How Magna Carta Holy Grail really grew on me and what it says about Jay's current status

[nujerz84]

That Shipments shit is foolish. He sold 630K yet has a platinum plaque so folks thinks he sold a million.

 

[metal face terrorist]

Foh? What is that? U little lazy heffa.

 

[32DaysOfInfiniti]

i thought it was decent, and okay musically... With his themes and lyrical content though its a bit of a stretch to call it "good" of any sorts

I will say, for someone in any genre, to be 40 and still generating as much popularity as this man, is certainly Elvis status

 

[StoneColdMikey]

Album was hot for a week.

that's 7 days longer than MMLP2 was hot

MMLP2 and MCHG can at least claim to being hot..cant say that with Yeezus

nah bruh. yeezus so hot it'll scorch ya damn face.

lol no radio/video presence, no hit record.. lowest selling album of his career and performing in half empty stadiums for his Yeezus tour says otherwise.

it was the 2nd highest grossing tour of 2013 though and sold out every venue except for san antonio

I already know you're an idiot but

Kanye wasnt even in Top 25.. try again

and his tour is struggling and a total flop while Yeezus is his lowest selling album of his career and it has no hit record.

here it goes idiot

Paul McCartney dominates the final Hot Tours tally of the year, earning the No. 1 spot on the weekly recap with more than $40.6 million in ticket sales from the final leg of his Out There! tour. Following jaunts through North and South America and Europe earlier in the year, Sir Paul closed out his world tour with a six-show run through three cities in Japan during November. Returning to the country as a touring headliner for the first time in 11 years, he kicked off the trek with two shows in Osaka on Nov. 11-12. More than 71,000 tickets were sold during the two-night run at Kyocera Dome, the city’s 50,000-seat baseball stadium. With $11.6 million in revenue, the rock legend grossed $3.4 million more than the last time he played the Osaka venue -- also two performances -- during 2002’s Driving World tour.

The Out There! tour’s final shows were held on Nov. 18, 19 and 21 at the Tokyo Dome, marking another return visit for McCartney who also played three concerts at the stadium during the 2002 tour. Ticket prices topped out at $117 during the previous tour’s Tokyo run, generating $14 million at the box office from 120,000 sold tickets, but this year’s concerts included a top ticket in the $165 range. With sellouts on all three nights, the 2013 engagement grossed more than $23.4 million from 146,845 sold seats. The three-show total from the Tokyo Dome was the Out There! tour’s top gross from a single venue. Altogether in 2013, reported grosses from McCartney’s tour surpassed $105.8 million worldwide.

Kanye West lands at No. 2 in the ranking with sales reported from 18 dates on his fall trek through North American markets. The rapper’s Yeezus tour began on Oct. 19 in Seattle and wrapped in Toronto with a two-night stand on Dec. 22 and 23. Ticket sales from 23 performances during the nine-week run total $25.2 million from 283,241 sold tickets. The top grosser was New York City’s Madison Square Garden with more than $3 million in sales from 28,919 sold seats at shows on Nov. 23 and 24, but the top attendance count came from Toronto. The tour’s final stop at the Air Canada Centre drew a combined total of 31,386 fans for both performances. The other two-show engagement that topped 30,000 in attendance occurred in West’s hometown of Chicago. A total of 30,010 tickets were sold for the Yeezus tour at the Windy City’s 25,000-seat arena, United Center on Dec. 17 and 18.

You can't take eminem fans' opinions on hip hop seriously. 95% of them say "I don't listen to hip hop, just eminem"

Says the white cat part of the Yeezus religion... The sig is just small sample of my hiphop collection.. The fact that you're white anyways makes your opinion on hiphop invalid and not respected by me or true heads of the culture.

 

[Billy_Poncho]

Kanye can sell out the fuckin moon, I'ma still say Yeezus sounded like a Transformers gangbang

 

[Breezy_Kilroy]

I still fuck with this album.

Idk why niggas think opinions are universal.

Honestly I play a few albums from 13 y'all deemed only hot a for a week

He need to release the full BiB tho if there is one. Mike Will did his thing on that

need to come up with a new way to discredit me/white posters.

About the other one link I have you saying he making a million per venue!? Foh

Your posts regarding hiphop in The Reason does it for me. IE: u acting like a female over Kid Cudi album drop and excessive Kanye stanning and overall corniness with white humor. You fit right in with pitchfork/complex types trying to dictate the culture without being a part of the culture.

 

[DarthRozay]

lol like your excessive em stanning? and my corniness and white humor obviously wasn't a dead giveaway for the years that I posted on here before anyone realized I was white, and the fact that some posters still don't realize I'm white.

but whatever bruh.

I struck a nerve.. U bash Em more than I praise the guy you ride Kanye till the Wheels fall off giving passes and ignoring the bullshit he does that's stanning bruh.

 

[DarthRozay]

You ain't struck a nerve. You offered an argument, I gave a rebuttal. and as far as any bullshit that Kanye's done, it's almost always in his personal life so of course I'm gonna ignore that shit. I don't give a fuck if he's marrying a whore or any of that dumb shit as long as he's not raping bitches or touching kids.

He dropped lots of wack ass shit musically too and was never a great rapper but I don't expect you bring that up.

 

[DarthRozay]

That's a matter of opinion. Someone might call Lil Wayne the best rapper alive and say Wu Tang is wack. Doesn't make them right, doesn't necessarily make them wrong either. Obviously many people would disagree but it still wouldn't make their opinion wrong.

 

[StoneColdMikey]

The wack shit Kanye drop shits on wack shit em made

Difference between being a fan and a stan. An Objective fan will admit to wack albums/songs and point out flaws in his favorite artist work which I do all the time.. A stan thinks all of his favorite artist work is great with no flaws.
