For the second week in a row, there was a new #1 album. Daft Punk, while not a Hip Hop group, has ties to the culture by way of Kanye West and J Dilla sampling and praises. The French group’s fourth album, Random Access Memories featured strong involvement from N*E*R*D’s Pharrell Williams. The Columbia Records effort sold approximately 340,000 units. This is the group’s first with the new label home, after a lengthy tenure at Virgin/EMI Records.
On the Hip Hop side, French Montana’s studio debut, Excuse My French scored a Top 5 debut. The album is notably a joint effort between Bad Boy Worldwide/Interscope Records, with involvement from Maybach Music Group. The Morrocan-born rapper sold over 50,000 units. Still, this is Bad Boy’s lowest first-week sales since Janelle Monae’s 2010 debut, The ArchAndroid, which sold approximately 21,000 copies despite critical praise.
Also debuting on the charts was Gucci Mane’s Trap House III. The third volume in the trilogy dating back to Gucci’s 2005 Tommy Boy Records-backed debut was also his least-selling. Released independently, the legally-troubled Atlanta, Georgia Rap vet squeezed into the Top 200 selling 2,500 units.
French Montana Makes No Excuses
French Montana’s Excuse My French was a benchmark to the independent veteran. Though selling considerably less than MMG releases from Wale or Meek Mill, as well as Bad Boy’s recent releases, French did achieve Top 5 status. The LP boasts appearances from Drake, Rick Ross, and longtime affiliate Max B. Additionally, French enlisted vets Scarface and Snoop Lion on his major label debut.
The Coke Boyz head also recruited production from Rico Love, Cardiak and “One Blood” producer Reefa. Low sales may be the product of some strong criticism on the album’s cohesion and depth.
When He’s Not In The Big House, Gucci Mane Stays In The Trap House
Eight years after Gucci Mane released Trap House on Big Cat/Tommy Boy Records, the Atlanta, Georgia rapper dropped the third volume. Sneaking into the charts at #175, this is the lowest-charting effort in the trilogy. Self-released, Gucci sold less than 3,000 first-week units on the digital-only effort.
Guests include Wiz Khalifa, 2 Chainz and Rick Ross on the Brick Squad release. Gucci, who is awaiting trial for aggravated assault, worked extensively with Memphis, Tennessee producer Drumma Boy, with involvement from Southside, Lex Luger and longtime collaborator Zaytoven. The album’s closer, “Birds Of A Feather,” takes shots at Yo Gotti, T.I. and Young Jeezy—which Gucci displayed on his Bandcamp page—where the entire album is available for stream and purchase.

RELATED: French Montana Details Excuse My French, Says He’s More Of A Birdman Than A Lil Wayne [2012 INTERVIEW]
French sold 49,775 and was number 6. So where does HHDX get top 5 and 56k from?
Every other website reported he did 49,775.
HHDX likes to make irrelevant people like french and ross to feel or appear relevant to the peeps that visit here. there are some staffers, you can tell are french, ross, are their favorite rappers….lol
They’re going off what hitsdailydouble.come reports. However HDD always reports a day early. They do not factor in all of Tuesdays sales. It is more of an educated guess with them.

French Flopped Ha music sucked any ways
Lil Wayne album not Gold Yet Flop Lil wayne is falling off fast
Kendrick Classic Album
Gucci Mane: Hot Garbage
About a month ago he said he was going Plat on first week. I saw an interview yesterday where he said, “It doesn’t matter how many records I sell”. Now I can see why! lmao I’m not surprise tho! I would think he would at least break the 100k mark with all them features. Guess when your music sucks, it don’t matter how many features you and it just simply sucks! Either way, I hope he can now stop making music! The people have spoken!
I dont remember him saying he was going plat but he did say he wanted to sell 200k first week and that he was gonna buy 100 copies for himself and have his label buy another 1000 copies for him. So really he sold like 48k
I guess WorldStar was lying then.
50 to french…
It was all good, just a week ago.
trash music trash numbers
real talk…617 huh? where realness always happens. thats why I respect ur comment.
My thing with Lil Wayne is that hes just like Adam Sandler. All of us who grew up in the late 80s and earlier know his classics (Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, Water Boy, Big Daddy) and how hilarious and talented he was. But there is a whole generation of kids out there who only know Sandler for his trash (Jack & Jill, Bedtime Stories, Thats My Boy). Lil Wayne has been so mediocre for so long now, that kids dont even know that he used to be great. They just know him as that dude who has horrible punchlines like Two bottles of Goose thats geese. I mean, when is the last time Wayne put out a meaningful song? A Milli? Maybe? The guy has literally talked about nothing in his songs for a good five years now.
FAKE
true- but i remember that wayne i grew up w that wayne and even now hes pushed out so much garbage thats how ill always remember him.. a faggot who changed his style up 2 be poppin, started wearin womans cloths, kissing guys on the lips, got heavy into drugs, made his voice get more annoying than chalk on the board and now thats his legacy when he dies
french flopped hard that album cost way to much to make with the features, beats and samples but he’ll be iight when he tours
“stop lying” – slick rick
It’s not a suprise that French album didn’t sell. draft punk came out the gate swinging tho. Checkout thegrandreport, they got some good stuff and videos on there too
HHDX numbers and positions are bogus!!
1 Daft Punk 325,774
4 The Great Gatsby 52,328
6 French Montana 49,775
11 Macklemore & Ryan Lewis 24,333
22 Lil Wayne 13,565
39 Kendrick Lamar 8,885
The numbers are rounded. That’s why you see this note at the end of the article: “data comes from Nielsen Soundscan, rounded to nearest thousandth for units above 10,000, nearest hundredth for units below 10,000”
Where did your numbers from?
kanye album yeezus NOT AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER
you can only purchase the album on JUNE 18
THIS SUCKS ASS
who preorder anything anyway, you’re better off copping it on the day. you’ll probably get it sooner
Rappers who last albums sold more first week than French Montana without half the buzz/features
Slaughterhouse 52k
Chief Keef 50k
Tyler the Creator 89k

Pitbull 64k
But all the above is TRUU
i guess hiphop aint dead the fans are speaking with sales.
