Title: I'm VERY impressed with Warner Music Group.
Post by: ZILLA THA GOODFELLA on March 17, 2006, 12:54:46 PM
They doing it with this E-40 project....

They had two HUGE album release parties in NY & LA, both featured BIG NAME guests, and all kinds of press in attendance. They managed to fill every store back up by Thursday when it was sold out everywhere by Tuesday night. They put out the re-mix right when all the stores are filled back up. The re-mix features 2 of the biggest selling artists of 2005. They are going to shoot a video for the single with T-Pain, not only is that shit gonna blow up in clubs, but T-Pain is the hottest R&B artist in the U.S right now. And ofcourse MY BLOCK - THE BAY priemiered on regular MTV last night, and it is going to get played again this week. He's getting radio play and making radio appearances. He will perform @ Spring Bling for BET and they have tour dates for him everywhere in the nation.

There is no complaining, they did their job in an A+ fashion. There is no excuse if this album doesn't land in the Top 5 of the week on billboard or cross the 100,000 mark. This is IT, it's now or never. So the whole West Coast needs to stand up and celebrate the anticipation that's leading to the numbers this week. There is no excuses if the bay loses either, we are in the driver's seat right now.

APRIL 1ST (LIL JON & E-40) IN ROSARITO, MEXICO. CLUB ANIMALE VENUE...CALI FOLKS, BE THERE OR BE SQUARE !!!! SHIT'S GOIN DOWN !!!!

Although I don't like e40 and the hyphy movement
I see the bigger picture, the thing is if this hyphy thing is going to blow up,
I hope that it will help the westcoast in general and not only the hyphy movement. Cuz if not all the labels
want the artists to come up with that sound and not the original westcoast sound that I love.

the question is really about hypocrisy... why wasn't it about allowed to be about Game when his album dropped?  or when a Snoop album drops?

i'm not saying its you specifically.. but i gotta show the hypocrisy here.

and why dont u answer the other point? you already said what you said in this post inside another 40 post.


Also.. FACT IS... if Snoop went and put KANYE on a remix ya'll would be calling him a fucking sellout!!  Game aint from the bay..   where's the "yay love"? lol 

hypocrisy...

yup i agree.. i said that a few days ago.. go check the files! :)

also as an example how _not normal all these posts are_   ...WCR dont have a single 40 topic on their main page outside one for 40 show they covered thats over a month old.   if somethings as big as the handful of people here repping it claim why isnt our closest 'peer' also showing the same behaviour?

 Who would call him a sell out? I dont think nobody gives no fuck about what snoop does especially after he been fuckin with the neptunes like that, kanye would be a step in the right direction.

There will be an all-star Bay Area re-mix soon....that's different. This current re-mix is a strategy to get heard by the rest of the country....GaMe started in the bay and turned his back, now he's trying to fit in with the movement because he sees the potential, 40 didn't pay him for his verse, and we all see what he's doing, but who cares, he used the bay, now it's time to use him....and why are you even pointing Snoop out anyway? It is NOT the same.

Here's why I didn't answer your other "point"....because it doesn't MATTER. Why wasn't it allowed to talk about GaMe when his album dropped? I don't remember it not being ALLOWED....there was a million posts about him, and I supported it to the fullest, but after his album did drop, it went all wrong....I don't need to get into it.

Here's a more important question though....WHO CARES? Let this E-40 thing have its shine....what else is there to talk about in such an IMPORTANT week for the West Coast? yea let's start wondering if DJ Quik might drop another album like it fuckin matters....man, GET UP ON THE HYPE!!!!

I checked the files and couldn't find it, but I found this that I think Zilla seriously needs to know.
Your attitude is actually making people NOT want to listen to this album.
Title: Re: I'm VERY impressed with Warner Music Group.
Post by: Don Seer on March 17, 2006, 01:25:28 PM

and checking their shit.. i found a post a page or two in called "40.. burn or buy".. and it was a VERY mixed reception..

no doubt 40's gonna do ok off this one.. but its no where near what rodzilla correctly calls the HYPE..

Rod is i _know_ its HYPE..

OK, fine....My "attitude" (whatever that is) makes people NOT want to listen to the album. RIGHT, maybe those same people need therapy because they didn't get love at home growing up.

You guys are really starting to sound like nerds, this is a FORUM which is made for discussion and what is the major discussion going on everywhere in the West Coast right now? E-40 and the Hyphy Movement. So either accept it or go to the Outbound Connections where you won't find no threads of that nature.

Who cares about WCR.... get off their nuts and be happy the people on YOUR board aren't stuck in 1993.

Only if you understood the hype around this.... you won't grasp it behind the computer.

you really dont get it do you? in a real forum.. which when there is a group of people talking.. _if someone runs around shouting and tries to repeat the same topic and push something they either piss people off or get ignored_... you're acting like a cold caller.. you get it yet?



let me say something else 40 _WONT_ sell the numbers people are talking about.. i can tell you that right now.. you gotta learn to see that the opinion of 'us outsiders' is more valuable than you think.. because if _we_ like it.. it has the potential to grow..

No I don't get it. I've made 2 threads about E-40 and both had VALID discussion topics, read into it and you'll see my point. It's bigger than all that.

But the thing is, we don't have the expectations you think we have.... If he crosses the 100,000 mark, it is a SUCCESS in a MAJOR way for us. Why? Because we will have majors scouting.... I'm in the bay area scene pretty heavy bro, I know what I'm talking about here.... But at the end of the day, we haven't nearly reached the success we shoot for, so either we gone fake it till we make it or put all our energy behind 40 to lead the way.... or BOTH  ;)

100k easy with this hype..  i'm not directing everything at you.. but some people _are_ acting like this is bigger than games album..

the thing is.. "the cream will always rise to the top" is sooooo true.. quality product really does sell more.. someone from the bay could drop something to change the game..and its likely they'll come out of leftfield.. its the way it goes more often than not..

40's put out a solid album.. its not to my _own_ tastes.. but as a packaged thing, as a concept.. its done well.. its just not my deal..

I have never seen so many E-40 threads before on so many forums especially this one. This kinda reminds me when Game dropped his album most of the threads waas all about him might have to make a sub forum jus for e-40
