Since He Dropped His Joint, on Koch, Look at the Sales, Around 200 000 Sold worldwide On Koch, thats More than Pussy Cat Dolls and Nelly sold, and they had 2 Million Downloaded Single, grow Up and Nelly had Fegire and Akon on the Singles.
Not Only is He Making Big Money of that Joint, he is also Shaking the West Coast Fanbase, Keeping it alive and Letting Other Mcs know that Idnie is the Way, if You have a Strong Fanbase.
Now We got E40 Dropping, B Real Bubbling..Other Mcs Like Ren, Need to Wake Up too.
I think, if Game dont retire, he Should go On Koch Too, He can Drop a Single and Sell at least 300 000 in USA just off his fanbase regardless of What the Single is.
Coz Right Now, even Thou he is Selling, Fans are just Downloading The Shit, My Life has got Around 700 000 Downloads So Far, And Still Selling, Its Good for the Label and Him, But iF that was on Koch, He would be Making Huge Money.
Even if the Project is Not Big, Cube, Game and Snoop can Drop an album and still sell at least 150 000 Just Of their Name, and Thats $7 Dollars Per Album Sold, Not To Mention Shows and Tours.
I think West Coast needs to go a level up and Go on Koch and Indies, And its not even Rap these days thats not selling, if you look at John Legend Sales, Pink, Robin Thick, Katty Perry, Pussy Cat Dolls.
Nobody is Buying Phisical Copies These days, But What Rappers Like Cube and Game got is a Fanbase that still does and Even if they Drop 5 albums a week, they will still sell roughly the same Ammount.
People Like Ya Boy, Crooked even BWS dudes need to shift to Indie, majors are Not gonna Help them, Even if they Do Make a Huge Single, it will just get Downloaded On I tunes and No CD sales.
Only reason you can sell thse days is if Yuo Do Plies, make Hoe Songs with RNB features or Do Wayne and T.I and really Do QAuality But Gay Shit.
Indie Is the Way, Hopefully Game Puts BWS on Koch, and If he Pushes Clyde,no matter what Single and Video Is, He can Push at least 200 000, and thats a Buig Success on Indie.

Cube is not on Koch. He has a distribution deal with Virgin. But I definitely hear what you are saying as far as more peeps should look into going the indie route.