BUTTTTT what does this say about Rozay you gotta give him credit when you see sales like this?
I’d recheck your stats. Montana outsold at least 3 of those acts. Who the fuck thought he was gonna do huge numbers anyway? I bet if he did 200k people would still be saying he flopped. There’s no pleasing people who steal music.
based off selling 49,775 as reported by most other websites he DID NOT outsell any of those acts, including slaughterhouse, tyga and chief keef.
How this nicca gonna talk about 50 falling off and its his time now when he cant sell 50k records first week with 37 features and Bad Boy/MMG/Interscope all behind him???
I thought French said he was the MOST IMPORTANT ARTIST ON INTERSCOPE! LMAO!!!
CMOM SON HOW YOU SELL LESS THAN SLAUGHTERHOUSE? OR TYLER THE CREATOR? THEY AINT HAVE NO HITS OR RADIO SINGLES
2 many haters and and people stealing his music thats why
NO ONE STEALING THAT SHIT FUCK OUTTA HERE COULDNT GIVE AWAY THAT WEEDPLATE
LMAOOOOO^
if your hated on in rap 80% of the time its bec your actually WACK- real rappers sell kendrick ect ect are gettin shine- lilwaynes a biproduct of being great then just lettin his name sell his past 4 trash albums
Slaughterhouse already had a fanbase though.
The numbers are rounded. That’s why they put this note at then end of each article: “data comes from Nielsen Soundscan, rounded to nearest thousandth for units above 10,000, nearest hundredth for units below 10,000.”
Im wondering how French even managed to sell 50k copies…who are his fans ?
His best songs all were carried by his features.
BAD BOY CURSE CONTINUES. HE GONNA BE PAYING DIDDY BACK FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE! HAHAHAHAH. 5 YEARS FROM NOW HE GONNA FIND GOD AND BE A BORN AGAIN PREACHER
How you gonna sell less opening week than a movie soundtrack that been out for a month?
BIGGEST RAP FLOP OF THE YEAR
DON’T STOP FLOP THAT FLOP THAT
Mac & Cheese 3 should have been the album and Excuse My French a mixtape.
So how’s the “best album of the decade” going, French? Still think it would outsell anything 50 Cent put out? I know he can’t get his album out right now but I’m pretty sure 50 can sell more than 49K. I love how cocky this dude was until late last week where he started talking about Akon and Shaggy only selling 10-17K units and then going on to sell millions, out of nowhere. He knew he flopped.
All that coke he be boasting about sellin, he probably bought all 56000 cd’s himself. Tattle tale ass rapper
He already has a platinum single so somehow I don’t think he’s sitting back thinking how bad he flopped.
A platinum single with a major sample, a producer and 3 features who all taking a cut. He not making shit off that
He doesn’t have a platinum single; he has a gold single.
Yeah because M.I.M.S. had a platinum hit with “This Is Why I’m Hot” and he’s doing just fine. He probably doesn’t think he flopped, right?
fucking Machine Gun Kelly sold more than yo ass French how that feel? You ain’t shit BOY!!!
lmao!
MGK is actually a beast tho. lyrically hes on point- demons w dmx is one of my favorite tracks ever- but that was last year. macklemore outsold him- even the great gatsby is outselling lmaoo montana is wackkk juice
Take THAT! Take That! Take That!!!!!!
yo i seen frenchs album cover and countdown damn near every hiphop site i been on and some outside and 50k..damn he prob owes the label some money now.
2.5k bought gucci joint HAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAH
gucci gave his shit away for free though 2.5k is pretty good for a free mixtape
yah i guess thats true then. makin money of something free..but either way he put time into it. cant argue w that though
Who remember this tweet from French Montana?
“@50cent if u really about Dat life lets drop our album da same day and see who sell more u had your turn old man”
Karim Kharbouch was really feelin himself LOL
Wish i could post that GIF of 50 laughin and drivin away from the stop lights in the convertible
Not a hater, but French’s sales physically made me laugh. Even 50 could do better than that, excuse the pun.
so you actually laughed? “physically”????
I did too
ahahahah this bitch ass pretty boy fucking sucks quit music already
pretty boy? now i know you aint talkin bout french that nicca aint got a pretty bone in his whole body
Whuhahahah, Montana. Excuse my French but FU*** your Life!
“I’m dropping Excuse My French next year because I ain’t want to be part of the billing cycle. I am ‘the’ most important person in that [Interscope Records] building, that’s how you got to look at it. You know ‘Donkey’ ain’t doing too good,” French said in an interview with DJ Drama, referring to 50 Cent. “[laughs] It’s bad over there, nobody’s really doing nothing. Shout-out to Kendrick Lamar doing all them numbers, that’s beautiful. … [Have I talked to 50 since the Twitter disses?] Nah, you know, things people do when they cold. That’s what happens. “
its all good frenchy you didnt hit 200k the first week but your still a boss in the game
how he a boss in any way? he signed to like 4 niccas
56000 pretty good these days. ppl gonna hate
Not good when you claim you gonna do 200k. When you signed to Ross AND Diddy and have every rapper in the game featured on your album.
nicca really had a giant billboard in Times Square advertising his album LMAO
MaxB hurting in jail right now. What an embarrasment. He should have kept his cam recorder cuz them videos sold way better than this crappy album. The worst Album out NY in history
I got the French album for free & it’s in still in my trunk in the plastic. The fact 56,000 actually bought this hurts my head.
naah about 10.000 people bought that crappy cd. All them wannabees thugs and people that still walk around with walkman lmao.
Yeah and diddy bought the rest along with the FLOP Boys and MMG
MGK sold 57k first week… Bad Boy is done.
thats pretty good for MGK, he didnt have half the promo, buzz or big name features.
is wayyyyy better than montana..fuck it alot of rappers hes better than werd
nuggaz betta pick up a basketball or sumthin
Naw he need to go back to filmin niggas moms and makin them DVDs he claims he got rich before rap off that shit might be time to go back to it he aint built for this rap life.
Where is Kweli’s album? Already out of the top 200?
