I dont think thats a bad number for artist like Quick. He isnt anywhere near mainstream, so only people affilaited to rap check for his music. That itself isnt many people, and then half of the people that check for him won't buy the album, becouse it isnt good enough, or its just easier to download it.

Mack 10 made 5-6k in first week with 'Soft white' as far as i can remember.

Bro, that's actually an alright number for today's climate. A lot of people are still expecting huge numbers, shit has changed bro. Snoop had MAJOR promo and di like 50-60k, 10k for Quik is actually cool.

I'm positively surprised.

Isn't that just CDs? Digital sales won't be known for a little while and per song sales have higher earnings as well as mechanicals....He's doing better than you think i'm sure.

10K ain't bad. I expected more like 5-7.

Didn't Mack 10 and Kurupt do like 3K first week?

Huh? Where did that come from? Digital sales are known just as quickly and are included in regular soundscan (im the marketing manager at EMPIRE Distribution so yeah, I know). Per song sales are not, that is correct, though.

You guys always release digital numbers per week? I'm in Canada, we don't see them until like a month later from what i've noticed so far.

We don't release numbers, but the Nilsen Soundscan includes up to date digital numbers for album sales. That might be different in Canada though, I don't know about that.

Yeah it's probably the same here, my mistake. I have to look into that and find out now. I figured 10K was ok for CD sales but double or triple that for digital but I guess not.....shitty

Just as a comparison... Cam'ron and Vado's new album "Gunz N Butta" that came out did 7k
