361,120 music lovers took to retailers to pick up J. Cole‘s latest body of work in the last week, pushing him to the top of the ‘Billboard 200′ this week.
Named ‘2014 Forest Hills Drive‘, the album marks the rapper’s third consecutive #1 album, beating first week digits nabbed by his first two albums thanks to a unique promotional roll out which is likely to keep him in the Top 5 by the time next week’s charts roll by.
Read more on his latest win here.
Quiet killer!
Flopnika Garbaj couldn’t! LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! The Pink Slip is a FLOP!
Meanwhile Sicki Icki can’t even push 200k 🙁
Who is that woman in your avi? *shivers*
cheryl if she didn’t have fame
A fabulous b****, that’s who! 😆 Feel free to forward any further questions, comments or concerns to my ÅŠS!
J. Cole came through and EXPOSED Flopnika the stink pusssy ho! No promo and he still bodied Flopnika’s Pink Slip. This is a READDDDDDDDDDDD!
who else is doing it?
Jermaine is Winning.
He a quiet killer but that’s all he probably will sell .. His last did good first week but I don’t think went gold or platinum
His last album did go gold b**** and the one before that did too!
Both of his albums did 700,000+. Get your facts right and Work Out and Power Trip both went multi-platinum.
Slay Cole! Yass!! Xo
He’s gonna get a big drop second week. Boring ass album
Him dropping 60% would still out him in the range of a certain other rapper who released this week with 5 singles and a year worth of promo.
Oop!
Dragggg that Shitprint Album!
Never boring, your womanish ass just can’t relate to real music.
Congrats J cole!
The stink pusssy ho in your avi and her Pink Slip could never! Bwahahahahahahaha! LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
Yeah, you better be humble…
There was no unique roll out. He barely had a single out. He posted a video announcing it and that was it. The end. 361k. People will buy your music if they believe in it. We aren’t here for gimmicks anymore. I won’t drag a certain other rapper in this post. But Ki.
No promo.
no hype.
no gimmicks or publicity stunts.
and he wom.
Males in hip hop tend to have decent first week sales. But then they fall off after. Well done to him though.
Impressive. He has a fan base based just on his music.
My n****!!! Sold more album in his first week than all them pop girls (except Bey and Tay)
Bey toured and everything before her album, that’s promo
Taylor swifts album drops to 2′ but sees an increase in sales and sells another 278,950, which is a 21 percent increase:) Quite amazing!!!
So there’s a high chance of 89 out selling Pinkprint? I bet there’s a high chane of Cole’s album out selling Pink.
Yup. Nicki won’t be number 1 next week. But there’s a good chance taylor swift will be heading back to that number 1 place:D
I would DIE!
This is after she PUSHED BACK to make sure she gets the #1 spot. I will SCREAM!!!!!!!!!! LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!! Karma has come for that b****!
real talent and real music will always win in the end and he did it without ANY PROMO!! congrats to Jermaine
No Single, no Gimmicks. Just Music. From an artist to his fans. Slay a lil bit boo!
That’s how you do it Cole I will dieeee if he tops it again next week, yesss daddy Cole can beat it down anyday!!!
With a fraction of the promo of Flop Print. I love how the rag dolls went from “It’s gonna sell 300K” to “It’s a female rap album, these are good numbers” and “stores aren’t putting them on shelves”. lol
excuses are limitless. D’Angelo is doing 100k with no physical release.
Slayin with NO PROMO! Only bosses can pull this s*** off
How can one that was on every award show all year flop so bad? lol Hooker performed 3 times on the vma,s, hosted the UK version. lol
Pink p**** will still flop after 2 years of promo.
The b**** would have sold 23 copies without all the promo. LMAO!!!!!!!!! Poor Flopnika. She works so hard and still gets slayed by people with ZERO promo. That’s a REEEEEEEEEAD!
i would like to adress some people here ive been on this here blog for years and i took some time off for personal reasons but i came back after i done saw how ran over the comments were and i knew i hada come back and since i was done given permission to come back i done did.im 18 and i was know for my epic drags here which i came back to contine.congrats to cole yall know i stan for him too.
