800K? That's pretty fuckin unbelievable... 800K is about as much as God's Son and Blueprint 2 sold in their first weeks of release put together...
The official numbers are in........he sold 805,000.........thats the second highest ever for a black artist [the first being Doggystyle, which did 870,000 in the first week]......my homie just emailed me these numbers:Snoop, Doggystyle - 870,00050 Cent, GET RICH OR DIE TRYING - 806,0002Pac, Makaveli - 725,000DMX, And Then There Was X - 696,000Biggie, Life After Death - 688,000^^^those are the top 5 selling first week sales for a black solo hip hop artist.
Damn, thats pretty impressive. It took 'Pac's "Better Dayz" almost a month to reach 500, 000. Congrats to him.
Just to clear things up these are the official totals. From mtv.comTherefore 50 cent did beat snoop's record sales.Get Rich or Die Tryin' will be the top-selling album on next week's Billboard albums chart, moving in excess of 872,000 copies, according to SoundScan figures released Wednesday (February 12). With the tremendous total, the LP is the best-selling debut album since SoundScan started its tracking system in May 1991. Only Snoop Dogg's 1993 debut, Doggystyle, comes close, with more than 802,000 copies sold in its first week.
