Nas' first ever UK #1? Damn Nasir is winning at what should be the tail end of his career! I'm sure the Amy Winehouse feature helped over there.

[yeah i rap so don't]

Nas The Goat

Yo I think the album was undershipped. I couldn't find a copy of it in Target but they had a nice lil stack of MMG lol. I might just cop on itunes and burn to a disc, that way I can get all the songs

It was Def Jam fucked up Nas first week sales, it will probably still push 140 k though.

Yeah Def Jam fucked up on this one. First week sales don't matter too much for an artist like NaS though. He'll get his plaque soon enough.

 

[buttuh_b]

85k???

 

[NothingButTheTruth]

85k???

Only 55% of the sales were counted. That translates to a first week of about 155,442 albums sold if the album count follows the same trend.

See the "NOW IN: 54.98%" ...

He should be around the 150k mark then. depending on how correct my guesstimate is, and how correct their guesstimate is

 

[NothingButTheTruth]

Yeah, just take the 85,462 and divide by 54.98% or .5498 and you get 155,442.

 

[buttuh_b]

Most of my friends either already have or are planning on buying the album. This shit is crazy. Nas ain't really had a buzz within the people I be around like that since Stillmatic.

 

[focus]

I'm not the biggest Nas fan, but this album is insanely dope. Somebody lit a fire under this nigga ass. Arguably his best album IMO. Imma finally retire "Nas lost" for this one.

 

[WavyCrockett215]

Life Is Good YO! Im just glad Nas is getting the respect he deserves and ALREADY earned over 15 years ago. Nobody in hip hop has given us more classics. Its almost scary that dude is pushing 40 and is still this creative and fresh. Dudes are already recycling rhymes on the mixtapes leading up to their DEBUT album. SMMFH!

Nas would be embarresed to have a freakish groupie like

you in his fan base.
