this sold like sh-t b/c it's more of the same.

ghost & sheek aren't growing with their audience.

nas just put out a cd of grown man music. why can't ghost?

why would i want to listen to wu block, which is like a 3.5/5, when i can listen to 5/5 "sellin' coke" albums like cuban linx, ironman, cuban linx 2 & fishscale? they're competing with themselves.

Co sign. Have you notice D Block's fanbase isn't increasing as time passes by? You hear Nas and Jay's names from the youngins, but never D-Block.

The internet fukked up the old industry practices and forces people to work harder and use a little bit more creativity.

actually major label oversaturation of low quality product.
With payola induced sales and bds.
Is what made the internet pirating become the major supply chain for music.
If major labels did not fake jax...
Putting out inferior products that oversaturated the market with payola and over processed pr.
We would not be where we are.

the labels are why,...
Albums do not sell, not the internet.
The labels destroyed the value of their industry.
The fans and consumers just went tye way of technology.
To offset the lack of overall quality.
It just so happened the internet and technology was able to feed the supply and demand.

The industry cosigning and overprocessing artist with no real talent.
Who also signed piss poor deals,..
Where the label could gouge a larger profit.
are the reason why everything is the way things are.

That too. Too much music and too few of them contain quality.

Why nikkas care what Ghost and them sell, when even they don't give a shyt? They pocket the label money, don't shoot any videos, barely do any promotion, and then bomb. They still got the check so what do they care?

Problem is that you can only do that so many times before fans recognize it, and stop paying attention. Wu Block was never gonna sell well, but they could have done 20-30k first week with a bit of effort. IE get your homie from the hood to shoot a dope video, get some nice cameos, buy a Harry Fraud beat, do a collab with a rapper nikkas are checking for (Freddie Gibbs, Action Bronson...).

Seems like only Rae has any business sense. These nikkas sitting around doing nothing while Rae is caking off his own label, making moves with Kanye, making connects with dope producers, having a real presence on Twitter, etc. Everyone else in the Wu except RZA and Rae are looking for a handout.
:flabbynsick::ufdup:

This is partially true. Ghost did a lot of work in the early 2000s only to have low sales (with the exception of fish scale :salute:). I think he just got tired of the bullshyt.

And, peole called Life A Good with over 300,000 units pushed a flop. :childplease:

Who is that in your AVI?
