Some weeks & numbers missing, but I did what I could do. It's a number #1 sales included only hip hop music. I changed the second week for the first week in one album.

14.11.06 358,988 Doctor's Advocate, The Game

[akcranker - The Dangerous Crew Movement]

Best I can tell.. I actually bought about 45 of those albums.

[Dogg Ly Dogg]

Marshall Mathers LP sold 1.7 Mil on his first week damn didnt know that

[Birdie]

Marshall Mathers LP sold 1.7 Mil on his first week damn didnt know that

Yeah, it went Diamond I think.

[Blood$]

I actually bought 45 of those albums.

yo same here lmao

I'm pretty sure some of those dates are wrong though, unless they are supposed to be the week after the album dropped

[Black Excellence]

Marshall Mathers LP sold 1.7 Mil on his first week damn didnt know that

you didn't know that ? LOL. that year i was anticipating tha last meal and restless like a muthafucka. i was incarcerated at the time and time(2000) and hadn't even heard chronic 2 or top dogg yet. it was one of the best years in hip hop.

I'm pretty sure some of those dates are wrong though, unless they are supposed to be the week after the album dropped

It ain't wrong, because this is week's #1. It's possible that some album of the other genre outselled the first week of the album you're watching. Dig it?

09.12.06 680,052 Kingdom Come, Jay-Z

crazy to me how KING still outsold KC..If that don't prove Jigga bought his own records lol..

[Birdie]

If that don't prove Jigga bought his own records lol..

I think it's nothing abnormal these days, unfortunately.

Maybe T.I. buys his own records, you'll never know .

ya, its sad..doubt it cause artists tend to buy their albums 1st week to get that big splash..jigga got that..and it's 2nd week/3rd week/etc. was weirdly lower than TI's #s in those respected weeks..found it weird since his 1st week was 160K higher..
