Lamar pushing 9k a week and dropping, iovine may need to step in and buy a few copies to get him that platinum plaque

 

[MINT]

kendrick released a video for his single 2 days ago, it will boost his sales for next week, without a doubt

maybe you don't know it but interscope didn't support kendrick before he went gold.
TDE is doing all the promo with aftermath, the deal is that interscope was supposed to distribute copies, nothing more but they realized that kednrick had the potential to sell and they offered him a 3rd world tour.

at LL doing those numbers, album was dope.

And nikkas want T.I to go indie?

Imagine if LL was still on Def Jam... nikka might still be going damn near gold at least.

 

[Fmju]

Talib sold 9.9k outta 10k this week

So he sold 100 copies first week?

Or did they round it up?

LL c00n'd himself out of my support. I generally always support living legends but not on this one....