HipHopDX should do a chart especially for independent albums.
Problem is when you not on the charts its pretty hard to find out what you sold because you sold so little you’re not on the charts
Excuse my flop just went triple wood.
Not even hardwood either. Shit is like particleboard. Wood chips glued together shit is weak as fuck.
lmaoooo. internet gets me dyin sometimes tho from ppl responses.
LOL
“TOP 5 STATUS…”
LMFAO
Welp… I said if French Montana sold over 100K first week I’d lose faith in human beings, I still got it lol. LAME ASS ALBUM, YOU CAN SAVE 4 OR 5 SONGS
Ja Rule – #RULETALK EP coming out next month produced entirely by Harry Farud, featuring French Montana, Rick Ross, Ashanti & more.
after that its FUCK FAME!
he killin the game
So imagine those numbers if 50 moved his album up.
This is one of the biggest flops in today’s hiphop music. When you have not only Diddy but Rick Ross as your executive producer, plus every “rapper” in the game, how do you only sell 56k?
He also admitted that he would have his label buy 1000 copies on top of the 100 he planned to purchase himself
By pushing the album back to the point where are your buzz hits rock bottom.
^all
Maybe if this would have came out shortly after pop that, it might have sold 100k. Montana doesn’t even stand out, he just gets drowned by other rappers.
I hope Mack and Kendrick hit a million
The chart numbers are bogus
1. Excuse my French: 760k copies
2. Random Access Memories: 30k copies.
maybe in Bizarro World
As an accountant for Coke Boys, Montana sold 760k copies.
You’re making shit up.
Either way you look at it French won the 50 beef. He bitched the biggest hater in rap so bad he was afraid to release the album of the same day as french. Frenchie has all the street credentials a real nigga could have and everyone is bumping his new shit while 50 feels bitter cause everyone forgot about him.
50 scared Frenchy out of his own listening party.
LOL good one. French didnt make anyone afraid to release their album. 50 would easily sold double or triple what Karim Kharbouch did. Street credentials my ass. He filmed niggas mommas and now he cool with them. We call that a snake
i agree- 50 fell of heavily but his name alone would of brought in atleast 60k
look at all these bitch ass bloggers happy cause a nigga album didnt sell as much as it should have
Correction nigga. It sold WAY MORE than it ever should have. He shouldnt even have a deal
Best reply ever!!
where are sales for Wolf and Troubleman??
50 will never spend time in prison, cause he’s a snitch to the cops. You punks who call yoself street nigga’s, who dog on Ja…. Think about it… You support 50, then you support corrupt/crooked cops. 50 means Five-0…. Stupid young fuckas nowadays, are ignorant to reality. R.U.L.E. = R.E.A.L.
you the same person as “Ricky Rozay” comin in here pasting the same anti 50 cent comments in every article.
You equate Ja Rule with being real because he couldnt afford security and has no crew to hold him down so he got caught with a gun?
50 will sell way more than french i bet 90k in first week french dont have huge dedicated fan base… good try though sucka
most of these rappers aint real niggas. Word, Nas bankrupt never was a drug runner, Lil Wayne aint no blood, Jeezy aint no BMF, 50 a snitch, Game a stripper, Em was gay. None of these niggas real you guys. If they was all real they all be dead now. Like it or not Ross is the new biggie.
BAWSE!!!!!!!!
They all realer than officer William Roberts
Another flop for MMG to add to their discography
Ya boy Tip tho! Triple OG
on this day, next year, nobody will care about fagglemore/the heist/thrift shop.
since his music/rap is forgettable and boring.
his high sales are only cause of the radio friendly tracks, they are getting played so much on radio and every average pop music listener, likes that ofc.
hes far far away from good hiphop sounds/rapping.
awful artist tbh, no way id listen that shieeet.
#JesusPiece
Niggas forgot about Jesus Piece a month after it came out. A year from now seems pretty good considering
^ ..was a good concept but 100 features made it completely forgettable
Wayne has been rocking it on the charts. Including unaccounted sales, Lil Wayne has now sold 5 million copies of IANAHB2.
COSIGN!!
WRONG. He only sold 450k. He’s not rocking anything.
whiteboy about to go platinum and there are still people arguing with me when i tell them that the colour of your skin contributes to your success.
like i predicted this macklemore dudue gonna outsell all “other” hip hop acts and oh, i’m sure its because the hip hop community is supporting.
how do you explain a no talent like wayne almost going gold… compared to a white guy who spits about shit in his life not no fake gang bangin imma beat this pussy up n that one too and oh wait that one again and uhh maybe that one over there too.?
Notice how as soon as Kendrick Lamar started criticizng popular rappers like Wayne, Drake, Future, Ross, TI and Trindad James his sales fell off? That’s right, top rappers will keep talking about molly and partying no matter what Kendtick thinks about it. Kendrick has proven himself to be a disloyal piece of shit. All of these guys co-signed him and now he turned his back on them. Well, thankfully, YMCMB MMG and TI have the most loyal fan bases in the world. They will make sure that Kendricks sales fall off. Other rapers don’t have real fans. If Wu Tang or Talib Kweli had real fans, those rappers would be rich and popular like Wayne and Ross.
That’s a joke, right?
He sales didnt suddenly fall off. The album been out since October selling pretty stready numbers with a slight decline each week.
lol ok if that was true then the whole Cash Money would still famouse but they are all broke and not just because Baby robbed them all. The reasone Wayne blew up was because he brought something new to the game that clicked with the radio and he was fortunate to have signed Drake so when wayne starts out selling Kendirick Asap,Kaye, Macklamore, Drake etc come back and brag about your hero.
Everything you say is bullshit lies.
When you say bullshit lies, that means my lies are bullshit meaning that my lies aren’t lies and that is the truth.
When I say bullshit lies, that means your comments are lies filled with bullshit. You’re a pathological liar.
