Yea for sure!!! I dont know whats wrong with him/label.....horrible promotion, I mean i guess 400K is pretty good for word of mouth but he needs to drop a single like "Angel" or maybe even "LAX Files"

who the fuck cares?

god damn why is it only an issue when its Game sales?

do u people expect Game to sell a mill? no Game is a b-list rapper.

muthafuckas listen too much what 50 cent says i swear.

wheres the thread about Snoop sales? about new west sales? oh thats right they dont have albums out.

what about Cubes album? exactly stop makin it an issue just cuz its Game. How come nobody says Jeezy flopped?

because 50 gets in ya head too much. Because you niggas think if Game doesnt sale as much as he did when he was with G-Unit, which was fuckin 2004 when Tony Yayo even sold, its a flop.


shut the fuck up about sales and move on who cares.

It's not an issue just about Game's sales, but you make it sound like it is.
I expected Game to sell a million, why? Cause his last two albums did that, right?
What you mean b-list rapper, what the fuck? I've seen many times Game's videos played on MTV and all that. You really don't see them playin artists like DPG, Quik, Xzibit,
they don't even play Cubes videos.

LAX did not flop, Going gold after 3 weeks aint that bad with today standards. I dont know why people are trying to call that a flop. But selling over 350,000 first week is not flop. And "My Life" is still goin strong. Its gets mad views on youtube, and its in the TOP 5 on 106 n Park. But it is time for Game to drop a new single fairlly soon 8)


PS- LAX aint garabage. Just because the whole records dosent sound westocoast that makes it garbage?? Game Dropped DA which was like 85% westcoast. Open your ears. LAX is dope!

one word: pirating.


lax was the one of the best albums to come out in 2008. hands down. it would've had a shit ton more sales if it was more orientated towards the teeny boppers like tha carter III. thank god it wasn't. i could give a shit less how many copies an album sells. if i like it, then i'm content. albums sales in today's market don't mean jack shit. i guarantee if you incorporated illegal downloads game would be sittin at around 2 mill + easily.

I agree.  Not sure why he hasn't gone gold yet but I liked the album and that's the only thing that matters to me.

Game is in good shape. Gold in a week, 2 at the most and that will be perfect timing soon to drop that next single. Get that new single out before the buzz completely dies on your project.

Its not great, but for Today, with Nelly Having 4 singles with Fergie  Akon and all them selling 120 000, its amazing.

Plus My Life will be a Million Sales Single, its already 500 000+ with 45 000 a week,

Digitals Hurt the album sales, but Game will push 700 000 At least, thats Good for these days

Yeah, I don't see any promotion for Game's album.  His label won't promote him because of his beef with 50.
