I'm really getting tired of seeing these stereotypical and degrading comments about "the hood." Some of y'all act as if pop fans are better when in fact if they were so much better and bought more albums she would of sold 500k first week. Her biggest market that bought her first album in the whole United States was NEW YORK, and I can bet most of those NY sales were out of the "hood" which everyone claims doesn't support. People support good music when they hear it. There is bootlegging everywhere, why are we acting like NY is the only place that does it.
It's getting out of hand now, and it's really disrespectful. That's like me saying all pop fans are fickle people who have no idea of what good music is. That's a stereotype, and it's not right to say.
Even if it does apply to most.
Have you seen how they've been behaving toward fun. and Gotye?

It didn't,Pink Friday reached number one with sales of 45k,in Feb 2011.
Sis, I said it didn't debut at #1, because it didn't.
It worked its' way up to #1.
And I think she'll do that again with this album in a way.
It'll already be #1, but it'll push a lot of sales over time.