YES, IANAHB 2 (AND PART ONE) WERE STUDIO ALBUMS. BUT KEEP IN MIND THAT NONE OF THEM HAD PROMOTION LEVEL AS CARTERS DID. PART ONE WAS RELEASED IN THE SAME YEAR AS THE REBIRTH AND YOUNG MONEY COMPILATION WAS RELEASED LESS THAN YEAR BEFORE IANAHB. BESIDES THAT, LIL WAYNE WAS IN JAIN AT THE TIME WHEN FIRST ONE WENT OUT AND STILL SOLD 110K IN THE FIRST WEEK AND 125 IN THE THIRD WEEK. JUST GOOGLE IT, FOR EXAMPLE ON UKMIX IT IS STATED THAT IT HAS SOLD OVER 1,031,000 COPIES TO DATE.
AND REBIRTH SOLD OVER 820K, WE ARE YOUNG MONEY WENT GOLD… HOW MANY RAPPERS CAN DO THAT? BEING IN JAIL FOR MOST OF THE YEAR AND STILL BE ABLE TO DELIVER THREE SUCCESSFUL SIDE PROJECTS? LIL WAYNE WAS THE FIRST RAPPER SINCE TUPAC TO HAVE NUMBER ONE ALBUM FROM JAIL.
HOW IS POSSIBLE THAT WAYNE’S ROCK ALBUM SOLD MORE THAN MOST OF “REAL” ROCK ARTISTS AT THAT TIME?
LIL WAYNE IS THE BEST RAPPER NOWADAYS.
No one is talking about Lil Wayne
Please the whight boy Macklamore is selling more than wayne right now. He fell way off since he got back. i know his your boss and your getting paid to troll but at leasty admitt to yourself that your full of shit. Kendrick, and Asap murder your bosses #’s so get out of here withe best rapper shit. Tell your boss we want more Drought shit if he wants to be on top again.
Everything you say are lies.
Because I’m an accountant for Cash Money Records, I spend a lot of time with Birdman. He told me that in 96, Biggie was looking to get out of his contract with Bad Boy so he could sign with Cash Money. If Cash Money is right for Biggie, then it’s clearly the top record label. Unfortunately, Jay-Z and Diddy found out about Biggie’s upcoming departure and had him shot. Also, Birdman as always a role model for Pac. Most of you don’t know this, but the song Hit Em Up was originally supposed to be Split Em Up, a song where Pac brags about fucking Faith, leading to her breakup with BIG. But Birdman explained to Pac that real gangsta’s talking about killing people, so that’s how Hit Em Up took on such a violent tone.
Everything you just said are lies.
You know you’re fucking WACK when you are the worst part of your own album!!
French Montana – Excuse My French – 56,000 (56,000)
that is terrible when you have officer ricky diddy khaled and half the industry behind you and promoting you
When 50’s album comes out, if it does, it’ll probably do the same numbers. People don’t buy the majority of albums anymore. I’m surprised it even did 56,000.
this guy been on every fuckin hiphop website i ever clicked on with countdowns n shit..#donkeyflopped
50 could sell more blank cds
Maybe now these clowns will realize no one wants to hear your “We are the World” album as assembled by DJ Khaled. Game I’m lookin at you too.
Excuse my FLOP
The album’s #2 on Itunes hip hop chart.
lmaoooo this guy had to pull out #2 on itunes in hiphop..hes dickriding for montana so hard he came back with well he might not be 1 but hes 2 on itunes only though..and only for hiphop genre.
still a flop
DONT STOP,FLOP THAT,FLOP THAT,FLOP THAT!!!! DONT STOP,FLOP THAT,FLOP THAT,FLOP THAT,FLOP THAT!
NY Album of the decade? Fuck outta here
even new york laughed when he said that
Hahahah Gucci sold 2,500 albums. That’s amazing.
But does that include itunes sales as well ?
congrats to my nigga macklemore for getting that indie money. macklemore and k.lamar are going to sell platinum records. wiz,tip,tyga,game,french and wayne flopped real bad
real talk: in 10 weeks if both theese rappers sell the same numbers as they are now it will be a close race to who is platinum first.
@ jstizz real talk
Tip & Wayne did NOT flop
Yes, they did.
I think we got another monster on our hands with french baby! dude is top 3 material. with little to no promotion. give dude credits. hes hotter than mase in his day of bad boy. and again. yall stop sleeping. another week when lil wayne outsells kendrick. i mean lets agree that lamar flopped with this one. wayne been outselling him for 3 months now. damn dude. get it together. ya bish!
how has Wayne been outselling Kendrick for 3 months when his album only been out for 2 months? SMART GUY
@fresh2def you’re very stupid good for nothing idiot
Wow, you’re retarded. French, who’ll never be Top 3, flopped hard. He had non-stop promotion and big name features and he barely sold 50k. Also, Kendrick is outselling Wayne, he didn’t flop. Kendrick’s album sold 905k while Wayne is at 453k. READ before you speak.
i say it every week. its not about what you did. its about what you did for me lately. ya bish? weezy f taking over and he aint even left yet. ya damn bish!
im going to cosign fresh on this
ill throw my cosign in the ring
yup. me too.
Sto co-signing yourself with 3 different names. It doesn’t change the fact that Kendrick outsold Wayne, who flopped and isn’t taking over anything.
cosign fresh
“Another flop for MMG to add to their discography”
At least they have a discography. Where’s G Unit these days?
they just got back from Barcelona doing sold out shows for the X-Games
G-Unit in Barcelona video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NB5x-8vz5gk
“Problem is when you not on the charts its pretty hard to find out what you sold because you sold so little you’re not on the charts”
All they would have to do is go over to Billboard.com to check.
so tell us quoteman what did talib kweli sell this week
Flex looking pretty stupid saying that French is King Of N.Y.!
“how he a boss in any way? he signed to like 4 niccas”
Back when 50 was making millions, he had to answer to somebody. That’s business.
french aint making millions with 49k first week

big guwop don’t care about sles hes still the realest nigga out there
The Yeezus album’s gonna flop. They plan on releasing it on june 18th with absoutely no promotion, not even allowing fans to preorder it.
still do 250k+ no problem
The Yeezus album is not gonna flop. It’ll sell at least +500k off of Kanye’s name alone.
dont forget about all them kardashian fans who are now kanye fans by association
@dentaldamboy you must be smoking mollies if you think kanye is going to flop.
can you really smoke molly? shit i gotta try dat
It could flop by Kanye standards. There is no buzz and his two “contraversial” songs were obvious disingenuous publicity stunts to most people. He’s devolved from a curious, playful genius to an overexposed rich brat. Lets not forget, Cruel Summer bombed.
kanye will sell 200,000 first week
I have to admit that, even though I love Kayne West and always want him to succeed, there is hardly any promotion for an album less than three weeks away. It could flop by Yeezy’s standards.
