Nas is a legend. But he isn't exactly selling like one.
HitsDailyDouble is projecting his 13th album King's Disease will do 35-40k SPS 10-13k in its first week, even after all the promo he got for "dissing" Doja Cat.
That's a substantial dip from his last album, 2018's Nasir which did 77K first week. Although the dip is somewhat mitigated by Nas now being completely independent, whereas Nasir was on Def Jam.
Dead rapper Pop Smoke is projected to be fighting with Taylor Swift for the number one spot on this week's chart.
