If in three months this album doesn't push anymore solid units then I just gotta say "fuck the industry" ... it's too early to tell, but it seems like all this TRL poppy shit really does get to people.... damn... R Kelly does better than that and I think R Kelly isn't on Nate's level

Its not that great..I wish it was but Im being real.  The fact that 30 something albums sold better than Nate Dogg on Nate Dogg's opening day is VERY disappointing.  However, the record sales as a whole last week were huge.  The fact that Nate was in the 30's and sold 82,000 says something.  Mack 10 debuted at 46 i believe (maybe 48)..either way -he still probably pushed 60,000 units.  So--what Im saying is -if you look at the units these albums are doing great-but these high sales weeks arent going to last much longer.

One way to look at things is that "Music and Me" has already sold half as much as his debut double disc did in 1 week.

This is clearly a case where quality over-rides quantity  :)

If Nate was as comecialized as the rest of these sell out niggas then he would have sold 500,000 or more the first week but since the only niggas who are down wit nate arent down wit commercialized bullshit.  Nate is a true gangsta and talks about the shit that us hood niggaz could relate too.  I think i will go out and buy anotha nate disc to support him.  His shit is tight as hell for all you haters out there go buy another nsync or backstreet cd b i itch es.

Yah..but its a greatest hits collection.  Mack 10 outsold Ice Cube last week and Mack 10 is by no means a bigger star than Cube.