Im blowing dentaldamboy’s dick from the back while listening to French Montana’s Pop That
FAKE, IM A GANGSTER AND WILL BUST THE FAKES ASS!!
Good joke, fake bitch.
YEAH IM GANGSTA ILL BUST THAT ASSHOLE OPEN,BITCH
BY THAT, I MEAN BUST IN YOUR ASS AFTER I FUCK THE SHIT OUT OF YOU. I’M A GANGSTA IN BED.
SUCKING DICK,AINT WORRIED BOUT NOTHING
ja rule is better than all these irrelevant niggaz yall talkin about.
# RULETALK
Daft Punk outselling these rap niggas.
Damn. MMG flopping again. Disappointing numbers from French. I’m not actually surprised because that album was hot garbage.
Fake, this album sold 2 million unaccounted copies.
This again? You saw the numbers. It flopped selling 50k. There’s no such thing as unaccounted numbers; all sales count.
Ayo, dentalboy. What kinda weed ya smokin that’s makin you say dat crazy shit? Cause I want sum of dat.
French Montana has to be sitting some in shock. WTF happened!? Heck, I’m in shock and I don’t give a rats behind. They really dropped the ball. Instead of putting the album out when he had two popping singles, they waited for things to cool down. Great job guys. That said, I would not have expected better than a hundred the first week. He had not crossed over yet.
Dude, you really need to sit down and plot your strategy and how you plan on giving your career a boost. You also need to be working on the second album NOW and drop it by the end of this year before you completely fall off. I can tell you with such lackluster sales, Diddy already moved on, so I hope you are in control and can just get directly at the top people at Interscope.
Do not get caught up like other rappers thinking you are now a major star and you don’t even notice the bottom falling out as you stay chilling. Your career is ending before it started, so get to work and SAVE YOUR DAMN MONEY!
He really did think he was a big star! He left his wife and son thinking he was this big deal even those she was good looking and with him before his raps started getting any notice.
Cameraman wanna-be rapper
Im amazed French sold that much hes fuckin trash and that album is a shit stain on hip hop bad-boy got the worst team ever MGK French and Red Caf are all fuckin dirt I don’t even know who else is on that shit ass label apart from those 2 ugly fucks that dance with diddy that’s bout it
BIRD MAN HAS SAID HE IS GOING TO BE BUYING COPIES FOR WAYNES ALBUM TO HIT GOLD BY NEXT WEEK!!! AND HE WILL BE PLATINUM BEFORE KENDRICK. ALSO FRENCH MONTANA NEW ALBUM IS DOPE HE SHOULD SIGN TO YMCMB AND HE WOULD DO 300K FIRST WEEK. AND REACH PLAT BEFORE KENDRICK !!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Good joke. Wayne’s never going platinum. French’s new album is garbage. If he went to YMCMB, He’d be another tax write-off and he’d do the same numbers he did now; dude’s never going platinum.
good to see that clown French flop. that’s one nail in the coffin of his career. just a few more to go. dude is past garbage.
Rappers who’s last albums sold more first week than French Montana without all the promo/features/co-signs
Mac Miller 145k
Slaughterhouse 52k
Chief Keef 50k
Tyler the Creator 89k
Machine Gun Kelly 57k
Tyga 54k
Kid Cudi 136k
Kendrick Lamar 242K
J Cole 218k
Nas 149k
ASAP Rocky 139k
Lupe Fiasco 89k
Game 86k
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis 78k
B.O.B. 74k
Them white boys on indies selling more than French LOLOLOLOL
and so are black artists..?
they not independent like the macs (mac miller and macklemore)
Asap Rocky shouldn’t be on this list. Other then that co-sign.
Why shouldnt asap be on the list? He sold more than french
“without all the promo/features/co-signs”
BIRD MAN HAS SAID HE IS GOING TO BE BUYING COPIES FOR WAYNES ALBUM TO HIT GOLD BY NEXT WEEK!!! AND HE WILL BE PLATINUM BEFORE KENDRICK. ALSO FRENCH MONTANA NEW ALBUM IS DOPE HE SHOULD SIGN TO YMCMB AND HE WOULD DO 300K FIRST WEEK. AND REACH PLAT BEFORE KENDRICK !!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Good joke. Wayne’s never going platinum. French’s new album is garbage. If he went to YMCMB, He’d be another tax write-off and he’d do the same numbers he did now; dude’s never going platinum.
you know kendrick is poppin when trolls start comparing sales to him and how hes overrated..thats how you know your on!
He went platinum first week with Tha Carter 3 and almost with tha carter 4.
Still doesn’t mean anything.
Shiiit he might as well be on YMCMB now %90 of his singles have an YMCMB artist. which is why it wouldn’t make a difference if anything he would sell less because him and Machine Gun Kelly are the two first priority artist at Bad Boy (Los deserves more shine then that clown French if you ask me). If he went too YMCMB he would be behind Drake, Nicki Minaj, Wayne and even Tyga on the priority list. At the end of the day you can spray A pile of doo doo with Armani Cologne and put it in A gold plated box, YOU STILL GONNA SMELL THE SHIT COMIN THROUGH AND FRENCH IS A SHIT RAPPER.
Flop Montana. Excuse my Flop.
so what his first album didnt sell that much next time i promise he will hit 200k the first week
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Keep dreaming because French isn’t gonna do those numbers.
