the real numbers on what dj quik and kurupt really did

[V2DHeart]

I didn't download or buy mainly due to the fact that what singles/street singles came out weren't IMO hot enough for me to even bother about it... Those numbers seem accurate for this effort

[OG Hack Wilson]

10,261 like really what the fuck come on ppl stop fucking d/l. that cd should have dont at least 30,000 you mean to tell me quik and kurupt only have 10,261 susporters

i dont like quik or kurupt.

i did not dl or buy.

hey Baron, who do you listen to for rap?

S.A.S.
Eurogang
Baby Blue
Nutty P
Dizzee Rascal
Scorcher
Sincere

I...I've never heard of any of those things.

THey sound like the name of gay bars or something.

[Teddy Roosevelt]

that's awful, but what did you expect them to do?

i know that nobody in New York even knew this album was dropping lol.

LOL me and a few of my friends in MAINE know about it


so why shouldn't New Yawkers?

I don't think you represent the population of Maine. Most people in this world don't follow West Coast hip hop online like the esteemed members of dubcc. Since they didn't really have money for promo, where else are you going to get your info?

It's actual an solid album especially to bump in your car. I downloaded mine off Amazon and those numbers likely dont count any digital sales..

no west coast rap?/

[V2DHeart]

I really can't believe that this would be a solid album

I'm an old schooler open to progress and experimentation in music, but I like my music sounding like music, not on some futuristic Spaceman shyt

It grew on me after bumping it loud in the car and I still skip the four retarded ass songs..

Let's say they sell 35,000 copies in total.  They make $5 per album.  That's $175,000.  There's two of them, so let's say they split it halfway.  That's $87,500 for each of them.  After taxes it's like $50,000.  For like 11 real tracks, eight good songs.  That's pretty good to me

but you know they only got $2-3 per album.

its an independent release if im not mistaken, they should be gettin more than that

[V2DHeart]

DJ Quik would have earned the majority of it, and Kurupt just get fed the bread crumbs (aka chump change)

[MoneyMack]

This album is great to me....

A few things to take into consideration:

- Independent Release
- Not highly promo'd in toward the East Coast/South
- It's only the first week of sales
- Only the real fans have copped it or even supported it in anyway.

[Dogg Ly Dogg]

Well 10k is ok for an independant release like that when you compares to D-Block on E1 Entertainment which sold 12k with a video on MTV and BET
