And Kanye? No. Him & Jay have the same limited promo schedule and technically Jay's hasnt even performed yet is going to sell more than DOUBLE what Kanye did.

How do you know that? It's not even out yet.
Those sales are based on assumptions, nothing else
I still love the album and will probably buy it

He's can get those sales. Call me when he gets the acclaim and recognition.

Thrift Shop is already an ICONIC classic in the same vein as CMM and will be referenced for years to come! Same Love will become the gay anthem of our generation! Macklemore will SWEEP the Grammy's this year!

Future legend of our times. The NEW Eminem!

Jay-Z is the only loser. He cheated his way to a million. Justin did it the old fashioned way.

Justin= 1 million sales without doing free giveaway/corporate schemes. He didn't have to buy his way to 1m.
Robin= WW #1 smash
Kanye= critically acclaimed album
Jay-Z= none of the above

Metacritic only includes albums released since 2000 though.

Good news for Whitney Houston.

Not even a big fan of them, but I think it would be unwise to 100% rule out Macklemore.
Gotta keep an eye on 'em. He may sneak up and snatch a Grammy.

That's highly debatable.

I didn't rule out Macklemore but he still got a lot to prove and obviously Thrift Shop is going to be nominated or win a Grammy. I just wish they'd choose Same Love over Thrift Shop.

According to Meta critic Rated R, Talk that Talk, Loud and GGGB are all better than any Whitney Houston album.

And according to tours, album sales & awards that's irrelevant.

Obviously Thrift Shop will be nominated because it was huge but Same Love deserves much more than that song. I loved Thrift Shop but it got old fast. The album is good but I doubt he'll be able to maintain momentum when time passes.

And he's not the new Eminem. I don't like Eminem that much but calling him the 'new' Eminem is baseless and still far from reality

Justin has critical and commercial success, plus consecutive hits. Payola doesn't make people buy something, I don't think examples are needed.

This is true.

Whitney ablums were full of boring filler with absolutely nothing to offer. There's a reason why no one stans for any of her ablum tracks, like ever.

The black Katy Perry tbh.

Robin has his first smash in his career and he has the last laugh?

Will his album even go #1?

I'm pretty sure there's nobody that's releasing that week.
