Swollen Members front-man Madchild is the second consecutive independent artists to crash the charts this month. Following Tech N9ne’s Top 5 debut with Something Else, the Battle Axe Warriors’ general hit with Lawn Mower Man. The album was the lone Hip Hop entry in the Top 200, entering at #149.
While last week’s additions stayed strong, Kanye West hit a benchmark with Yeezus. The polarizing sixth solo album from ‘Ye crossed the gold standard 500,000 mark. This is the first 2013 Def Jam Records release to achieve this feat, which was achieved without traditional marketing and promotion.
Madchild Landscapes The Charts As The Lawn Mower Man
Veteran Vancouver, British Columbia emcee Madchild cracked the Top 200 for the second consecutive time, following 2012’s Dope Sick. The founder of Battle Axe Records and longtime artist on Suburban Noize Records also hit the charts earlier this year with his longtime group Swollen Members, on their March release, Beautiful Death Machine. The album includes video single “Crazy,” which premiered on HipHopDX.
For Lawn Mower Man, named after a 1978 Stephen King short story, Madchild worked with frequent collaborator Slaine, as well as former Dr. Dre protege Bishop Lamont, along with Raekwon’s artist, 2012 DXnext alum, and fellow Candadian, JD Era. During this campaign, Madchild was re-admitted to the United States, after years of being banned from touring.
Kanye West Has A Gold Yeezus Piece
Yeezus joins all of Kanye West’s other studio albums, now carrying gold certification. The Roc-A-Fella/Def Jam Records release met the feat in less than two months since its release. The avant-garde album features the single “Black Skinhead,” which West will reportedly display at his record-tying seventh performance at the MTV Video Music Awards later this month.
Yeezus features involvement from Daft Punk, Lupe Fiasco, 88-Keys, Rhymefest, and mentor No I.D., among many others.

COLE NEEDS TO DROP A SINGLE ASAP
He’s already run his gambit of impactful singles. Now its just tour time and make some real bread. #Yeezy needs to drop another single though.
since when is Robin thick hiphop? because he works with pharel?
hes worked with a lot of rappers
Kendrick Lamar sales will boost next week. “G.K.M.C” will definitely hit Platinum plaque next week
My favourite rappers are Bisz, Medium, Sokol, Tede, Ten Typ Mes. Period!
I chuj
pretty normal numbers for tech n9ne…but 75k gotta be at least 250k on major label or more
And how did you come up with this calculation? FOH and stop reaching.
#YEEZUS just rose again LMAO
where is crooked i?!
😀
Yeezus bombing hard and Rich Gang suceeding.
get your eyes checked 40k in 3 weeks is a failure of epic proportions for ymcmb and birdman
Its 4 million, not 40 thousand.
Wrong. Rich Gang sold 40k and Yeezus sold 504k.
The charts say that Rich Gang sold 4 million and Yeezus bombed.
It’s always Yeezy season. Kanye would never flop like Rich Gang no matter how much he tries to sabotage his brand
What charts are you reading, dentalbitch? Because the real charts say that Yeezus is gold while Rich Gang bomb, barely selling 40k.
dentaldambitch gotta be the most delusional troll ever..
I read this week’s charts and they say rich gang sold 4 million while yeezus sold 50k.
You’re puling this shit outta your ass. The charts say Yeezus sold 504k and Rich Gang sold 40k. IT’S RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU!! READ!!
I read the fucking charts here dumb fucking hater. Just because you want to hate on me and ymcmb does not give you the right to make up bullshit. Rich Gang sold 4 million and Yeezus sold 50k. You’re just mad because we make far more money than you.
No, you don’t. You make up lies and troll the internet. Nobody’s hating. Rich Gang only sold 40k and Yeezus sold 504k. You’re just mad because your favorite artists are flopping and your least favorite artists are doing better than them. Go cry in your corner.
#39 K. Dot Good kid mad city with 7,421 bringing in a total of 994,000.
