lol are you upset ? living your fake life through the ic one day at a time ...huh h-rap aka wack ass old bastard from the west

 

[Fazeem_Blackall]

he made roughly 150,000 as a Indie with private Distribution. That is not counting any personal sales through his Website. The majority of money made at a store on a CD is made by the store franchise itself they buy each individual Record for Between 5 to 8 Dollars before they mark it up...

I am just curious at how many detractors here made $150,000 in the last week? Anyone???

Far from fake, fish-fag my life is an open-book.

Fake people hide behind computer screens with scraggly beards and post pictures of dicks.

 

[Lil Face]

Cube need to go head and bow out the game...He's a legend only thing he doing is ruining his legacy by putting out albums and flopping...

You crazy.

When you are already a multi-millionaire you release music for the love of the music regardless of the sales.

22,000 people spent $10 on an album to hear good music because they are fans of good music, it didnt matter to them if Jill & Bob bought the album.
Most people dont even have 22,000 friends on Myspace let alone 22,000 people supporting their music....you bow out the game when Mick Jagger does.

Emenims ass and 50Cent holding a dildo dosent equal a gaylias posting another mans dick and getting his thread locked and clowned by hetero posters.

The highlight of your day is to type my name and interact with me but at the end of the day you are still a Reason gaylias who has been exposed for faggotty.

Wrong.

We did a thread on the front page discussing flops and the difference between Indie and major label artists.

I dont celebrate when any brutha sells below expectations regardless of my feelings about their music, but as a realist I never expected "Pilot talk" or "I am the West" to do major label numbers.

If Ice Cube flopped thats cool, he can find solace in the fact that he dropped hot music for his fans and still has 16 Gold or Platinum albums in his catalog which is more than 99.9% of the rappers that have ever touched a microphone.

 

[gum989]

I liked the album. I give a 7.5/10. I am also enjoying this thread though...

 

[tp3]

You fake ass cornball ass lil kids dont know a fuckin thing. How dare you disrespect a legend like cube. Is he supposed to not grow up in life and do movies that reach broader audiences and make millions of dollars? Its all entertainment and if cube want to keep rapping he can do so if he pleases.

You all are the real people fuckin up the game and makin it a circus. The net gives all you lames a platrform to hate all fuckin day and talk shit about lifestyles and issues you know nothin about and never experienced. You lames dont know shit. Shit is pathetic. You talk shit about cube but praise a fat fake phony like rick ross who has been publicly and literally exposed for fabricating his whole persona. Fuck outta here.

 

[DatNiggaB1]

The proof is in the pudding. Lil Boosie's dum ass outselling Cube jus goes to show you how WACK hiphop is and its consumers.

Nas was right. HIPHOP IS DEAD.

My AVI suits all situations on the IC

Hrap's older than yayo

[myles@thisisfif]

Yayo an old ass nigga aint he? pushin 40?

[hrap-120]

Hrap's older than yayo

You wish I was, stop looking for a father figure online.

Nobody knew tha album was out or nobody cared. I keep tellin yall "gangsta rap" is dead. Only aspect of gangsta rap that's still listened to is "trap muzik" and that's it. otherwise, the shit is outdated. It's not that ppl think Cube is wack, it's just that that subject matter is done and been done for atleast 6 or 7 years.

This post shows you didnt do your homework, the subject matter wasnt "gangsta rap".

you cant put a label on it.

 

[ChuckieInDaMurderAve]

co-sign the bolded. i was never a big cube fan (but i fuck with westside connection) and that always bugged me. how are you gonna be staring in/writing/directing a disney trilogy and still try to be on some gangsta nwa fuck the white man shit? obviously you cant lol.

What the fuck? All that "fuck the white man" and "nwa" shit are from 20 years ago. You can't compare it to Disney movies unless Cube is still claiming to be "a nigga with an attitude" or disses white folks, that's from the past, he's grown now and can't talk about it in his 40s, he may still brag nowadays but it's not like he threatens to start a bloodbath of cops dying in L.A. or going psycho like Norman Bates.

And west coast ain't dead, there's hopes that Spice 1 and MC Eiht deliver with their upcoming albums.

 

[ibedamned]

I dont know, but and independent artist, with no radio or real video singles to go 20k in the first week seems cool to me.