Girl bye go back to rehab
go back into hiding nobody cares about your crazy non factor ass
ohhh this week is going to be messy for the barbz, I will always check for nicki but maybe she will take this as a wake up call to really ground her self and create a body of work and not just ass metaphors, I’m really underwhelmed with this album, absolutely no stand out tracks. Pink Friday was full of original, amazing songs, but this? just fillers
Amazing! Another artist proving that you can still push albums with just the music and the fans.
Right? Make great albums and your fans will support. What’s a hit anymore?
Ask Rihanna that
Yea hooker when I say what’s a hit anymore I mean putting out trash just so it can chart (Anaconda, Booty etc). Rihanna have HUGE international hits to urban hits. She can check each box with her albums. She never throw out trash, because she doesn’t have a problem charting with her songs… hint 7/11.
@Mark
But Beyonces proven time and time again that she doesn’t need a top 10 to have a successful album boo…hint the reason why “Beyonce” is 2X platinum and “Unapologetic” is not.
Lol @Metzo
Listen Markeisha, Beyonce can scan double platinum without ANY hit. Rihanna can barely sell 1M with a #1 WW hit. Diamonds was such a huge song but still couldn’t help Coconut seller to see multi-platinum stat.
Beyonce was a gimmick. I wish the Behive would let it go…. That album was so forgettable…. The hype definitely made the album.
Cole brought it back for the rap heads….. hell yea
Hell be gold by week 3
LMAO NICKI IS A BOTTOM THE BARRELL ASS B****!!! U MEAN TO TELL ME COLE SOLD 360K WITHOUT AN OUNCE OF PROMOTION WHILE SHITCKI DONE BEEN EVERYWHERE AND WON’T CROSS 180K? SHE IS DONE!!!
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! The stink pusssy ho Flopnika is DA DUN DUN!
Wow. Just wow!
WOW over your fav that has to show her body to the world or to sell music.
Wow to the fact that she only did it in like 1 of 17 videos…
B*******! ballerina’s, jazz dancers, contemporary dancers…..hell, you’ve seen people at the beach wearing less. You’ll be fine.
you seem salty? the queen got you mad?
Thats how you do it.. you dont need to get naked to sell music.. if beyonce and co are the best why do they need to get naked just to sell music.
yess Bey and Nicki both selling a$$ this era
While KeriMyBags is struggling to find another era…
Where? In Blow, Drunk in Love, Partition, and Rocket?
“Beyonce” is a 16 track album. If only 1/4 of the songs are about s** then that makes absolutely no sense.
Stay in your ONE HIT WONDER lane.
Speaking of non-Gimmick, D’Angelo’s first album in 14 years that he dropped out of nowhere is set to do about 100k next week. This is a really good look for soul music and Black Music in General. 96 score on metacritics As well. Not my cup of tea but Slayy
when will beyonce just sell music and not s**.
People enjoy quality music. It’s like over exposure is doing the complete opposite for a lot of popular artists.. These numbers are awesome. Also, his last two albums did indeed go gold !!
Slay J! I love the album! I’m also digging DAngelos album! He is before my time, but I purchased out of curiosity and I love it! Nicki doesn’t interest me. I’m not surprised she flopped. #Garbage
Let’s not act like Beyonce’s impact isn’t shining through all of these artists recent release tactics tho.
Beyonce gave everybody the courage to take a risk and just release the music without single and heavy promo.
At the end of the day, your fans will buy your album no matter what, if it’s a great album and that they want to buy it. #GameChanger
it’s true, for the next 5 years dropping surprise albums will be the trend, she really is teaching them
Fraudyonce is not the first to drop surprise album do you research well, that woman has never set any trend other than nudity.
