Bad Business for Kudi, bags smallest debut sales week in his solo career for Pulling Beyoncé' Stunt



On Dec. 13th 2013, Beyonce dropped her fifth studio album Beyoncé at nighttime with zero prior promo or warning. The album sold 828,773 copies worldwide in 3 days becoming the fastest selling album in iTunes history. 

On February 26th 2014, Kid Cudi made a decision to pull a Beyonce by dropping his 4th album 'Satellite Flight: The Journey to The Mother Moon' on iTunes without any prior promo and no mainstream support.

Well, the numbers are in...and some artists actually need promo before releasing an album. Based on Billboard magazine, Kid Cudi's album has moved only 87,000 copies first week, which makes it Kudi's smallest debut sales week in his solo career.
