1st week sales for Knoc-turnal & Cypress Hill are here....
« on: March 30, 2004, 01:25:13 PM »
Cypress Hill: 48,518 copies, entered @ 17
Knocturnal: 39,756 copies, entered @ 27


Im surprised Cypress sold more than Knoc...Yeah theyre more popular than Knoc, but still, promotion was not bad, he has a video out with Snoop Dogg making a guest appearance.. oh well I guess 40,000 is alright for a west coast rapper.. remember Suga Free sold like 25,000 with NO promotion..so I guess Knoc will go gold in a couple months


Usher had the highest number, dude sold 1,087,954 the first week...cotttdamn

Cypress Hill has more fans across the music board.  No suprise they would sell more.

I think Knoc should've moved more untis considering the support he has from influential people in the industry (Dre, Damizza), he really didn't exploit those connections tho.

major props to usher -

The album tallied the highest first week numbers ever scanned by a male R&B artist, breaking R. Kelly's record of 540,000 for TP2 in 2000.

The album is also Arista's biggest debut in 30 years, breaking the previous record of 689,000 held by Notorious B.I.G.'s posthumous album, Life After Death.

its history baby!

That Usher song is shitty.  Knoc will sell more units when they drop a video for "me or him" with Nate dog.  I wanna hear the new Cypress Hill I actual like "watcha #"
