I remember from seeing the single release dates in the other posts and the latest one was "Worst Enemy," which still doesn't have a video out yet. It's actually one of my favorite tracks, but all the trap +%##%! that were going to support Radric probably did it by now. I'm hoping the young crowd takes to "Lemonade." If they drop that Keyshia track, dude might mess around and get to about 200,000...

The Worst Enemy video been dropped

Word? Let me go check YouTube for it...

Game and Jeezy will move units (over 500k for sure total).

I would actually agree with dude, Game and Jeezy will also do numbers, I dont know if 500k is a for sure, but it wouldnt surprise me one bit.

where's "50 Cent"????????

DUECEKING is going to manslaughter HARLEMONTHERISE when he comes into this thread

50 Cent has been "Terminated On Sight"

Snoop Dogg's numbers are actually good. He did almost three times as much as The Clipse. big ups to Snoop! 61,000 is alright

.

ok...my fault.. two times as much.

 

[thekingofva]

Boyle the top dog in the industry right now. Time for labels just to stop releasing rap albums. It's a waste of money because their not recouping.

Rap music is getting no push whatsoever from labels anymore

and 50 did 150160K (w/ an extra week in digital sales) and people said his career is over

,

Fixed but dont worry Nay

 

[thestephzone]

Clipse with only 30,000 and have like 4-5 videos before the album even drops? that's bad

 

[jthagreat]

artists better be out there doing shows...

 

[bigmike23]

Did people really think clipse was going to do numbers tho?


And I'm need to read the couple of gucci vs Jezzy threads that was made over the summer to get a good laugh over the number of albums yall thought he wasgoing to do

 

[thestephzone]

don't see how Chris Brown flopped, that's a look for him considering all the negativity towards him.

Word. And I don't care what anyone says. Outside of maybe a handfull of albums hip hop flopped hard this year. (and yes, 50 did too)

How many times i gotta tell you, he been in the game for 10 years

. He DID flop. He supposed to be doing 200k-300k+ out the gate EASY. He struggled even doing that 98K to be exact.He didnt even break 100k. Chris Brownhas a reason for not going how he was supposed to and Gucci just now getting his buzz up. Still damn near outsold Loso easily and he's locked up to notpromote.

I laugh at them, they equate street/hood buzz tomainstream buzz... tho I will say I thought Gucci would do atleast 150K 1st week. Thats what happens when your fanbase is street ----as. This is the equivalentof The Saints going 16-0 and not making it to the Superbowl... only person that had a bigger yr was Drake. Gucci just needs to learn how Jeezy did it... stillattract street audience with a lil drop of mainstream. From a A&R standpoint I actually think dropping the album so close to Xmas was a bad idea especiallywith that album cover.. people [white people] unfamiliar with Gucci can see from his cover [in jumpsuit] what content will be like.. might have been moresuccessful any other time of the year except Xmas. Xmas period is usually successful for softer tone albums.. but hey what do I know.

Jeezy won

Co-Sign

How much did Jeezy do his 1st mainstream album? aint it go platinum?

 

[thestephzone]

^ more people bought albums when Jeezy's 1st debut dropped compared to now so you shouldn't compare.
