Bone is never about sales anyway...Their last few albums haven't gone gold...It's about the quality of the music...

I think this album will go gold, just because their name alone is gonna garner them some sales. However, going platinum for them will be difficult, because like dude above said, there is no promotion. BTNHresurrection didnt have much promotion either, but it had more than TWO does.......I could really care less about the sale though, I just want a great album quality-wise. They already have the sales anyway, and E.1999 Eternal is one of the best selling rap albums of all time.

Title: Bone is gonna do at least a Million.

Bone as a group has a solid following of at least one million individuals, which virtually gaurantees them a platinum record for every one they continue to release. Krayzie Bone's "Thug Mentality" Lp sold 2 million copies (1 Million X 2 for the extra disc.)

E.1999 Eternal is actually at 7 million, and Creepin On Ah Come Up is at 4 million............

Are you kidding me?  They can put anything they want on there.

I'd rather believe the RIAA. Why would they be less accurate than the record labels?
I know the labels bullshit the album's status in ads in the mags too, that's for sure.

E.1999 Eternal has sold 6 million according to Layzie and Krayzie Bone in an interview I heard earlier this year...

4x platinum is still huge.  "Crossroads" was huge for sure that's why that single went double platinum (which is amazing).  Jigga was huge in '98 and went 4x for Volume 2 and it had 6 singles.  Selling 5 million copies is not easy, Em, Puffy, and Biggie did it and guys like Hammer and Vanilla Ice did (a couple I could think of on the top of my head).  2Pac couldn't even do it, All Eyez On Me went 9x (which is 4.5 million copies.)

I just don't know what would be more reliable than RIAA (for US)