Next week the kid is officially platinum.
yes, about time!.. that control verse should give him an extra boost..
Macklemore outsold you major label artist…
he has good music and he’s white. can only compare him to artist like mac miller, mgk, etc…
My favorite rapper is Eminem. His new album will sell at least 2 million in the us.
And the only people who care are drunk kids in Seattle.
Sorry to tell you but #MCHG is about to dwarf his numbers, but nice try though.
Keep hating and making up bullshit.
When Vanilla Ice Jr. sells 1 million in a week then you can come back and type with confidence.
Every white rapper’s been called Vanilla Ice Jr., even Eminem. So your hate fails you again.
9 wack rappers and madchild the only one on here thats nice
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! ACE HOOD & YM!!! Damn epic failure, AYO ACE, you can go back to obscurity now. Take several seats.
What you don’t care about Kendrick this week?? Is it cause of his verse on “control”. I know he sold more than 2,600. He’s approaching platinum, I wanna see his totals.
I already did, read man, read!!!

I can’t stop laughing at YMCMBBQLOL. Finally people are showing that they suck.
Tech’s album is doing good, I actually expected it’s sales to drop much more, to around 10k.
GOD DAMN, WHY’S JAY Z GOTTA STUNT ON US BITCHMADE YMCMB HOES SO HARD? THERE HE GO, SELLIN 800,000 PLUS UNITS. WE NEVER GONNA SELL THAT SHIT AGAIN CAUSE WE CAN’T RAP, CAN’T MAKE GOOD MUSIC AND JUST SUCK IN GENERAL. YA’LL KNOW I TALK ABOUT LIL WAYNE ALL THE TIME CAUSE I’M GAY FOR HIM TO RIGHT? I’M GAY AS FUCK.
As an accountant for young money, I can confirm that rich gang bombed. In fact the only copies that were sold were bought by birdbitch herself. we have no money and soon we’ll be living in cardboard boxes with no lights or heat.
Fake. That’s actually an accountant from shady records.
Actually i spoke with drake and he said “I bet that shit would have popped if i was willing to help” it was 5 am in toronto when he said that look it up… also i like big dicks to protrude my loose butthole
Again, some fake from Roc Nation. Drake wanted to help but Birdman told him to focus on his third album.
Nobody believes you.
as a janitor for YMCMB i can confirm that our new artists Paris Hilton and Chanel West Coast are going to go triple platinum first week with their new style of rich white girl rap
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!

Eminem.
Wayne only did it once with C3.

50 went platinum in 4 days
J Cole and Wale still shittin’ on our savior Yeezus, LMAO.

Cause he sold more this week and don’t be mad cause Cole will go platinum before your God.
hes not my god i hate that asshole but to say Wale is killin anyone is comedic! that nicca got 1 gold album how many plat albums and singles kanye got again?
I didn’t say Wale is killin’ anyone. Accept the fact Wale shittin’ on kanye this week.
You’re not looking at the big picture here, kid.
So you won’t accept the fact…It’s sad…
No, cause I love suckin’ dick.
^^ dentalboy, is that you?
You posted a gay comment but you won’t admit it too.
That was a troll, not me.
You right, I admit it, I love gettin’ fucked in the ass. Last night Yeezy fucked me in the ass, Kim was watchin’ and she was smilin’ I was so happy.
Fucking faggot trolls.
Wow, don’t post some weird shit like that.
Yeezus is Garbage.
hahahahaha wayne fell off the charts, looks like YMCMB type rappers are dying out
Wayne’s still here. He’s gone diamond this week.
No, he didn’t.
You still think Kanye is a genius ? The genius of the lamp ? He’s actully the genius of the toilet bowl. LOL
Hahaha
Drake is the only one who can save these YMCMB flops.
Jay-Z will be platinum by October
Jay Z will be platinum sooner than that.
@Anonymous, well said.
