Although i agree the record company may have had a factor in this, the mainstream was never going to buy into this group, only real die hard lyracist fans of hip hop would even bother listening to this.
Say for example your average teeny bop, 50cent, game, flo-rida fan walks into there local music store and picks up the slaughter house album, They may remember joe budden from pump it up, probably not though. The wont know crooked i, may have heard of Royce through d12 and eminem and they sure as fuck would not have heard of joell ortiz. They put down the album and buy relapse again!!
Well Im hoping this is going to be one of those word of mouth albums that just keeps selling gradual numbers.Extensive touring is a big factor in this and rock the bells was a start and now going on a tour with tech n9ne will only further long term sales.Artists like atmosphere and cormega sell a 100,000 each album but you ask a casual person who they are and theyd scratch their head.Word of mouth and quality of product will sell this album long term.E1 did fuck up though and didnt anticipate the demand.In this world it was a miracle people went out to stores to buy the album,but then its being reported sold out everywhere people are just going to shrug their shoulders and say fuck it.Id say e1 fucked them out of 10,000 in first week sales.All in all though i think if they keep touring this album will do 100k in the long term.

atmosphere was a bad example. a lot of girls i know would love to rock slugs mic no homo
hes an indepedant artist how is that a bad example.I never said anything about sex appeal either.

atmosphere is not like snoop dogg status but I know a LOT of people who bump their shit, including females.

Thats because theyve been around for a long time now and do extensive touring.Slaughterhouse hasnt even been around a year yet and look how much attention theyve gained.If they keep working together and touring together they will be very well known.Its all about word of mouth.And considering this album is getting rave reviews from everywhere and everyone seems to be in love with the album they are well on their way.

i got my copy by putting a blank disc into the burner and burning a mp3 disc with the other tracks.

fuck buying your shit. 
Cool breeze; I'm hopping out of new Beams
My outfit ran me a few G's but none of that will matter if you leave
I used to be an Adam with two Eves and shawtys automatically do me
Excuse me, all that happened before you doesn't matter
I'm a vision of the future climbing the success ladder
Recline, in the mean time, twenty three shine, diamond bling blind as I rewind