The Hive delusional as usual hahaha
And Keri still irrelevant as usual….
still more talented than overrated beyonce
Hahaha Tucan Sam…oops I mean Kerri belongs behind the scenes because she is NOT more vocally talented than Beyonce #FACTS.COM
Come on! Less talk…more work.
You should be bagging my groceries right now.
rosie remember how i used to done like u as a good person we was close but then u stabbed me in the back for molly,lb and future ciara,after all this done be time i aint never got over it.where is lb and truth.im go have to remind em that im back but i feel sorry for em considering i dragged them so much i left with their scalps.pickaboo im back and im coming for ya truth amd mark u keip bottom member i dragged u too
take your meds darling, it’s all going to be okay x
@Kerri My Bags…oops I Mean Kerri”Qween”
Where? In Blow, Drunk in Love, Partition, and Rocket?
“Beyonce” is a 16 track album. If only 1/4 of the songs are about s** then that makes absolutely no sense.
Stay in your ONE HIT WONDER lane.
And showing her naked a$$ at the Grammys
Is Keri even invited to the Grammys anymore??? Does she have to be a “plus one” or something???
@Beysus
No, Kerri was at the Grammy’s. She was a seat filler in the nose bleeds…thats why you didnt notice her.
Keri isnt an attention who#re like your fave so she doesnt care about the spotlight
No boo, you have it backwards…nobody cares about HER.
Wasn’t Kunty attention whoring when she tried to diss Beyonce on a track? And getting naked and acting like a stripper in the way you love me video?
@Yeah I Said It
Oh, and lets not forget about the time Keri made a song about having a one night stand with Fistopher…she’s not an attention w**** though * rolls eyes *
The Hive got offended by Keri’s Turnin me on verse, she said nothing about your overrated fav, a hit dog will HOLLER!
And you name one video compared to your fave singing about getting nutted on in a limousine, showing her naked a$$ in a thong at the Grammys and this entire era good try tho
@Kunty Gurl bye. Don’t play that game.
And Partition still does not have any restrictions on it like your faves whorish video. Where was her husband in that? Oh she hasn’t got one.
@Kerri Qween
CLEAN UP NEEDED ON AISLE 5.
Get back to work b****!
Are we talking about the same Keri Hilson who recorded the profane “The Way You Love Me” and shot an equally sleazy video for it? I don’t hate Keri at all; I actually sort-of like her in small dosages, but in no way, shape or form do any of her 8 fans have any moral high ground to critique someone else for being too explicit after she created a red-light district image of herself in an attempt to sell that last album of hers that didn’t work.
nene hun u is so desperate for me to adress u bum
This is super duper embarrassing for Nicki. She’s had one of the biggest promo campaigns this year and the GP still didn’t respect her enough to purchase her album. She pushed the album back for those holiday sales and still failed. I saw her true predictions were 150-165k. How is she selling 50k more than someone who hasn’t dropped an album in 15 years? Lol!!! Cole is a beast and truly deserves every last sale. He created a true body of work…something Onika claimed that she was doing until Iggy made her change up her formula. Ha. True talent always prevails. Take notes gimmicks!
Onika is super duper talented tho! She’s the most skilled female rapper out rn. I just think that she lacks that one “Classic” hit. She has a dope flow but is not using it the right way with her overly sexual vulgar lyrics.
So basically, since Beyonce’s release tactic, 5 other artists have followed her footsteps and only 2 have surfaced triumphant, J.Cole and D’Angelo. And both are amazing albums.
G.Unit flopped so hard. It was such a kiii 😀
When did g unit drop an album? And why? Lol
the kii is thinkin ur opinion be valid
keri qween. where is that done be curry tho oh thats right you go need gps to find her #drake voice
who are you B****
Some people never change.
http://music-mix.ew.com/2014/12/15/beyonce-jay-z-sued-by-mitsou/
And some never lose their forehead.
