Terrible Promotion + Terrible Distribution + Terrible Recognition + Terrible appeal to the teeny bopper crowd + name not being 50 Cent or Eminem + being from the westcoast = TERRIBLE SALES ON A GREAT WESTCOAST ALBUM

I'm disappointed but not too suprised. To me, it seems like a bad combination of the media and major companies bein against the west coast, as well as other coasts just not carin about the west.

But with this album, it wasn't even promoted on the west...anybody who I asked about if they were buyin it, they were all like "it's out??" and most people I kno in L.A. bought Joe Buddens over Roscoe.

Man, shit's lookin worst and worst and worst for the west...7 years ago, NEVER would I have thought the south would outsell the west, ON the west coast, but now it's happenin
