i'm impressed with BEP jumping from 23 to 17 and they'll probably keep rising from the strength of their latest single "let's get it started"
peace

And I don't expect them to leave anytime soon, especially after the performed at the Democratic National Convention.

I think Outkast came out in Sept. or Oct. 2003 so they haven't been on longer.

Post by: AlerG on August 12, 2004, 03:50:34 PM
BEP has gone over 3 times platinum i'm sure of it
outkast has sold about 9.75 mil, and they weren't on the charts as long as BEP either, peace.

Real talk.  FUCK BEP, bringing this girl into the group to sell records and coming up with this pop bullshit.  Their first album was dope with "Falling Up" and "Joints and Jam," but they're gay as fuck now.  I was just in the car with my mom and that bullshit song with Justin Timberlake came on and she was singing along to it.

I HIGHLY doubt that Outkast has sold 9.75 million.

i've done it...back in july they were at 9.6 mil, but you have to keep in mind that it's a double record so really it's sold 4.8 mil, peace.

Post by: Ras Kass' Toothpick on August 13, 2004, 12:20:36 PM
Do people still don't understand?  The soundscan numbers are the actual numbers sold (they don't count doubles as two).  When RIAA certifies the albums, they double the units sold if it's a double CD so one million units will make it double platinium.

If they sold 9.75 million they would be 19 times platinium now.

Now I see why BEP sold out.

they have not sold 19 million by now...they've sold 9.75 or like 4.8 mil, peace.

I heard they're planning to drop both "I'm so fly" and "Warrior 2" as singles.. could do more for the album than "On fire" did..
