Jay Z had a number 1 album in some form From 98-07
09
2011
2013


His lowest first week as a solo during that span came in 1998 with vol with 350k. He never had a first week under 350k since 1997.

That’s a crazy stat

Everything is Everything - 138k
Unfinished Business - 215k
Best of Both Worlds - 220k
4:44 - 200k (take out the gimmicky bundles)
Magna- 241k (take out Samsung purchases)

Although he didn’t have a year where he was the top selling rapper, at this point we’re grasping at straws in an effort to detract from a camel

The man carried a lot of water on his back

Don’t even ask me how :hubie:

Note: Def Jam numbers look funny in the light

We all know Def Jam was buying albums at the time.. it was a well known thing.

(not to take away how big Jay Z was from like 1998-2003)

Those two latest are second week sales for 4:44 and it was 262k.

And MCHG did 528k, + 1million Sprint, which weren’t counted.


I don’t know why you are lying like Google is some secret website :mjlol:

As far as those other albums, they are not Jay-z albums. It’s like saying Eminem sold 170k in early 2010s cause Bad meets evil did. When he was actually moving 5-800k.

There were never Samsung purchases. If you owned a Samsung Note or Galaxy, you got a free download. That said none of those downloads counted towards sales only certifications (which measures units shipped). Magna Carta still sold 528,000 in its first week.
