^ true would be tight...

i'll look into something.... the problem is that soundscan makes its money by having people subscribe for the information... submitting is free


btw..

"SoundScan is the sales source for the Billboard music charts."

so we *can* use billboard numbers when they publish them

Those sales are pathetic. Promotion was good enough, they had adverts in all the major Magazines (Source etc...), they had promotion on Tharow.com.

Nah, there was hardly any kind of promotion for this album...the radio didn't play it...none of the music channels (MTV, BET) didn't play their videos...so how the fuck would anybody know bout this album? and soundtracks don't really sell well anyways...

Soundscan doesn't work quite like that.

Billboard started the Soundscan system to "accurately" track album sales via the barcode that is on the music units. And you have to register that barcode to Soundscan for a fee.

Also if you subscribe to Billboard like I have, then you only get charted info from all genre's YOU DON"T get access to Soundscan reports. Also Soundscan reports vary in price. If you just want to track your own record in one region is one price, in all regions around the US, it's a bigger price and if you want All access to Soundscan then you are paying SEVERAL thousand dollars per month.

You can't access Soundscan from retail chain stores, that's something that retail chains don't do.
Also Hittman Hits numbers are not close at all, because they don't have access to every retail store (chain and mom and pop) in the country that they can chart sales. Besides, they can't get Soundscan numbers days before SOUNDSCAN gets them, because retailers don't report sales until Tuesday afternoon. So they are NOT CLOSE AT ALL, IF THAT WAS THE CASE, HUNDREDS OF LABELS WOULD CHECK HITS INSTEAD OF PAYING SOUNDSCAN'S STUPID HIGH FEES.

JUST TAKE IT FROM A PERSON WHO HAS HAD SOUNDSCAN INFO AND PAID FOR IT. IT'S NOT SOMETHING YOU CAN GET FROM THE INTERNET.

Actually, I love the row, lol.  I just think this album is dissapointing.

It goes to show, though, also that what label something's on is very important.  Crook is so dope, he oughta be up on 50 cent's level, sales wise, he's fresh like that.  It ain't gonna happen though, because he's on the row.  If he'd bounce to def jam or something, he'd probably be sittin pretty right now.  I'll bet suge gave him a great deal though, he owns his publishing, etc. and he's loyal, so he won't go anywhere.

Another reason for nobody checking for Death row anymore is because of the lacklustre albums they put out over the last 4 years. Chronic 2K was ok because of the DPG songs but Tha Realest & Top Dogg YGD were just bullshit. Snoop and 2pac left so Death row get themselves 2 copies of them! no that is funny. Too Gangsta 4 Radio was the most pathetic CD in history, again Realest was pathetic and a complete fool with his lyrics and Gangsta image that truely isnt him (Just his 2pac side showing) and ATL sounded played and desperate to get back in the game. DPG 2002 was good but the production was nothing great same with Dead Man Walkin and Until The End Of Time. In other words. Death row has died of a slow death and nothing can bring them back. (Unless Dre or Snoop came back  ;)

Agree with all that. I think Death Row was such an important part of West Coast hip-hop five to ten years ago that we've all been willing to give them too many chances in the past years. Like you say, when they keep on letting you down with wack material time after time, there has to come a point where the fans say "Enough."
?
i hate stupid arguments.....but what do you considder wack?
just because you don`t like the new soundtrack its wack?
I know a lot people who consider the last daz cd or snoop cd wack

Suge should hire The neptunes for the first Crooked I single and make a nice coulourful pop video......THats what the FANS what!!

ITSS STILL THE ROWWWWWWWw!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol............and crooked i thinks he's gonna bring the west back, no offense to the dude cause he's tight as fuck and i'll buy his album but it has no chance

do yall think daz will sell more of dpgc without even a major deal than this sells?

Daz sold more before with his last albums. Whats the difference now, if anything I see this selling more than those last albums (RAW & Life I Lead)
