Dogg Chit first week sales

[Tanjential]

it'll do about 20-30, 000

sad, because if they dropped a video 2 t.v. in advance of the albums release (like they did on CIA) they would of sold more then CIA, because Vibe is more radio friendly then cali iz active <<--single, not the album)

i think they are equally commercial tracks, perhaps CIA being a bit more commercial

I can't find Dogg Chit anywhere.  It's all sold out.  Was it released in limited numbers?

[Detox Is A Myth!!!]

I'm going to say 17,000.  Even if they sell 80,000 total, let's see, how much do they make per album sold?  I'll go conservative and say like $6/album.  80,000 x $6 = $480,000.  Divide that evenly among the two of them = $240,000.  After taxes that's like $150,000.  Damn, I don't want to hear about bootlegs hurting their profit margins and shit.  I wish I made that much off like 3 weeks of work.

Am I right?

Word. That sounds about right. I can already see where this thread is going with most people. If it sells 100-200k that is success on a indie like Koch. And they did that with Cali Iz Active. And it is a grip of money. I am not expecting it to go gold, that is not even realistic for alot of artists on majors. I just would like to see the album be promoted well, maybe 1 or 2 more singles/videos and for it to do well, whatever the numbers are. Hell, I want that for alot of albums at this point. The industry is down alot right now.

I wonder how much Ice Cube made on Indy since he went Gold

WC said in that interview he did with Nima that Cube is getting 9 dollars a record.

[Al Bundy]

That's roughly 4.5 million before taxes

Yeah I did a rough guess since I didn't know exactly how much he went over gold (which is 500k shipped)

[J$crILLa]
