Why did Migos album brick ?

[Big Mel]

Because they make awful music and their fans are fickle and moved back to Future?

 

[Sauce Dab]

1. Offset being arrested
2. 300 not knowing what they're doing
3. No Label 2 should've been the album

It's time for them to go back to the drawing board and take a hard look at themselves

You don't understand how music works.

you think people are buying albums for those songs?

Theres is nothing you can point to and say "this is why people buy music in 2015"

Ok young breh. I do understand music very well. I'm saying you package hits onto an album to sell 1 collective peice of music, tour and sell merch. They had hits accross the mixtapes but should have consolidated the old hit records + new hit records (that are climbing up billboard charts + getting added to rotation) on 1 single album. Otherwise they shouldn't have released an album at all until they exhausted their mixtape route.

It's a city of urban sprawl, so it's not uncommon for someone living OTP (outside the perimeter) to still rep and associate heavily with Atlanta. Stone Mountain, Riverdale, Jonesboro, lotta yalls favorite rappers were OTP lowkey.

But in Migos' case, you not exactly wrong

They grew up on the north side in Gwinnett, which is definitely less 'connected' to the actual city than the southside is

fukk that. I grew up in the skreets and trenches of the REAL Atlanta. Not College Park, East Point, Douglasville, Riverdale... none of that shyt. They're profiting off fraudulent bullshyt.

 

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

Big mistake was not having all of these on there

Fight Night, Versace, Hannah Montana, Freak No More, Ounces, Handsome & Wealthy

Coulda just dialled it in but they left all the hits off the album

The real street rap fanbase that loves trap music doesn't buy it...

Look how long it took future to break mainstream with all his hits and Gucci couldn't move albums like that either. Thuga too. That's why rappers go pop or polish up their sound. These guys can sell singles but moving an album is a whole other thing.

That's pretty sad that Migos album flopped because that cd was lowkey a solid album.

Yeah Pastor Troy was from Augusta but still claimed Atlanta.

 

[GoonbergScandal]

1.It wasn't good...strayed away from their original sound.

2.Timing..no single..in the middle of catching those gun chargers...no Offset...and Future is scorching their lane right now.

Not a coincidence they're dropping a tape in a couple weeks to catch a spark again.

Not true. Their album sounded exactly like their mixtapes. Hell, their debut album was better than that bullshyt mixtape they dropped with Rich the Kid.

 

[Pegasus Jackson]

He was from College Park and went to College in Augusta.

 

[Dank Hill]

He was from College Park and went to College in Augusta.

But people still try to tell us clayco folk we cant claim atl too so

 

[Truth200]

Their fanbase is majority poor black folk.

You forgot to add "uneducated"....

 

[Axum Ezana]

they let drake ride the wave(when they didn't need him), n he made them obsolete .

 

[360dagod]

They ran outta creative gas..

 

[GoonbergScandal]

they didn't drop at the peak of their buzz last summer.

I agree with this, if they woulda dropped this same exact album last year, the shyt woulda easily moved units.

 

[OnlyInCalifornia]

They dropped the album after the hit songs had ran their course and then didn't bother to add some of them.

One Time is a dope song tho IMO.
