Grammy winning rapper Kendrick Lamar sent fans into a frenzy last week when he dropped his fourth album unannounced. Released nearly a year to the date of 2015’s acclaimed ‘To Pimp A Butterfly,’ the new project – which features appearances from Bilal, SZA, Cee Lo Green, and many more – went head to head with the highly anticipated new release from 2 Chainz, among others.
Needless to say, Lamar, charging into his next era off quite the high delivered from his much-talked about Grammy performance, wins, and controversial losses, left all of his competition in the dust.
Find out how much everyone’s new favorite rapper is predicted to move this week with his new album ‘untitled unmastered’:
1st week prediction: 175-185k (SPS)
Pure sales: 140k-150k
Chart position: #1
Check in to That Grape Juice later for the full chart check once the Billboard 200 refreshes.

All that impact yet formation is still chillen on the bubbling under 100 chart ?✌
Yawn where’s cierror?? Still playing unfilled parking lots kii!!
Ciaras out here slaying the worls with her fashion and beauty.. C7 is coming and will be epic… Enough about Ci how is the Queen of Bleaching Beyoncé doing? Still using race issue to sale a tour I see ??
Screaming at the struggling “bi’racial” maid! No sis the world already knows how The Carters are doing. So we wanna know how that irrelevant man you stan for is doing.
World*
Irrelevant yet you’re mentioning her… Your fav is fraud who would be serving fish plates if it wasn’t for her scandalous father buying her a career,Grammys, and a husband.
Boring with this kame tired shade. The GP and critics have spoken The Queen has TALENT and IMPACT. Something Mrs Man has yet to give and offer. Which is why the GP threw her to the side after her 4 year career lmao! We see why you mad!
Lmfao
But your fav is INSPIRED by CIARA lets be REAL. kiii
Lmfaooo the reach! Where is SHE inspired exactly? Dancing… No! Singing… defiantly not LMFAO! Touring…. KII MRS NEVER HAS! They’re to completely different set if entertainers. You tried with that one tho!
Partition video was a BLATANT copy of Ciara Love,S**,and Magic video you FOOOL. Oh and dont get me started w the short blonde bob Bey stole from Ci in late 2013.
Congrats daddy ??
Congratulations, Sir. Lamar! 😉
.
It’s nice to see REAL BLACK RAPPERS topping the charts!
You all wanna call this a success but shaded Rih for similar numbers after giving away 1 MILLION free copies. Come on now. Stay consistent.
Death! Gurrrl stop Kendrick is a RAPPER who has no #1 single. Rihanna tours the world has several #1 hits debuts with #460 and than has first week sales of 124k lmfao!! Jay-Z done gave away 1 million albums and still debuted with 500k in sales.
The hive doesn’t want any other black females to succeed thats why they came for rihs numbers
Grab this bih @QueenMolly a Coffen because she must be searching for death wish! Coming for the hive will definitely leave your ass dragged! You and every other SIMPLE confused and non-factual lame comes for Bey with these “Corny” ass shades and simple repetitive reads that will forever be bobbed and weaved! Sit back and let the real players win like usual!
I know right this is not alot and it won’t go platinum they coming for rih numbers when rih outsell these so call great musician all rih albums are over million and,drake sell more so what is your haters on here comparing s***
Because you all were bragging about how Rihanna was gonna snatch wigs when Anti was released
I don’t think anyone realizes that formation was not released as a single. Just because an artist releases music or a new song does not make it a single that’s not an excuse for the beehive it’s just the reality and you guys are annoying with this formation stuff which clearly is not a single it’s not even available for purchase nor was it released to radio because it’s not a single Geesh when her first single comes out if it flops then you guys can drag just like you all thought bow down and grown woman was a single they were just songs for fans and create buzz around what’s to come you guys are really hateful and sick on this site that’s why i stopped commenting
The hive and their excuses are what is tired!!! Why can’t formation chart based off streams sis? Didnt an aaliyah song debut at #1 based on radio play alone? So please tell me why formation cant chart based on streams?
@King Gemini They’re desperate for The Queens downfall. They’re literally grasping at straws. Exhibit A: The struggling “bi-racial” maid using how songs charted in the early 2000s to how songs chart today. The self drag us real in these streets huntea ????????
Yet you cant explain. if aaliyah can do it on radio play why cant Bey do it with streams? Hmmm
Because it was only released on tidal ?
Last I checked the video was on youtube and getting radio spins… Whats the next excuse?
This bitxh is desperate for attention she’s to retarded to realise Formation is an unlisted video let me say that again for this dumbass hoee UNLISTED VIDEO meaning the views won’t count. Kiii so a song that wasn’t even sent to radio is getting radio play!! I CANNOT AT MY QUEENS IMPACT YAAASSS!!!
Well good biittch it can stay unlisted, uncharted or whatever ?
His sales were higher than Rihanna’s. This is an album full of scraps. So these sales are great. If the physical albums were included his sales would have been a lot greater. He’s an amazing artist.
Idk what formation… a soundtrack for a tour… has to do with Kendrick. Congrats to him moving the masses. Hopefully he replaces drake, im sick of him. And lol at Everyone and their uncle outselling Rihscedule as per usual.
And everyone is charting and scoring top 10 hits like nothing except Bleachyonce of course.
Oh honey stop fooling yourself. You ain’t fooling anyone here. At the end of the day we all know you go running back ti Mrs Man ??????
These guys are not putting music out for the grown people any more. Allot of us wan t to go. To the store… Or don’t even Check iTunes to see new music.. It’s getting played everybody ain’t Bey. Bey even somewhat let us know that she had an album out
Congratulations Man!
Men run the industry. Men have the highest selling album, single, & most #1s & highest grossing tours. But that is NO EXCUSE for Why rih cant outsell even the most basic of them. Chris now Kendrick lamar & future all outselling rihfund I CANT…
I have Selena in my avi yet yall still mentioning Cici hmm.
Adele first day sales 1.3 million >>> #460.
Yas Kendrick showing the “Blacn Madonna” whats up 160k—->124k ???? What kind of international hit singing icon ????
An album full of B-Sides outselling Rihanna…hahahaha!!!
The albums really good! I like it, It has a tone of quality to it, cant say that much about these other microwavable rap stars out today..
Your flop fave should really take notes.
Kiii you stan for an old ugly housewife sis… Bye
Lol similar numbers to Rih who gave away 1 MILLION free copies beforehand but you’re congratulating and stabbing him while shading her. Stay consistent please…
But the pest were singing a different song when the 3 songs Rihanna dropped last year. Now not every song that an artist release is not a single because their fave lil song couldn’t chart. Even though all 3 of Rihanna songs did last year. But they were all flops. Ok. Lol
hows is he antisucces tour going sis? are those downgraded venues sold out yet??
Awesome
I hope he debuts with at least 300,000+ copies sold with streaming included. I’m sure he’ll go gold before the month is over. I’m all here for this black excellence, dominance and success in the music industry right now. It’s such a blessing for our artists to be able to be taken seriously, recognized, and rewarded for their conscious contributions towards preserving OUR GENRES OF MUSIC, since OUR PEOPLE developed and pioneered them into what they’ve developed/transformed into now.
Congrats! But I’ll be more impressed if he slayed other countries as well. He’s local, Kanye’s Local, Jay Z too and probably even Drake (look at UK charts). Beyoncé is probably the only black artist (she does R&B) that slay worldwide.
