what y'all think this will sell first week and overall?................ive only heard first single so far but i know bare cats have heard this already so i take its been leaked fully n shit.....
i predict.......
1st week - up to 150k
overall......up to platinum........i dunno why but i dont see this selling like up to 1.5 million copies but i hope it pushes bare units but i cant see it happenin.......platinum would be a major success imo
peace
-
from what i here its sellin out all over the place
-
^^^i hope it does.........i wanna see it sell the fuck out everywhere
-
Hmmm.....great question.
Positives:
Great overall promotion, dope video, much west cost support, three big names, one megastar name, anticipation from last album
Negatives:
State of the west coast, singles weren't exactly great or catchy to appeal much to the general commercial audience, some people forgot about the dopeness of the first album, too many people compare it to the first album, people think they hae all fell off, etc. etc.
Well I'll just guess and say between 100-200 K, more around 150 to be exact. Anything less will suprise me, anything from 200-400 would suprise me in a good way, anything more than 400 would completely shock me.

I Hope U Get Shocked Alot Then
-
I think eventually it will go plat.
-
100k-200k...tops ;)
-
70k in the first week
overall about 350k may be more with a strong single
-

Yeah, if it can make platinum, I would be happy already. It's a hard business these days.

I was suprised that it was sold out at my circuit city...

-
90K the first week..
500K-700K overall..
-
I think it'll sell like 125K in the first week, then eventually go gold. Can't see this one going plat. though. Regardless of how tight it is.
-
first week ~200k
by December 9, 2004 (in 1 year) ~ 1.2 Million
I say it will pass platinum becuz i honestly don't remember any westcoast CD getting so much promotion since dre's 2001. even snoop's PDCTBTB didn't get this much promotion.
-

shit i want this album to go plat everywhere

Honestly, i cannot see this album selling more than 1 mil, maybe not more than 700 k. When you take a monotonous beat and throw Nate DOgg on a hook like every other single, the results are not always pretty, and I certainly dont know many who are REALLY feeling the single besides people on this board. A pretty decent album, but i aint earing a hit single like Bow DOwn, or anything close. peace

but dont forget, nowadays quality dont really count anymore. promotion is the key right here, and people get brainwashed by the media, so if they watch the video everyday and see the wscg commercial all the time which sais "the hottest album of the year" they will probably go out an buy it. lets have faith they will

Here it is. The perfect reply. This album is far from being a classic album, ImO. But you know, that's not important if we talk about sales.

it should sell well being it's release is right before x-mas...i wouldn't be surprised if it sold 200k in the first week...i think it'll go gold pretty quickly like within a month but it'll take awhile to hit platinum, peace.

Also, I notice that many people outside of these types of boards, and the west coast, seem to think the west coast is dead and the westside connection is weak. At my college in FL , other than those from California and a few others like them, everybody else is like "wow you like them? They are sorry" etc etc

It's not passing 100k this week. I can tell by my area. Most people aren't coppin it because they aren't sure if it's gonna be like Bow Down.
