Yeah I was concerned when Nasty Nas didn't get his September date and she said she would release at the best time...black friday for sales.

For once pick something off your album that the GP might like, not what you want
Gosh at times I wish she was like Britney and Katy and would actually be TOLD what to do by her team...

SHE HAS A PLAN...whether it works or not it's still her plan. She should go based on GP but eh.
I don't get the bringing up of Katy...she's been coerced a few times but still.
Britney...you really think her team wouldn't want her doing major promo. Its Britney's choice not to promote. A dumb choice but still nonetheless.
I wish Onika had EP rights that Drake has but at the same time I'm proud of the control she does have.

Wait no one is concerned with the fact that Nicki just had one of the most aggressive album campaigns in like forever and shes set to move 155-165K ....
J Cole did north of 300K and he barely promoted he announced his new album without hype less than 2 months ago
|
One ALL OF HER ALBUMs have increased past predictions.
PF had like 325k or something at first
PFRR had 220k
PFRRTRU had like 20kish
TPP 155k...most likely will go up to 180k-200k. For me. with her Album promo campaign THAT still is underwhelming but I don't anticipate it staying the same nor do i buy the stocking issues at Target having the massive impact as I know someone that bought at Target on Monday and I bought at target yesterday and only a few had been taken and it was 11am. We know people go to Itunes, best buy and walmart etc.
that said, the catch 22 is that Jcole has ONLY put out quality songs before the album.
Nicki had 4-5 singles but not all of them were quality and/or hits so there is reservation.
Now if she had 4 smashes that were quality, I couldn't understand her doing 155kish.
No one can say she didn't have enough promo but it's clear where the era ebbed and flowed.
Key times to release June or September...even November would be questionable all things considered.
I think we have hope the numbers will increase AND she'll have longevity.
As I pointed out in one post, the difference between PFRR and now is that
she had 8/9 singles during a period where she was hated and enduring backlash (being tested)
she'll HAVE 8/9 singles where people over time might possibly invest.
I JUST WANT THAT PLATINUM PLAQUE
Her 4th album better be a double disc

I won't give up on it

For those just waking up to the **** storm on my our timeline, the official first week sales projections for Nicki Minaj's new album came in
Jaywan Inc. @JaywanInc · 10m 10 minutes ago
And she's only gonna do 155k and that includes the new Billboard calculation system which now includes streams and downloads.
Jaywan Inc. @JaywanInc · 10m 10 minutes ago
So the reality of the situation is that she really only sold about 69k of physical copies off the shelves and on iTunes sales. #FLOPPED
Jaywan Inc. @JaywanInc · 2h 2 hours ago
What else can you call it when your album sales go from 350,000, second album goes to 225,000, and your last album only sells 155,000?
Jaywan Inc. @JaywanInc · 2h 2 hours ago
The numbers don't lie. Every single album has atleast a 100% Album sales DECREASE. You have to call it what it is...
Jaywan Inc. @JaywanInc · 2h 2 hours ago
Nicki Minaj's new album just sold 220,000 LESS than what her debut album sold. Pretty sure you're supposed to sell more by the 3rd album.
Jaywan Inc. @JaywanInc · 2h 2 hours ago
A FLOP is when the label invests more into your album than they actually recoup back from your album sales.
Jaywan Inc. @JaywanInc · 2h 2 hours ago
A FLOP is when you have a $3 million budget to record and market your album and then when you only generate $2million in revenue back.
Jaywan Inc. @JaywanInc · 44m 44 minutes ago
Here's what the stans dont understand: Sales from singles don't generate that much revenue. Labels only keep 50 cents of the 99 cent sale
Jaywan Inc. @JaywanInc · 44m 44 minutes ago
So, if an artist going double platinum for a single and sells 2 million singles on iTunes, that's only a million dollars generated. Not much
Shiiiit!

But who is this? An insider an industry person or someone that is just PRESSED opPRESSED, dePRESSED, rePRESSED, supPRESSED etc.
He makes some valid points though but still how is Jaywan???
