Nipsey Hussle's Victory Lap sells 53k first week

[tuckgod]

AOTY so far

Nip gave the west coast it’s first classic since GKMC

To a real nigha

Nah Q did that

 

[macadomusic]

Bro that aint happening lol


Whats a "flop" depends on the artist, you should know that. If Drake does 60k 1st week, issa flop, but for someone like Nip, its decent/expected numbers Nip aint that big to be expecting 100k out the gate lol.

Incuding streams , yeah he will

Incuding streams , yeah he will

I don’t see it happening, but I’d be happy for Nip if it did happen tho. It’ll be a slow grind

Issa fact tho. A teckashi 69 is gonna be expected to sell more than a Nipsey Hussle because 69 is way more popular and has gotten more spins, streams, YouTube views etc that Nipsey in 6months than Nip has in his whole career. shyt just the video for Kooda has 88M views, that one video has more views than every Nipsey Hussle video you can find combined lol. I’m a huge fan of Nip but I’m keeping it a buck.

Answer this, if the Young Gunz and Lil Wayne drop an album today, both do 60k first week, who flopped and who had GREAT numbers?? Or did both flop in your opinion?

You know damn well 60k is a flop for that rainbow haired fakkit who's got way more money behind him then Nip and also had free promo on all star weekend due to all the fukkery which is why he did it all for sales anyway. Not to mention dude got like 3 singles at the top of the charts

Bruh 6ix9ine has more money behind him since when?? I told y'all nipsey gettin pushed hard by his label he got PSA's on Sirius hip hop nation tellin everyone to go out and buy his album. Tekashi never got that

 

[GeeEffKay]

for nipsey this isnt a flop at all, especially with the way things are now

 

[TL15]

Tekashi is 21
Nipsey is 32

21 year olds consume music at a much higher rate than 32 year olds (assuming they are the median age of their fanbase).

Music sales today are highly affected by streams and digital plays. Based on content and age alone, Tekashi is a much more "streamable" artist than Nipsey, and that plays into the younger demographic. And for people who say Tekashi is independent He is signed to Universal...the biggest label in music.

Quality > Quantity. Nipsey will have a very strong debut album. Tekashi's fans won't really remember 3 tracks off of this album once "Boonk" or whoever else comes out

Right. Nipsey has like 8m Youtube views for Rap nikkas. Tekesha has like 100m views

[thelonious21]

[wire28]

beef with :henrysmile: and think your album sales wont take a hit

all that chirping and couldnt move more than 60k units :henrysmile:

 

[RennisDeynolds]

Stop moving the goalposts nipsey wants to project himself as an enlightened street scholar but got forced to fall back by a reporter

40k is a flop. 53k slightly better pretty good considering no singles got traction. He lost to a fake gimmick child molester - no way around that
