is this Yelawolf-album worth the time?

i liked that Lil Jon-featured single/video. similar type of music on the album?
i dont really like his rappin style i guess, but maybe im sleepin.  that single is on rotation in my ipod rite now tho

Listen to trunk muzik instead, it's much better. The album is really good for about six songs, then all of a sudden every song has a poppy hook sung by females, like recovery. Yela still kills it, but the hooks are really bad

Jaydc hit it spot on about the LP. Shit hooks for the most part, a few good songs but the second half is dire. Trunk Musik was dope.

Trunk Muzik 0-60 sold 75.000 till this nov, so for the 1st week 41k not too bad.

lol what the hell is 75.000? Where did you find that number?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trunk_Muzik_0-60

sorry if ain't right.

lmao wikipedia links aren't reliable, especially when the number there isn't a real number. If it was real it would be sourced.

I was wrong, I thought he would do Mac Miller numbers, those numbers succ for shady, I thought that cypha would help him. But y'all are right about those hooks.I think they turned some em fans off,thinking he's trying to be like em yell

damn. LOL. wiz khalifa sold more than this kid. y'all know em ain't gonna let this boy get as big as him.

Yeah.. I'm sure that's exactly what Eminem's plan was...

Step 1:  Invest into forming your own record label

Step 2:  Sign and promote artists

Step 3:  Hope that they fail out of fear they will get bigger than you

He could of sold close to another 100,000 copies if they had a decent lead, catchy, mainstream single to go with. They just didn't.

"Let's Roll" might catch on once the video drops, and I can see that "Made In The USA" joint being annoyingly stuck on radio

This purely has to do with him not having a single on the radio. I've never heard Yela once on the radio, and I live in LA where they don't only play the top 40 shit on the radio.

Big Sean, Wale, J.Cole all had HUGE singles, so to compare Yela to them is absolutely pointless. Even Mac Miller has tracks on the radio, despite being unsigned.

Obviously, Interscope dropped the ball a bit and likely thought just cause he was signed to Shady and was the first solo artist to be released on the label in about 5 years (I'm not counting 50 as he's Aftermath), that he would sell straight off net buzz.

Big mistake on not pushing radio singles.

Since when has Mac miller been unsigned? He's on the same label as wiz khalifa.

Okay, I meant he's not signed to a major. Rostrum is some tiny label in Pittsburgh.
