Drake Taking Care Of Next Weeks #1 Spot
November 16, 2011 · Posted in news · 37 Comments
After analyzing first day sales, HDD is expecting Drake’s Take Care to sell between 675,000 and 725,000 units in its 1st week. Drake will easily take the #1 spot. If the numbers hold, Take Care will be the 3rd best release of the year, only trailing Gaga’s Born This Way, and Wayne’s Carter IV. Drizzy will also be the second consecutive Jewish rapper to take the #1 spot after Mac Miller’s impressive debut.
Childish Gambino’s Camp is expected to sell an estimated 50,000 units.
Webbie’s Savage Life 3 will hit the 25,000 mark.

Take Care > Carter 4
idgaf if you dont agree
@JayMar,
WORD.
Cole Wotld>Take Care>>>>>>>>>>C4
@E.J., HELL YEA
Numbers don’t lie. Good Year for YMCMB.
@Geez,
I Can’t Really Compare Take & Cole World Both Great Albums.
But Numbers Will Do Good Because Wayne Will Buy Them. Duh.
you guys su
tj@Ghetto Bebop, u f*@king retarded bitch.why bring cole into anytin dat involves drake and even if wayne buys drakes album he is buying a classic*go get urs faggot*
@timmy, whoaaa..no disrespect but neither drake or coles album were classics
@ichyowie, you are sick just mention drake’s in saying that!Cole World was a pretty good album compared to anything that came out in 2011
Take Care was a good album. those are some good numbers too. Take Care is second behind Cole World for album of the year.
@B.J,
No it’s not..
yes it is…
Drake can sell all the albums he wants. irdgaf. but ludacris put out his mixtape yesterday and made Drake look bad af. && I think childish gambino needs more recognition.
Numbers do lie… for the simple fact that people don’t pay attention to the lyrical content. They focus on who gets more play on the radio.
@Mr. Propane,
^ word
to quote Immortal technique
” fuck the records you sold
cuz if you go platinum, it’s got nothing to do with luck
it just means that a million people are stupid as fuck”
i don’t totally agree with that quote, but it sort of plays its part here imo
idont like Immortal
technique ,but i like that quote ,guess i got to jam his tracks now . . ! Something relating
I knew already Take Care was going to outsell Thank Me Later. It’s a better more though out album. Also 75% of his sales are women, you impress them, they’ll buy anything.
Yes, Take Care > Carter 4, punk ass Weezy & his big daddy birdman bought 750,000 copies of that 964,000.
Overall Take Care for me was a 8/10. A B-.
Lmao. Okay How do you know 75% of his sales are women ? Hating ass nigga.
@LAGoon, Seriously? maybe not 75% but easily at least 60%, he has skills but he’s not far from being the Justin Bieber of rap music. Unless that’s just me & a bunch of guys are together listening to the guy swoon over girls.
@eromero41, justin bieber is the justin beiber or rap
Sells don’t mean the album is good by technicality. I’m NOT saying that take care is weak. But, you gotta buy the album to see if it’s any good. Unless you bootleg it.
@RiggsDaBoiWonder, didnt it leak a week ago?? and all those ppl heard it and r still buying 750k copies.. good try
@jim,
Dope.^
Savage Life 3 > Take Care
People still listen to Webbie???? Lmao hahaha WOW!!! I hope u was just trying to be funny!!!!!! Lol
@TONe, Couldn’t have said that better…..
This guys top 5 has to be
1.gucci mane
2.Lil Boosie
3.waka flocka
4.o.j. The juice man
5.webbie
……….if he is serious lol
@TONe, Hey if you from DOWN SOUTH then yea you still listen to webbie! He real big down south like in LOUISIANA(thats where im from), TEXAS, MISSISSIPPI, ALABAMA, and GEORGIA.! TBH he aint that bad! He put out gangsta shit and thats what we love down here!
Im from south Ga and i grew up listening to all that “gangsta shit” but theres only a certain amount of tolerance i can have to all that “cocaine” and “gansta” shit my dude. Eventually u have to grow up, my nigga J. Cole couldnt have said it any better when he said “i kno the hood raised you, but theres bigger, better things”.
it’s not about sells, good music is good music. it’s all on preference on what suits your taste. I prefer J.Coles album because he had more rap and verses and didn’t make his album into an 808s … that’s what i’m into, Drake’s album didn’t reach me because I couldn’t relate to it.
@TOBEHONEST, word
Drake’s Album was highly relatable for niggas who actually get pussy.
People hate on sales and YMCMB does them. Cole doesn’t even compare my nigga.
Drake’s in 3rd place for what’s that? oh yeah. Most sales for the year.
Looks like Drake and Wayne conquered the THRONE this year hahaha.
@Geez, AGREE!!! YMCMB >>> EVERYONE!!!
Take Care Album of the year ! Take Care = C4
Weezy and Drake only rappers behind Lady Gaga for most sales of the year.. who else is even close to a milli, and most likly 700k for Take Care… No one..not even cole or WTT !
YMCMB!!!!
