breh, he basically put 3 of his mixtapes together on some triple disc shyt. so of course, it's not gonna take much for him to go platnium. i DOUBT dude is going to blow up. isn't his album supposed to be out already? he doesn't have star value and his image is NOT marketable. how is his label supposed to market his fiendish looking ass.

:hmm:

Selling more than Miguel first week. Abel is doing fine :yes:

If he'd let Quincy Jones produce an entire album, layer his vocals and tweek his octives a little bit, you would swear it was Michael.

If dude did traditional R&B instead of that abstract shyt he's doing now he would be platinum by now. Dude has the voice to be big in R&B but he's stuck on abstract music and videos that stoners and weirdo's seem to gravitate to. He's got the vocals but he'll never move major units as long as he's on that weird shyt. He has a niche but like all niche genre's you only get a small fraction of the market share.

FYI he sold more first week than Miguel.

Miguel doesn't move units. Lyfe Jennings first album sold more than both Miguel albums.

When was this? Probably around the same time even Young Buck was going plat :pachaha: We in 2013.
Miguel is pretty much the most popular, truly talented rnb niqqa along with frank. Frank had the homo boost and only sold like 20k more 1st week.

You can't be too big of an R&B artist if only the women fukk with you. Kells will always be the king because men and women fukked with his music. Miguel just got the hoes and queers.

It takes a man to admit when he was wrong. I was wrong. Dude is major and did it his way :ehh:
Nah, you were right. According to the OP anyway. He always had the voice. Switched up to more Traditional RnB/Pop and he got even bigger.

Can't Feel My Face and "Earned It" don't sound like OG Abel songs. You were right.
