    I remember somebody in Thug's camp making a statement about reaching 1 million sales of HiTunes first-week upon release..

    But is this even possible for an artist like Young Thug? Is this even close to a realistic goal? Even Eminem, with his last album, only made it to ~700k first-week (I think).

    What do you think he'd need to do to boost his initial sales to be even close to that high, whenever the h--- he actually releases his proper debut? Features? Singles?

    I honestly feel the same way, I think it was BLB who initially made the '1 million sales' statement... and I immediately thought he was out of his mind. As good as Thug may be, I just can't get myself to believe he'll ever reach those numbers.

    Who in hip hop reaches 1 million these days? Thug would be lucky to do 500,000.. But it should go without saying sales in no way reflect the quality of an album

    He'll probably never do 500,000, but that's not a bad thing. Albums just don't sell like that anymore, unless your name starts with a J, T or A

    Nope. He will never sell a mil in his first week. He gets no radio play and no push for his albums. I think he needs changes in his camp to get better sales. The only artists possible of selling a mil first week in 2016 are pop stars like T Swizzle and Adele. s--- Drake cant break a mil and he is way more globally accepted than Thug.
