Lil' Wayne Sells 1 Million Albums in 1 Week.


1,005,545 to be in fact.  Weezy's album Tha Carter III went platinum in it's first week, becoming the first artist to crack the Milli barrier in a single week of sales since 50 Cent released The Massacre in 2005.

That's pretty impressive, Weezy (especially considering his joint leaked to the internets a week prior to the release).  I was expecting big numbers (750,000), but selling a million copies in the first week is almost unheard of, especially in this day and age of the internet, bootlegs, and overall shitty music. 


And Dwayne says he couldn't have done it without you, America. Here's his official thank you in his customary native martian speak. Na-Nu, Na-Nu. 

He also mentions something about book drives, or something.
