give away. The purpose of putting an album out for retail is to sell it lol. That’s why it’s on the shelf lol. Niggas hustling backwards. And the nigga said in the video, I gotta beat Yeezus

Lmao. I noticed that.
Nigga doesn’t wash his garments.
Cole world no (spare) blanket.
People do buy albums to boost their sales, but if you really thought this was that then you’re bugging the fuck out. 50 copies don’t mean a damn thing for your sales. They were doing it as a symbolic gesture.
And Drake fucks with The Weeknd’s music. That’s why he bought the album. He already said in an interview that he was NOT dissing The Weeknd on that record.
People stay reaching…
@Donn You’re reaching buddy lol we just said you buy albums, sign em, give em away. Its no different than a company buying the album and giving it away. Ain’t that what Jay and Samsung doing? But I bet you LOVED that idea huh? Its called marketing but I think your lane is fashion and other shit. Cole winning and there really amount of reaching you can do to change that.
And I didn’t know there was a right or wrong way to sell an album lol its your shit. Buy it sign em and give em away or let them sit there its gonna be in the fans hands at some point either way ain’t like he buying em and letting them sit in his trunk lol selective as fuck with the hate
& drake CLEARLY bought the albums not Cole so who’s hustling backwards? Drake essentially gave dude 400 dollars and helped his sales how can u hate on that
They buy the their album to stimulate sales and give the copies to less fortunate people who can’t afford it or maybe give to someone and make a new fan…. Its called good business!
those dudes are hella close. the new and upcoming face of hiphop if you will. and all that is is drizzy showing support for his nigga J! Fuck i mean i’d for sure go out n cop a bunch of copies
