[wire28]

Good point. Those Pusha T first week numbers may look real

my nikka push might not do 30 stacks

 

[DeuceZ]

will he have to give 1 chain back now? Glad I'm one of the 45k who copped janelle monaes album. .. It's flames brehs

 

[TLR Is Mental Poison]

Def Jam is REALLY fukkin up nowadays.

The problem is they signed WAAAY too many nikkas in the past two years. When you got artists like Kanye,Rhianna,Justin Beiber,Avicii,Mariah Carey. How are you suppose to all Thocate resources to the mid level stars?

Alot of nikkas get overlooked over in that building.

The urban market is dead breh

15 years ago a nikka like Tity Boi would go plat just for being on TV

Didnt Yeazle only do like 150 this time? They are smart to not invest in shyt thats not gonna sell. I don't think promotion is the problem

 

[NigerianDonDada]

And we thought Big Sean flopped lol

[Da King]

noone even knew that 2 chainz was droppin... i wouldnt have even knew about it if it werent for coli

def jam aint wasting money on promo for these GOOD music nikkas

He's not signed to GOOD Music


But I agree, Def Jam fukking up with dudes flopping left and right, album sales supposed to go up with Sean and 2 bracelets not down

 

[cleanface coney]

The Weekend is corny....even my hoes dont fukk wit dude like that

shyt is going back to the essence breh. Look how big battle rap is getting. Pretty much any non corporate rapper is doing it for not much more than the love. Rap not being a source of income is the best thing that can happen to it.

I mean you know who gave us like 2 decades worth of tropical storms for fukking free... dudes like that are rare.... but then w/all the bullshyt gone they will be way easier to find. I fukk with it. This is a much needed reset. W/these 720 deals who gives a shyt about sales anyway.

And Im not even on some "boom bap renaissance" bullshyt... but politics mean less and less these days... people are starting to demand more musically. I love it

 

[Flawda]

i didnt even know 2 chainz was dropping an album

 

[Lil Bape the PostGod]

2 chainz rushed this album...it shouldnt have even been released til like early to mid next year...

kendrick doin the smart thing...probably wont bring out another album til like late next year...to even more critical acclaim

those weeknd numbers are actually great for him

 

[prophecypro]

Alright seriously though, who knew 2Chainz had a new album out so soon though?

 

[Mr.Black]

back to being tity boi old ass nikka

Cant front. I hear you. ,