SCREAMING!!!! TYPICAL
@Beysus
No, Kerri was at the Grammy’s. She was a seat filler in the nose bleeds…thats why you didnt notice her.
Ahh! Of course she was!! How could I forget?!! :”’)
Tricki Garbagh is Struggling to get up there & barely making it!! D’Angelo & J.Cole better WerQ!!
The barbz went into hiding like csquad after ‘Ciara’ flopped lmao birds of a feather flop together.
Hunny her album was #2 and sold more than both J. Lo and Mariah Carey. You tried tho.
When Baby said that Lil Wayne is just an artist and has no business skills.
http://i.imgur.com/ai41q89.gif
Damn!”Beyonce” started a chain reaction #SurpriseAlbums#2013#2014
This also means Rihanna better at least 400k if J cole can do this. Otherwise I’ll scream.
Worry about YOUR fave, we straight.
My faves is fine. There’s nothing to worry about thanks.
Rihanna is not gonna be a scapegoat because Ickiy flopping. Cause out of all these tricks, Rih is the only one sells well international.
Like I said. 400k or I’ll scream. The truth is ALL the girls sell internationally. Rihannas international sales don’t set pulses running compared to people like Beyonce, Taylor etc. She doesn’t even have an album that’s sold over 5 million internationally. So save that excuse when bantering with real local artists stans like Cheryl and Rita.
How much you wanna bet that Rihanna’s going to take the Beyonce route with this album? I got five on it! LOL
She doesn’t have to. Bey took that route because she can’t get a hit to go the traditional way. #sip
I don’t think she’ll do a Beyonce, it’s already not a surprise because she’s spilled tea on it already. But I’m expecting big sales with all this high and mighty talk her fans be doing. With this stretch of ‘anticipation’ , releasing snippet after snippet and building up her hype she bet not end up being underwhelming like Nicki!
But she’s a trend hopper…why wouldn’t she hop onto this one?
RIHANNA IS MY GIRL SHE WILL BE OK. NEXT YEAR WILL MAKE 10 YEARS IN THE GAME SO I KNOW THEY HAVE SOMETHING BIG PLANNED. NICKI CAME AND WENT JUST LIKE LADY GAGA HER CAREER IS DONE…FINISHED….FINITO KII
Trendsetter. Just like how your fave grabs her writers, producers and her styles. #TheEnd
Oh, you mean producers and writers who OTHER PEOPLE IN THE GAME have used before Rihanna as well… Like DJ Mustard right????
Mark111. No. Beyonce released that way because she wanted to send a message and it worked. Something powerful beyond hits, that your fave cannot do, And she has 4 chart topping albums the traditional way whilst Ruhanna struggled for 6 years it get 1. So bye.
Why? Her album will go on to sell 3.5 or more worldwide like her last two albums regardless
She doesn’t need front loaded sales, her sales are steady y’all stay salty over RIH
Yeah, steady…because she releases every year. 7 albums in 8 years with only 30 million in sales is nothing to boast about boo
No ones salty but you because you know damn well it will be embarrassing. You would be the first to rush in a post and shade one of the other girls for it so please take a seat. 400k or I’ll scream. Stop with the excuses.
And I’m glad you can see into the future Kunty Peasant.
keri qween,keri hasnt been hot since preety girl flop and even then she was faded.home girl be dusting her plastic certified records or the double trash bag ones
BUM B**** ONLY HAS ONE PLATINUM ALBUM WHILE KIM HAS 3 LMAO SEEEETHE!!!!
WHERE ARE THE BARBZ SO I CAN DRAG THEM ACCORDINGLY
lol
They are hiding in 2012 with PFRR holding on to the good ole days when Nicki could break 200K.
