Its always been a thing since Hip Hop became a provable financial quantity. Jay-Z didn’t spit “I sold what your whole album sold in my first week” at Mobb Deep just for the hell of it.

thank you....



pac was talking numbers in 96

Is Jack Boys 2 worth the listen? I saved one song from the last project, which is why I ask.

if youre in the whip or partying yes

outside of that ehhhh

I didnt mean to somehow say numbers havent always been manipulated and stuff...of course they always have but 70%of your album numbers coming from bundles??? thats insane thats not remotly a real number

Physical media is basically a novelty product for collectors and super fans nowadays. I dont see how bundling shirts and shyt with albums to encourage people to buy a physical copy is a problem.


I dont think its any more manipulative than having songs added to every playlist regardless of genre to force people to listen.


I do agree that Travis numbers always seem to lean heavily towards bundles, more than any other artists probably.

Yeah numbers always been manipulated but it's faker now than ever. No denying that. This the only era where this many "hot" artists had to cancel or postpone tours because they can't sell tickets.

Meanwhile "washed" vets that can barely do "20,000" first week still selling out arenas.

Yeah i dont know what's up with his numbers in particular. I believe he's the reason they changed the rules for bundling so I'm sure he's doing something shady to get those numbers.
