Im not saying its going to or wont push those kinda numbers...but the Lost Tapes had very little stamina on the charts.  And Made You Look was DOA as a single.  What is your rational for your belief?

Made You Look wasn't made for the radio, this album is just for the real hiphop heads...It probably won't sell 2 million, closer to 1-1.5 but NYC is really thirsting for this shit cause reaction to Jigga's album have been mixed...

Havent all Nas albums gone at least platinum?  Also-God's Son has gotten mixed reviews as well..and New York is only one market (albeit a big one).  Dont get your hopes on HUGE numbers..I predict 350,000 first week at the most..who knows-I could be wrong.

teecee:
Dont think NAs will sell as many as Jay Z as the albums are completely different.  People never seem to get this!  And as if Lost Tapes was gonna sell anything,  a bunch of tracks everyone had, and no video, and you think it is supposed to sell?  That album was for true nas fans, and while it iwas a commercial failure it was an incredible album and Nas third best ever behind illmatic and IWW....

As for the reviews, noone in their right mind thinks the NAS is 5 mics, but they are giving it better reviews than Blueprint 2.  Still, no way this sells like Blueprint 2, that had a huge opening week and their are still potentially huge second singles....and i dont think Bonnie and CLyde 03 is as big as its gonna get.  While it is a wack song, its commercial appeal cant be denied.  NAS will likely sell 250,000 first week, maybe 200,000.  Does this mean Jay;s album is better?  Likely not; if Nas wanted the sales he coulda had them by grabbing Ja Rule, Ashanti, IRv, and Trackmasters and he coulda sold like Jay.  I am happy he didnt go that route, and instead made a decent album.  peace

I hope it does well, but I could care less what it sells aslong as it's released and I have a copy!