You only get one shot at a first impression. He’s dunzo.
hes never gonna have a song bigger than Pop That but watch he will try to recreate it a few times and fail
Remember this moment it represent’s a big shift in hiphop and I think hiphopDX should do an article on it. You have for the first time artist with heavy promotion backed by these big corporation with all this top of the line production and must have mainstream features selling significantly LESS then independent artist with very very little promo. THATS CUS PPL SPEND MORE TIME ON THE INTERNET THEN ON THE RADIO AND TV NOWADAYS. Times are changing you Rich Jews and White guys who run these big ass labels who never gave 2 shits about the culture are loosing your monopoly. Respect too all the authentic hiphop artist out their on the grind who want to see the ACTUAL CULTURE PROGRESS and arnt in it for a quick check.
Well said.
DAAAAMN NOT EVEN 100K, FRENCH??
BUT FUCK IT…WE AIN’T WORRIED BOUT NOTHIN!
SURPRISED TO SEE DAFT PUNK SELLING BIG IN THE US
This makes you wonder…how much would French sell without all the big name features and heavy promotion?…..What if all of his singles were only him…And didn’t Funk Flex say this guy is wearing the Crown in New York right now?…pathetic…
He would literally sell less then 5,000 copies. I’d say Kreayshawn (or however you spell her name)numbers.
No way Excuse My French sold 56k.. that’s still a flop regardless, but NOBODY likes French Montana. Label prob bought 10k copies if not more.
he admitted to having his label buy 1000 copies and he planned to buy 100 for himself LOL
Yeah I know and I died laughing when I saw that but I wouldn’t be surprised if both those numbers were lower… I mean I just don’t know anyone who likes French Montana.
ME, DETNALBOY, FRESH, BOBYAHEAD, AND YEBO ARE THE SAME 14 YEAR OLD SUBURBAN WHITE KID LIVING IN HIS MAMAS BASEMENT. I’M KING TROLL.
LMFAO EXCUSE MY FLOP!!!
Nigga you copy and paste the same material over and over again, you’ve been replaced by me nigga
this dude is trash… look out for his next LP where he tries to redeem himself, ‘Excuse my FLOP’ featuring EVERYBODY.. cause lord know he’s can’t hang on his own.
HIP HOP IS WEAK IF YOU HAVE GARBAGE LIKE THIS GOOFY ASS NIGGA REPPIN’..
Haaaaaannn?
Ay, where’s Vinny? That nigga probably crying in his room right now knowing his idol flopped.
true. he was talking platinum
Yeah Vinny is probably in a corner crying his eyes out. What the funny part is, is he crying cause French FLOPPED or cause theres a black guy in front of him with a 8 inch shlong asking Vinny to suck it…
flop montana
MMGS AND YMCMBM ARE STILL OUTSELLING YOUR FAVORITE ARTISTS. FRENCH STAY WINNING HE WILL BE GOLD JUST LIKE TYGAS HOTEL CALIFORNIA WENT GOLD IN 4 WEEKS. TRINIDAJD JAMES IN 4 WEEKS!!!
Tyga didnt go gold.
And no one on MMG outselling Kendrick Lamar
french ain’t winning only selling 56k. Tyga’s album ain’t gold. Trinidad James only has one gold single. YMCMB/MMG ain’t outselling Jay, Kanye, Eminem, Kendrick, etc.
FAKE!!
hell MMG aint even selling more than Macklemore.
YES THEY ARE OUTSELLING THEM!! LOOK AT WALE DRAKE MEEK MILL RICK ROSS LIL WEEZY SALES. ALL GOLD AND PLATINUM!!! FRENCH MONTANA IS GOING TO FOLLOW IN WEEZYS STEPS AND GO PLAT IN ONE WEEK!!!!
No.
frenchie flopped time for ja rules #ruletalk and fuck fame records to drop, they will shatter record sales
french montana > your favorite rapper
Good joke.
if your fav rapper is riff raff or 50 tyson this statement might be true
Speaking of Trinidad James hes waiting waaaayy too long since the release of All Gold Everything to even announce the name of his debut album never mind dropping it, expect to see his numbers in the 15K-30K range.
..Its hard out here if you wack
when you tryna stay around but you lack (Hustle and flow cadence)
That nigga is gonna end up having a Kreayshawn career; consisting having one huge hit single, waiting forever to drop an album, and selling 5-10K first week. I see it now.
cause he is a one hit wonder….and somebody from def jam is going to get fired when he flops harder than french did
Man there is no good music coming out this month very disappointed
great time to go back and find some new to you old music
12k copies eve!!?? damn you flopped hard!!
damn Wayne is still being outsold by Cracklemore lmfao way too funny, seems he can only go platinum these days with a Carter album, hell even that overrated nigga Kendrick is selling more than Wayne and his only hit single was one without a feature. looks like Aubs is gonna keep YMCMB afloat as always
Actually, Kendrick has 3 hit singles: Swimming Pools, Poetic Justice, and Bitch Don’t Kill My Vibe.
a new carter album likely wouldnt go plat these days either. hes finished
fine i stand corrected, thats even sadder on Wayne’s part, his big single was a hit thanks to Aubs and Future (big surprise Drake helped out, he was the only reason She Will was a hit) MMG sales are sad as fuck too, name one MMG album that went platinum, ill be waiting. J. Cole’s boring ass single is a hit as well, so yeah MMG and YMCMB (with the exception of Nicki and Drake) just stay losing. (of course Birdman is fine money wise)
It’s only one album retard. Let’s see if Macklemore can sell a million in a week, or consistently go platinum for the next # of years. Obviously he won’t so put your pom pom’s away.
Stop hating, bitch nigga.
“Obviously he won’t”
And you based this on what, your hatred for Macklemore?
YES MMG AND YMCMBM OUTSELLING THEM!! LOOK AT WALE DRAKE MEEK MILL RICK ROSS LIL WEEZY SALES. ALL GOLD AND PLATINUM!!! FRENCH MONTANA IS GOING TO FOLLOW IN WEEZYS STEPS AND GO PLAT IN ONE WEEK!!!!
meek mill is not gold
Yessir is quite mentally challenged, he seems not to know math.
nosir
Everything you said are lies.
