Nipsey Hussle selling first 1,000 hard copies of Crenshaw tape for $100.00 each

[Peezy_Jenkins]

and when complex do articles like they did on Trap Musik, they cool

 

[Big Kola]

Yea he is like a less talented version of Ab-soul. Why would he do that with things they way they are. He should sell the first 50 for a dollar.

To be real, quality wise I'd cop this for the hundo if I had the change, nip$ey is a smart nigga $100.000 off just a 1000 of ur sole fan base on a proven product will move... Not every1 in the world is broke especially out here in CA, I spend $100 on day to day expenses, I respect the outgoingness to build his own and he's the best rapper out here in California word to Kendrick Lamar...

You come out here to Cali niggas fux wit Nipsey a lot more than Kendrick actually... That's why he's on some core fan base shyt he knows he can dedicate more to a smaller group and keep it 100 than sign with an MMG or Bad Boy and get pigeonholed like these new rappers... I think since Snoop or Dre hasn't took Nipsey under their wing, that only other guy I could like seeing him link with is T.I.... If not keep it independent

I guess Jay Z cosigned my post

NEWS: JAY Z CAN'T KNOCK THE HUSSLE, NIPSEY EXPLAINS HOV'S $10,000 PURCHASE

THURSDAY, OCT 10, 2013 10:15AM

Written by Cyrus Langhorne

After shocking the hip-hop world by attaching a hefty price tag to his new Crenshaw album, West Coast rapper Nipsey Hussle has revealed how Jay Z dug into his pockets to make a $10,000 purchase.

According to Nipsey, Jigga had his Roc Nation entertainment company cop 100 copies.

"I got a DM on Twitter from a respected hip-hop journalist and he was just like, 'Hov respects the move, salute,' " Nipsey told MTV News on Wednesday (October 9). "A little while later, I got an email that came through my team that was like, 'Roc Nation, on behalf of Jay Z wants to buy 100 units. Who do we pay? When can we get the shipment out?' " Just like that, Nipsey moved 100 of the 1,000 physical CDs he pressed up in one shot. "They sent us $10,000, we sent them 100 CDs," Nip confirmed. "I didn't get a chance to holla at Jay, but through his people he made it clear that he respects the movement and everything. I was humbled by it. I felt like it was a good risk, and it ended up working out." (MTV)

Not stopping with Young Hov, Hussle said fellow rap greats like California legend E-40 have rode behind the movement.

The statement clearly resonated with Jay and a legion of fans, because Nip has since sold all his available copies. Now, fellow artists are showering him with praise. "Since I announced... I've been getting phone calls and tweets from people showing support and love," he told us. "I talked to E-40 this morning, we laughed about it. He was like, 'What you tryna do, you tryna shut the game down?'" (MTV)

The rap newcomer also issued a statement defending the dicey business move a few days ago.

"It ISN'T the price of the plastic case and polyurethane disc...it's the price of Revolution! The price of Rebellion against an industry that has tricked us all into making products that have no soul for fear of not being heard if we don't." (Rap Radar)

Known for having money to blow, Jay recently landed onto Forbes' Cash Kings 2013 list.

This shit is ass backwards on so many levels. LOL at "revolution" meaning to attack the pockets of the fans. Them niggas buying that shit ain't done nothing special, they just kept his lights on. Nigga bragging bout Jay Z donating to 10k.

I'd be more impressed by Jay Z signing that nigga with a good contract that makes him a millionaire.

Nigga I've paid for all of my music unlike most people, kill that noise. Amazon cloud player stay full.

And even if the shit comes with a ticket, I've never paid for a concert ticket that was $100 in value. That shit better be vip, front row shit, with a back stage pass.

This nigga doing too much. Punishing consumers for some bullshit his co-workers and their bosses control. Niggas complain bout the price of gas but wanna let this shit slide, I don't get it.

I wanna be clear bout something... So yall don't get it twisted....

This is not some shit a nigga can do with EVERY album.... or EVERY mixtape...

I'm a big gucci mane fan, but i'll blow my brains out before I pay $100 for EVERY mixtape or album he drop...

It don't work like that.

This some shit you can do ONCE, maybe TWICE in your career, to cater to your MOST HARD OF HARDCORE FANS...

Reading this nigga Nipsey timeline... I honestly think he got shit a lil twisted... somebody said, "how does it feel to be $100k richer in less than a week"... and he said, "lunch money. it's more about the new business model"....

I hope he meaning the new business model he created for everyone with HARDCORE fans in the industry to do this ONE time in their career...

Cus if he think a nigga bout to drop a bill everytime he drop a mixtape or album, he truly marked out and got shit fucked up.... He'll learn the hard way.

Niggas supported him cus this is the first time anyone ever did it, and it was a bold move... But his die hard fans, even those with $, aint bout to drop a bill everytime bruh.... THEN it's a money grab.

I hope this clear shit up for you a lil bit.

If NAS did this with his next LOST TAPES series, I'd be all in! Classics deserve this type of treatment, they're easily collector's items!!!
