    He didn't sell 350k in a day those are the projections for the whole week according to hitadailydouble. Physicals are in some stores already but they aren't in a lot of them so your right about that. I do think that was balanced out a little by the impulse buys on iTunes cause that was the only place to get it.

    Still think he'll do 500k+ not drake numbers though, which I consider 600k+

    There's a far margin between the two when it comes to influencing the culture with their music, one is innovating and inspiring with new sounds and the other isn't. Cole album is cool but nothing about it is challenging or pushing music in any direction, just like his career he's played it safe when it comes to making music. Kendrick did a 360 when it comes to his sound on his sophomore album and this s--- is amazing. Not only is it going to inspire artists to challenge themselves more, it's going to get fans who aren't adapt to this type of sound in the trap era to listen.

    With SPS Cole is going platinum before Kenny and Drake :biz:

    With pure physicals though it's possible. In all honesty, I don't really care who goes platinum first I just hope Cole gets that plat certification :wow5:

    Good points. But keep in mind Nas never truly pushed musical boundaries at this level either his whole career. Neither did Jay. Outkast were the ones that were pushing genre boundaries and they are considered greats but the GOAT rapper argument usually consist of Jay and Nas more than Andre, even though Andre is definitely up there with them imo. My point is there are different ways to be great. Cole might not be Jay or Nas level but just like them he doesn't have to ridiculously push genre boundaries to make great music. FHD is great in its own right too.

    I realized something as i was scrolling through the songs in my phone: every cole project has "intro" as the first song :laff: Except his worst project born sinner. Cole really isnt that creative as an artist. :idk:

    Just finished watching the latest Cole interview. He does a fine job in articulating his thoughts. BUT. Why does this nigha gesticulate so much? Lol

    Cole the GOAT. #loveyourz
