Let's not celebrate too hard and turn red in the face.

Nicki Minaj "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded" is the best selling HipHop release of 2012 and it also had a 70% drop in second week sales

A similar Def Jam artists Young Jeezy's album "TM-103" had a second week drop of 72% but nobody cared or felt the need to dedicate a discussion to it because there was no emotional investment in looking for "L'"s associated with him or his label.

WHY all this hate on the Bawse . i wish him success because he worked hard.

Posters on here tend to embody whatever they put in their avatars, so their posts tend to mimic the visual elements they add to their profile. Most times It's easy to predict the direction of their hatred and attention-seeking simply by looking at their profile.

We school em or just ignore em.

thats a lie. second week sales are paid more attention to now than they ever had been in the past.this is due to the belief that labels are buying their own artists albums just so their first week sales will look impressive

jeezy's numbers were criticized
nicki's numbers were criticized
and now ross's numbers are being criticized

nothing has changed

???Bath Salts?

I said nothing about criticism you must have quoted the wrong person or the hangover from last night is in effect.

I specifically said that nobody dedicated a discussion to Jeezys second week sales and nobody cared, if you think I'm wrong then please find a search engine and unearth the Illcommunity thread dedicated to it.

im disputing your claim that nobody cared about jeezy's second week sales. i remember folks talking about it on here and claiming def jam bought a large portion of TM103. it goes this way for most high profile hip hop releases these days. i dont have the patience to go back and look for it but im sure its there

you're claiming posters on here are singling out ross's second week sales decrease when in fact they're treating him no different than any other rapper that has been in that position

are there posters that loves to see ross fail? sure. but every rapper has those critics, some more apparent than others

Don't attempt to dispute my claim just simply drop a link to the AHH thread that was dedicated to Jeezys second-week record sales for "TM103" and prove my statement as being untrue.

I never made any claim about posters "singling out" those were your words my exact words were: "because there was no emotional investment in looking for "L'"s associated with him or his label.

Based on the T/S making multiple Ross-fail threads for GFID I would say that my assessment is correct in regards to his emotional investment in looking for "L"s associated with Ross and his label.

My original statements still stand unless someone can provide the thread that was dedicated to discussing TM103's second week sales being an "L".

Rozay need his groupies to purchase more copies of GFID

Tomorrow is Sunday, Hrap & Gee is going to be passing around the collection plate at their house of worship (Second Missionary Of Rozay Tabernacle) to raise money to buy more copies so his sales can increase

CHUUUUCH! My brotha, I almost forgot tomorrow was the day of Tabernacle. I hope our fundraisers are enough to afford many copies of GFID, a MMG show at our church, and the church's own Maybach. I think all of our good promo will please the Almighty Rozay. I look forward to drinking the blood of Rozay tomorrow on the day of Tabernacle with my fellow brothas!

and may we feast on assortments of seafood and wing stop chicken!

MAY THESE HOES NEVER HOLD US BACK! TABERNACLE!

SiriuslyHiii · August 2012

Ross is ok going into 2013. His relevance was not a risk dropping that last album.

I seee tha cracka protektors are outtttttttt you munkeeeeeeeeeeeeees lol

tab58064 · August 2012

whether some here want to admit it or not 73% in sales after the 1st week is a huge deal when you are at the level that Ross is in the game. Looks like his hardcore fans are the only ones who are interested in his album. Releasing too much shit ain't always a good idea, especially when some of the shit ain't hot or sounds just like the shit that you released a day or so before.

tab58064 · August 2012

All I have to say is that he better expand his music's content and quit rappin' about selling drugs, cars, jewelry, money, pussy, etc. every fucking line. That shit runs out especially when the beat and tempo and the flow patterns are the same or similar from one song to the next.
