Like i already said on the other thread in Hip-Hop talk : Clipse doing 9k , Nappy Roots 7k , and y'all say G-Unit did bad ? lmao , it's funny man , cuz' beside Three Six Mafia (whose new single features Lil' Wayne right ? what a surprise) no rap group is selling.And "T.O.S." is an album that is street and gutter , except a few tracks (like the new single "Close To Me" , and they should drop a "real" video for this one !) , so by next week being at 200k is pretty good , when it comes to cd sales and nowadays global sales.but fck a sale tho , i just said all this cuz' it's a thread abt sales.and it's only my opinion tho.

I laugh so hard at these G-Unit stans.... when 50 and G-Unit used to sell millions, record sales meant everything to you people. Now that they flopped hard as fuck, all of a sudden record sales don't mean shit? Come on kids, stop making excuses for your heroes. TOS was wack as fuck, I was mad I wasted a blank CD on burning it. It was not street, it was commercial bullshit, people are sick of that... that's why it didn't sell. People are also sick of seeing them beef with everyone from Nas to Rocsi... shits gettin old, they fell off.

IbeWazir · 08-13-2008, 03:44 PM

Look at all them niggaz outsellin' G-Unit, they can't even make it to 200,000 copies! And that album is not street, just the same ol' bullshit over garbage ass beats!

Damn right... real recognize real, Get Rich and Die Tryin was a classic, T.O.S is bullshit except straight outta southside. If the album is good people will buy it if it's garbage then the album won't sell, simple...Fuck these rappers who think that they album will sell beacause their name is this and that high caliber rapper, if they drop half-ass albums of course record sales will be the same...Carter 3 took 3 years to make it that's why it sounds good, T.O.S took 3 months...When Dre drops album it will sell at least 5 million.

G Bird · 08-14-2008, 02:28 AM

^^^ Real talk, only bumpin track on TOS was Straight Outta Southside... the first version was better than the album version though, they took a sample out or something for the album.
