work those singles, keep dropping visuals periodically and continue pushing the album long after its in stores

a lot of rappers think self-promo is done after the album is in stores and they begin to look forward to the next project instead of focusing on the current album

back to Rozay, if his first week is in the range of 150 - 250k then he needs to keep pushing and pushing if he wants to add a platinum plaq to his resume and shake off that perception of being a "gold artist"

I think its more impressive that he has this kinda of presence in rap without a platinum plaque. I say focus on going gold and making money other ways off the music. Ross is showing how insignificant a platinum plaque is to success right now.

Also starting this year if you haven't already seen platinum at some point in ur career then its a good chance u will never see it. It'll be the same 5 names going plat in hiphop, i Dont think anyone else will sell that much anymore

He can see one but it's gonna be tough he has to make sure to drop videos for the standout songs like Sixteen, Maybach Music IV, and Triple Beam Dreams

gold artist plat artist dont matter. these rap nikkaz need to go double platinum so they can be renowned "multi platinum artist". havent heard of one of those in a while. Is ti wayne double plat artist? Ross gon be goood collectiviely with a catalog so fukk it theyll add up. But damn I thought deeper then rap was big
