No, if he released Shit Hits The Fan as a first single, it would of sold more.

As you said, dope album.

i think Bad Bitch woulda been a good choice of single.

Yeah, "Bad Bitch" might've been a better choice, "Got Some Teeth" was a fuckin stupid choice for a single. "The Set Up" and "Don't Come Down" was way mo' better.

The only Obie Trice video I've ever seen on tv was Got Some Teeth. A lot of people liked that song.

Rap fans liked The Set Up, but the mainstream audience didn't like that song...

Exactly. I have friends who don't listen to Hip Hop, but they know that track still to this day. I think it was a pretty good choice for a single.

obie's album was full of tracks that could have been a singles. Got some teeth was a good novelty track but i thought it was a bad choice for single, it was too similar to eminems 1st singles when he realises an album.

Got some teeth was the reason that album sold and eventually went platinum. You might not think it was a good song but as far as being catchy, it hit the mark amongst the mainstream.

got some teeth was the reason the album didnt sell as well as it could have...i said years and years back when the album dropped that it wouldnt sell well because obie targeted the first single at ppl who already were copping the album before the single even dropped....the shady record eminem groupies who would have bought the album regardless of quality...you see he already had a whole host of white boys in the can but he should have went and targeted the niggaz....niggaz were already sayin obies eminens slave and then when he dropped got some teeth, he basiclly lost all support from niggaz becaus i still dont know a nigga who copped cheers....if he released the setup...bad bitch or oh as the first single he would have sold alot more....got some teeth works with eminem because all the white kids will buy it because thats his forte and they can all relate to him doin that corny shit but when obie drops a got some teeth, nigga looses all credibility he had...and it showed with his sales...back then just hittin platinum was considered a weak effort especially by shady or aftermath...

Got some teeth was a horrible chioce for first single and ruined obies career imo....never thought he was anything special anyways, got outshone on every beat he had a guest on in cheers and also had some of the best dre beats post 2001 on cheers but really those beats were wasted on obie
