sucks donkey balls for game
Cause I don't care where I belong no more
What we share or not I will ignore
And I won't waste my time fitting in
Cause I don't think contrast is a sin
No, it's not a sin

This must be wrong. Ain't no way 18 artists gonna sell more than 100 K this week. Normally about 5 or 6 artists are selling that much.

That did strike me, but it's a pretty reliable site that posted this (hitsdailydouble).

thats what i thought but it sounds official... and those saying that it sucks for game... thats not too bad at all... people would kill for those as second week numbers... he doing lloyd banks first week numbers on his second... i wouldnt say thats too bad at all... he is already gold with this week..

The numbers overall are up because it is the holiday season. The majority of artists that drop in November and December do good numbers.

Well I think The Game would have liked to stay withen 200K. None the less, he has already done gold numbers, and will probably go platinum.

well lloyd banks is supposed to be a big artist thats the only reason im comparing it.... if a "big" artist like banks did those numbers his first week.... comes to show something that game is selling really well...

but we will see at the end of the day it really doesnt matter because he dropped heat on this cd... which is all that matters... the only reason i want to see him sell well is so he can continue to drop big production cds in the future...

Yeah he needs to put that single out ASAP. Its funny that Strip Club is finally starting to hit the billgboard charts and FINALLY getting showed on 106 and Park and TRL, but I think its too late. I would just put out Wouldnt Get Far before he falls to deep
