Title: Eastsidaz fall to #62
Post by: SugeFight on September 20, 2001, 07:51:52 AM

In what was nothing of a surprise the new Eastsidaz album considers to fall off the charts.  There were 11 new entrys in the top 50 this week.  Also-with Jay Z and Fabolous taking the 1 and 4 spots respectively, it's no surprise that the Eastsidaz album wouldnt push that many units.  What it boils down to is the Eastsidaz need a new single, but with this Goldie Loc leaving Dogghouse thing, who knows?  Oh-and Krayzie Bone is still in the top 100 (i think hes in the 80's..)...but still-it could be worse.

The Eastsidaz album is really dope.  And I cant understand the single for "ILuvIt" not taking off.  But the Eastsidaz havent completely fallen off.  The album came in at #4..but honestly what it boils down to is people love Snoop Dogg--Not Tray Dee and Goldie Loc.

Jake..same basic idea.  People buy Snoop Dogg..and there are only so many fans that are willing to buy an album of Snoop protoges unless they have a hot single thats caught on.

The last album did the same thing, and still went platinum.  They pushed it to platinum with the "Got Beef" single/video and promotional video we passed out at the record stores.

It's not like the album was a total flop...I'm pretty sure they have sold close to gold if they're not there already...They debuted at #4 with 116,000 copies which is pretty good...

dueces n trays is a guaranteed gold album, cuz it sold more than 100,000 first week, same thing like the last eastsidaz album, it sold 150,000 first week and was gold, but got beef blew the sales thru the roof, and EVENTUALLY it went platinum

techniec's prediction, if Cool is released as a single, same scenerio, dueces n trays will eventually hit platinum.

it is about sales after a point because if your shit doesn't sell than you are gonna get dropped and you aren't gonna hear much about them artists anymore, peace.

I love the way you all think that if you were in control of someones album itd be better and sell more.  Bottom line-theyre in the music business, we're not.  They do know what theyre doing-even if it doesnt seem like it.

maybe cause this flopped they'll put more effort into the next one ....  :P

Title: Re: Eastsidaz fall to #62
Post by: =[Euthanasia]= on September 22, 2001, 02:17:29 PM

C'mon, it hasn't exactly flopped...it hit #4 on The Billboard Chart! It might not of made a major impact but I don't exactly think it's a flop.....I mean if they were expecting it to do amazingly well then they could consider it a flop but I think it's done well since it hardly gets any promotion an' shit.

Title: Re: Eastsidaz fall to #62
Post by: lee on September 22, 2001, 02:33:50 PM

yeah i still have not seen the "i luv it" vid and i watch all the rap shows on tv ...  :(

Title: Re: Eastsidaz fall to #62
Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on September 23, 2001, 08:52:17 AM

I'ma say this...The only way they can get good sales with their next single is if they release "Welcome 2 Da House" because it is so catchy, it is one of those songs that get stuck in your head, and that you can picture kids at school singing...Unlike the other songs on the album, which aren't intended for being catchy or getting sales...Just like "Got Beef" pushed up sales because it was so catchy, "Welcome 2 Da House" would do the same...

Title: Re: Eastsidaz fall to #62
Post by: SugeFight on September 23, 2001, 08:17:24 PM

To whoever said they have not seen the ILuvIt video before, thats strange.  Ive seen it on MTV, MTV2, and BET.  And its a really great video by the way.
