J. Cole has the 4th quarter clutch gene.
He didn't have no promo or singles. I'm proud of this dude. Hov needs to thank him. because nothing popped for ROC Nation this year prior to that. Hov deserves a Jsy-Z feature for a remix. -

That's the point. Those are the Superstars, & Cole isn't one. I don't think it's relevant at all but that's the point CB was trying to make. -
Cool. But Whenever an album is "projected" to sell a certain amount, I can't help but think "projected" really means "the label is gonna buy this amount to make the album look good."
-
Lol that goes for every rapper then
-
Dont give a ? about the sales. Its a good album

Nope. They project based on the stores reporting sales. If a label is gonna buy cds, why stop at 350k. Why not 10 million. Lol -
I was told that J Cole wasn't going to be successful and that Travis Porter was going to have a better career than Cole.
-
Good album, but he's got it in him to make a great one.
-
Everybody is acting like he sold 300k already, the thread title says "projected" that means somebody has looked into their magic ball and predicted the future, jay will use his connections to boost sales if the ? flops.
-
Every time Cole releases a new album those old Cole hate threads get more & more hilarious.
? look like straight dummies in there. -

Where did Bobby Shmurda tap out at?
Aaah aaaah aaaaaah! -

U get it...these ? crying cuz they fav rapper ain't a star/a list rapper lol, not like I said he was a trash rapper Or anything, simply stated the facts ain't these ? took off they heels and earrings and went to war for they boo's star credibility, faggotry at its finest, ...anyway, just to put things in perspective, Cole is so lame, so average, so not a superstar, that he's literally, literally, the only lightskin ? in the game that couldn't/hasn't ? Rihanna lmao...that's when U know u haven't made it and are still a C List rapper....word.
We know the big dogs so I won't even mention them, but....Ross, Rocky, Sean, Wiz, 2 Chainz, and Future are all bigger stars than Cole...U can't agree with that ur either in denial or have a crush on this ? ...facto. -
I want these same ? in here that's putting so much emphasis on this ? first week sales to be in the next Nas thread that drops lmao...most Cole fans are Nas fans, watch em all be in the thread crying bout how much sales don't matter and that only ? and HS kids use sales as a way to gauge an album...this thread proved ? do care and that they ain't go outside for like a week after Nas flopped, was in deep depression....sad.

Sales don't effect the music, but its cool to see an artist put up big numbers first week without any promo or a single. Not really sure how you can do that without at least being a B list celebrity my G. Not to mention, I see you put Sean in that list of 'stars'.....that dude opens for Cole at shows LOL

^Thats how.
And u do know more ppl in the world know Big Sean right?
U know who is his ? right? Her fans are now his fans, well not fans that will necessarily buy his music, but a new demographic of people that are now familiar with him...that power move has at least 10 million more ppl worldwide that are familiar with him, more so than they are of Cole...dont compare the 2 again.
Gotta listen to this album again tho, all I heard was generic bars and a whole lot of singing, thought I was listening to a Chico DeBarge album.
Glad real hiphop is making a comeback on xmas day, tho...no singing and crooning just hard bars and NYC gritty/smooth ? ...word. -
? why you acting like a hoe
Not even like you wrong about Cole beings star but what does it matter? Who cares? All them ? you named don't sell like Cole or make better music so being a star means what ?
Only true stars in hip hop are Jay, Em, Dre, Snoop, 50, Wayne, Nicki, and princess boy
And Cole outsells half them -
there's something you don't see a lot in hip hop now a days...
Cole from his 1st record has been constantly dropping great music and good numbers (especially in this era of hip hop)
I respect it... Gonna go cop the album this week -
Who gives a ? if he's "a list" .He's real and being positive. If you like him you like him if you don't you don't.
