Lil Wayne Tha Carter IV Breaks iTunes First Week Album Sales Record In Just Four Days

In just four days, Lil Wayne has broke the iTunes first week album sales record with his Tha Carter IV album. Kanye West and Jay-Z were the previous holders of this record with “Watch The Throne”, but C4 has already sold over 300,000 copies digitally and it hasn’t even been a full week :o

Lil Wayne remains unstoppable with his hotly anticipated, critically-acclaimed new album for Cash Money Records/Universal Republic Records, THA CARTER IV, breaking the iTunes record for first-week U.S. album sales in only four days with over 300,000 units sold. Lil Wayne breaks the record set only two weeks ago by Jay-Z and Kanye West’s “Watch The Throne,” and held by Coldplay before that. – EON

This is great news for Wayne and us Wayniacs, but please do keep supporting the album and purchase C4 if you haven’t already bought it, because I know we all want Weezy to get them 1 million copies of Tha Carter IV sold first week :!:

Birdman Confirms Lil Wayne & Drake Collabo Album Is Coming

Birdman Confirms Lil Wayne & Drake Collabo Album Is Coming

Birdman recently confirmed with XXL that Lil Wayne and Drake will definitely be putting out a collabo album after both of their solo albums have dropped:

“Wayne and I recently talked about the Weezy/Drake collabo album,” Baby told XXLMag.com. “That’s definitely going to get done.”

Birdman promises that Wayne and Drake will offer up a different sound from that of Jay and ‘Ye.

“It’s older versus younger,” Baby said. “I listened to a few songs off Watch The Throne and it feels like an older feel to me. I think with Drake and Wayne, they young. They young cats. You got 23 and 28. Then you got Jay-Z and them, who are older and really on their way out the game. Then you got Wayne and Drake and them, who are still youthful to the game. So, it’s two different types of music all the way across the board.

“But what they’re doing is great,” he added. “I think it’s great for the game, great for the business, great for retail as a whole. I just think when Wayne and Drake get together is going to be something real special also because we more youthful.”

Weezy‘s Tha Carter IV drops on August 29th and Drizzy‘s Take Care drops on October 24th!
