Post by: LyRiCaL_G on June 22, 2006, 10:06:19 AM: agree with the cat who said the missy joint should be released, aftermath need to work on their single choices, game could have sold 4 milllion in the states along if he was done correct.....why wait so long for dre james if you aint never gone release that shit......

should have been touch it/get you some....video street single....kinda like a 50/50 thing

missy joint number 2

been through the storm next

and finally

dont get carried away with nas or legends of the fall off as the last joint

I don't think Legend of the fall offs would work as a single. It's too off-mainstream, and I can't really think of a good video to go with that.

That said though, I agree with the rest - single choices haven't been the best. Missy joint would've probably worked out better. But it's still great for Bus to get the #1 spot. More power to him.

Sales - kind of a double edged sword. On the other hand Busta (and Dre & Jimmy) is rich enough, but it could also mean that Busta has to go label shopping. Seeing as how the album was a solid product I'd hate for that to happen.

Post by: Eihtball on June 22, 2006, 06:23:21 PM: Cube went down to #10 with 64,000 sold. That means he's sold just over 200,000 so far...hopefully, he can reach Gold.
