its not like he still cant release it

he said he is slowly catering to top 40 and females and all his first singles are the "harder" songs

but he was struggling with single at first with pyro, love this life and flexin. shyt kinda lower the expectations for the album. He coulda just dropped cruisin and with the right push maybe do like 300k first week, i think

nah i think he was gonna do 180-200K either way....i think people overrate big singles...that just means more itunes downloads of the single...not - more record sales

in my opinion
