Carter IV Projected to Sell 700-850k in First Week



Lil Wayne's new album, Carter IV (available now), is projected to sell between 700,000 and 850,000 copies in the first week. The Carter III did over 1 million in its first week, and Mack Maine is quoted as saying "“With Wayne, I don’t want him to sell a million the first-week, [and] then drop to 100,000 the next week then 50,00 the following week,” Maine explained. “I’d rather sell ten times platinum total.” Mack told XXLmag.com that Wayne also said “[Wayne] actually told us if he don’t do those same numbers again as C3 don’t be mad"

The Young Money President also commented on Wayne's single, "How to Love," saying "'How to Love' is incredible, I think it’s gonna take him to another level. You sit back and ask if it’s possible for him to go somewhere else and now we actually see. ‘How to Love’ surprised me and the response surprised me. I expect the unexpected with him that’s my motto in life, but I didn’t know it was gonna go there."

Think Carter IV will break a million? Let us know!
