Kiss Land just might be the happiest place on Earth. Early reports from HDD indicate that Abel will come in tomorrow at #2 on the Billboard charts with an estimated 97,985 in first week sales.
As for 2 Chainz, his sophomore set B.O.A.T.S.2: Me Time is expected to land at #3 with 60,644 while Janellé Monae’s The Electric Lady closes out the top 5 with 47,894. Congrats all.
UPDATE: Billboard has the final verdict. The Weeknd 98,000. 2 Chainz 63,000 and Janellé Monae 47,000.
now watch MMG flop in a week… I smell <20k
Damn 2 Chainz 60k.
What will Drake do? I say 700 – 800k
“2 Chainz” he says in a sad ad-lib voice.
yup, i’m thinkin mmg will do about 25k
2 Chainz had a decent album. That Mannie Fresh track is dope
That’s awesome, great album. No radio play. Great to see people support great music.
self made bout to do triple c’s numbers..
Y’all know Drake cd doesn’t drop till next week right?
If he had a single he would’ve smashed the charts
Reblogged this on Big Mouth Underground and commented:
Rap Radar has the scoop on what’s going on this Weekend
I wouldnt have guessed that The Weeknd would outsell 2 Chainz first week, but 2 Chainz is gonna kill it on the singles anyway.
I guess 2 Chainz doing a few extra shows brought him 20k more than I predicted (40k).
Damn, from 100k a year ago to 60k this year? What a drop 2 chain. Congrats to Weeknd though. And Janelle Monae had solid numbers too even with no single that I ever heard on the radio.
Sold better than I thought too. Good shit.
Janelle Monae’s album makes the Weeknd’s album sound like scrub material.
janelle monae on bad boy?

^^^^ nigga talkin bout mmg #s. lol
Not a big MMG fan here but to the dude who says 25k first week you forget wale is on that shit? wale steady puts out 140k+ releases. No way this cd goes under 100k and thats off the wale love and maybe 50k from Ross fans.

hahahahaha!! damn… you gotta learn some stuff… smh…
@herbsaac
Fuck man, you just stupid. Not even a Kanye West feature would make that sell over 100k, let alone Wall-E. 30k-40k tops.
how the fuck 2chainz did 150k to 60k LMAO gtfooooo
numbers are in
Self Made 3- Maybach Music Group (Atlantic) 50-55k
Those numbers are good for Self Made 3 – I was expecting 40K tops.
