I was right, I guessed 10-15k, not bad it really coulda been worse. How much money you think they will make each for doin this album? 100k each atleast?

No way man, lets say they make about $5 for every album sold, they sell 10000 copies thats only 50k, split 75/25 with Quik taking the big chunk cos he produced it. That's fuck all revenue, and their singles aren't really getting any play so there's no revenue from that

Add another sale to that. I've been listening to "Do U know" the past 2 nights now, and love it. It's not typical DJ Quik signature style I'd love to see on him albums - you all know what I mean - Rhythm-alism, Balance & Options, but that track is modern, and has that summer vibe to it, and because of that track alone, I copped this - and that's after I heard the initial track of 9 times outta 10 - WHICH I HATED, not for the fact it sucked, but for the fact it belittled my expectations for a Quik/Kurupt collab, and displayed zero possibilities of what I expected or hoped for, for a DJ Quik production. I've heard the "Do U Know" track, and "The appeal", which I must say shows signs of his older style, that laid back style. After listening to these 2 songs a few times, it's made me wanna cop this, and finalize my collection of Quik albums
