Two places below him is Adele‘s ‘21‘ with 117, 054 copies sold within the last week and in at #29 is Jason Derulo‘s ‘Future History‘ which debuted with 13,000 units.

I told you white peo.., I mean, mainstream audience can’t focus on two black artists at a time.
Poor Jason.
Congrats to J Cole! His Album is Great!
Yall LOVE Some Derulo D***….
13,000 is a FLOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (So it should be reported as such)
Congrats to him!I hope that I’m going to like his 2nd album more 😎
Btw, I am SOOO glad that quality rap had a small victory this week.J Cole sold more in his 1st week than Big Sean has since June with 3 singles
And I really don’t know what to say about Jason.Ouch!Well, he should definetely try acting…
LOL I guess Jason DeruNo is already History in the chart. 😆
over 100,000 aint s***
YAS! So proud of J.Cole 😀
Yessssss for JCole.
We all knew Ms Derulo was gonna flop…. really we said it over and over.
13k was higher than expected for her
YESSSSSSS!!!
CONGRATS MY BROTHER – I WOULD ADVISE THOSE WHO DON’T HAVE IT TO BUY IT. QUICK.
IT’S BRILLIANT – AND IN MY OPINION, IS THE BEST RAP ALBUM I’VE HEARD SINCE KANYE’S “MY BEAUTIFUL DARK TWISTED FANTASY”…
(AND I DID BUY WATCH THE THRONE & THA CARTER 5…IT JUST GOES TO SHOW HOW WEAK RAPPERS BECOME WHEN THEY’RE OVER-COMMERCIALISED)
derulo only sold 13,000???? Damn worse than ciara with 37,000 copies but it still charted higher so whatever.
Decent.
Adele’s sales are monstrous.
I like how NO BeYAWNce stan dare mention her sales anymore. 15k sold this week. FIFTEEN THOUSAND. Barely sold 800k after 3 months. Didn’t yal BEYSIC stans say BIONCI was gonna sell 2 million by the end of the year and 6 million WW? Cash your welfare checks, sign off the public library internet and get to buying your 6th copy of 4lop.
yes reppin North Caroline hard.. Fayetteville stand up okay lol
Cole World, Real Cole World!!!!
Congrats to J.Cole, Been on him since the warm up and Friday Night lights mixtape. He has dedicated fans!!!!!!!
🙂
>>>>>>>THIS ALSO MAKES J.COLE THE 10TH BLACK PERSON TO HAVE A NUMBER ONE ALBUM ON THE BB200 CHART THIS YEAR & THE 5TH RAPPER IN 6 WEEKS TO DO SO<<<<<<>> LMAO!!!
haha yall be goin off on Ms Derulo lol his album is actually really gud tho but im happy 4 j. cole well deserved
@JER
You are a b****, but hell you made me laugh
—————–
OK, how the f*** is Adele able to sell more than 100k NOW? That album was released in January.
I heard somebody mention Taylor Swift is releasing something new this year.. If it is a brand new album, that Adele reign must let up! We all saw how that b**** Taylor dragged everybody down and whipped their asses week after week in the US October-December 2010 (Nicki Minaj, Kanye West, Michael Jackson’s label, Rihanna, Ciara[HAHAHA], Keri Hilson… well, everybody). Hell, her numbers were f****** impressive. Sold like 3 or 4 million in 3-4 months… Adele is at 3,4 million after 9 months. Anyway, it’s gonna be competitive and frankly, the only one who can stand a chance against Adele States-wise, is Taylor Swift I think
NIKKI SALES>>>>>J.COLE SALES
Congrats J. Cole but this b**** Adele sales aren’t letting up. Damn!
DEAAAAAAAAAD at Flopson Derulo’s album sales lmfaoooooooo I cannot
13,000 units??? His career is already history never mind the future smh
Congrats to J Cole though 🙂
COLE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
COLE WORLD!!
COLE WORLD!!
Ummmmmm?
I don’t give a s*** .

@TALK THAT S***
————–
Who cares??? Taylors music is pure SHITE as is her singing voice(especially live)
Have you heard her sing the National Anthem…GOOD GOD! It was HORRENDOUS
😕
It still RATTLES my brain as to WHY shes popular. She’s just a GIMMICK for teenage listeners..much like Justin Beaver always singing about LOVE. She is a FAD…just like OBESEdele.
