Weezy set to pull in almost a million copies this week.

Estimates from Lil Wayne's label, Universal/Motown, have put sales of Tha Carter III between 900,000 and 940,000 copies sold, which would make Tha Carter III easily the biggest debut of the year, nearing the massive numbers put up by the more mainstream Kanye West last year with Graduation, which moved 957,000 in its first week. This would top the biggest debut of the year so far which is Mariah Carey's E=MC2, which bowed with 443,000 copies. (MTV/BaseMagazine)

Since when Lil Wayne was able to move big units like that? I'm not hating just wondering when did he become such a big artist? For those Lil Wayne fans who read the blog, leave a comment and tell us how you like the new album.
