We are in the act a fool age of entertainment yellI agree. But also the label situation Rock went through def fucked it up a bit. That's the problem with alot of labels IMO, they always try to hit new artists with a bang instead of building them up from the ground. I'm sure that Rock's album would've done better had it dropped in 2007-08 and they could've kept dropping a few albums and i'm sure he would've been a bigger name by now, but what happened was the label tried to reach a wider audience and they never caught on and so they didn't wanna invest big money for his project. But like you said Rock also doesn't have that "star potential" and neither does Kendrick, but who cares still dope artists.

in the indy game they dont ship alot of records. i was told they only shipped 8000 copies of follow me home. jay rock 5300 of those in limited stores. shipping is the bad part of being on a indy
it doesn't help that the album is still not out in parts of Europe,Asia and here in canada. they said it would be in canada some time this month but its not at best buy yet.
