    Well I mean Dre released it through iTunes only, with a free stream through Apple Music.

    300k and it's not even in stores, no promo and only being sold/streamed by Apple online. Sounds good to me

    This album wasn't put out to do numbers. Or it would have been released in stores and had at least one single/video. I say he did good.