“50 went platinum in 4 days”
Like a zillion years ago.
Kids.
same dude who trys to descredit other artists success by saying they wont last 5 years or they dont have 5 gold albums like ross LMAO
it dont matter when it was he fucking did it
YMCMB struggling.
Haters hate ymcmb just because they don’t make anywhere nears as much money as we do.
Typical groupie comment.
What so groupie about it? ALl of this is true.
Everything about it is groupie talk. This is how all delusional stans of many celebrities talk. Nothing you say is true.
They do make far more money than you dumbass. They have far more talent than you will ever have loser. Swag.
More typical groupie comments; plus you admit to be a swagfag.
You only wish they had talent like them. Swag means peace to haters.
What talent? They have none. Swag is an acronym for Secretly We Are Gay.
“don’t make anywhere nears as much money as we do”
who is “we”
nigga you aint part of the label you dont know any of them. take your fucking pills nigga
Hating on me bitch? They have great talent and power. Swag doesn’t stand for anything. It’s a word meaning peace to haters. And I work as an accountant for ymcmb, referring to we.
He’s right, YMCMB Got so much money…they can make an orgy with all your babies mamaz.
When you come back from your imagination world, realize that what you say is bullcrap. Nobody’s hating on you, YMCMB don’t have talent/power, swag mean Secretly We Are Gay, and you’re not their accountant.
This is real life not imagignary. Calling me nigga is considered to be hating. YMCMB has talent, swag mean peace to haters, Im an accountant for them, Drake is staying at ymcmb, and fathers and sons kissing is not gay.
That guy was a fake by dentalboy.
There you go again, repeating the same delusional bullshit and making up lies. Get some psychiatric help ASAP.
Don’t fuckin’ impersonate me, get It ? I’m not a fag.
There you go again dickriding your favorite artist and hating ymcmb.
No, RIAA is not Dentalbicth cause he prefers Jay-Z’s dick.
I didn’t even mentioned my favorite artists. You’re the only dickrider here, dickriding YMCMB.
Jay-Z>Lil Wayne cause numbers don’t lie.
Sales of Wayne’s last album, 968K> MCHG 500k (probably overaccounted)
Wrong. Sales of MCHG (845K)>>>>>>>Sales of INAHB2 (500K)
I mean opening week, Tha Carter 4 sold far more than MCHG.
C4 was released in 2011 and wasn’t his last album (that’s INAHB2). Hov’s recent album outsold Wayne’s recent album in 1st week and total sales.
That album also sold 968k copies opening week and 10 million total.
No, it didn’t. It only sold 2 million total.
AS A FORMER WANNABE ARTIST ON DEATH ROW,I CAN VERIFY DENTALDAMBOY GOT HIS NAME FROM MEN BLOWING LOADS IN HIS MOUTH…O YA FAGGOT TECH N9NE JUST OUT SOLD THAT WACK BULLSHIT COMPILATION CD THAT JUST DROPPED…U LIL FAGGOT
People who post empty and meaningless messages, purely to provoke.
Such people are mentally ill and have severe personality issues and insecurity as well as the average mind/priorities of a twelve year old.
Some people just can’t grow out of the period in their life when scribbling on the walls and dropping spiders on the girls they liked was acceptable. At 20-30yrs of age, it’s just pathetic.
Trolls don’t care about proving a point or championing a cause. They just want to annoy, for the sake of annoyance and personal enjoyment, like a baby is entertained by a rattle or colorful lights.
They may tack on a “point” to draw out specific types of people but, it really doesn’t matter. They’re all the same. They all say the same shit. They all have the same excuses. They all fall back on the same responses and, they all share the same obliviousness to how stupid and pointless their lives are.
The troll is easily amused by things only the most retarded, unfunny child would appreciate.
They celebrate getting a reaction, that’s it. Generally, they are so desperate for human interaction and, they are usually so vile, that negative attention is the best they can get. The saddest thing is, anyone can get a reaction by acting like an idiot. Anyone. They honestly take pride in the “art” like they’ve actually accomplished something.
