Whores fell in love with him when they heard "Shawty". That image was the reckless/ignorant nikka they wanted. Then he started talking and revealed he was educated which killed it for him. Trinidad James better take heed. I still listen to his 1st 2 albums.

Fixed for ya. The nastiest bytches I knew were huge Plies fans

Yeah, him not making hot music was the problem.

Him being intelligent and a college grad is not a big issue b/c most of his fans werent really on the internet like that.

I disagree, if Warner promoted Webbie or Boosie when he gets home the same way they do MMG they would sell. The ghetto loves that ignorant shyt.

what are you even talking about? :what:


They can't promote them in the same capacity... as they don't have the appeal MMG has.

in all reality, Plies never had mainstream appeal... his radio songs did, but his music as a whole didn't... that's why once those hits ran their course so did those type of fans.

Webbie and Boosie know their lane, and they stay in it.

Why would they promote such rappers to a market that doesn't care for/appreciate their type of rap?... that's counterproductive for both sides.

the person who's more likely to cop that Boosie,Webbie or Plies album is probably the least likely to cop that Wiz Khalifa album or that Wale joint.

Plies isn't exactly hurting for money..and had a good run, right now he's out there making music for the folks that want that type of music.