KII SIS I AM SO READY TO GIVE THEM A GOOD LASHING. ALL THIS MUTHER F****** S*** THEY BEEN TALKING AND SHE CAN’T EVEN OUTSELL ARIANA GRANDE GET THE F*** OUT OF HERE KII BUM ASS B****
Why does Rih need to take the “Beyonce ” route, her album sells 3.5 million consistently and Bey hasn’t sold much more than that with all her hype and promo hahahaha
but what has keri sold she only has 1 gold album and it wasn’t even released internationally lmaooooooo
She need to go have some babies
She needs to sit down, she fake
Them other chicks ain’t even worth my time to talk about
Been had dollars boy
Go on get your money up!
What promo??? B****, it was SURPRISE RELEASE LOL?
And when was “Unapologetic” released again? Because I could have sworn that it debuted a year…or two before “Beyonce” did.
Sit down. Rihanna had triple the promo and #1s and still couldn’t outdo Beyonce who sold off her name alone for the most part.
“Beyonce” had no release, no lead single, made no talk show appearances pertaining to her album or anything…so what hype and promo are they speaking of?
Her album had no more “hype” surrounding it than J.Cole’s did.
So someone please explain because I dont follow…
Onika is a VERY talented woman, how do you think she rose to notoriety, her flow and delivery is unmatched by any female emcee in the music business and yes that includes grudge face, soo her multi coloured weave was inspired by Kim boo hoo, cry me a river, Kim wasn’t the first to wear a pink wig, but Nicki has seriously fallen off and she her relationship with the masses is dying, if she carefully selects her features with doing only 1-3 a year the public will crave more, if she brings her one of a kind delivery like from her mixtape days to her songs she would slay, an lastly if she actually told a real story through her lyrics that could relate to people of all walks of life she would again slay, but I actually feel like throwing up with the arrogance she has been feeding us since Roman Reloaded, just ass punch lines and money talking, it’s making me sick, I know onika has more range than just that, it’s poison for the mind hearing all those ass references, until onika does all these things, she will slip into the credibility realms of pitbull, iggy & flo rida
HERES A BARB! B**** SHUT YOUR CRYING ASS UP AND MEET ME AT THE CREMATORIUM! THEY ARE CREMATING WHATS LEFT OF NICKIS CAREER KII.
Lmao
mark face it hun u been lippin all tha tym but ya be hatin on people callin out ya fav,spots aint change much lol
Yasss J.Cole!!!!!!! 110% talent honey. I’ve got album and its amazing. I love every song. ’03’ Adolescence’ and ‘No Role modelz’ really speak to me. If only Thirsty Thiefoncé could make ORIGINAL, non-cliché good music, Rihanna, JT and CB do. And where’s the news about the Camels bring sued for Drunk in Flops? The Camels must own or have a share in this site.
Non-cliche music and Rihanna are an oxymoron
@Kerri Qween
CLEAN UP NEEDED ON AISLE 5.
Get back to work b****!
Lmao. Poor mark
LOL @ Keri Qween. She’s just making herself an easy target for all kinds of illiterate stans i.e. the punaniHives. Keep ’em seethed. #NoLifeHavingHoēs
ok i need to leave now but
And the barbz were trying to shade Ciara lol
I see I got Navy members salty with my comment. Don’t come in here and throw shade at Nicki for the same thing your fave isn’t guaranteed to do. #NotHereForDoubleStandards
PREACH. The Marines…oops I mean the Navy, are really cocky for a stan base who’s fave hasnt even released her own new material yet.
Tyler the bottom is obsessed with me or many (s)he wants to be top commentator. Biitch staaaaaahhp… You are the top commentator. You keep saying the same shiit over and over again. *Yawns* Congratulations!
What type of Hooked On Phonix response was that?
You WERE the Top Commenter LAST WEEK. So that s*** sounds stupid lmao.
Cudos to you though boo, for always managing to earn the title for “Donkey Of the Day”. You are really bright hahaha
I find it so funny how I Stand For “Talent” is accusing other people of having no lives.
