nobody I talk to in person knows who tha hell this nikka is :mindblown:

tha only song they heard of is "don't like" and that's probably cuz that wuz a radio single with Kanye and some others

I don't think tha mainstream is ready for a viral/youtube artist yet, most people hear about artists break on tha radio still....

and don't bring up gangnam style cuz he had almost a billion views

50K a week means you are not a lone.

No one gives a fukk about him

This. My wife's most ratchet cousin had no idea who he was. Then love Sosa came on and she knew the words. That shows how misc this little nukka is :sadcam:

i was DJ'ing a NYE party the other night in this small college town here in NC, and two different White girls asked me to play "Love Sosa".. :mjpls:

alot of people are familiar with Dont Like, and Love Sosa but i dont think most people even know he has a album out.. might pick up.. might not.. who knows.. outside a few tracks, album still tough..

He sold 50,000 and never had a legit hit single. To put it into perspective Raekwon's "OB4CL2" sold more than that. And Rae obviously isn't on most people's radars in 2013.

If you're selling in that range....50k or less....most people regardless of demographics....white, black, hood, suburban, young, old, whatever, obviously don't know who you are. It is what it is.

I know a few nikkas that have heard about him or heard the Don't Like remix

But thats it

Other than the Coli the only way I had heard of him is from that Worldstar video of the kid going crazy cause he was getting out of jail

And its not like his verses on I don't like made cats wonder :ohhh: who is this cat?

Raekwon is part of one of the biggest groups in hip-hop.. hell.. music.. it was a follow-up to a pretty much undeniable classic.. dude stays on the road, and we gonna act like Wu wasnt headlining Rock The Bells across the country before it dropped..? :dwillhuh:

be realistic.. Raekwon aint some washed-up dude.. you actin like Candyman dropped and sold what Raekwon did..