It’s astonishing to watch them brag about something 90% of the world would be embarrassed to even consider.
Don’t let the occasional “smart” troll fool you. There is no “art” to it. It’s a self loathing tool with anonymity to shield him, doing stupid things and when someone tells them they’re making an ass of themselves, they dance around like some great mastermind who manipulated the psyches of those around them through careful planning and psychology, when in reality, they’re a retard who shit in the public fountain and laughed when everyone looked.
Trolls have existed since ancient times, when they were referred to as the “village idiot” or “town drunk” a quixotic hero in their own mind, that the rest of the world pities in disgust.
Said disgust, isn’t a victory, trolls. You’ve lost. Pray you never realize it. Ignorance truly is bliss and, you’re the happiest motherfuckers around. Go see a shrink and tell them that you find enjoyment in pissing people off and try to look surprised when they tell you, you’ve got serious mental problems.
^^^^ All of this describes dentaldamboy and trolls like him. Ignore them and they’ll disappear.
Ignore this hating bitch, trollbuster, and he will disapeer.
Who’s hating on you? You’re nobody.
That’s you hating on me bitch.
Nobody’s hating on your miserable trolling ass.

New Eminem song out today. It’s called Survival with Skylar Grey. Dope track. go to Eminem.com. While tied into call of duty Ghosts, it will also be on Eminem’s new album. His first official single will come soon.
fuck eminem, ja rule destroyed his career back in the early 2000s
You got that backwards.
obey the god Ja Rule. #FUCKFAME
Kill yourself, Ja Rule. You’ve been finished for a decade. Just stop posting comments about yourself on here everyday, you midget, ugly ass muthafucka. I pray to God everyday that 50 would whoop your ass one day.
JAY Z IS GOAT, DONT HATE PLAYA HATE THE GAME !!!!
Why am I so gay?
Nobody is buy that bullshit music anymore… You lames that don’t buy music need to keep doing that because the labels are about to start dropping all these wack ass rappers… Baby needs to drop him self from the label for putting out that Rich Gang trash! People that buy music don’t want to hear that trash anymore! It’s a new day!
If you think Rich Gang is going bankrupt over a flop album then you obviously don’t understand how they make their money. It’s about singles which will net them a profit in the end.
lol from what single? tapout?
The singles aren’t even selling that much.
Pretty disappointed with Ace Hood’s numbers. Trials & Tribulations is a very good album, it deserves to be selling much more.
Also, I’m a Jigga fan, but Magna Carta is absolute ass.
Macklemore biggest album of 2013!!!! Deal with it haters!!!!
You forget that Magna Carta Holy Grail exists.
Actually they both exist and macklemore has sold millions more than jayz and his satanic posse
mackelmore came out last year asshole jayz came out a month ago
Rich Gang biggest album of 2013.
Biggest flop album of 2013.
As the homeless man who lives in front of Cash Money Records, I can confirm i find Lil Wayne to be the sexiest man alive and Rick Ross twerking turns me on. The only girl that is even attractive is Regina Carter.
Does Wayne have the most most hip hop classics of all time?
i will try to be resonable, but damn he really had one of the greatest runs in hip hop of all time
unarguable classics:
tha carter 2
Tha carter 3
like father like son
no ceilings
da drought 3
dedication 2
the suffix
arguable classics:
the dedication
the prefix
blow
lilweezyana
tha carter
sq4
now thats 13 projects that have stood the test of time, which is essential for a project to be considered a classic. i mean the only artist/groups that i can think of right now is atcq, the roots, and yeezus but wayne still has more classics.
i challenge anyone to show me a hip hop artist with more classics then birdman junior.
“same dude who trys to descredit other artists success by saying they wont last 5 years or they dont have 5 gold albums like ross”
Your one to be talking about discrediting other people’s success. Everyday you’re on here shouting about Wayne, or bellowing about Ross being a former C/O, or how he’s never gone platinum. Just accept the fact I don’t like the same artists you do and keep it moving.
