"In related news, Snoop Dogg's Doggystyle/MCA Records compilation, Welcome To Tha House Vol. 1, is currently Number 96 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. The set has sold more than 120,000 copies since its release." (launch)

That's as much as Cormega's First album, the realness, and he an underground cat. Damm, u gotta remember peeps wont see it as a snoop album tho, more of a compilation so they won't think it's that good. personally i think it's class

Its pretty sad for the doggystyle all stars,not for snoop (is rich as a muthafucka).

sales don't equal quality anyway...

For one times sake, Myrealname is right.

sales don't say everything but if the shit isn't that great it isn't gonna sell at all, and this looks like the case...i personally think that noone really cares about the all stars, and the title is overrated, there are allstars based on what...cause they are peeps with snoop...i didn't buy the album either, there hasn't been a stand out single, promotion, or anything that stands out that would make me consider buying it...i think that's why that album isn't gold, working on platinum right now...
sales don't mean everything, but if you have quality it's going to leave the shelves, so theres two ways at looking at the sales bit...
peace.

Its not a good debut!

i bought it!!

Look at how Murder Inc's album is doing right now. Ja Rule and Ashanti are 2 of the top 5 biggest artists in the world..yet the Murder Inc album has been a HUGE bomb despite having "I wanna be your chick" on there.
Bottom line--
People dont like "compilations"--thats why Nelly and Eminem are superstars..but Lunatics struggled to go platinum and D-12 is selling 1/5 of what Em's albums do. If you folks followed the industry none of this stuff would be remotely surprising. The low sales of this album (which seem right on the money to me) are because its a compilation which equals a mixed bag--always. However, all that I care about is that I bump this ish constantly and even my non rap fans dig it.
Chutch...

King where do u live? Since u say your non rap fan friends like it?
-
well in this case sales do equal quality...this album is a huge dissapointment in quality and the sales how that...
-
tha album is weak it had about 3 decent tracks poor sales for a mainstream album just poor :-/
-
the video for the first single fucked the album if the video was better and had Snoop rappin on it ...it would sell more
-
Snoop wanted to go underground

Snoop wanted to go underground
120.000 copies for an underground release is good,but unfortunately this album is out for a major.
-
I think Unfucwitable alone makes the album worth buyin'.
-
He didnt want the main stream just the real FANS!
-
I think it's a good album. Didn't the wash just sell a little bit more than this, anyways? I like the Rage track, "Falling Star" is great, the track "Trouble" towards the end is great, all the RBX tracks are tight, "Tell it like it is" "Raised on the Side" there's a lot of good tracks on it.

According to Billboard, The Wash soundtrack ended up going gold.

I was bored looking at old threads.and damn how times have changed people laughing about only selling 120000.nowadays that's considering a success for a solo album let alone a compilation
