Rotton Apple went Gold sold 1,350,000 world wide T.O.S RIAA Cert Gold sold 1,500,000 world wide From 2006-2009 he released 7 mixtapes and had two gold albums one with G unit ????? in 2009/2010 he had resurgence with HFM2..

2003 x2 Platinum
2004 Platinum/Grammy Nomiated
2005 - Nothing released still hot
2006 - Gold 1.3 mill sold
2007 Nothing
2008 T.O.S Gold 1.5Mil sold
2009/10 HFM2 Promo starts and releases

Not mentioning all his mixtapes from 2003-20010 he was succesful out there that whole time the expectation can't be Platinum or better for you to be hot thats unrealistic for a rapper maybe a pop star but not rap back before 2010. ...Major tours songs with Em produced by Dre mixed in too.

If Gold is a flop then I will flop all day.
:unimpressed: This is shyt you can easily look up, I don't know why you're making up numbers.

Went platinum in 04 had a gold single off that album and nothing until beamer Benz or Bentley. Expectation that he had to be platinum or better, he wasn't even gold. You think interscope dropped them for no reason?

Yeah but nobody is talking about Canada when they talk gold and platinum.

TOS RIAA GOLD that counts right? 1.5 mill sold...np good? its not 2x Platinum like Beg for mercy but that not a flop in rap.

Rotten Apple 1.35 mill sold.. Gold Canada and #6 canadian Albums (Billboard) doesn't acount ...ok but US#1 Billboard rap and US#1 Billboard Hiphop and US#6 Billboard 200 counts...

If we going by facts and not ruling out this or that since 2003 Banks has had 4 Gold or better albums (solo and group) and HFM2 had Beamer Benz went Gold...This about to be his 5th Gold+ album...Name 5 people from 2003 #1 on pre order in the past few years?

The above is all facts and one prediction...

So how much y’all think this sellin? I say 10-20k
I don't even understand the point of talking sales in 2021. No music really sells, and that's not even how 90% of the artists out there make any money. I'm not even trying to be a smart ass. I truly don't know why it's even discussed. There's not even a strong way to measurte sales today to sales in the 1990's 2000's.

For the millionth time, tos didn't go gold. Again, you can look that up. He has 2 gold or better albums and 2 good singles.

How is FNO not higher than Rotten Apple? :dead:

This the best song on HH3, an album of his which doesn't even deserve to be mentioned with his best, if we're being honest.





Idk why I always saw this, and songs like these as subs to 50 :wow:










Same. Was going through peaks and valleys at the time. But the "HOH" tracks, and House Pride used to bring me right back :wow:


FNO is Lloyd Banks at his peak, with his new style. It wasn't until I heard House Pride that I realized he was really unlocking new flows and not just a "mixtape rapper" anymore.

Nah charge it to the game and repetition are up but ya fno is banks at his best
