That's some ? you can't make up
Em also said in years to come Encore would be like Illmatic, Em can't seem to make his mind up.
He was joking, he know damn well that album was trash -
Lil WayneWayne was still the hottest rapper at the moment and had some crazy features. 2006 til he got locked up 2010.
Y'all really got Drake over Wayne in 09. Unfathomable -
Rick RossAfter the correctional officer story Ross bounced back hard with Deeper Than Rap. I think this was the album that allowed him to be what he is today.

Relapse was complete trash.
Calling it trash is being modest. That ? was horrible -
Jay ZCorrection
Relapse wasn't THAT bad. It was trash but I was thinking of Recovery. Jesus couldn't save that album. -

so new york state of mind had huge buzz, but the album was getting ? reviews, and it only did 300k its first week, many were surprised at how low the numbers were given the single and the jay z brand.
well guess what happened next week? his album sold 300k again magically, and thats when people started coming out how his own label was buying copies to keep his plat streak alive
the only way an artist tops or ties their first week sales is if they are a none mainstream artist who blows up after there album is released, or there album was released on a shorten weekend (as in only 2 days for the album to sell b4 sales numbers for the week come out)
what jay z did his 2nd week was impossible, NOT TAYLOR SWIFT, ADELE, EMINEM, or any of the other big artists have ever ever pulled this off in recent memory. Jay z album had all the promotion in the world, NY state of mind wasnt a hidden gem, the album just didnt sell well it first week because the full album was leaked and people didnt like it that much.
no artist ever tops there first week sales, now stuff like black friday 1$ album or if they preform at the grammys will give album sales a spike. But you still never top it unless except for the few exception mention above -
Jay ZRun This Town

Jay ZPpl didn't start magically coming out. Ppl thought the release date changed. I remember that ? .

DrakeDrake should win. So Far Gone changed hip hop and honestly is the most celebrated mixtape ever and changed the sound of hip hop and RnB
