Great! 8)

So you're comparing a well established artist, a heavyweight in the game to a debutant?

^Where are you reading that?

I'm saying if Wayne or Jay can shit out a million records & everybody's response to it is, "Ahh, who cares? The music is trash. It doesn't deserve those numbers. Album sales don't mean anything." Then it applies to all, albums sales don't mean anything & have no correlation to the music being made.

wow that's crazy, way beyond what I expected him to sell then again I wasn't sure exactly what #s he would push, but with that "Work Out" buzz I knew he would have at least done 50K

dude deserves it and I'm buying my copy today or tomorrow

Its not rocket science. When we don't care about the artist, numbers don't matter. But we want the artists we like to do well. I'm sure this applies to everyone.

"Work Out"

get out more in the real world, hit up a club, shit even turn on MTV in the morning at least once or the radio, and if all else fails I'm sure you have at least 1 or 2 girls on Facebook who maybe have quoted the song on their statuses

Jokes on you for still watching MTV. Is it really that big? Never heard anyone even mention J Cole.

yeah I watch MTV early mornings sometimes if shorty has it turned on, it's what I wake up to lol... and I've caught the "Work Out" video at least a couple times in the last few weeks... the song ain't monster like say "Otis" or "Niggas In Paris" but it's big enough to make these album sales believable
