Tha Blue Carpet Treatment - marketability

[Noname]

Snoop always sells good. And this is a solid album. It has some really catchy singles. Some good Dre beats. So i expect him to go at least platinum.

Snoop also always has a hit single, tho (except with "Tha Doggfather").  I'll admit he should still sell Gold minimum, likely Plat, but he ain't gonna get much better than that.

ill hope he will go multi platinum. But it al comes down to promotion. I hope he gets the proper support. Snoop deserves it, hes a OG in the game.

The hit single from Paid Tha Cost To Be Da Bo$$ "Beautiful" came out so damn late, when he already was quite platinum. and I think the hit-single from tha last meal was "Lay Low"? R&G had the luck with "Drop It Like It's Hot" lol... But "That's That" is a hit-single for real....

Snoop Dogg would have a bigger impact if he wasnt in every songs and everybody's album. In my opinion, if you are a big  and respected artist , you have to check who you are working with, and if you plan of releasing an album that will solidify your career, stay away from the mic for a bit so people can expect something Great from you

Nah, look at Bun B, he was the feature-artist of the year last year.

[King Tech Quadafi]

he should go plat...but anything more wont happen

r + g went almost double cuz he had sttrrrrong ass singles

[c-dogg]

  Do Sales really matter? When R+G came out everybody was compaining how pop snoop went. Now that hes goin back to his gangsta roots, folk r still finding something to complain about. I should all be about the music, who cares how much he sells. I can understand how important sales are to new, fresh rappers like the game but snoops been around for 14 years, hes already dealt with the pitfalls of success. I just hope he comes with decent music.

[Quadruple OG]

no more than 150k the first week for snoop

[WC Iz Active]

this album is really shitty overall

I can't stand like 15 of the 21 tracks, so many wack songs

I liked 8 tracks, the rest were putrid so I agree w/ you.

[Sikotic™]

Snoop will do well because he's Snoop (kinda like how Cube pushed decent units because he's Cube).

This album isn't gonna attract any teenyboppers, only his die-hard groupies who can't deny that this album is weak will buy it.....too bad for him, I'm not one of them.

So ya'll ain't goin to cop it? I will, just to support the West.

I myself like about 10 tracks from it. If he would have made the cd shorter it would have been a great cd.

Yeah, that's a good point.  There's a difference between over-saturating the market with your own shit (like 50 Cent does with his label's albums, his movie, his shoe line, video game, books, etc.) and teasing the public by doing guest appearances while they're waiting for your album to drop.  Snoop's been doing that successfully for 5 years now, so has Bun B, so has Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, Luda, etc.  I don't fault Snoop for sticking to the script on that...he drops an album every 2 years (less if you count side projects like Tha Eastsidaz or 213) and he does lots of guest appearances on other people's shit in the meantime to keep his name out there.  That's a sound business plan.

On the other hand, Snoop usually does have a successful single or two (or a hot-to-death one, like "Drop It Like It's Hot"), and that's what always pushes his albums to Platinum status consistently.  Unfortunately, while "That's That Shit" is pretty good and there's a couple other bangers on the album (even if it's mediocre overall), I don't really think there's any "Beautiful"s or "Drop It Like It's Hot"s on there.