Not Shabby & Of Course He Couldnt Out Sale FLOP FRIDAY Because That B**** Used Many Gimmicks To Hype That S*** Up ! ie. Fake Beef With Kim
Ummm who cares….NEXT !
@Kavion
LOL You just missed @ICON
Damn, 13.000?
“Don’t Wanna Go Home” did alright on the charts and “It Girl” is currently blowing up
I wasn’t expecting him to sell alot of albums but not THAT low
Jason flopping aside
Congrats to J.Cole
@THE GREAT LACEFRONCE RETURNS.
Well, apparently 1 million people across the US cared for her in a week last year……… She’s a bit boring yes, but you gotta give it to her for keeping her clothes on while also being exposed to pressure (you know, s** sells and that’s something Lady Gaga and Kesha know – who both seem to be meaner versions of Swift herself)
@ jer u cant get beyonce outta yah mind its okay she is known to hve that effect since u dnt like her very much i find it interesting u would be the first to mention her name in a j cole post can u answer dat ?
13 000???? is this a joke???
wow with no hits, congrats! Adele is still doing it, NICE!
CHECK ME OUT @ http://yesyourgay.b*******.com/
@TALK THAT S***
Do you disagree that Taylor’s voice is PURE SHITE??????? Her voice is one of the WORST singing voices that the GREAT LACEFRONCE has ever heard 😕
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_ogPknbdvA
2:01 – 2:06 was EXTREMELY off key
What a JOKE!
& Who cares about selling 1 million in the first week when your music is pure SHITE???(So did NSYNC )
Hitsdailydouble.com is not official, BILLBOARD.COM is official. They don’t officially put out their numbers that they get from Neilsen Soundscan until Wednesdays, more than likely J Cole will do a few thousand more sales. Sales doesn’t end until midnight.
THE GREAT LACEFRONCE RETURNS.
Her voice is really weak and I can see why people hate it… But I just cannot allow myself throwing insults at her. She seems so innocent, don’t want to make her cry… Haha. You might think I’m weird but whatever. Taylor’s not the most talented singer out there, but so aren’t neither many other successful singers out there. At least Taylor is not shoved down our throats in contrast to some other b****** that cannot catch a break (excluding KWEEN RIRI, I love that’s she’s reigning the scene over and over, though she could use a break soon too)
Congrats J Cole 🙂 He deserves it.
Now Jason….lmao! That’s hilarious. It’s sad though. What he has been out for 2 years and people are already forgetting about him and he is selling 13,000 first week? LMAOOOO! Either people still don’t know who he is or they don’t care. Sad. I would say well atleast he makes good music because when your sales are low atleast your talent backs you up but he doesn’t have a whole lot of that either…not enough that sticks out anyway. Whatca say? Jason Defuckno flopped? Guess it’s time for him to go home…
*sips tea*
@THE GREAT LACEFRONCE RETURNS.
Shut the *uck up. All *uckin artists have off performances. For someone who wasn’t a fan and went to Taylor’s concert with my nieces, the b*itch is legit one of a kind as an entertainer and her voice was on point. Much better than some seasoned pros I’ve seen.
When your fave can go on a stadium tour, sell over 5.5. mil albums in less than a yr and have 55000 ppl sellout a stadium TWICE just to see their ass sing LIVE, then you can talk.
Till then take a seat to the left.
@TALK THAT S***
Taylor won’t be releasing new material. Her new album will be out in 2012. However, she will be releasing a cd/dvd of Speak Now in November. So we shall see.
@TALK THAT S***
*live cd/dvd*
yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
both my faves are still winning….j cole and adele…j cole being my fav rapper and adele being my fav singer………STAY MAD
who is buyin dele’s albums?? dayum that much after seven months of release? dayum she is pushin more sales than some ppl push in 1st week. adele is winning. who mad that my faves are at the top????
hahahahahahaha at the jason FLOPrulo jokes….i never liked him…he is average, generic rnb, poor man’s chris brown..nothing much
i hate how he recycles beat after beat when there are many that can be signed and come up with creative somethings new. he even recycled toto africa and his music is annoyin.
some of my fav quotes
“13, 000 for Jason ???
I told you white peo.., I mean, mainstream audience can’t focus on two black artists at a time.
Poor Jason.”
“LOL I guess Jason DeruNo is already History in the chart. ” lol at the allusion to the name of his album. the album itself had a stupid title.
not a hater. i just love creativity
Congrats to J Cole!! I knew he was coming in at No. 1 but I could have sworn that his sales were gonna be higher than that! I thought early estimates were at aroiuond 250k-270k? Oh well, a No. 1 is a No. 1! I’m happy for him.
