Some of you are hypocritical bitches got jokes for days.  You complain about good music flopping yet you the same people are the first to DL the shit and you wonder why rappers don't take chances anymore and just stick to the formula

Hip Hop in the charts ths week

Rank Artist    Album                        This Week Est. Total
9 Damian Marley & Nas Distant Relatives 25,000   83,000

So in 2 weeks its done 83k, I wouldn't call it a flop though, has there really been any major promotion or single pushed?

I reckon it'll be an album whi'll continue to sell a few units every month

i didn't hear shit on the radio, so for an album with little to no promotion, it did pretty good.

& like Dubz said, it's not finished yet.

I dont consider it a flop.It had zero marketing put behind it.Does it even have a video?I havent seen in any ads or anything behind this release.If def jam got behind this album like they did say deeper then rap or a jay z album and it did these numbers id say it was a flop.But this album didnt have big name producers on every song and eye catching guest features it probably didnt even cost a lot to make the album compared to the average mainstream rap album.

it had lil wayne on it? and they been on all the late night shows performing,but this ain't one of those first week albums it's one of those over time joints it'll probably push 300,000 plus when it's run is up,so they should at least eat off it especially with performances yell

Considering Damian produced a huge slab of the beats (if not all?) and there was fuck all marketing etc, the overheads for this album would be low as hell. They're touring like crazy, I'd say they'll actually cake quite a bit of this release