“Everyday you’re on here shouting about Wayne, or bellowing about Ross being a former C/O, or how he’s never gone platinum.”
Yet you’re here everytime dissing Macklemore about irrelevant bullshit and dissing Kendrick for not selling a million. Pot calling the kettle black.
“Just accept the fact I don’t like the same artists you do and keep it moving.”
We’ll do that when you do the same thing.
“Yet you’re here everytime dissing Macklemore about irrelevant bullshit and dissing Kendrick for not selling a million. Pot calling the kettle black”
Well when some proclaim Macklemore a God MC or Kendrick the king, I have to throw in my two cents.
That’s called being a hater.
“We’ll do that when you do the same thing”
We’ll lol Stand on your own two, homie.
Fuck the trolls.
Fuck you too.
hip hop is all fucked up you got these white people with this bullshit even the brothers comming with this dum shit what happen to real hip hop rip stackbundles
Yea, because Stack Bundles ruled the hip hop world, right? Hahaha…God, how will the industry survive without him?
Ja Rule Army runs the blocc
“That’s called being a hater”
You know a thing or two about being a hater. Wayne… Ross… Montana. Basically anybody who clashes with your personal taste.
Those dudes suck.
jay z is lucky he has that one song on his last few cds that sells a shitload to teenage girls. Holy Grail with Justin Timberlake is the only reason his cd still selling. Same as Run This Town was on Blueprint 3. Overall the Cd was very average
dumb ass Blue print 3 also had New York with Alicia Keys
Jay Z’s albums sell based ion his name alone.
Is Kid Cudi, indicud, gold yet?
No.
FUCK no….If Kanye JUST went Gold, how would Cudi be Gold already? And, do you see him on the list anywhere? It’s funny, they act like Kanye going Gold in TWO months is a great feat for him, HAHAHA…Those are the worst numbers he’s ever done, I think. Even 808’s and Heartbreaks went almost Gold the first week!! J. Cole went Gold before Kanye. I think Kanye’s starting to really piss people off and is starting to get a lot of serious haters. I don’t think he’s gonna last too much longer, seriously…
“Those dudes suck”
Kendrick, Macklemore and Nas do suck. Glad we finally agree.
Wrong. YMCMB/MMG suck, not Kendrick, Macklemore, and Nas. You have shitty music taste.
Wrong. YMCMB/MMG suck, not Kendrick, Macklemore, and Nas. You have shitty music taste.
Quote-man’s music taste sucks.
yeah he listens to pitbull, birdman, latin rappers, rick ross, meek mill, lil wayne… LMAO horrible taste
I have FM radio taste.
J cole is the best rapper alive
“yeah he listens to pitbull, birdman, latin rappers, rick ross, meek mill, lil wayne”
Pitbull is way more popular than Kdot. That’s beyond obvious. I’d rather listen to upbeat catchy songs anyday over sleepy ass shit from a Drake wanna be.
Pitbull is a sellout pop artist making the same songs over and over again. Kendrick is nothing like Drake and does not make sleepy shit; most of GKMC has bangers (Bitch, Don’t Kill My Vibe, Backseat Freestyle, Money Trees, M.A.A.D City, Swimming Pools, Compton, The Recipe, etc.)
pitbull makes music for soccer moms and aspiring soccer moms. people who listen to whatevers on the radio and actually dont have any taste
kendrick got a platinum album pitbull albums all flop he sells singles
I’m a total fag simply because of my name.
“kendrick got a platinum album”
Wow! And so do hundreds of other rappers.
Not Officer Ricky, Meek Mill or Wale!
“Pitbull is a sellout pop artist making the same songs over and over again”
Just cause he makes more money off radio friendly songs doesn’t make him a sellout. Besides, he’s limited lyrically, so naturally he’s going to do the same type of songs over and over.
