So Jay goes double platinum with half the sales from Samsung and its cool but Ye goes platinum with half the sale from Google and the reaction is . Come on guys yall can't be moving the goalposts like that.

It's not even the same deal or setup.....

But Jay-z took more shyt for it than Kanye has. People just don't seem to care all that much.

I never thought Ye' would stoop down to the levels of corniness exhibited by the camel, but then again "big bro."

Big props to Kanye. I enjoyed the album. However he needs to sit his ass down somewhere and stop embarrassing himself every week other day.

Yea Jay-z's was a marketing plan/joint deal with Samsung to promote their phones which like you said they purchased something.

Kanye got a free ride from Google, much like Busta Rhymes did.

All that attention whoring paid dividends.

You know damn well when them sales first came back def jam said ''you in the red nikka, you better get out there and work''

Kanye went plat cause they shipped a million copies. he still hasn't moved more units than J. Cole. Def Jam always does this. His totals still at 633k units moved.

thats not more than Cole?

Yeezy at 633k sold, Cole's at like 650k sold.

But Def Jam shipped 1 mil and filed with the RIAA and got that approval for Yeezus, so it's "platinum".
