btw if the Chronic Relit does massive figures, does this mean Wideawake will start dropping albums by Sam Sneed, Lady of Rage, Jewell, Crooked I, Eastwood, Above The Law etc?

yea thats gon sell big, they will release um at sum point anyway cuz they gon make the 19mill back that they paid for deathrow.

Mack 10 isnt gon sell shit cuz he doesnt got any singles on radio or videos on tv. that mirror mirror joint was a bad choice for single, it wont get any radio play.

1. These Amazon's numbers means shit... and the albums are #84 & #88 in the westcoast section not Music in general

2. Dont know where you've seen "G-Files" pre-sells are 28K ???  it's just impossible

3. I would be surprised if both albums sells more than 10K the first week

Ok it's Sales Rank not Pre Sales so i am wrong...

Anyway...Blaqkout is listed before Doggystyle & AEOM does that mean Blaqkout is platinium ? Hell no !

So Amazon's numbers don't mean shit to me

Ya its Amazon's sales rank not actual album sales homie. Amazon and CDUniverse are a good idea how well albums do though.

Mack 10's album isnt ranked at all, and this is on CASH MONEY! Baby & Slim need to start promoting his album more.

They'll be dropping all their material, but probably not in individual albums, except for in the case of Crooked I and maybe Lady of Rage. The rest will come out through compilations and box sets.

Warren G will flop with this album.. you will see. it's really bad for him but he must know what kind of music his fanbase wants from him!!!


Quote from: Soopafly DPGC about his hands
I don't live for the man, but I do study him so I can hope my pimp hands one day become as strong as his. When i first started listening to him, my hands were only strong enough to crush a beetle.  Now that i've studied him for 15 years, my hands are strong enough to crush a dog.
