YG does 8K the first week

[Stick Up Kid]

YG is a touring artist, he constantly does tours, festivals (3-5k) type venues..

noboy buys or streams no albums anymore unless ur one of the bigger artists

 

[Pure Water]

Isnt he on his own label with distribution from BMG..

Sales don’t matter at this point

However he getting too old to keep pushing the blood talk

I think that’s the difference between west coast bloods/crips and bloods/crips in other parts of the country. It’s a fad or a trend in places like Atlanta. But in LA it’s their culture. I remember nikkas out here was GDs, then lil Wayne got popping and everyone became a blood. shyt is basically a fashion trend in other states.

 

[BrothaZay]

That west coast unity

No such thing

No it’s certain ppls whole identity is the problem


And truth be told it wouldn’t matter if YG actually made good music

Snoop was still crippin on hit records in his 30s

 

[Sir Richard Spirit]

What’s an artist suppose to sell now to be respectable?

Yea, YG does lack a personality outside of gang banging.

 

[King Kai]

Is 8k the new 20k?

 

[Piff Perkins]

To be fair it's a mixtape album. He's dropping his actual album later this year, and this was always the plan.

 

[gho3st]

So this is why he was out doing that walk

It was always a rollout . All these nikkas shytted on Drake could have used a feature to change their life....now Drakes star is dimmed and he def wont help them

His last album that came out in 2022 sold 13k first week. The one before that in 2019 sold 37k first week.

He’s never done over 65k first week.

Yea I remember that being a huge thing when her first came out. I think he from Paramount. He actually used to roll with Crip members in a click/crew he was in although I don’t think he was ever a Crip.

 

[Astroslik]

bytch ass nikka didnt want Drakeo to shine and eventually takeover the westcoast street sound

 

[Sir Richard Spirit]

He’s never done over 65k first week.

I’m still asking what’s respectable? We know 98% of these rappers are doing 100,000 first week.

So what is a good selling album under 100?
