Doc 2 did numbers
Doc 1:
The album debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200chart, selling 586,000 copies in the first week.[38] The album has since sold over 2.5 million units in the United States
Doc's Advocate:
The album sold 358,000 copies in its first week and as of April 2008 has sold 969,000 copies in the United States according to Nielsen Soundscan.
Doc 2:
To date the album has sold over 300,000 copies in pure album sales alone.
Doc 1 sold more in 3-4 days than Doc 2 has sold in total, breh. He's been on a steady decline since the first album
We really comparing 2016 album sales market to 2000's now?

Ima let you cook, dawg. I dont give a fukk about Game and neither does the general population. If you dont want to compare sales, that's fair. Compare radio chart positions for singles and album chart positions then. Even if everyone's sales fell off, they should in theory fall off at the same rate, so Game's #1 album in 2005 would be the same as a #1 album every year he dropped. Same for his radio chart positions. If he is as relevant today as he was in 2005, his singles positions should be comparable
He's definitely not as big, that's not arguable. But still be relevant, musically, 10 years is better than 99% of rappers careers
E-40 is pretty much the ideal answer. AZ and WC are runner ups. What they all have in common is they mind their business, have tact and make intelligent moves without doing too much. But E-40 and WC the type you cross them they'll press you with all force.
WC stayed out of the Westside Connection and Cypress Hill beef being that he was cool with both parties. The mature thing to do, and Ice Cube and Mack 10 probably had no choice to respect it, being that WC is the most street out of all of them. Ice Cube wouldnt dare come at WC on that "you not down with us?" bullshyt.
Also, E-40 dissed AZ over him thinking AZ dissed him in a magazine but later apologized when he realized it was actually the magazine that took AZ's word out of context. Smart, stand up move by E-40's part, and smart move by AZ by never even acknowledging it. It was an small misunderstanding that was smoothly diffused by open-mindedness, tact, and a moment of clarity.
All stand up guys

fukk the thread, I don't like how nikkas bash NY just cause we have over the line confidence in ourselves. Somebody always got NY dikk in they mouth
there are a few rappers that have no L's. he problem is most rappers are either too big headed for their own good, dont know how to mind their business, disrespectful, have no code, aren't smart or business savvy, play checkers when they should be playing chess, etc. generally with rappers, too much importance is placed in their surface image (designer clothing, jewelry, cars, house) and not in their character

strictly talking street rappers i gotta go with 50 cent
Jadakiss pulled his entire card with "Checkmate"
Supreme had him shot 9 times
Animal Ambition went plastic after he used to joke on rappers about their sales
J Prince gave him static in Houston
Jimmy Iovine made sure he can never put another album out on Interscope after 50 said "Jimmy Iovine aint my boss"
Tommy Knocks
retired
Big Boi and E40 are the kinda dudes that are just waaaaay too clever and aware to ever hold an L.
