How is Wale's new album only projected to sell only 23k-27k? What is he doing wrong?

[King Poetic]

the redskins been trash for way longer than 5 years.

they made the playoffs in 2014 or 15, so they had 1 good year

 

[OnlyInCalifornia]

To be fair, dude could had brought DC Go Go to the mainstream if he would had rolled that style he had on these songs:





Instead, he went the opposite direction with whatever the hell only for rappers like J Cole take his introspective style and succeed with it. Cold world when you can't find your style even though it always been with you from day one.

Those songs are ancient history now though. I was speaking more in present tense as far as his music being generic.

Im with you, he should have stuck to Go Go but he was so desperate to be a star that he let Interscope push him towards a Lady Gaga single.....

He’s been in the game for over 10 years, how many artists that aren’t future hall of fame stay hot for 10 years?

 

[CHERUB]

We don’t fukk with you musically

I think Cudi saying this ruined Wale career

 

[Ziggiy]

Album isn’t bad at all. 3.5 Mics.

Wale just, for some reason doesn’t have that dedicated fanbase like J.Cole or even Big Sean who will ride with him from release to release.

 

[CrimsonTider]

Why are nikkas talking him being “like able” the fukk does that have to do with music? Sound like y’all trying to date that man or something
That on chill song doing numbers so he’s straight regardless

I disagree. “On Chill” is contrived af. It has a sample and Jeremih hook.

Wale is the least important part of that song.

I don’t understand where your going with this stance, hall of fame?

I only remember the hook.

Can't even remember one line of the verses lol

 

[Tribal Outkast]

The shyt people go through to justify hating wale is hilarious. I’m not even a fan like that myself but still. We cool with Chance the rapper out here but Wale sucks? These current rap fans are hilarious.

 

[Code]

This nikka YOUNGBOY moving units and don’t even promote his shyt lol

Hes the king of youtube tho

Rap legends, using a sports analogy since it’s Wale

 

[Will Ross]

those ain’t bad even numbers at all for wale at this point of his career. Wale issue is he never was able to get a white fanbase

He hasn't been hot for 10 years breh.

One of his biggest guest appearances spins wise was on a fukking Waka Flocka song. That song charted higher than any of his own singles.

Not saying that he’s been hot the whole period, I’m saying that he’s been active in the game for 10 years. Us expecting him or any artist of his caliber to be hot for over 10 years or 10 years since since their inception is not reasonable.

I’d also say he was hot until after the Seinfeld album, that album did 100k fw.

 

[WhoShotCha]

Wale just isn't worth listening to like that. Who you turning off to put Wale on for, honestly? Just let that nikka die in peace.