Excuse the Fuckery of this album
you sound like a hater for real frenchy still got more money then you broke bitch
Too bad this afgani bitch looking nigga can’t use money to buy talent. Call me a hater or whatever but it doesn’t matter how much money you have, if you fucking suck you fucking suck.
The he got money argument is hilarious. Trust you don’t have to ask a dumb person their intelligent level. You just give them a couple minutes and they will let you know on their own, they’re kinda like vegans.
ja rules new album gon push 20mil
##RULETALk
Ja Rule just sold 10 million pre order copies
“a new carter album likely wouldnt go plat these days either”
And you know this based on what, your hate of Lil Wayne?
No, just facts.
hes past his prime. people are getting tired of him
“And no one on MMG outselling Kendrick Lamar”
They don’t need to outsell him.
Cause they’re fading away.
“Still doesn’t mean anything”
Oh but if Macklemore or Kendrick did it you’d be jumping for joy. You can’t have it both ways. If Wayne comes out with The Carter V and it sells a mill in a week or even 700-800k, you have to give him credit.
And they’d still be shit.
When Kendrick Lamar or Macklemore sells a lot of albums, people aren’t using it to justify their talent, but rather happy that a talented artist has reached a mainstream level and can influence mainstream culture.
Sales DO mean something, but when people say it doesn’t matter they are usually talking about skill, which is 100% correct.
“french aint making millions”
Doesn’t matter. He has people to answer to just like 50 did.
not for long. with a debut like this there may not be a second chance
shows that mainstream has gone to shit. I dont fuck with mainstream rap anymore. Everyone flows and delivers the same. I grew up on where mc’s had their own unique style!
These numbers are false. They cant be real, the truth is French sold 156k. This stupid website forgot to put the 1 before the 56.
You sounding really emotional. Lol eat a dick.
no truth is he sold 49,775 and bought 1100 copies of his own album minimum, probably more once he heard those projections
Excuse his flop
hahaha that’s some funny shit
A$AP ROCKY is the king of NY……right now
this album sold 2 million unaccounted copies.
Torrent downloads don’t count.
torrent downloads are free not sold
My mistake. It sold 56k.
#Excuse his flop
“so tell us quoteman what did talib kweli sell this week”
1800, dickless man.
a french band sells more than 300,000 in its first week. not only is hip hop dying american music is too.
First off, its not a band its a group. Second, Daft Punk is known worldwide and have been around since the early 90’s. Know about music before you spew nonsense.
yet another amazingly dumb and uneducated comment by an anonymous
says anonymous
@HipHopFAn or whatever your name is you are retarded. First of all. I referred to daft punk as band because it is a group and consists of more than one person (check ur dictionary fool, what is the difference between a band and a group), Secondly, Daft punk debuted in 1997 not in the early nineties, thirdly, this is the first time daft punk has ever been this big in the US, their last album debuted at 98 in the US, and thirdly you are a MORON!
He’s so mad he posted this twice.
If it’s two people it would be a duo, if it’s three, then it would be a trio. A group would be like 4 people, you idiot. French Montana is fucking awful and deserves the shitastic sales he got, but you can’t base his sales on hiphop/america’s sales a whole, you retard. Daft Punk have been around for a while, they have a huge following, unless you’re a top tier, popular rapper (like Kanye or Hov), you don’t have a shot at outselling them.
Also, I guess you don’t get that techno became ridiculously popular (for whatever reason) since Daft Punk’s last album. It’s popularity is evident in hiphop also, why do you think Molly and EDM/techno bullshit beats are becoming so popular in hiphop now.
nas life is good 150,000 first week. with no radio singe, no high cost music video, with no auto tune BS.
But a well-developed fan base who support him no matter what.
In other news… GUCCI ONLY SOLD 2,500 RECORDS? That’s like selling your album to one section in the Cowboys stadium LMAOO
PAPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE!!!
LAUGHTERHOUSE!!!!!
SAIGON!!!!!
French Montana is human dogshit; I stopped using the paint too because of this cornball.
“You niggas buy the car, We buy the dealership”
-French Montana
With sales like this French couldn’t even buy a Kia dealership!
^^^^LMFAO
Pop That sold a million so he could buy the Kia dealership and a Wendy’s for Ross.
No, it didn’t.
hahahhaha all these broke ass blogger talking shit kill yourselfs
money got nothing to do with anything here. shit music is shit music.
men lie, women lie, NUMBERS DONT LIE
ethered.
Sorry I haven’t commented on here today but I visited dentaldamboy and he showed me there were 2 million unaccounted sales yet the government disregards 90% of the copies.
More lies.
If you’re under the age of 25, you don’t know shit about music. You can say whatever corny, sorry ass shit you want to help you sleep at night, but reality is: YOU DONT KNOW SHIT. No say some gay shit below and show us how bad this comment made you feel.
im 16 years old and i admit i dont know shit besides how to copy other kids and i admit i have no creativity of my own

I’m Quote-Man and I’m a hoe ass nigga with no taste in music.
stop lying everybody knows Pitbull and Birdman make excellent music
loL, I bomb that boy so hard the wolves caught up to the scent of bitchassness!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKOoZz-Aq3A
and yALL dissing games #s?? what a JOKE, HE LEFT ALL THESE FOOLS IN HIS DUST..i TOLD YALL GOLD THE NEW PLATINUM..GAME STAY WINNING..5 ALBUMS DEEP…FULLFILLED HIS INTERSCOPE CONTRACT..DID not get dropped
you say gold is the new plat but you know Games last 2 album have failed to go anywhere near Gold right?
tru but he dont get da hype big sean tyga french get dere all over tv radio yet game’s latest alum outsold all dere debut’s witout much promotion outside cali kinda crazy huh
big sean sold 87k first week, game sold 86k
big sean debut – 87k
game – 586k
yeah in 2005 with 50 cent making hits for him
we talking about last albums
We all know Kreayshawn rules the game right now. She sold a million opening weekend. V Nasty also sold a million opening weekend with her duet album with Gucci.
*facepalm*
the only rapper i can fuck with it is DMX and all the 90’s stuff
hiphopdx is where you come when you dont have shit else in your life to do but hate for no real reason. its worse here than the youtube comment section. shout out to french and every other artist on the charts, at least they livin out their dreams.
french montana is that you?
