damn! that fat head nigga took a mean ass L lmao even ross last album sold more than this clown haha flop of the year!!


50 Cent's highly anticipated Before I Self Destruct is estimated to debut with first-week sales of approximately 160,000 units, losing out to singer John Mayer for the number one spot.

According to one-day estimates, 50's fourth solo project may land as far as back No. 4 its opening week.
Columbia's singer/songwriter, full-time Tweeter and tabloid lothario will bow on top next week as his Battle Studies rustles up 275-300k in sales, almost twice as much as his nearest pursuer, according to one-day reports from those hearty few still selling shiny, round discs in their stores instead of flat screen TVs. Blue Note chanteuse Norah Jones' The Fall is the next-highest debut at 150-160k, putting her in a four-way logjam with Aftermath/Interscope rapper 50 Cent's Before I Self-Destruct (whoops, too late), also in its first week, Provident/Reunion Christian act Casting Crowns and Decca's Andrea Bocelli, all in the 140-150k range.

The 150-160k is not the iTunes number.

The album was available exclusively on iTunes for one week (the 9th to the 16th) and did 46k.

The 150-160k is what Hits Daily Double is projecting the album to do before next week's official scans are released. It's not entirely clear though if their projection includes the 46k iTunes sales or not.

its a flop when you spent millions and millions promoting it homie i mean 50 filmed what like 3-4 music videos for this bullshit already? all the push backs and changing release dates you know 50 had a bad feeling about this album people are tired of him i mean that BISD cover has been on every major website begging for you to buy it and for all that shit he's been talking all year? haha karma is a bitch. album is garbage anyways the war angel lp has more replay value.

he wont even go gold in six months and no he aint making back shit doing those numbers let be honest homie maybe if he was on koch but hes on interscope g-unit is dead thats why yayo and banks got dropped this was 50's last album for interscope after this there's a greatest hits album and then 50 is long gone...


"According to reports, 50's first-week 160,000 projected sold copies will also include his iTunes sales.Like an NFL coaching staff making in-game adjustments on the fly, Interscope's Jimmy Iovineand Steve Berman did some last-minute maneuvering around the release of 50 Cent's Before I Self Destruct following worldwide Internet leaks weeks prior to the original street date. In rapid succession, they pushed forward the physical release date from Nov. 23 to Nov. 17 -- the soonest the CD could be manufactured and shipped -- while also working out a one-week exclusive with iTunes for the digital album, to take effect Nov. 10. In return, iTunes agreed to go against its standard policy and "locked" the album, with only the single available a la carte, selling 46k album downloads during the exclusive window. Additionally, the compilers of the charts agreed to include the initial iTunes sales in the total for first week of general release, which is now looking in the 140-150k range. That won't challenge Columbia's John Mayer, now a lock for #1 with 275-300k. (Hits Daily Double)"

i say when the final numbers come out he's at like 120k
