Did you have trouble reading the first part of that sentence? His album was undershipped, drastically. The vast majority of stores JUST got their copies this week. The numbers are irrelevant right now, so save your emoticon faces for something else.

Are you dumb enough to think I didn't already know that?

 

[finessesosa]

what i dont understand is dudes is giving the

face at the labels. This dude woulda went triple copper anyways and im fine with that. He dont make no money making music and his material aint gon be enjoyable to the masses. I know for DAMN sure Spitta better not be surprised. Talking bout they leaked it early or they undershipped.


Lets just be real here.

I put that face just cuz im dissapointed it only sold that much.  And yes part of it is the labels fault, contrary to what you think Spitta DOES has a decent fan base and would have sold a few more thou if they shipped more.  I know hella people that couldn't even find one copy and then I come on here and see the same thing, so obviously it happened in more than one area...When you have fans all over who can't even go to the store to cop the album then the label aint doin it right.

 

[mr marcus]

he couldve did at least 30k 1st week

Im upset it sold that much too. thats kinda embarassing but we already knew it would happen. There was no way he was going to sell 30k, at least he even broke 10k. The label knew this dude wouldn't even been able to sell over 15-20k even if they DID ship out enough and they woulda took a loss. Yall do remember he only sold like 893 copies on This Aint No Mixtape first week?  Don't be fooled by those followers he got on twitter my dude

.

More than half of them aint going out to cop hard copies.

 

[soversotowel]

Just came in This Evening ........

Purchased Via Amazon On July 13th Because My Effin Best Buy Didn't have any Copies

and while I was at it i figure i'd get Deal Or No Deal as well.

 It's Solid so Far.

 

[i live in texas]

Dudes really expecting Curren$y to do Drake numbers here. lol It's not that serious, we all know he doesn't have a huge fan base. Why act surprised that he sold that much?

 

[lbj23navo]

I knew he wouldn't sell that much.. But who cares about numbers as long as its good music..

 

[animaster5]

Yuku, FTL.

 

[animaster5]

Any body who is trying to go to this show, please email me at [email protected]. I am performing and need to sell my tickets, so please help an #NT artist out! Tix are $20. Get at me y'all.

 

[born tuesday]

Finally broke down and ordered it from Amazon because no store I went to had it in stock (2 Best Buys who had it in the computer but couldn't find it in stock and a sold out FYE). Folks who work in each of the stores told me multiple folks were looking for the CD before I came in as well. They should have shipped some more, possibly 30-35 like someone said before.

 

[liltunechi85]

Just copped mine from Best Buy today after searching for it since release day

 

[doyung9]

I told ya'll. And stop with the "they undershipped his album" stuff. 95% of his fanbase discovered him VIA THE INTERNET, they have iTunes, they could have copped dudes album via the net.

Face it. Dude is never gonna be a major star, no matter HOW MUCH you want it to be. Be happy he got his major label release.

why do you go at curren$y so much?

 

[lyrikill]

His album was undershipped, prolly missed 1000 physicals in N.O. alone...there was like 20 copies in here and he has 700-800 people at his shows now...but thats the labels (Dame Dash's) fault...Def Jam release with no Target or Best Buy???

 

[dead stokc]

 

[NotoriousLEEdope]

Just ordered my copy from Amazon.....got tired of waiting for it to come in stock. $8.99 plus free two-day shipping.

I lowballed and said 20k....i went to the store to kop on my lunch and another cat was in there tryna kop too. They sold out. Did I end up buying it? No. I doubt dude did either cause I ran into him again later that afternoon downtown he said he called places and a bestbuy had them 30mins away...

 

[oneforall]

Wow I live in Finland and i was able to find copy of this album. From what i read here it was much easier.
