Thank the lord! I can barely tolerate the music world as is, and if LP came behind Trey Songz I would have flipped shit. Music has become nothing but poppy hits and it's destroying the world of creative music. Hip hop's dead? Rock's dead! It gets shit respect and appreciation compared to 10+ years ago. Its sad cause I'm sick of seeing bands kick so much ass on their albums and live and get shit from the music world.

so they done it AGAIN. CONGRATS LP!!!

Hmm... I've figured it out!

 

If they release an album once every 3 years, the build up and excitement gets the fans pumped, we rush out to buy the new music, request multiple radio and Music TV shows to play it and LP get a number 1 debut.

 

THAT'S WHY THEY TAKE SO LONG! THEY DO IT ON PURPOSE!

 

But seriously, congrats LP. Well deserved.

YEEEEEEEEEEESSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[maxstar]

Nice ! Don't stop LP

[hi_c21]

Hell yes. Congrats to LP. They deserve it. Curious to see how they match up against maroon puke this week. And what happens when WftE hits radio...

[leftshoe18]

Congrats to LP.

 

Though I've never seen the big deal about chart positions.

It's so that we can shove it up the haters

[MONDREUS240]

What now bitches!?!?

[lerkid]

o Heck yea xD

But what if Trey Songz debuted at number one and one of his fans decided to bash you for liking Linkiin Park? Would you be unable to defend yourself because LP took the number 2 spot? And at the same time: would you feel like Trey Songz is better if one of his fans pulled out the fact that his album went #1?

 

It seems like a pretty weak stance to say that an album is better based on sales.

Popularity is a bitch

 

Certainly not all albums can be deemed good based on sales. But a band that can make an album that sells millions of copies must be doing something right.

That was a tight race, but congratulations to LP for taking the number one spot.

[felipeintheend]

congrats lp

[LPjahova808]

I know a lot of people say chartings don't matter as long as the music is good, and its definitely true, but I can't help but be happy for LP

[lp_faint43]

ATS is number 1 in New Zealand aswell

[maik_gianino]

Excelent, LP is the best, now and ever...

[JZLP-Benningstrong]

that's pretty good

congratulations boys

 

quick question

who has sold more records this year?

[jessiexo]

Probably Eminem... 741k is a big number, especially considering the amount of downloading that goes on now.

Thank God all is right in the world. Trey Songz makes the most cliche r and b shit for women. LP put so much effort into making meaningful music, glad they got rewarded with the #1 spot on the billboards. Although 250,000 k first week sales is a bummer for LP standards, it's good to see they still got the #1 spot. Congrats LP!
