What's The Soundscan Figures For Kurupts 3 Major Label Albums? And Daz's RRGB?

[Michael]

^^^I see the Streetz everywhere in Northern Cali tho...And Streetz sold plenty just off "who ride wit us" just like "we can freak it" from Kuruptiion

huh, that's strange


'cause I'm not exaggerating, I swear I haven't seen it ever in a store in years

its like the only kurupt album i own and i bought it in ireland lol

[notorious^q8I]

kuruption sold lik e300 k but cause it was a double disc.... it went gold.. 600 k
streetz is a mutha sold 800 k or slightly more but didnt go plat
space boogie went gold i think it reached 600 k am not sure

daz rrgb sold 800 k with 1 single and weak promo... raw sold 300 k along with dpg second album
this is the life i lead sold 70-100 k indie, which is good i guess

[WestCoasta]

RAW @ 300K is very good, that shit was independent, when independent hustling wasn't too popular as well

["THE" MoSav]

This Life I lead did 70-100 K?? Wow, I thought it was a good cd BUT NO PROMOTION and right i mean right after that he did DPGC U KNOW WHAT IM THROWIN UP and that one did at least 60 K

[King Tech Quadafi]

estimate...

kuruption- maybe like 600 k
streets- just gold...
space boogie- barely gold

daz- ive heard anywhere from 300-700 k

I'm pretty sure "Kuruption!", "Streetz iz a mutha", and "Retaltiation, Revenge, and Get Back" have at least gone gold.  I heard 800,000 for Daz's album, though I don't think that number is accurate

I wonder how much he made per cd because if he made the $10 per he claimed he was making, a cool $3 million

That was when Death Row resembled a normal label.  Most labels buyback their own albums to inflate the numbers.  A recent example is Tony Yayo's album.  G-Unit Records bought about 120,000 copies back to bump it close to gold

but if as snoop said they buy back, the public dosent know its a failure they think ok it went gold but then the label internaly knows it flopped. right?

pretty much...the music and movie business do it all the time, so it shouldn't be much of a surprise.

Lemme use "Larry The Cable Guy Health Inspector" for example.  It flopped at the theatres however since it's coming out on DVD, the studio is going to try to push sales to make up some of the money.  Now, this movie will probably be priced somewhere in the $14-$20 range since it's a new DVD and will be fully stocked at a place like Best Buy.  Since in most markets he's not going to sell, the price will drop on the DVD to probably around $10-$14 after a couple weeks.  Within a month it might be under $10.  Best Buy is now stuck with this DVD that nobody will buy, and they need to make room for a new DVD that will sell, thus the studio will buy back a certain amount of copies to 1) inflate their numbers and 2) pay back Best Buy for carrying that many DVD's.

Where do you go for soundscan figures?
