Snoop & Dre doing 36k is impressive. More than Common & Pete Rock and LL Cool J
I'm more impressed by Common's numbers tbh...that snoop album is everywhere, they're promoting like like crazy. It's actually underwhelming tbh

I mean they is bigger then all them lol

I’d say for name recognition LL, Snoop and Dre are equals.

Common a little less but he’s still a big name within entertainment

Point is their all legacy acts. All 30 years in. Cracking 30k as a legacy act in the streaming era is a W in my opinion.

Exactly. And that’s what annoyed me about the haggling over Nas sales these last couple years. I forgot which KD did nearly 60k first week…that’s insane success. Should be celebrated. Instead we had people trolling and hating lol.

KD1- 45k first week
KD2- 56k First week
Magic 1- 22k first week
KD3- 30k First week
Magic 2- 21k First Week
Magic 3- 16k first week

With Magic 3 he dropped it on a Thursday to celebrate his birthday so he missed out a whole day’s worth of streaming and he didn’t drop a single or video until months after release. For the albums where he bothered to promote and had videos he easily was doing 30-50k.

These are good numbers for an artist like Nas though, cuz dude never goes crazy on the promotion... 36k for snoop and dre with all that promotion is not good at all. I don't think people realize the label put more money to promote Missionary than any other album released in the last 10 years.
