according to www.hitsdailydouble.com
kurupt will sell 90 k in the first week
aaliyah will sell about 200, 000
foxy brown 120,000
craig davd 100,000
these ARE unofficial numbers
-
wow :o if kurupt actually sells that much in the first week than this album is already a success, how much did "streetz" sell in it's first week and all together. matter of fact, how much did "kuruption" sell so far?
-
Kuruption - Gold [But It's A Double CD So Only 250,000]
Tha Streetz Iz A Mutha - Gold
Space Boogie : Smoke Odyssey - Platinum [Hopefully]
-
aight thanks homie
keep in mind that 90 000 is only an estimate and the odds are against kurupt to go platinum, i hope he does it but even with 90 000 sold in the first week it is going to be hard for kurupt to find 1000000 people to buy his album, peace.
-
i SERIOUSLY doubt foxy and craig david will sell that much, if d-12 only sold 200,000 it's first week than foxy and craig david don't have a chance of selling that much...aalyah will becuase she has a hit single and is fine as fuck and had goood promotion, kurupt should debut good, since tha streetz iz a mutha debuted alright and ALOT of people who bought it loved it, and are gonna cop his new shit fo sho but i ain't gonna say he's gonna debut at number 1
-
90 K ain't that bad... he's got a decent chance of maybe hitting platinum
-
90 000 is just an estimate, i don't think it'll sell that much in it's first week as much as i support kurupt, peace.
-
yeah i want kurupt to sell as much as possible... cuz i ask people sometymes "u kno who kurupt is" and they;re like "no"...
i hope he hits platinum cuz tha album is tight and deserves to be platinum IMO
-
Streetz sold about 60,000 its first week...But it did come out the same day as 2001 which sold over 500,000 the first week...Eastsidaz sold 100,000 the first week and went plat so Kurupt has a chance...
-
Foxy Brown will definitely sell over 100,000. She had major promo here in NY. Aaliyah's joint is a major hit, no question. Craid David, I'm not sure for those numbers but girls love him so... Now, for my man Kurupt, 90 would be cool. I don't know if he'll go platinum though, not really because of the first week sales but because he has a weak ass first single and video. Gold could be the goal. And I'm not even 100% sure that "The Streetz Is A Mutha" went gold even though it was knockin'... I remember it didn't even hit Billboard Top 20 R&B Charts when it came out and it was somewhere at the bottom of Billboard 200. So it gotta be checked...
-
foxy will definately sell the most for hip-hop this week, i hear that track "oh yeah" all over the place around here and "Bk Anthem" gets rotation too so i think she'll sell at least 100 000 in the first week...i wonder if she released her cd the same day to compete with kurupt, think about that..., peace.
-
if d-12 only sold 200,000 it's first
Mr Correcto is bacc!!!....LOL J/K naah, but for real D-12 sold 370,000 the first week, so there is a chance of Foxy selling that much...
But I think 90,000 is a disapointment...All my friends bought that album, I thought it would sell at least 150,000 the first week...It's all because Tanjint didnt buy his copy!!!...JK LOL
-
i bet if d12 released "ain't nuthin but music" as their first single the shit would still be selling off the meatracks and probably like 3x platinum by now, peace.
-
That may be CORRECT. "Purple Pills" didn't hit it that much (the album sold on the strengh of Em's name and the trust we all have in DR DRE's input) but yeah, "Ain't nuttin but music" would have been a SICK first single and MTV would have probably allowed it to run on TRL and shit... Well...
-
Don't forget Craig David is R&B (who sell more than rap) plus his single has been playing on T.V> and radio 24/7. Its a possibility.

i'm considering boycotting this album,he made 4 fucking versions,that's some scanless shit, greedy bitch made move, he's been hangin around daz's dumb fuckin greedy ass too much, i mean shit these were some of my fave artists but now they'll do anything for a buck...i mean kuruption had 3 free bonus tracks,streetz had 2 now first we have to hunt for all the bonus copies and then pay for 3 of em? and 2pac/daz 1/2 album is good for 500 or even 40 is arrogant, arrrghh i am pissed at the pound,if i can find life i lead i'll probably get space boogie but damn and kurupt is my fave mc...this is fucked...and now that i think about it, if dre din't touch d12 i would have gotten 36 chambers that day instead i got 36 chambers yesterday instead of space boogie because i couldn't find life i live version it was funny yesterday when i got my wu i was bumpin it in the car wiht my homey and my siblings in front of a grocery store waiting for my dad and a black(i know i mention race alot but i seriosuly am not racist but it just makes more sense this way not to say other races don't like rap i'm firckin half mex half white how can i say that? anyway it's just more likely with the black guy no racism intended) security guard starts walking towards me and i turn it down and he's like "you thought you were in trouble?" i'm like "yeah" and he's like "naw i wanna see what your bumping, is that ol dirty bastard?" and i'm like "yeah it's wu-tang's first" and me and he's like "turn it up! bump it!" me and him started talking about rap and mianly kurupt and stuff and then my dad came (my dad is obviously white but i look very mexican from my moms side) and this guy was confused like "this is your pops?" i'm like "yeah" and he turns to my dad and says "Uhhh Your son knows alot about rap sir." my dad's like "he sure does..." and then we left and i just said peace to him.. that was funy as hell to me considering he was a security guard i told my dad that i wasn't in trouble that he liked rap too and my dad was like "i bet he does..." ...ppsshh i love cali in the summer time. peace-Tanjint
-
thats cool, ilove cali in the summertime too but not where i am, it sucks here, i wish i was in LA or even SO Cali :'( i wanna go back down south
-
Yo, security gaurds dont do shit....All they do is smoke outside all day...It's not like they are cops or something...They are actually normal people with lives...
-
I feel bad, I didn't do my part in helping kurupt sell. I've been to three record stores today but I didn't cop kurupt because they were selling it for 15.99 and I only had 15 on me. I gotta go to best buy and circuit city. I can get it there for like 12.99- 13.99 so it's all good. I can't wait to hear this shit.
There is no way foxy is pushing 200,000.
-
I totally forgot about it when it came out on Monday (UK RELEASE DATE) but this made me remember so I will get it next time I am out.
-
Tanjint...Who cares...he's just trying to make more money, just buy the fuccin album...Go to "Best Buy"...they have "The Life I Live" over there...
