as hack wilson said, we live in the digital age now.If you count downloads (not just the legal ones) it would already be platinum
if Hey Playa hit the radio waves across the country that shit would have sold; that was a real dope single & it was radio freindly.just terrible promotion & like i've said in other threads about these sales; you have to understand the times, people don't want rap anymore; it's gotta be "swaggaful" & have Drake, Wayne, Kanye or autotune to be successful.only T.I. & Game put out successful rap music & T.I. had to sell out with "Whatever You Like" for sales, so basically Game is the only mainstream dude who hasn't sold out...yet.
