Title: Mack 10 and Nate Dogg off to slow start
Post by: SugeFight on December 10, 2001, 10:08:45 AM
As of 4:00 pm on Monday, Nate Dogg is at the #27 and Mack 10 is at #47 .  Maybe theres just too much hip hop in the market and theyre all taking away from eachother sales.  I dunno--

Nate 27 is a shame, but..

WE will see , but i think nate will be in the top 20 and he will eventually go platinum......
   Still, i havent seen the video alot, and it is a good song but not the catchiest ever.....i honestly think "You're Woman HAs Just Been SIghted" would have been a lot better a s a single........

well at music world they only were selling 1 copy of Mack 10 for 25.99

Mack 10 has fallen out of the top 50.  Nate has plummeted to the 30's.  Cypress Hill is at 39, Cube at 47, Kast at 24, and De La Soul is NOWHERE to be found.

Dammit!   >:(

Why won't people buy Nate Dogg's album when he helped sell so many artists like Ludacris, Fabolous, Dre, Pharoah Monch etc and people still buy their shit.  I think tommorow when I got out and buy Warren, I'll buy 3 mores copies of "Music & Me."

Personally i think Keep It G.A.N.G.S.T.A would be a good single cuz of lil moe in it,  she appeals to all those teeny boppers an shit an that song wit J.D. would sell records,  he just needs a single to blow up,  tha Chronic was tha same way,  sales were slow outta of tha gate but than they released nutin but a "g" thang an tha chronic blew tha fuck up

Well Nate's album hasn't got much promotion, not even in the states. I have never seen the 'I Got Love' video and the only promotion I have ever seen is the small airplay of 'I Got Love' on the radio and the commercial for the album that shows during Rap City. Thats it.

Why do sales matter so much to people?

Nate is dope... if he keeps putting out singles... his album will do good... if he pulls an Eastsidaz and Kurupt, and only goes with one single... the of course the album will do bad... just let it be... you got the album right? Then bang that shit... you supported Nate... the rest will follow

Sales matter a whole lot.... If you don't sell records.. you end up like Ras Kass.. he's only dropped 1 album in six years.. and he's extremely talented....

I want my favorite artists to sell millions of records.. so I can read about them and see them on TV a little bit, instead of always hearing about N-Sync, Ja Rule, Jay-Z, and O-Town all day long.

Thats a shame for Nate  >:(, but here in the UK album sales dont mean shit, its full of crap anyway,

Also if the album were by Nelly then it would be top 10, and thats a shame, cos Nate is 1000 times better then Nelly

Here in Finland you can't even get Nate's album at the record stores... Fucked up, eh? You can order from the internet though, but the price is pretty high; 'bout 23,5 $.
