Son he was an indie artist, getting radio spins with multiple songs (Your Style, All About the Money, Doo Doo), was on XXL Freshman of the year, got features from everyone from Diddy to Ross to T.I. to 50 Cent, deal with Adidas, was on Billboards in NYC. Like I said you don't have to like him or his music but to act like he wasn't making major moves an an indie artist is false and just hating. There wasn't many TRULY independent artists doing as well as him.

He was doing multiple shows/walk thrus a week getting 5-10 bands a pop. He was doing extremely well.

:ehh:

I'm still not convinced.

How the hell you get:

  • Numerous high profile features
  • Radio spins in your own city (cause he fasho was not getting spins anywhere else...)
  • XXL freshman feature
  • ADIDAS sponsorship
And still sell less than 10,000 copies on your debut album?

Troy did less than 5k first week, with only 30 of those sales actually being physical copies being purchased. That's Kreayshawn level bad....

All your post really told me is that someone was really trying to get the masses to like Troy. Be it that Troy is independent and he's bankrolling his own career, or he's got some sort of label backing him, but his musical career has certainly been a failure thus far.
