I mean on some real shyt, yo is putting out some official music but that shyt gets very little to no love. Im convinced he could release get rich or die tryin for the first time all over again and at his current status he wouldnt sell over 200 thousand copies. Why is this? How did he get to this point?

He went wrong by pickin fights wit bums.

Dude was at the top of the mountain and instead of actin like he belonged there, he was still lookin for plebs to beef wit. And not just plebs, but plebs who were lyrically better than he was. He had absolutely nothing to gain by pickin a fight with Jadakiss. And not only that but once Game joined the fun it was over.

Then he acts like he's still the shyt even though his star was clearly fading, challenges Kanye to a sales showdown... and loses.

He played HIMSELF.

It was definitely perceived that he was doing bad with those flopped singles prior to BISD.

But they actually weren't even flops. "Get Up" was No. 44 on Billboard, "Get It In" was No. 53 and they both went hard. Interscope fukked around and waited for the "BIG HIT" that never came.
