Shows how much downloading has changed the industry but I have a feeling his numbers would have been lower anyways. He's been gone for a minute, people taste's have changed, and none of his singles were true radio bangers. The most played one was We Made You. Based on those freestyles I'm looking forward to his future stuff more then I have enjoyed relapse. I could feel him having fun on that Chonkyfire freestyle. I actually think they should use that chorus for a track. "i got you slipping on my swag juice." That shit is on constant rotation.
Bad economy isn't that significant factor for poor album sales. Even in tougher times consumers like to have luxuries. They rather hold on big investments like houses and cars than buying music.What really kills album sales today is Itunes. In the '90s when people heard a song that they liked they would go to a record store and buy the whole album. Today they don' have to do that, they just log on to Itunes, get the song and perhaps preview some of the songs from the album and purchase the ones they liked.
Do these sales charts include digital purchases?
