The Carter 3 Goes Platinum!!!

We all knew it was coming... It hasn't even been a week since Lil Wayne's long awaited album Tha Carter 3dropped in stores last Tuesday, however it has already hit the mark of a million copies sold.

On it’s first day alone, Tha Carter 3’s sales stood at 423,00 copies sold, and as of June 13th, the album had sold roughly 630,000 copies.

According to the Nielsen SoundScan’s Building Charts, Tha Carter 3, which was released on June 10th, was set to reach it’s million-copies-sold peak by last evening, which is when Soundscan closes its trackings.

Weezy has a lot more to boast about, as he still sits at the number one spot on the singles charts with his single, Lollipop .
