Nas’ Untitled Sells 187k Coming In #1

nass

Nas’ album sold 187,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan, becoming the rapper’s fifth No. 1 here. Nas’ prior album, 2006’s “Hip-Hop Is Dead,” also debuted at No. 1 but sold 354,000 over Christmas week.

Wasn’t sure how good the album would do with the videos not getting too much play on television but Nas has a fan base that makes sure to buy his latest work.

  2. Superman_Hip Hop Fan Says:

    Now he aint goin say hip hop is dead no more since the fans bought his album lol

    If ur music is of good quality, people will notice and sales will reflect that accordingly.

    I liked da album.

  3. Today I Was Arrested By Rick Ross! Says:

    *Waits for G-Unit Stans/Nas Haters to call this a flop*

  4. Da Business Says:

    Not to happy with the numbers, but I co-sign with the realest.

  5. Ahijah Says:

    Pleased for Nas he deserves it best album of 08 for me along with Third World

  6. Undercovermc Says:

    In before the G-Unit stans with their bullshit.

    Good albums generally don’t sell well, only hot albums do. That’s the way it’s always been, so it’s whatever. Untitled is still a dope album.

  7. CaliLove Says:

    The album will go gold for sure. Nas is gonna be a consistant gold seller. Way better then that Carter 3 bullshit that people dare call a classic. Classic moments? yes. Classic album… hell to the naw! But Nas will always have a core group of people that will supprt his work. He wont stop people. Esco for Life!

  8. Mr. I.M. Says:

  11. MEstro Says:

    Hip Hop is Dead did 340,000 this joint did 187,000????i think i qualifies as a FLOP the hip hop is dead single wasn’t being played on 106 or TRL so YEAH people this album is a FLOP is #1 album by default the album is still great but it is still a FLOP people.

    T.O.S a garbage CD with a terrible single did 110,000 so stop frontin!

  12. Gee Says:

    It’s to be expected. The media doesn’t understand Nas, so they say why would any Black man name his cd nigger or choose that degrading picture for his album cover. But anyone who has listened to his records know he a deep brother whose words uplift the community. I give him much props and all the support i can give

    ________________________________________________________

    Cuz Niggas Gotta Get This Thread Count Up..
    The Unit And Wayne Sales Threads Did Over 150+ Comments..This Joint Moving Slow..Why Them Nas Fans AT??

    Did Yall Buy This Record?

  29. 2cents Says:

    outside the GOAT comment I co-sign Numero Uno…

  30. MEstro Says:

    there are obviously more Lil Wayne fans/dickriders,and 50 fans/haters than true nas fans, after Nastradamus 99 Esco wasn’t that hot,Illmatic/It Was Written bandwagon people left long time ago.

    If you look at it Nas has only had 3 great albums(minus “Untitled”) Illmatic,It Was Written,Stillmatic every other album was so-so

  31. ocram Says:

    its clear that this album didn’t cross over. with the whole nigger contraversy, it scared off alot of loyal fans that just couldn’t support it. the white masses aka cross over audience clearly didn’t support it. that being said, could’ve-would’ve-should’ve. if he had released hero as the lead single without all of the contraversy, it would’ve sold alot more (i honestly believe). like he said on the album (he always puts himself in the sacrificial position). i’m sure glad i bought it (classic)PEACE!!!

  32. CaliLove Says:

    WHAT DAVID BANNER DO

    I wanna know the answer to that question to…

  33. Bluecreme Says:

    THIS ALBUM IS TRULY A HISTORIC ALBUM. QUALITY VERSUS QUANTITY, HE MAY NOT HAVE SOLD 2 MILLION THE FIRST WEEK, BUT WHAT THIS ALBUM HAS TO OFFER IS PRICELESS.

  34. jad Says:

    congrants to nas. na sspeaks the truth he is deep and his album one of the best

  35. you Says:

    He’s hot. BTW, my friend saw his pro file on a site with many nice photos. It seems called ‘Ri ch k iss. c om’. Let me check it for you guys.

  36. 2cents Says:

    I like the comment ‘bluecreme’!

    Nas #1… Don’t be mad
    P.s. if this came out the same week as G-unit guess what… they still wouldn’t have sold more…lmao!

  37. Blacklash Says:

    Good Numbers..He Should Hit Gold In No Time.

  38. Beaky Says:

    Wtf REALTALKNY Nas has a steady fan base that will support his album??? GOIN ON THAT COMMENT THEN PILES HAS A BIGGER FAN BASE THAN NAS COZ HE MOVED 200K ON FIRST WEEK ALBUM SALES lol… I like nas but those numbers smh

  39. ricky Says:

    y’all hypocrites..this was an exceptional album, nobody is disputing that but as far as sales go, this is a flop..all this controversy and ‘owning the word’ wat wat. its like he was being the mouthpiece of the black community,telling us where we are and ushering us forward n yet nobody gave a f@ck..we judge everybody by their standards..HHID sold 340,000. “untitled” halfed it. does it mean nas fanbase is dwindling? quote me on this “its gon b world war 3 for nas hittn gold with this album”

  40. WRECK Says:
