About two years ago, Lil Wayne released Tha Carter IV. The album sold over 900,000 copies in its first week.

Last week Lil Wayne released I Am Not a Human Being II and, according to HitsDailyDouble, sold 217,430 copies.

So why the drop?

Well, Tha Carter and I’m Not A Human Being are two different franchises, with Human Being being more of a side project.

So while 217,000 copies might seem disappointing, it’s not when you compare it to the sales of the first I’m Not A Human Being. That project sold 110,000 in its first week (which was all digital).

217,430 copies was enough to give Wayne the number two spot. So who has the number one spot? It was your boy Justin Timberlake, of course. The 20/20 Experience pushed 317,037 copies in its second week of release.
