    Coles was ok -7.5/10. I would've took out the skits, runaway, chaining day, trouble

    cosign homes had way too many songs he could have tightened it up and cut it to 12 songs or so

    ? 's acting like Ye was in the position where he couldn't get the right promotion.. or couldn't get any radio spins. Kanye chose not to do huge numbers, and thats how we should look at it. He didn't care about pushing major units, and thats exactly what happend. He didn't flop, but 300K for him is a gimmie. Those rave reviews ain't matching up. I'm not hating tho.. he's still one of the GOATs

    Props to J.Cole tho.. This ? is winning right now!

    That's why it's being released through the Samsung app on the 4th. It won't be available in stores until July 7.

    Of course Colebrook eventually out sell ye. You can't put out no album with no promo especially after the release. Q

    Kanye is a Hip Hop heavyweight tho. The music should sell itself.

    Lol nah bruh. It's people who still don't even know he released an album.

    Like who? The day it leaked was one of the highest populated days in The Reason Ive seen in a looong time. I know u seen Twitter blow up when it happened. Hell they were talkin about it on my "white based" sports talk radio station the day it dropped. How they know? Cause its Kanye West



    Do you really think he would've sold the same if he actively tried to promote it like he did with MBDTF

    Yes I do If not less cause more ppl would realize how wack the ? was. Pretty sure he/DefJam didnt promote it for that reason.


    The promotion behind his last and album and this is night and day. With him having a baby right around the same time, I don't think he was too worried about doing big numbers this go round. The cd didn't even have a jacket with it or album cover for that matter

    Those numbers are not really impressive. Kanye is supposed to be pushing a million a week like Wayne does. Drake went gold first week back to back and Cole does half that. Both these album will fizzle out before reaching gold. Both of these ? just came off platinum albums. From a business stand point these are not good ROI numbers for million selling artist. Kanye flopped and Cole numbers should of been higher.

    True, but Kanye probably didn't spend nearly as much on marketing. The label probably invested less in his album, so even if he has lower sales, he's probably making more back than J. Cole, who's been pumping singles and videos for probably months.

    Yeezus is trash imo. Bound and blood on the leaves (that drop halfway through the song is vicious) are the only two songs I still bump from that album. I still feel he didn't do Bound justice though. Ye proved that he's in the upper echelon with this no promotion stunt pulled. Very few cats can do that and still sell 300,000...very few. Dope "less is more" concept but the album is still doo doo grits, what a shame.

    Born Sinner is good but took me a few listens. I honestly think it's a album that his fans appreciate. Crazy how he killed that New York Times track and he's from the South. You got dudes like French and Asap from NY that could never drop a gem like that.

    I listened to Mac Millers joint and it was a little to trippy for me but I'll give credit when it's due. He cracked 100,000 on a indie label. Pulled a upset tbh and is the real one winning here. I'm happy though since I like rooting for the under dog. Improved lyrically (people are wondering if his TDE label mates ghostwrote for him, who knows) and the Loaded Lux feature was insane.
