dude's work ethic seems to be paying off, congrats to him. he (and droop-e) must be really making shitloads of money considerin' he's independent (unlike snoop, for example) with a profit averagin $10 a copy. good to see that he can still sell (a little) with a quality product (from what ive heard. i haven't listened to the whole albums yet, ima buy em soon)

you may be right, your posts for the most part seem quite knowledgeable..but i highly doubt hes getting 10$ a copy..especially since best buy in the US was selling them for 7.99$...but i very well could be wrong..

You don't really think E-40 is making more money than Snoop is, do you?

no i don't, especially since snoop makes 10 mill with a tour LOL. but as an independent artist, 40 (and his son, who owns heavy on the grind enternainment) makes more an album than snoop does.

That $10 a copy shit might have been true back when places like samgoody were selling cds for 17.99+tax. But now you can go to target or best buy and get them for 7.99-9.99 so do you really think the artist is making more than the retail price?

Probably still good money but let's not get carried away
