it took nas 7 years to sell the amount of records carter 3 and carter 4 sold in one week :dead:

why release an anniversary album of an album that flopped so bad when it first came out? :mjlol:
Let these naS nikkaz tell it, when this embarrassment of an album dropped everyone carpooled to the record store and bought every copy and all down the streets all you could hear is NYSOM blasting out of every Ford Escort and nikkaz chanting "monkey rhythm" in unison.

What a terrible group of stans

sales only matter when other artists flop... when nas flops it doesnt matter because hes a real hip-hop artist :mjlol:

:russ: nikkas getting heated cause Nas (one of the most praised people on this site) isn't getting his jock rode.
Anyone else sells a small amount and they get washed, he should be held to the same standard regardless of the circumstances.

How is posting #facts hating? Out of all the MILLIONS and MILLIONS of hip hop fans in the US only a few thousand went out and copped this shyt. You can put lipstick on a pig but....

MC hammer sold more than biggie, so is he better than biggie ?

that illmatic didn't sell well was a failure but illmatic achieved a thing that a few if none other hip hop or even other genra album did. It bacame a bible a reference and a benchmark. None other album have books dedicated to it, a movie/documentary, two remakes album and the pride of being performed at the kennedy center backed by the nso. 20 years later it still talked about, how about you live guy who sold more but disapeared in hip hop limbs ?