B****, you werent saying that before when you were one of the Top Commenters, your damn self, for 3 weeks straight. I cant! LOL
Lol What???? *Sigh* Yeah…. (s)he’s obsessed me. God bless that bitter bottom.
*with
And you are obsessed with Beyonce and the hive so looks like you met your match in Tyler eh?
Lol What??? Im just out here Laughing my asss off. You think I take this these things seriously? Girl, get a life. I bet the writers, e.g. Sam, laugh at our comments. You’re pathetic.
Were you laughing when you were trolling??? Is it that serious? Do you want to be the Top Commenter? Are you that mad boo?
Was THREE WHOLE WEEKS not enough!??
Dead at the irony. Your lame comments are a joke. Always the first to be presst as a panini over the Hive and wonder why they respond. You’ve commented on more posts than I have so the only laughing stock is you.
Oh what? You caught a sudden case of amnesia? Well let me refresh your memory. YOU WERE THE TOP COMMENTER FOR THREE WEEKS IN A ROW. Don’t front! You are officially the real MVP *Round of Applause*
Everybody! Lets throw a few ones for I Stand For The Talentless
A complete contradiction
That’s great for him! Loyal fans with actions over words.
the lil k** bucket stans still cant say anything until lil k** bucket can book a stage that’s not a washed up black award show
Wooow. I think (s)he doesn’t know what amnesia means. I love how Tyler the bottom is seeking public support. LMAO!!! Keep ’em coming. It’s #TotalTopTuesday for the gays. *sigh*
AMAZING! So, your an identity thief, you have Alzheimers… AND you’re homophobic? Wow! what an outstanding and usual combination for someone in AARP.
The pest can’t say anything to me with 7/11 being a thing.
7/11 went top 20. I read somewhere you implying it didn’t chart.
I’m implying that the song is horrible and the PEST are the main ones calling other’s top hits generic and cheap. Oh the hypocritical irony.
No Im not talking about this comment dumbass.
Hang it up, flat screen.
Your overrated fav still sold 3M the SELF DRAG and congrats jcole! This is great for a quality album with no gimmicks slay!
Congrats!!! Great album!!
I like him. He’s genuine he doesn’t need any PR stunts.
This b**** and her 3672356899 features and gimmicks still couldn’t get a #1 hit and Grammy but her stan base love to hype her up like she on beypnce status And what is this so called talent you speak of? stay in your lane hos
fff at the dragging carrying over to this post. And it’s stans really think it still has a chance at 200K because of Target.
OMG that is amazing, go J.Cole. Silent but deadly.
The dragging of the barbs in this post though, but where are they?
Hiding. You seen those rag dolls on twitter this week? Saying some 350K, I even seen 700K, 700k! lol. PP is this year’s ArtFlop.
Congrats to J.Cole
SAD WEEK FOR THE BARFS 🙁
I’m sorry, but how the heck is he able to pull these numbers? It’s so weird how he can sell so much the first week and then NONE of his albums scrape gold! Quick pumper indeed!
Cole World sold 200K the first week and 660K total. Born sinner sold 297K the first week and 600K total and dropped the same day as Yesus. Cole has a core fanbase, great albums and is growing. So you are sorry.
Actually, I’m not sorry, but you tried it too hard!Comprehension and reading are key! You clearly must’ve missed the post below with the correction of “platinum” instead of “gold”. You thought you were slick picking this one on purpose to comment on with your wikipedia receipts, but you failed. What you need to do is worry about that mess of a biopic clinging onto your fave’s legacy. You’re dismissed!
I’m sorry, but how the heck is he able to pull these numbers? It’s so weird how he can sell so much the first week and then NONE of his albums scrape platinum! Quick pumper indeed!
WOW, congrats to him!!! To think these sales are higher than his previous album which had a hit single and he was more out there in terms of promo. Goes to show when you’re all about providing but quality music while staying humble, you’ll come out with a loyal fanbase. Love the album and I wish him all the best.