As for Jason….honestly when I heard how low they were gonna be my heart sank a lil bit for him. I couldn’t even laugh that’s how bad I felt. I know I talk a lot of s*** about him (cause he sucks) but as much as I don’t like his music he seems to be really nice and he does work hard so I can’t laugh at his failure. For any artist that works realy hard and their albums flops this it’s just sad. I’ll go easy on him from now on. *crosses fingers behind back*
I guess maybe now he can focus on acting like he said he would. *cough*
Adele is still shitting on the entire industry I see…..

Congrats J Cole He deserves it.

—————————————————————–
Lol! It is sad isn’t it! I felt bad for him, I couldn’t even laugh when I found out but the jokes on twitter had me weak. They were relentless. SMH. *chuckles*
I guess now all the FOOLS who had the aduacity to say Jason was coming for CB or was any threat to CB (or any other r&b singer for that matter) can laugh shut the hell up. It’s official now. Jason is officially NO competition. *files nails*
@Va Stand Up
Lol. I feel a little bad for laughing but sometimes I feel like being bitchy lol. Like no one really deserves to flop like this but after all those times the ignorant fools had the NERVE to say he was coming for CB’s spot and it’s no secret 2 years ago the media tried to make him the next Chris…so I just HAVE to laugh because I feel like I was right…like he has no importance in the industry and can be easily forgotten and whoever told me otherwise in the past 2 years and tried to come for my fave…HAHAHAHA!! It’s really not a personal thing towards Jason though lol. Even though his music doesn’t really do it for me…it’s catchy but blah.
*scans at comments
Congrates to J cole its nice to see a good rapper froma small town doin it big 🙂
….As for Jason 🙁
As probably Jasons biggest fan on this site i pity the people taking pleasure at his failures , this is only his second album …hell i know of one pop princess (Amoungst other artist) who had a couple albums bomb before they came into their own and found success . Jason likewise will either take this news and go back to the drawing board and REALLY take this as a lesson and find something worthwhile in his music next album or he’ll quit only time will tell if he was ever really built for this buisness…overall im still a fan he’s talented and sales dont decide someone’s level of talent
Sam is such a shady b******. Congrats to all…. even Jason????? smh
derulo only sold 13,000???? Damn worse than ciara with 37,000 copies but it still charted higher so whatever.
______________________________________________
This is y album positions and #1 albums don’t really matter….Congrats J. Cole!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i see ThatFLOP juice deleting peoples coments. F****** FASCISTS
Who in hell did this research? Drake’s debut was 447,000 and he debuted @ number 1..so what do you mean since Nikki Minaj ? You mean Drake?….bad…bad..bad journalism…No research. Anyways I love J.cole like a fat kid loves cake so happy for him! #coleworld
They are talking about recent hiphop albums, Drake’s first album came out a while ago. Jason Derulo is cool, but he has no presence. It’s like a regular person just dancing and singing. He had no real promo. If he has two flop albums then his label will be put in a certain situation. It certainly doesn’t help him.
The comments in this section are disgusting and a sad indication of how vile people have become. I am not Jason Derulo’s biggest fan, but to come in here and make fun of and revel in what has to be a devastating outcome for him is truly sickening.
Keep your head up Jason. 4get all these demon spawn that live for negativity.
Woooooah
13,000 for jason I did not expect that at all
How did don’t wanna go home do in The Hot 100? because it smashed in Europe. But ahh it don’t matter all about the long run.
Nicki minaj still struggling to sell 2million so lets keep that cute.
Great job for j cole!!
what annoys be bout jason is that he recycles beats too much…yes others do too…but then he sounds like a chris brown clone with nothin unique of his own. nothin so far makes him unique. to stay in the game, u gotta give ppl that one thing they know they find in u only.
and in at #29 is Jason Derulo’s ‘Future History‘ which debuted with 13,000 units.
Congratulations to all.
Well Done to J. Cole
Put alot of peoples doubts to rest with solid sales.
Dont like some tracks but he definatley has some really good ones also.
he will now have new friends from everywhere ……. i smell someone wanting him
J Cole is a product of hype. Nothing more. Nothing Less. His sophomore album sales won’t be anything like this.
Congrats to Cole….the album was very good.
