Congrats are in order for Rocnation’s #1 draft pick J. Cole because according to Soundscan, the young MC’s major label debut ‘Cole World: A Sideline Story’ sold approximately 217,825 units its first week out…officially securing the #1 spot among the charts.

Upon learning of the news, young Jermaine, took to his Twitter page to address the supporters (and non believers).

So many people to stunt on, fighting the urge to be spiteful. This moment is too important for that. Just want to say THANK YOU.

Thanks to yall, we shook the game up. No chart topping single, just 2 years of hard work, great music and real ass fans. #1 album. Thanks to every fan that held me down, every friend, every blog, magazine, tv, radio station, dj’s and pd’s, I feel like we ALL won

Congrats!!
