The numbers are in and after the sales projections turned a lot of heads, the 6 God’s done big numbers. If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late has sold a whopping 497,602 copies (541,585 including streaming) since its release on Friday.
Keep in mind that the project was not released on a Tuesday and so these numbers, although titled “first week sales”, come only after 4 days. Impressive. Check out our review of the tape here.
UPDATE: It’s official: the album debuts at #1 on Billboard 200 with final soundscan numbers of 495,000 sold and 535,000 if you include streams tally. Remarkable.