Pitbull is a sellout, just like Flo Rida.
“Pitbull is a sellout, just like Flo Rida”
Better a sellout than a sleepy rapping fag with big ears.
in your opinion, which means nothing to anyone due to your horrible taste in music
I’d rather make music with substance than be a sellout who’s not respected in the community. Your hatred against substance is making you say dumb, childish shit.
“in your opinion, which means nothing to anyone due to your horrible taste in music”
Your two heavy hitters are an indie drunk, and a mainstream fairy, yet your saying I have horrible taste in music? lol Have a good day gimpy.
i dont even like macklemore i just love to defend him against you
and indie drunk that sold more records this year than everyone on MMG combined LOL
Your idols are a former C.O. turned fake gangster, a label full of studio gangsters and wanna-be poets, and a label full of three fake pop rappers and a bunch of background extras run by a bald man who kisses the main cash cow on the lips. You shouldn’t speak.
“I’d rather make music with substance than be a sellout who’s not respected in the community”
So Thrift Shop is an example of substance? lol
A song about saving money on clothes>>>>>>>>>>>>>a song about buying expensive shit
“Not Officer Ricky, Meek Mill or Wale!”
Officer Rick and friends are making more money than big earred Kenwack. His phony platinum certification didn’t fool anybody but you.
LOL “phony platinum certification”?? Now you’re just butthurt Ross and friends cant go plat! LMAO
How would Wale or Meek possibly make more than K.Dot? Where would this money come from? They aint selling a milli or even half of that therefore they arent in demand and will not get nearly as much for a show! Kendrick will pass Ross in another year or so!
“How would Wale or Meek possibly make more than K.Dot?”
Wale’s three albums deep and touring like crazy. He also makes 50,000/show, and gets a healthy % for every digital single he sells. Going platinum is never a bad thing, but artists don’t make their money off albums anymore.
stop hes not getting 50k a show. he probably plays for crowds of 2000
no ones buying wale digital singles dawg
“and indie drunk that sold more records this year than everyone on MMG combined LOL”
Based on 3 of the most gay singles ever.
Nobody’s talking about Drake’s shit here.
A song about saving money on clothes, an inspirational track, and a anti-homophobia song is gay now? Drake crying about saving strippers is gayer than that.
“i dont even like macklemore”
I want to see your Ipod.
“Nobody’s talking about Drake’s shit here”
Clever stuff there Anon. Still talking about Wacklemore, but you’re catching on.
Get a life.
“A song about saving money on clothes, an inspirational track, and a anti-homophobia song is gay now?”
Especially a song about saving money on clothes. Does it get any cornier? Maybe you like this cupcake shit, but most people who know music have already dismissed this guy.
“most people who know music have already dismissed this guy.”
his single went like 5x platinum and the album is about to sell a million copies, not even counting all the illegal downloads! i’d say more people have dismissed officer ricky than macklemore since hes selling even less
What’s so corny about a song about saving money on clothes? If anything, it’s original. Corny describes songs dedicated to designer brands. I rather listen to Thrift Shop than that fucking Versace song.
i think naming your record label after another persons automobile brand is fucking corny! especially when you jack the logo and your artist meek mill jacks to rolls royce logo for his struggle label
“A song about saving money on clothes>>>>>>>>>>>>>a song about buying expensive shit”
Hip hop was built on rappers bragging about their wealth. Does Jay Z rap about clipping coupons? Does Eminem rap about shopping at The Dollar Store? Get your mind right.
em did rap that A&W was the best spot for hot dogs
It doesn’t always have to be like that. There has to be a balance. I don’t mind the bragging rhymes, but it becomes a problem when EVERY song is just bragging. Thrift Shop is a breath of fresh air in a hip-hop climate obsessed with designer brands.
Yeah he does. Eminem always raps about shopping at dollar stores and shit.
yeah em raps about driving around in shitty cars too
