Im not a fan of keef at all, but where do you live that he isnt on the radio?

I've seen the Mediabase numbers breh. The remix for "I Don't Like" was a radio hit, but on a national scale, nothing else has gotten momentum outside of late night mix shows and such.

EDIT: And just to be sure, I looked up WGCI (Chicago's biggest rap station) and "Love Sosa" is #21 on their spins with 22 spins for the week, down from 40 the week before. So he's not even on the radio that much in his home town.

That said, Louisville is his biggest market. Go figure.

That shyt wasn't even a radio hit...

It didn't chart inside the Top 40 of the Hot100... it hovered in the 70's or 80's then moved backwards... that's not a hit...

Nobody sells anymore, everyone downloads, sales discussions should've ended years ago.

Did anyone even expect him to really sell tho? Love it or hate it, he was one of the biggest names in Hip-Hop this year. But no matter what anyone on here tries to say, his music was not the reason for his popularity. It "worked", but by proximity only, cause of the 3Hunna shyt spectacle. Thats what separated him from being another WSHH joke.

His image is the best and only thing he has going for him. Some people love the image and want to see him win, others despise it and hate what it represents. But its too ridiculous to NOT have an opinion on. Thats why it works...to a degree. He'll never sell more than he just did, but he could become more "popular"

It aint like his music is too cryptic or abstract for the mainstream to embrace...Once you see a picture of dude or hear him speak, you know what time it is. I dont think most people want to put down money for that type of thing anymore, but they'll "tune in" to the fukkery without blinking an eye and have an "opinion" on it. So as long as he continues to do what he does on Instagram/Twitter, people will talk about him at the least

How do you sell 50K on a major label like Interscope?

Even :50cent: will sell more than that if he was to drop a blank CD and no one is checking for him!!!!
