THE Game - The R.E.D Album *** OFFICIAL ALBUM DISCUSSION THREAD **

[nujerz84]

AVG album but Ricky is crazy....

 

[contemplate]

why is there an argument about wayne and jay in this thread, why is one side proposing that if a bunch of people go at one person over the years it means anything at all, why are these the same people defending wayne when hella people have gone at him

 

[DanknDrank]

this album bangs, i give it a 4/4.5 out of 5.....everybody i talked to offline about the album surprisingly declared The R.E.D. Album>Watch The Throne

 

[Cabana_Da_Don]

[vageneral08]

[Shankydizzle]

Game still going, gotta give him props for that

 

[choppa_style]

Game still going, gotta give him props for that

Strong? At 90k? If that number is true I seriously don't think that's a plausible statement.

 

[_Menace_]

Game sold around 270k WW in first week sales

 

[H-Rap 180]

Salute to Game for dropping a decent album, and salute to Dr Dre for being a part of the project.

...most of all salute to the fans that support the music by purchasing albums.

 

[biggar]

I aint even from the west but Im in Gardena once a year so Im glad the west is back.

Not a game fan too tough but I hope it opens up lanes for my boy Kendrick Lamar

 

[Lab Baby]

Good for Game. Album was sick, nice to see it translate well commercially.

 

[H-Rap 180]

Going from 550 k to 100 k is a flop. Even going from his last album of 240k to 100k is a flop.

Cool story, so tell Emenim that he flopped since he went from 10-million to 4-million.

 

[YamoleySensei]

That clown flopped harder than Gee's man boobs running a 40 yard dash....

 

[usmarin3]

95k not a 100k, those aren't good numbers for a nigga who sold 5 mil on his first project

"most you rap niggas will pop for a minute and the game will get rid of ya'll" - Nas

triple entandre, don't even ask me how

 

[Gee_has_hot_picture]

95k not a 100k, those aren't good numbers for a nigga who sold 5 mil on his first project

wtf u talking about, Ross and 50 cent only move 100k first week

those numbers r good for game, i expected far less

he did his own promotion

only jay,em,kanye,young money do more

 

[Who Cares???]

Decent numbers. Average album. Nowhere close to The Documentary but way better than wack ass LAX.

i was ready to bury game after those im sorry shit mixtapes(i didnt mind some songs), i thoguht Red would be some autone garbage, but he actually made some very solid music

Ross never went plat and 50 did more than 95k in his first week and his album atleast went gold. Those aren't good numbers no matter what you say for a establish nigga, and don't bring up no promo bullshit either because he was on 106 and park, has tv ads, was on CNN,etc.

This the same clown clowing 50 Cent album sales of his last album, so it's only right he gets clown. Game is done as a artist, he will be on Koch records in a few years.

 

[H-Rap 180]

Cool story, so pretend that when 50 Cent went Gold you didn't claim it was a flop because of his past success. And since you're bringing up Eminem, let's look at the sales of his last two albums, Recovery sold roughly 1.5 mil more than Relapse, so he even had a sales recovery as well as a drug recovery. Game flop, he had no problem dissing Banks sales but his sales aren't great in comparison to Banks considering he's signed to the biggest label in music at the moment, got the so-called GOAT producer cosigning him, got features from the biggest rapper on his album, and he's the nigga that did 5 mil out the gate.

Is your sensitivity due to 50-Cent somehow???
Are you confused?? Why are you talking about G-Unit??

Who said your 50-cent flopped?
Your illogic is flawed and makes no sense.

Normal people with intelligence recognize that moving 100,00 first-week in 2011 is a win because people with intelligence recognize that only 4 HipHop artist have gone platinum in the last two years (Drake, Emenim, Nicky, Kanye) and only about 5 have gone Gold (Luda, Ross, B.O.B, Wayne, Wiz,).

So if you adjust according to the climate of the industry 100,000 is a win regardless of emotions.
