So I was wrong about Mase selling out in stores.... Why didn't it sell?

Turns out he barely outsoled his sophmore brick, "Double Up".   I was suprised to see this.  To be honest, I was even expecting 1 million sales in the first week, but then when I heard it wasn't gettin much spins on radio and MTV, I reduced my estimate to 500,000.  Still it fell well short of even that number. 

I'd like to hear some opinions on why this album didn't put up big numbers.

album sales in general are down.  How many artist push 1,000,000 in opening week sales now a days.  Maybe 2 or 3.  Shit how many people sell 500,000 there first week now a days.  10 tops.  I was expecting more than what he sold.  what he do, 118k??  I thought 250k he would of did but i was wrong.  The thing with mase,  he was a novelty act.  Not murda mase,  he had skill.  Bad Boy Mase.  And the novelty has worn off.  It was nice to see him back those first 2 weeks but no1 cares now.

an by 2-3 pushing a mill a week,  i meant durin the course of the year an the same is said for those that push 500k in a week,  only 10 tops durin the course of a year.

Simple: It's wack as fuck.

The net, man.  You just download what you want.  I was mildly interested in the album, so instead of buying it, I just burnt it.  Case solved.  My money would have went to him, but because of the net and bootlegging, it's still in my wallet, and I still got his album.  EVERYBODY does that.
