Add it all up, I think you're gonna come up with... in excess of 10 fucken millions. (Not that sales have anything to do with creative genius & overall quality, but...)
That was my point.

I think it's easy to see the decline due to him taking over the control of the albums.  I think DA he had help from Scott Storch, etc.  I guess when you get big you don't think you need the guys that got you there anymore.  Oh well, he can keep hyping up stuff, and he's going to be back living with his mom.

GAME OVER......He did have a good run.

Notice the decline began after Joe Budden dissed him with "Game Over" & shitted on his life. I think there is a direct correlation there.

You all know that overall records sales dwindled drastically with internet "free" downloading. It's be hard to find ANY artists whose sales DIDN'T dwindled over the past 10 years.
I checked with Jay Z who's supposed to be a heavyweigth seller., Well his sales diminished by about half over the last 10 years. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay-Z_discography (What you mean "wikipedia is an automatic L" in terms of those figures?If the figures wrong feel free to give the correct source.)
I ain't saying you don't have arguments but in this case what do you make of Dre's alledged involvement "overseeing" "The RED Album"?

[OG Jaydc]

If dre oversaw red you'd see him being listed as executive producer. The reality is game was trying to gain interest in red by making people believe dre was overseeing the project. The truth is all dre did was send game a couple of throwaway mediocre beats and did a couple interludes.

Wikipedia is an L because anybody can edit the pages and write whatever they want.I could go there right now and write red sold 12 million copies.

Jay-z is still going platinum plus every album. He peaked as an artist sales wise with vol.2 but his sales have been steady and consistent. Game isn't going to go gold with red.

[Cordozzar Drakko]

Probably not, but no one'll never know the numer of downlods there was. Maybe the VEVO number of views can give an indication?
Because viewing the video is free, basically just like downloading any album today? Don't you think?
Like this very vid is over 2.5 million views already. Just asking...Cause  I ain't saying his last album is better than his first.

[OG Jaydc]

I don't think so. People always click random videos on YouTube that they aren't particularly interested in. And downloads isn't a good indicator either. Many people download albums because it's free not because they might be interested. A download does not equal a loss of a sale.

True because you don't pay shit. But c'mon, don't tell me you're downloading albums you have NO interest in at all to begin with. That'd be pretty stupid then.

I think downloading The Game's last album was best for the people.  Since it's shit, most people I know just deleted it (or saved 2-3 tracks).  I bought his first 2 albums to support him.  The people downloading it isn't bad, because they will post some positive stuff for it to sell more.  I agree artists sales do go down, however there are still plenty of people selling millions if it's quality. 

The most disappointing thing about this RED album was the hype.  The Game was talking like it's going to be up there with Detox, etc.  When The Game's contract is up, he should go to Baby and just fuck it up even more.  The Game needs a coach like athletes.  He's no Snoop Dogg, so he can't just put out shit and sell because Snoop is an icon. 

He had the recipe, and went off track.  I doubt he will make a comeback.  Dudes got some issues, and it shows.

It ain't everybody who can pay tha coast to be da boss, right?

I thought that beef was before the Doc? And let's be real, the general mainstream listener doesn't give a fuck about Joe Budden. Game is done though, not arguing about that.

[doublee313]

The Game needs to just admit he fucked up, and make another track crying to Dr. Dre drunk.  Eminem shit on his Relapse album, and he came out ahead. 

He can have fun with his Martains and Goblins.  What a joke.  I just can't get Wayne out of my head.  That dude just ruins a track.  Yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh.

Joe Budden runs rap!
