^ Good... I would expect it to go gold at least... but it probably won't hit platinum.

I regret even buying that garbage. It wasn't worth my money if you ask me.

Because when hi-profile artists talk about how good they are, and then don't sell crazy amounts, they get accused of 'falling off'.  Dre sold gold, that's respectable for a movie soundtrack.  But his last album sold what, 6 million copies?  

Same with michael jackson, his new album is friekin' double plat, and everybody says it flopped.

Cool.. but I expect MJ to sell more than 2 million copies of his albums... "Invincible" went wood compared to "Thriller", the best-selling album of all time (42 mill. copies sold)...

Peace.

^^ That's what I'm sayin' too, people expect more.  Like, if you got a kid who's retarded, and he finishes a 100 meter relay dead last... you give him a medal.  If you got a kid who's an olympic trainee, and he doesn't come in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd, you yell at him and beat on him a little bit.  Since Mike and Dre are in a league of their own, their criticism equals their praise.

Oh, and I think Thriller pushed over 43 mill recently.  And that's worldwide... Invincible has done 7 mill worldwide 'this time around' .  It's only been out 4 months though, and 4 months into thriller, it hadn't moved 7 million copies... so he's actually, all things considered, outselling thriller right now.

I think people have to understand that the wash isn't a dre album or a dre&snoop album it's a soundtrack and for a soundtrack it's dope.and gold sales 4 a soundtrack is pretty good with very little promotion and one video that snoop wasn't even in
