congrats to him, sad thing is the bay need to make some wack music to sell, but that's the harsh reality of the world we live in, the wacker the cd, the greater it sales
-
hmmm, I guess that's the final numbers....fuc it, the bay is on top of the charts for the 1st time in I dunno how many thousand moons....YEE!
-
niiiiiceeeeee......GHOSTRIDE THE WHIP!!!

It's wack to ure standards....if you were out here and saw these songs in action, you'd love it just like we do.
-
thats really awesome. sad to say, but hes one of the top selling west coast artists in the lastt 3 years. Props to him, and for putting out a good album.
-
i must say i'm pretty impressed with these numbers. with 89% in it is very possible that he will break 100,000 in sales for week 1. i honestly didn't think he could pull it off. props. now, who wants to put bets on gold? ;D i think that if that remix with kanye and game gets a video it's a good possibility (funny seeing as how that song isn't even on the CD). it'll be interesting to see this develop...
-
good shit for 40! and for the record, the East Coast is loving and supporting this record!
-
I am one of those numbers... lol
Anyways, the Bay ain't been up there since before 'Pac got shot. So it's all good, 40 Waters, bringing back the Bay.

Naw that's the final numbers. And it will go gold once that T-Pain single drops. And GaMe will be replaced by Ice Cube for the "Tell me when to go" Re-Mix although they playing the GaMe version on the radio all over. The controversy over his verse gettin cut is just more and more promo.
-
whys his verse getting cut?
-
50 Cent ain't allowing it to be featured on the Official re-mix. Lil Jon and 40 didn't want to pay 50 for the verse. 50 is pimping GaMe right now. Shit's krayzie.

???? I definitely don't believe that shit....how can 50 control Game like that?
-
Anyone remembers how many units 40's previous album sold in the first week?
I seem to remember it also was in the top 5, I'm not sure though :-\
-
Let's hope his sales don't drop too hard the second week. But those are good numbers for him. He needs a good 2nd single.

That's the word mane. I don't understand it myself because Scarface had a single with GaMe, but now I heard he supposodly paid 50 for it.
40 did 41,000 on his last album (With the Fabolous featured single might I add).
-
i dont like it
-
Props to E40! The album really grew on me...
-
Props to 40 and everyone for supporting it. The 2nd single with T Pain should blow up, I could see pop radio playing it.
-
i love that t pain song "tryna get to youuuuu and that boottttttyy"
-
^^LOL at your sig.

LOL.
Makes you wonder when "Doctors Advocate" will come out, if at all..
Game was supposed to be on the Bun-B album, and the Sheek album, I guess we know why..
At least he was on the Biggie album, but Puffy probably 50 off.
-
i hope 40 goes platanium.
-
real good numbers....
50 dont control game's apearences, i think dre does...
game was on dj quik's, biggie's, face's and jamie foxx's albums
i remember dj quik thanking dre for letting game being on his album

yeah that 50 shit is just internet rumors until is hear or see evidence...anyways I'm glad 40 water is doin good in sales.
-
50 talked to lil jon and had game taken off, it was based on their personal relationship
and if i had to guess i'd say there are clauses in game's contract where 50 can still decide shit until the budget for his next album opens.
-
I'm hearing the remix with Game's verse out here in Boston.
Congrats to E-40!

-
yea props to 40 waya!!!
-

-
I hoped he sold more :(
-
platinum would be nice
-
congrats to 40, i got a feelin he'll go gold 4 sure
PUT YA SUNNY SHADES UP! 8)
-
so he's Number 1 on the Billboard?
-

No he's #3. He has the #1 rap album.
-
That's actually very impressive. Congratulations to E-40.
-
Damn yeah thats good for 40.. and its only week 1.. he could get gold easily if momentum doesn't slip
I urge everyone to give this album a chance or few... especially in a different setting. I heard it once.. I could get why people felt it.. but wasn't really grabbed by it.. then I put it on my phone (sony w800i walkman thingy).. and played it while i was working out a the gym.. and now i'm feelin the album much much more..
Definitely on my order list for when I import next..
-
this album is guaranteed to grow on you and good enough to bumb start to finish. there's only 2 songs i don't listen to
-
Thats Crazy that nowadays all you have to do is sell barely 100,000 first week copies to be #3 on the charts, 10 years ago you would have had to sell ALOT more then that to be top 3 on the charts. So sad how CD burners have ruined Rappers Sales...... :grumpy:
-
^ ya man if it wasnt for all this torrent shit his sales would be going dumb dumb dumb
-
^ the cream always rises to the top..
if its good enough he'll shift records anyways..
-
good to see that youve warmed up to the 40 album Seer 8)
-
It's good to see 40 Water gettin his proper shine. He been puttin in work for a long damned time, and been keepin Cali heads movin for a minute now, and finally, tha rest of tha world is actually givin credit to tha dude responsible for tha hiphop lingo he created, then had jacked from his ass.

Sorry, but that's BS.
There's no big name artists coming out right now, there's no Mariah, Usher, 50 Cent, Eminem, Backstreet Boys or whatever being released in March, they're just done with the Xmas sales, now they're all waiting to release the big summer hit.. that's why the top selling numbers are so lame right now, it's rookie/experimental season.
CD burners didn't ruin the sales, record labels ruined the sales, by refusing to adjust to the internet, they could sell billions of tracks if they got with the times.
-
The fault rests with the the major labels and payola. If CD burners were the reason, 50 cent and Mariah wouldn't be 5x platinum.

B-12:
40's sales have earned him #1 rankings in several key markets including:
The Bay
LA
San Diego
Fresno
Tucson
Las Vegas
#2 In:
Seattle
Portland
Kansas
Colorado Springs
and a bunch of top 10 markets.
As for that NY rumor, he only sold 629 but we know how that goes.
Dont forget he also sold 16K LEGAL downloads first week, damn good.
NOW WE KNOW MUTHAFUCAZ WEREN'T LYING AT SOHH, NY IS HATIN TOUGH !!!!
-
Count me in those 16k legal downloads... I just copped it a couple of days ago off iTunes (http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=129020572&s=143441)
That shit is growing on me... it has some bangers in there. And I agree with 'Seer... some of those tracks bang better in different scenarios... some are car bangers, some club bangers, some street bangers... overall, the album is nice!
Peace 8)

Most people in NY and the East in general just don't like 40 and his style. They all hate how he raps and say "he don't talk about shit" "he raps off beat all the time" and all that. U know how that goes though
-
i gotta disagree with r-tistic, everyone Ive played the album for is feeling it, and alot of people do like E-40 out here, its just the basic listeners who hate...for example the Dipset faithful

Are you serious? goddamm!! We be gettin all excited when our songs get downloaded 1,000 times from our servers. 100,000 downloads though? is that a dubcnn record or what? I'ma have 2 make an announcement on siccness or something.
