Not the thread title nor the thread topic :mjlol:

What is so big about Wu Tang in 2016 besides getting trolled by Martin Shkreli?


absolutely nothing.

that's why this "who's bigger now" argument that wutang fans try to use is so hilarious.

wutang stopped doing things of musical relevance long before bone thugs stopped. but somehow, wutang is more relevant.


so many ducktales.

I fux with you breh but you're forcing the issue.

In fact, none of you Bone fans have offered a single receipt as to how Bone are bigger than Wu in 2016. You've just sat on the sideline and fanboy-shytted on all the receipts we've provided for why Wu > Bone, yet offered none of your own.

Which is why none of you brought up Bone's failure at the million dollar album and some pretended like it never even happened. And that if it were to happen, Bone would outsell Wu. Disingenuous shyt. :thumbsdown:

And leaning on the so-called 'east coast conspiracy' is pathetic. I understand that's bossup's shtick, but I thought you'd be above that. It's 2016 where media resides ONLINE, not magazines in 1995. Which is why lunatic bossup is rambling about Illmatic and throwing whatever vague shyt he can stick on the wall instead of sticking to the topic.

also, :mjlol: at downplaying the fact that a millionaire saw value in a Wu album in 2016, who gained an unprecedented amount of press knowing that he would because that Wu brand is strong as fukk.

Downplay everything, offer up nothing in return. That's the Bone Thugs way


:what:

youre arguing with me about stuff that I don't even care about, and some of this stuff doesn't even make sense.

whose arguing about who is bigger in 2016? neither of them have been relevant in years.

I don't know or care about anybody's million dollar album. and looking at the bolded, it seems like you don't know much about it either. nobody's million dollar album is gonna outsell anybody. theyre not up for sale to the public breh.:laugh: that's why I said in my previous post(if you even read it) that I don't care and didn't follow any of that. I heard bone was doing one, and that's wassup. good for them, but its none of my business. I'm not gonna be able to hear it. lol.

and as far as who would sell more, bone has been outselling wutang thru their entire careers, at every stage of their careers. and they were selling years after wutang completely faded. but let yall tell it, wutang would magically outsell them in 2016.

as for @bigbadbossup2012 hes correct with his overall approach. and mind you, IM FROM PHILLY. that east coast bias chit is no myth. the problem is, bossup goes overboard a lot of the time and I cant cosign half of his specifics in most threads. but I feel his pain. and hes spot on with his overall stance. that bias exists.

and the OP fell back, admitted he was in the wrong, and somewhat changed the topic.

youre a weirdo.

@SirBiatch watch the company you keep, and stay away from this fakkit breh.


There have only been 74 or so artists in the history of hip hop to go plat. Ever. Nobody in hip hop cares about sales. Plenty of scarface albums did absolute shyt in numbers and people hold him in top 5 discussions daily.

Ludacris got damn near got 5 multiplat albums. Is anyone on earth putting him above scarface?

nikkas from the west compare quik to Dre daily. Both legends. Dre probably sold 100 million more records tho. Anybody shytting on quik as an unimportant loser? Nah

Diplomats sold a few multiplat records and plat between all the members. They from the east. They way more recent. They not even considered superstars on this very board, let alone in hip hop

Outkast first album that didn't do numbers at first got 4 1/2 mics in the source.

Em does diamond twice and people won't even put him above any damn body in rap cause he's white so his sales don't count

50 sold diamond worldwide and nobody holds him in high regard

Ross can't even sell shyt and he held in high regard. And jeezy plat every time but once and is barely spoken of unless he right about to drop


a lot of this stuff is you pushing your personal perceptions as fact.

a couple things that really stood out:
outkast always got high ratings in the magazines because they made music that catered towards the critics taste. they actually tried to give 5 mics to their debut, while doggystyle only got 4 mics. luckily, benzino was around to stop that chit.

diplomats aren't that type of east coast group. the journalists tend to be biased in favor of native tongue style stuff, boom bap, and anything that has strong remnants of either. most east coast acts that came about in the 2000s like the diplomats were actually low-balled by the media.

btw, dipset was more genuinely popular than wutang on a national urban scale.

You even tried to rig the tournament for Bone Thugs to win and Wu-tang still won handily. You so fvcking dim that you can't even cheat properly. You're an All around weird ass bozo.

Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
dodging what? yes nas took a long time to go plat vs the others.... does that mean the album was not a classic? this only proves my point that sales mean shyt... nas did not have a single radio joint or famous rapper on any song or single... and it's still regarded as HIS best album... so sales don't mean shyt

Hosts of one of the most legendary hiphop radio stations of all times,being confused about quik's career and other west coast shyt



which proves my point.... quik sold a shytload less than dre and is still considered a legend equal to him on the boards... so sales don't mean shyt

The main topic is what stopped Bone from reaching wu tang's level.
FACT IS THEY ECLIPSED WU TANG BY DOUBLING THEM AT RETAIL

and that'll be 3 for 3 of you proving my point.... even the thread starter said his point was never about sales... but moreso in 2016, what group has the bigger brand and stature in hip hop... and it damn sure ain't bone... why? cause nobody is praising nikkas for selling records... if that were the case, we'd be asking why isn't rakim on hammer's level? rakim is seen as top 5... hammer is a fukking joke.. but he did 20 times what he did at retail... so sales don't mean shyt




now i can't possibly say it anymore or any different... agree to disagree but i'm done

And that regard is due to media praise,fans wasnt on illmatic like that. Also his first single (it aint hard to tell) sampled a classic record (human nature) from the highest selling album of all time THRILLER
