It's not bad considering his fan base is online and know how to get the album for free. Those types of fan bases normally don't buy anything.

You can tell folks who have no fukking clue how the music business works trying to talk sales...
As soon as I saw "$7 a unit", I couldn't read anymore. Folks still going off what Jim Jones and them said years ago huh?
All I'll say is this Joe Budden fans... spin this all you want, but 25-30k is NOT a good look. Chief Keef & MGK flopped on majors, Joe is subpar on an indie. Most indie labels are just smaller major labels... so with the features included, this dude did Curren$y numbers.
Curren$y didn't get a pass for those subpar numbers. Why should Joe Budden?
Y'all gotta be able to admit when your favorite rappers aren't all that commercial wise.

All truth breh. You gotta understand that Joe Budden stans are like a mutant, alien hybrid superstan that relentlessly sucks his cock. Their spin machine is relentless and probably unmatched. That clown could fukking kill Nelson Mandela and his stans will try to spin it into some type of win. The problem with these fukkers is that they wildly play Joey apologists,overrate him and downplay all his fukkery online BUT they don't buy his shyt. The nikka flopped, he flopped. It is what it is.
He sold out . He should be doing more than that didn't banks sell more on e1?

Threads like these are exactly why this fascination with numbers among regular nikkas with no knowledge of the industry, these deals and how these brothers are living needs to stop. LOL @ these being bad numbers for a guy in Joe's position given his situation.

You serious?
Why you think the indie scene is as weak as it is now? These indies don't make labels to sell 50k total especially for an artist that is known to the extent that Joe Budden is. Y'all know why record sales matter? Because if these dudes can't sell, these labels have no use for them. Only cats like Flo-Rida and Pitbull don't have to worry about album sales because the singles/tours make more money than any album of his ever will.
There are indie rappers selling what Budden will do first week or better and yet it's okay for Budden because "we don't know that man's situation. He's good." That's ironic because the reason most of these rappers end up selling out is because the album/tour sales aren't what they should be. So... hence what we have now in rap.

I kinda don't care tbh, breh.
Either way, he'll keep feeding us - he's been much worse off and given us free music. You forum number honchos can have this argument. It's tiresome.

Pooping on your head :umad:
Melonie Fiona had these same first week numbers with her last album and now the sales are at 250, 000... So this Budden album can do decent numbers.
