According to Billboard, Ross's 5 #1 albums that sell around Gold everytime, it's a win.

I'd be interested to see who's number two each of those weeks. Just like Jay-Z he's never gone against anyone substantial

No, what's

is people saying "Ross flopped" and "Ross ain't making no impact", yet there's an article in this thread that says otherwise. It's funny that people will run with speculation and rumors so long as it suits their opinion, but when someone puts up facts, it's crickets.

Act like Pharrell wasn't competition for Ross when he had a #1 hit and an Oscar performance right before his album dropped. Trilla faced competition from Snoop Dogg's Ego Trippin' which had "Sensual Seduction" (which was huge at the time). As for the rest of Ross's albums, I don't know who dropped on the date b/c I don't recall the exact release dates.

Read the article. This isn't something made up. It's an article from Billboard, which is a credible source.

I'm not clicking the article because I'm almost sure it's only discussing him having 5 # 1s

I'm talking about impact homie

When has ross changed the game up?
What impact has he had on the rap game?

Only one I can think of, is him holding the door for more MC Gusto's

Curly stans mad as fukk

This niqqa just tries to drop on a date when no heavy hitters are dropping. Bunch of number 1s but not really moving major units

He dropped the same week as Pharrell

He dropped the Dynasty the same day as Stankonia

 

[Pimp]

That isn't something to brag about, I wish J would understand that too.

U could simply drop it on a date nobody else is dropping on.

I still believe Stankonia sold more but def jam bought up the rest of the CDs. Def jam was known for the soundscan trick.
