For those of you who haven’t heard the news, Drake’s sophomore album did major numbers in it’s first weeks sales. Despite the fact that it didn’t reach the projected 700k mark, ‘Take Care’ beat out Drake’s previous album ‘Thank Me Later’ by nearly 200k copies, toping out at 631,466 units sold stepping into the Billboard Top 200 spot!! Young Money head honcho Weezy F Baby had this to say about his star pupil’s success:
“As far as expectations, we don’t have those around here,” Wayne said. “Expectations are a weakness in the music business because if you expect anything, 10 times out of 10 it’s not gonna happen, so we don’t have expectations around here,” Weezy said in an interview. “
What we do expect is — to work very hard and we expect people to respect our hard work and our effort. … Now as far going to buy the album, as far as going to get 750,000 copies, that’s never a problem with us; that’s never important to us.”
