Congrats to Juelz and all of you on the team for your contribution to making this album launch a success!
It was a tough fight, since music sales are down at retail stores over 10% since this same time last year (especially for urban music).
But despite the challenges, What The Game's Been Missing sold BIG... 141,461 units in it's first week of release. This makes it the #1 Hip-Hop/Rap debut album of the week (beating Chamillionaire, Nelly and Big Boi of Outkast).
Juelz's album is also the #2 overall album debut for the week and the #2 album in the United States on the R&B/Hip-Hop chart, according to Billboard.
Now we move into Phase 2, and we still gotta keep hustling to ensure platinum status next year...Let's go!!!
