I wouldn't exactly call LL relevent. 187,000, big deal! It probably won't sell too much more. You wanna talk about relevent after 20+ years then mention U2, or Aerosmith, 30+ years Bruce Springsteen and Michael Jackson (except for the wrong reasons), after 40+ years Bob Dylan and the Rolling Stones. KRS One is still relevent to the rap community and that's all we can expect from rap artists. No rapper stays on top of the music community for than a few years, sometimes they get a comeback for a couple more years but that's it. LL may be more relevent that KRS but that doesn't mean he's that relevent.
KRS won a Billboard founders award (for Hip Hop) along side Isaac Hayes (who won it for RnB) in 2004. I'd like to think that is at least somewhat relevent.

how many niggas on your block were anticipating/prasing/even talking about digital or keep right? exactly. even if its only women buying ll's albums, hes still relevant, cause people wanna hear his shit. krs aint. he reminds me of that old bitter man whos still trying to cling on to his past. talking about whats real hiphop and whats not?nigga, shut the fuck up. you didnt create this shit. making hiphop bibles and all that nonsense, fuck outta here.

When I said KRS One is still relevent to the rap community I didn't mean to imply that he was relevent, I just meant he isn't completely forgotten about. LL is more relevent than KRS, and he always was. I just don't think LL is that relevent to begin with.

--- End quote ---
6 solo albums
3 group albums
1 EP
Kill At Will is an EP, I wouldn't consider Bootlegs & B-Sides a real album and I don't know if you've heard the second N.W.A (probably not) but he wasn't a member of the group then. So group and solo that's nine LPs and an EP.

Question tech, where did you hear Cube sold more cuz i could of sworn his tops sales wise is 2 million. And LL's put up those numbers a couple of times.

Based on random facts, figures and sources Ive seen through out history, Ive come to the understanding that the following are Cubes sales
AMW- Platinum
DC- 2 Platinum (Cube was King)
KAW- Platinum
Predator- 2 platinum (Good day blew for him on mtv)
Lethal Injection- Platinum
Bow Down- 2 platinum (recently certified)
Vol 1 War- Platinum
Vol. 2 Peace- Gold
Terrorist Threats- Gold
Ice Cube Greatest Hits- didnt sell nothing
Also Lench Mob went Gold.
Thats like 12 million, not including NWA
And Cube never spit for the hoes, until he became Don Mega
