Yes of alot of artist who are ten years+ in the music biz do big #'s still...dont act all dumb about shyt like that....
Yea and a lot of people are billionaires, but I can nearly mention any artist that came out in the early late 2000s, early 2000s and was doing big numbers among this new generation. (in rock, rnb, pop and hiphop). Rock is like the biggest genre and they've got few group that have done 100k in modern times (like the past 5 years). Probably super shytty bands like Muse, The black keys, Coldplay (if they are considered rock), Foo fighters, Green day and if they are lucky perhaps my Chemical Romance, fob and probably not too many more. I think U2 might've managed to move 100k on the dot and they do tours that gross over half a billion bucks.
Sales are down, I don't know why the fukk anyone would think that Game out of nowhere could go indie and all of a sudden in the midst of streaming and shyt do even more than he did last time, do as much as the b-league stars in Future, Big Sean and on.. Nah.
