^maybe around the world (maybe) but they ain't touchin 6 digits in USA. Sadly, around the world I bet they push 50K

they would def push more than 50 overseas. they still buy physcial records in Europe, and Cypress Hill got more fans outside US - as a matter of fact, i'd say Cypress got one of the STRONGEST followings in hiphop - there's not a white skateboard, rock & roll-punk out there dat's not listenin to them  

ha, well whe ni was 14 and a pot head i luved teh black sunday album, never really been into them sice them, but your right, alot of non hip hop heads do like cypress hill.

I thought the same but this might mean it's not

Cypress hill are an experienced act snoop should just play the background and let them do what they do.

I wouldn't hold out much hope for all the new or smaller West Coast artists getting signed...

Cypress Hill are a no-brainer for a major label as they've already sold something like 15 million records in total, so they have a track record, they still do huge shows and have a brand name, a strong following, etc.

Snoop's position is probably more of a publicity move for Priority, putting a famous rapper as "Creative Chairman -, he probably has very little say compared to the people who own the company and are on the board

Cypress Hill will have be easy to pitch in a board meeting - "what really big Hip-Hop groups are unsigned at the moment? Ah, yeah, Cypress Hill, they've sold millions and millions... let's have Snoop "sign" them, that'll be publicized everywhere and give their album some buzz, we market it to their big fanbase and make some money"

As opposed to, "hey Snoop, who should we sign?"   "sign my little cousin, Lil Hustle Dogg G, who has no track record, no sales, a bit of an internet buzz on some West Coast sites, no shows, some wack production on a spin-off mixtape of mine, etc"

nah, ur wrong. snoopy handpicked Mac Shawn (Priority wouldn't eyeball an artist like him for a second otherwise), and he handpicked the re-issue-projects for the 25th anniversary blast off - EPMD, nwa and eazy-e
snoop's got an input for sure in the decisions
