As we all know, Donnie Trumpet and the Social Experiment released their debut album Surf on iTunes last week, and it looks like the first-week sales stats are in. Surf was downloaded a whopping 618,000 times, which would have been the most of any hip-hop album in 2015 had it not been a free download (trumping Drake, Kendrick, and A$AP Rocky). And to top that figure, over 10 million tracks total from the album were downloaded in the past week. Wowza.
