H-Rap 180;4133090 said:You asked me what he does better and I replied:
1.) Since "King" make better albums
2.) Incorporate more Soul elements than POP
3.) Stay out of prison
4,) Stay Sucka-free
5.) Take artists to the next level
If we are talking HIPHOP music then its only fair to point out the direction that different artists are going with their music...some want to make HipHop HipPOP and others want to maintain its essence.

Don't be impatient, "House Party" is still buzzing heavy and he's touring right now but his buzz will be even hotter after SelfMade 2 and Dreamchasers 2 and you already know he's going to have hot verses on French's debut and GFID along with some other collabs.
I dont like the idea of Meek dropping right now without a strong single. When Wale dropped "Ambition" he had "That Way" all over the radio and a crazy movement on Twitter and he rode that momentum into "Lotus Flower Bomb" and now on to "Sabotage"...but the twist is that Meek ain't got that R&B crossover element so with a street artist in this day&age you gotta have a hot single or an "I Do" like Jeezy if you want some record sales that don't look like Yo Gotti's
If you count on the streets to buy your albums and don't get the Sistas on deck or a crossover track you gonna flop 9 times outta 10.

And lol at ppl saying that sorry TI is getting more bury than Rich Forever......just go to datpiff and the downloads will tell the real story.
Rich Forever>>>>103 and No Mercy
How can u honestly say you out here in these streets but claim TI getting more burn than Ross is right now????

H-Rap 180;4122847 said:buttuh_b;4122684 said:Lol how is Jeezy not eating when he just went gold? One rapper buzz might be more than the other but it's not affecting how none of them are eating. Most Ross fans are also Jeezy fans.. Most Jeezy fans are also Ross fans. They all eating.
Everybody is at their table eating their food but the portions on the plate and the quality of the food is not the same.
Jeezy's previous album (Recession) sold 260,000 first week and his 2011 album (TM103) sold 233,000 first week; he has a strong and loyal fan base who support his projects release like they are an event.
T.I. previous album (Paper Trail) sold 568,000 first week and his last album in 2010 (No Mercy) sold 159,000 first week
Ricky Rozay last album (Deeper than Rap) sold 158,000 copies first week and his last album (Teflon Don) in 2010 sold 176,000 first week.
So if first-week sales are an indication of interest and buzz would it be safe to say that T.I. has taken a dip in popularity while Jeezy and Rozay have maintained their core fan base?
Would it be also safer to say that Rozay is the only one out of the three that has increased his music fan base in the last 3 years that they have all dropped albums?
T.I. has his reality show on VH1 which in my opinion puts him ahead of Ross & Jeezy in terms of popularity and visibility but music industry wise Rozay is making bigger moves than both T.I. & Jeezy. As far as the music quality you already know who got it.

Its a little too early in the game to be saying Ross is making it hard for other more successful rappers to eat. Especially when you consider that he hasnt gone platinum yet or outsold J Cole's debut.
And dont give me that platinum doesnt matter shit. Theres 300+ million people in this country and we're supposed to believe a guy who can't sell a million copies of an album is running the game?

prime example of having "yes men"
ricks best argument is about fif calling koch a grave yard ... everybody goes up then comes back down... everything else rick is talking about goes out the window cause homey has even been UP yet ... hit records dont mean shit ... rick still aint got 1 record thats close to IN THE CLUB ... aint got an collection of albums that can equal what GRODT sold ... team is no where near success was what success came out of the GUNIT bran ... Rick Rosses boys aint eating like Banks and Yayo and shit even Buck and The Game ... just cut it out ... stop trying to save this dude before he made it ... SHOW N PROVE![]()

Washington_Red;4134457 said:No J Cole isnt Platinum yet. He did have bigger first week numbers than Ross has ever done. Matter fact, Cole will probably go plat before Ross too.
My point was that Ross needs to outsell TI and Jeezy before we start talking reckless. I dont care if its first week sales or overall sales. Right now he hasnt done either.
