Title: Mobb Deep - Blood Money a Disappointment?
Post by: icebergslimIII on May 29, 2006, 12:44:17 PM
Sup foolz, how big of a disappointment is the Mobb Deep cd? I saw it debuted at #3 or so, then dropped to 26 and I think that it is 40 something in their 3rd week. How big of a disappointment is this cd? 50 has been hyping them for awhile now. I think even Tony Yayo sold more than Mobb Deep! Banks will flop when he comes out too. 50 then beg to work with Tha Game again when he realizes he wsa the only real nigga with talent.

That doesn't make any sense. First if all banks sold only a few hundred thousand less then Game, Beg for Mercy sold a million or so more. G-unit doesn't need Game to sell, since Game was only on Buck and Banks records, and both Games songs on them sucked. Game isn't talented, and I bet you Banks will go platinum. Ppl actually will buy a Banks/Buck/50 record, but when you start over hyping these random signees like Mobb deep, ppl don't want to hear. Why would Banks flop? His lyric ability is well above Game.

i don't think banks is better than game, but i loved blood money... artistically not a great album or anything but good to bump to in the ride.

the only thing that banks has over game is his punch lines...and that shit aint even that good. game is improving every day with his lyrics, rap...

^ not from what I've heard.. his songs have no point, just random rhymes thrown together to go with a beat, they don't build to anything, and their insanely repetitive.

I actually finally got around to listening to this today, its not as bad as people have been saying.  The first 3-4 tracks are garbage, but it really picks up after that.  I guess its not as good as Mobb Deeps other shit, but I've never followed em closely anyways.  Its a decent album, especially coming out on G Unit.

Banks >> Game lyrics wise but Banks voice is annoying , especially on "mainstream" beats.. I'd like to see him make a "dark" album with the same type of beats he spits on his mixtape... plus he's horrible at hooks (see My House, most of his 1st lp..). Actually the pb is that Banks (and his boss) wants to be a 50 cent clone... just let him do what he can do the best...

I think Blood Money was in the 70's this week on the chart! Think of all of that promotion, money and hype that 50 put into Blood Money and the it didn't even go gold!

I agree, people who don't like G-Unit always say they are "sell outs" for doing commercial songs and shit, but when they don't come out with a catchy 1st single, and don't sell a lot, then they say "it didn't even go gold".

They are just taking joy in G-unit's demise. If you didn't like a group would you...
a) Want them to put out wack music and sell a lot
b) Want them to put out wack music and not sell

If I don't like a group I don't want them to put out wack music, that would be the reason I don't like them, but when they put some good music out after a while then I will like that, it's not about not liking a group, it's about not liking the music.

I dont know how people like this album, this is easily mobb deeps worst album.  How can anyone like this trash.  I havnt listend to this trash since the week is leaked on the net.  And this coming from probably the biggest mobb deep fan here.

So then you said, "If you didn't like some music would you:

1. Want bla bla
2. Want bla bla"


That just doesn't make sense. How could that be what you 'ment'?
