The Numbers Game: Future is #1

Future

The #FutureHive has spoken. DS2 is Future‘s first #1 album and his biggest first week ever. Future’s last album, Honest, had features from the likes of Miley Cyrus and Kanye West and it sold 53,000 unit in it’s first week. DS2 is the sequel to a mixtape from 2011 and it’s only feature is from Drake and it sells 147,000 copies. I guess the lesson here to keep doing what got you hot in the first place.
