How wasn't it? He should have stayed on his wave. WATTBA was a huge step down for him quality wise.
No it wasn't it was the same quality as all his other shyt. Its impossible to be a future fan and not like that tape.

Plus its his highest selling album of his career by a mile.

That was a perfect career move.

He gave out 3 free tapes of music.WATTBA was an ability to capitalize off of his hard work and expand his fanbase

It was nowhere near the same quality :dahell:

Capitalizing would have been releasing another solo tape instead of letting Drake ride and kill his wave. I'm one of the few people who believe he hasn't peaked.

You don't understand. Another solo tape would not have sold what WATTBA sold.

WATTBA more than doubled DS2 sales.

quality is an opinion.

Quality is not an opinion, preference is an opinion.

And it's not all about sales. It's about growth. Those aren't his sales, those are sales he and Drake sold.

If selling records is your goal, then he should
Have kept doing what he was doing.

Just sold 350 first week, and before he went pop he enjoyed a slow climb himself. Can't let people ride the wave.

He can do those numbers on his own with the right work

Im not sure what you are talking about?

He has been touring nonstop this year

He aint doing enough relative to his buzz. Somebody like Action Bronson has eaten more here (UK) and Future is a much bigger artist.
Did my googles and he did a mini venue when other rappers as big as him doing arenas in europe

Future isn't as big as you think. Who is Action Bronson?

He's not a superstar... yet(?)

There's a very good chance that this is the hottest Future will ever be. Rap is not pop music.

There are no slow climbs in rap you have strike while the irons hot.

2chainz was in Future's position 2011-2012 and now he's cold

Future is made for the mainstream though. He always was. Future's music makes people want to move and dance. Doesn't just get by on being hot. I realized that myself.

I agree that doesn't mean he will ever become a superstar like Cole or Drake
Cole is an example of a slow grind himself. Never did any sellout shyt. Never went pop, just had a nice slow grind and built his fanbase year by year and now he's selling out the garden. Perfect example.
