The Game’s L.A.X. Sells 238k Records In It’s First Week

Slipknot’s “All Hope Is Gone” barely wins out over the Game’s “LAX” in the race for No. 1 on The Billboard 200 this week. The Roadrunner set moved 239,516 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan, only 1,134 more than the rapper’s Geffen album at 238,382.

“The Documentary,” sold 586k the first week while the, “Doctor’s Advocate,” sold 368k. As we all know record sales have fallen across the board and 220k is a very successful debut. T.O.S. only managed 102k records sold for the first week on sale.

n die hard Game fans said it will outsell C3.
Anyway, it outsold T.O.S by a nice margin so Game should be proud of crushing his former crew lol.

lol look at nigel makin his excuses for the game pushin 220k first week lol.. Tos only sold blah blah blah lol gunit a group album not a solo.. So the comparison is poor… If u compare the sales of tos compared to other hiphop albums released this year then tos is at the tippy lol..
Your comparison therefore is weak, Lax sales comparisons should be made based on solo releases…

I agree with u on the album it wasnt all that. As far as realtalk trying to compare l.a.x to t.o.s I believe t.o.s would of done better if all that g-unit and buck shit wouldnt have gotten in the way. So if they want to compare L.A.X numbers they should compare there numbers to CURTISSSSSSSSSSSSS.

its funny how when G-unit sells 102k or when banks moved 140k first week when dont hear shit about “oh the sells have been going down”..soon as another nigga drop below expectations logic sets in for niggas lol…Game went from 5mill to 1mill to probably just gold on this one but people will ignore that..but when 50 went Gold in his first week selling over 600copies it was a flop? smh lol…then he goes onto sell what 1.2-1.3 on “Curtis” people say its a flop…but Game aint flop when he went from 5 million to 1 millon to gold?..smh..damn shame at the hate 50 gets lol

Umm where did the 220k come from when it clearly states he sold 238k which is a big difference….and TOS is a bullshet azz group album…nuff said about group full of p*ssies.

I’m not a g-unit fan but…Why do Game and other idiots compare game sales to g-unit? Compare game to fif and g-unit to back wall street… Oh! Damn! Black wall street never had a album and game has never had a strong movement to make a star off his own imprint. Fif for all the shit people talk about him made Game and Buck stars. Dre and Cash money didn’t!

220k sucks for his standards just as Tos sold 102k for their standards no excuse in that but its so funny that the game gets an logic explanation but Tos gets it flopped hard lol give me a break, imo i liked Tos more then Lax but lax is tough cuz game is solo but that nigger talks to much about 64 dre eminem g-unit and dre.
