What are they blaming? Distribution? Promotion? Excess number of interludes?

perhaps the album isnt good enough for the fans to buy it ?

Post by: ag on July 10, 2003, 08:36:40 AM
the album shipped an initial 50k units... alot of #'s are still being crunched and the # we gave is a rough # of actual scanned copies which is horrendously hard to keep track of since the release is independant...

im positive the downloading didnt help

also what i dont gt is the people saying 'thats wack' dont know what other indepedant releases have sold in the same period.. so they have zero basis for comparison.

and i guess dpg can only compare against their previous figures yeah?

I'm pretty sure, that this number must be wrong. I mean, the album is really good and he got radio play in L.A, so he should even sell the 4000 copies only in L.A...

cant be wrong.. kronik posted it himself...

He is also posting many news that never turn out to be true, so why should that number be right.
Title: Re:Daz First Week Sales..........
Post by: Wild_Elmo on July 10, 2003, 09:33:59 AM
if he would have released it in march he would of sold better.. Did you see how kronik was telling everybody to go to the record stores and put the album in front of the shelves?

anyway fuck dpg records they just lost a fan

The thing is that this album probably had less promotion than TITLIL. I mean, they actually shot a proper video for Keep It Gangsta off of that album, whereas other than the two extremely amateur videos on the bonus DVD, no other videos have been filmed. If they had filmed a quality video for Dogg Catcha, I Got Dat Fire, or All Night Long then you can bet that this album would have sold more than it looks as if it has.

Post by: Funkadelic on July 10, 2003, 02:13:57 PM
I agree that the promotion wasn't that good besides the radio play he got in L.A. But I still can't believe that this number is right. I mean look at the promotion that has been made for "R.A.W" and compare it to "DPGC...".

Well I dont know why they said it would be his bigger release, and that the promotion would be the bomb

Are u guys forgetting this is an independant release. You have cats like roscoe selling 8,000 units his first week thats pretty much sad and he is on a major label. I guarantee his sales willl improve this week. Anyways how much is bone crusher and joe budden pushin and they have hot singles at the moment. Get ur minds right!

Well he entered at number 13 on the billboard top 20 indepedent album releases, so that shows that he is doing pretty well in the independent market.

a total of 50k units have been shipped out across the country.  thats not the number of copies sold.  but either way daz gets paid for 50,000 copies sold cuz the music stores gotta pay for the album

this album is very dissapointing.  I was really looking foward to this one, especially after a mediocre Life I lead.  Huge dissapointment, probably most dissapointing album of the year so far for me.  Whats with all the fuckin skits?  That was really gay.  Goddamn DPG has fallen off so hard.  The group that got me to love music has fallen off so hard.  Snoop, Kurupt, Daz, Nate is still dope but his last album sucked.  Warren G, Eastsidaz, Bad Azz, and Soopafly gotta keep DPG alive.

Damn, I enjoyed it a lot. Of course you're right about the skits, I don't know what Daz was thinking. But tracks like All Night Long, Gangsta Party 2, Dogg Catcha - IMO Daz sounds better vocally (and lyrically) than he has for years.

how would u know? Do u have a copy from them? No. Im pretty sure no one has received their cd from 101 yet, could be mistaken, but I dont think they have arrived yet. But 101 are vendors of the exact same package as cduniverse.com and the rest of the places, 31 tracks, dvd etc.
