[CrimsonTider]

So many crabs in a barrel


The system has pimped artist since the very beginning but y'all in here looking down on the artist pimping the system

It is kind of weird that an album full of "seeing the bigger picture" and being selfless Jay z would still need a plat plaque for reassurance

I'm at the same Drake stans that had no problem with "Hotline Bling" padding the numbers of "Views" coming in here talking about this isn't right.

Fred.

No matter how many times you post this it will neve be correct.

Future added a platinum song to HNDRXX the albums is sitting at like 300k sold

Remy and Joe added a 2 times plat song to their album and sold 15k the first week

Future added Wicked to EVOL and EVOL only went gold

fishy as fukk sprint had to buy 900,000 copies

So if 900,000 copies were bought by Sprint....doesn't that mean 900,000 copies were SOLD?

Does the coli not understand the most rudimentary practices of business and supply and demand? At the end of the day the albums got bought. What's fishy about it?

Jay is really the true Plug for his own music. He's the connect so he can sell a huge portion of his product to one major distribution channel and then they use his product for further promotion and customer retention/acquisition. Only bozos consider this cheating. This is playing it smart in the new era of streaming.

platinum plaque picture was taken before the album was even released

Jay should've went full troll and put the picture out on Thursday

Photo of Jay-Z With ‘4:44’ Platinum Plaque Award Was Taken Before Album Was Released

How is that a subtle shot at Drake? It's pretty much a shot at anyone not named Jay Z. It's really not a shot as much as it is a fact. No other Hip Hop artist can say all they have 13 platinum albums.

He's lucky they were shot...thats all. Because Jay Z wouldn't be who he is if Christopher Wallace was alive.

Man shut the fukk up. Big been dead 20 years and nikkas still wanna talk about hypothetical outcomes of what would have been if another nikka didn't die. You sound stupid as fukk

 

[Cadillac]

Undeniable. This man was nothing in 96 and 97. Lol.

 

[Mr.Silver]

y'all pretty much hatin him for bein his own boss

he got his own product, distributor, and he owns both

no middle man

 

[Him]

Better hope Drizzy ain't doing albums for another 10-15 years because he'll claim that record too.

 

[vdfebduderocks]

Some of y'all have forgotten that Jay's not a businessman, he's a "business, man."

Been like that since before 1996.

This was a genius business decision. Can't hate on that. Hopefully your favorite rappers will one day learn the nuances of the business, but that will require cutting back on the lean, weed, gas, etc.
