LL Cool J sells 187,000!!!!!!!! Unbelievable, longevity wise he is the GOAT

[Now_Im_Not_Banned]

There's also a dude named Too Short still around doing his thing...Anyone know of him?

[smartass]

krs has the best discography in rap history, but hes no longer relevant. neither is short dog. start crying...im just speaking the truth...ll is still selling...they never really were in the first place

[Eddie G.]

This album was a complete piece of shit, even though it sold 187k, it still sucks, and LL fell the fuck off. And I don't know why everyone is hating on Cube, he's released shit I've liked since 98.

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.

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.

8...You're forgetting "Kill At Will" and "Bootlegs & B-Sides"...Then you got the 2 WSC albums...Then the 2 NWA albums he was part of...All together, Cube has 8 solo albums and 4 group albums...Together that makes 12.

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.

WTF? "NWA & The Posse" was NWA's first album...Then "Straight Outta Compton"...He was still a member during "Straight Outta Compton"...

LL's shit is 10 times better than anything Ice Cube has released since 98

Bullshit.

Cmon man , GOAT and 10 were both wack. I gave this piece of shit a listen and turned it off by track 8.

Vol 1 War > any Cool J album since mr. smith

[King Tech Quadafi]

since 99 both cube an LL have been equally as wack both having a few bright moments since than tho.  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

Where are you, Mr. C2Knuckles?

[ZILLA THA GOODFELLA]

YES !!!! THANK YOU......THERE GOES A REAL LEGEND !!!!

16 or so albums deep......had demos out in 83......STILL DOIN IT BIG !!!

[7even]

since Cube changed his style to that slacky whacky style he became a bitch. sometimes he still spits straight fire like in "call 911".

WTF? "NWA & The Posse" was NWA's first album...Then "Straight Outta Compton"...He was still a member during "Straight Outta Compton"...

I'd call that a compilation.   Straight Outta Compton is thier debut.
"Featuring Eazy E, Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, M.C. Ren, Yella, Arabian Prince, The D.O.C., Dr. Rock, The Fila, Fresh Crew, Ron-De-Vu, Fresh K, And More" 
It's like give credit to Nas for QB's Finest.
