He is prob fed up of being called an underground rapper. He wants to be world wide recognised like Dre, Eminem, Nate, Snoop.  He knows he has got the talent but he is just prob fed up of ppl taking his shit for granted like.

Yeah 100k sounds more like the real number. I feel he should of put on more westcoast artists (Snoop, Xzibit) to help boost the sales.

Under the Influence has sold 137,659 units according to current SoundScan data. RIAA also has no record of GOLD certification for this project.


Too bad, the man deserves another Gold plaque.
