radio isn't backing him at all. outside of L.A., hes barley getting any spins. they don't even play his record in the bay area. what does that say?
i just checked billboard and monica's awful record that sounds like grillz is getting more play than Game.
too much black balling going on.
-
he's on 106 & Park now, TRL earlier in the day, and has been getting excellent reviews reviews from critics. plus in Philly he's getting a decent amount of spins. I highly doubt his album flops, just a hunch

His first weeks sales should be good just based off hype alone. Its the weeks after that he has to be concerned about
-
He's got mad hype no doubt. He'll do okay, but probably not as good as his debut.
-
hes gettin spins in Sacramento like a muthafucka though...dont know why the Bay aint with it...?
-
I think he'll flop too. Everyone is talkin about him but I don't hear him getting many radio/video spins either. Then again I don't watch videos or listen to the radio much, so take it for what it's worth. I hope he sells well though, he has a whole coast depending on him.
-
I dont really listen to the radio at all but he does get his Videos played on MTV and BET so that should mean something.Out here in Vegas there will be alot of Game supporters on Tuesday.
-
LMAO...so I guess spins in the Bay means spins nationwide.
He's the ONLY L.A. artist who's been gettin spins nationwide with "One Blood"....EVERYBODY in the country has been hearin it. I donno how much burn "Let's ride" is gettin....but I know that One blood is gettin played everywhere. So um....looks like he's NOT going to flop.

well, now that u have said something negative about Game you must be proud of yourself.....go get yourself a cookie and sit in the korner homie. :wavey:
-
i saw something about him on CNN
-
THATS FUCK UP THEY ONLY PLAY GAME AND MR.CAPONE-E IN LA AND NOT ANY OTHER AND OTHER CITY ARE BLACK BLOCKING SOUTHERN CALI RAPPERS SINCE WE ARE THE REAL GANGSTERS BUT US MEXICANS GET MORE BLACK BALLED BUT THEY CANT STOP US WE ARE GETTING STRONGER LIKE IT OR NOT
-
in tucson arizona they play one blood and lets ride like every hour. i dont even listen to the radio much but when i do it is always on.
-

You're fuckin playin yourself, then.
If he gets more than a Platinum plaque, I'll be surprised. You need successful singles to stay on the charts long enough to do that well, and so far, none of Game's singles have gotten much national rotation (those of y'all in Cali talkin bout hearing "One Blood" on the radio...of course, what do you think, it's Cali! But Cali ain't the rest of America).

They gave you guys Nast Boy Clik, Baby Bash and Frankie J. Dont go gettin greedy on em now.
-
that shit was foul.
-
One Blood is gettin a lot of spins over here in UK!
-
i dont watch much music tv or listen 2 radio much, but i dont see his album floppin, for the simple fact he has a buzz, unlike some other artists puttin out album lately who actually did flop....game will sell, not as much as his debut, but he will sell more then the average record comin out nowadays

Well actually....I am from L.A., but I go to school in Florida, and I'm always bouncin around diff cities out here. I've heard "One blood" and "Let's ride" in rotation in Florida and in Atlanta...matter of fact, "Let's ride" was gettin played in Atlanta back in September.
But y'all are crazy to think Game doesn't have any publicity goin right now...he's the main subject of talk on nearly every rap board, either right behind Jay or even above him....he's been all over BET, on 106 n Park, commercials, and on the Hip Hop awards that will show the same day his album is released...they are talkin bout him in many different magazines.....he has a remix to his song that is ridiculous in that it has 25 of the top 40 rappers in the game, on ONE fuckin song!!! Regardless of if you think the song sounds like it was thrown together (which it was most likely)......NO ONE in history has even attempted to do something this ridiculous...let alone actually pulled it off!! Most rappers would be lucky to get 8 of these 25 rappers on their album or mixtape, let alone one song! So that there is major promotion, because many people are just like "damn...he must be major to do somethin like that".
I definitely don't think he's floppin...he's doin AT LEAST 250 K...anything less will surprise me.
-
It's not gonna do as well as his previous, but that's just 'cause as we all know, record sales are down. There's only been one platinum plaque for Hip-Hop this year, right? If the album goes platinum plus, I'd say it did well.
I'm guessing 200-300K the first week out. But we'll see for sure in a week, won't we?
-
As long as it isn't 140,000 the first week..UGH! 8)
I predict that the album will go at least platinum domestic, double plat worldwide at the end of its run.
-
Can't say what dude's gonna do saleswise, but One Blood definitely got quite a few spins out here in NYC. I haven't heard much love for Let's Ride tho.
-
^yea nobody really cares now that they know there's no Dre on it.
-
I doubt he's gonna flop. He'll probably do 300-400 the first week.
-
^yea nobody really cares now that they know there's no Dre on it.
most people that i know are happy that Dre´s not on it coz a lot of people think he´s been coming with weaks beats lately. i don´t agree with them, but these days just having Dre on your album won´t equal success. in the late 80´s to mid 90´s you´d sell just if Dre had a joint or 2 on your shit. it was the same in the early 2000´s but times have changed.
-
I think he'll flop too. Everyone is talkin about him but I don't hear him getting many radio/video spins either. Then again I don't watch videos or listen to the radio much, so take it for what it's worth.
Let's Ride gets played all the time in San Diego. Same with the One Blood remix with Mitchey Slick.

all that means is that he's making good musci cuz everybody who makes good music NEVER SALES ANYMORE think about it too LUPE FIASCO made a GREAT album and didn't sell shit but he's NICE he's better than game lyrically.
-
games lets ride and one blood stay being played in power 105 and hot97 and every morning lets ride is on MTV as i get ready for class

game gona sell at least the very least 2 million records. And by the end of 2007 i say reach 3-4

You don't need singles to make it big. It's gotta be meaningful..not pointless.
-
LOL at the title of this topic... the day after games cd drops...lol
-
so I guess flopping these days means selling 400k?
-
I feel you bro. This cat isn't goin to move any units.