Shut your bitch ass up you french dick ridin’ ass nigga! living his dreams by dropping a bs album with a hell of a lot of back up and he STILL couldn’t do shit
The reason is these people are making it hard to find actual talent, and destroying the image of the genre.
@HipHopFAn or whatever your name is you are retarded. First of all. I referred to daft punk as band because it is a group and consists of more than one person (check ur dictionary fool, what is the difference between a band and a group), Secondly, Daft punk debuted in 1997 not in the early nineties, thirdly, this is the first time daft punk has ever been this big in the US, their last album debuted at 98 in the US, and thirdly you are a MORON!!
No need to get mad dude, it’s just a message board. First off you got the name right, congratulations. Second, not many people refer to Daft Punk as a band so calm down. Third, as it states on the internets “Daft Punks demo tape given to Macmillan at the rave formed the basis for Daft Punk’s debut single, The New Wave, a limited release in 1994.” Last time I remember 1994 could be early 90’s. Just because an artists debut album comes out a certain time doesn’t mean thats when they started out in music because all artists release music prior their mainstream debut. And lastly, they have been big in the US before, because all their albums have sold well, they have won grammys, and even did the soundtrack to the Tron movie. Just because it’s the first time you’ve heard them doesn’t mean they weren’t big. Peace.
Haha.. anonymous!! Who is the moron now hahaha
Spot on Hip Hop Fan… spot on
It’s too bad for French that 50 didn’t take his bait and proceed with dropping his album on the same day to see who sold more like 50 and Kanye. That would have been the best promotion French could have ever had but 50 too smart for that.
No. Jimmy Lovine is to smart for that. 50 has no say in anything over at Interscope.
Real Bloods in LA (Compton) respect Wayne and got his back.
No real gangster respected Pac. Thats why they terminated his bitch ass for being a fake ass loud mouth.
YMCMB!
Death Row was filled with Bloods
Hey “Boy” you should stop with all these hate messages about a dead person! All that which you are writing everywhere is getting really dumb. Put you life together bro and for once log off the internet and do some thing of value!
Gucci…lmao…gucci sold 2500?,,,, damn only people from his neighborhood bought that shit……oh well…how many times can you talk about a “Trap House” anyway….old news…recycled bullshit
don’t forget he fucking sucks
Tyler outsold EVERYBODY on that list
#OF!!
Times are changing in hip hop…..people are getting tired of subpar garbage rap niggaz….its 2013…there is no reason why niggaz can’t rap worth a damn. Having good beats is not going to good enough anymore…you are going to have some LEVEL OF SKILL… The Gucci’s,,Wakas”Soulja Boys, French Montanas. Trinad Jamess…Chief Keefs..will soon be dinosaurs……They will always have small followings of idiots..and people that cherish ignorance…but Record Labels are going to realize that its just not a good investment.
At the age of 16 Lil Wayne was thuggin in the deadly streets of New Orleans
At the age of 16 Tupac was dancing like a faggot in a tight ass tu-tu
‘Nuff said
lil wayne was a thug in his house…thats it….thats why he shot himself…outside of himself…lil wayne is and was not a threat to no one
since when is daft punk a hip hop album , i’m not hating on daft punk , they are one of my favourites but if you are a hip hop website , keep it hip hop
pharell was all over it. he is hip hop… didn’t you read the article?
as far as EVE goes…it was just bad timing and not a smart move to release a album. She’s NOT in demand…she should have just kept releasing free material and doing unnoficial remixes to try to get her buzz back up. She has been gone to long to try to release an album out of the blue. its amazing she sold what she sold.
LMFAO YALL GOT ME LAUGHING ABOUT YOUR BULLSHIT COMMENTS. I JUST READ SOME WANNABE SMART NIGGA THAT WAITED TO SEE WHAT I WOULD SAY WITH FRENCH ALBUM. THE MAJORITY OF YOU STUPID NIGGAS ARE ON THE WANNABE ELITIST BANDWAGON AND CANT WAIT TO SEE A MMG OR YMCMB ARITST FAIL. IF U THINK FRENCH FLOPPED, PLEASE THINK TWICE BEFORE DISSING THE HOTTEST NEW YORK RAPPER AT THE MOMENT. LEMME PUT OUT SOME FACTS AND STATS FOR U SHEEP NIGGAS SINCE U ON THE REAL HIPHOP BANDWAGON. AKON SOLD 17K FIRST WEEK AND HE ENDED UP SELLING 5 MILLION COPIES. SHAGGY STARTED UP WITH 10K FIRST WEEK AND ENDED UP AT 10 MIL. SO PLEASE KEEP HATING FROM YOUR DAILY 9 TO 5 JOBS WHILE WE GETTIN OUR MONEY
asap sold more so french cant be king
good examples but ure still a fucking moron
bet he has a 9 -5 too
FACTS
– Pac went to a rich kid school.
– Pac had a boyfriend.
– Pac took ballet classes.
– Pac was a ballerina.
– Pac wore a tu-tu.
– Pac had a homosexual tone to his voice before the whole “Thug Life” image he pushed.
Pac was a faggot.
Wayne is a Triple OG Blood.
TROLL
FACT
Pac made classic music. thats all there is to it
5% of Pacs “all eyes on me” album is better than waynes whole discography
Wayne boasts about his Blood Gang ties since 500 Degreez and he hasnt been checked or murked because he is RESPECTED in the Blood Gang commmunity.
Pac hung around with hungry ass niggas that wanted a share of Pacs money. He had NO real friends
Gang members killed his ass for being a faggot ass thug wannabe loud mouth.
Burn In Hell Tupac Amaru Shakur
Long Live Weezy!
this guy is obsessed with Pac while he defends another man who has been seen smooching with another man
I’m not surprised French sold that much….i mean really..What is speicial about French, artist wise? NOTHING….he is just connected and apphiliated with the right people. He is one of the few artist popping from new york and he could only move 50k? Thats becuase he DICK RODE the south to much…if he would have kept his sound “NEW YORK” i think his own city would have rode for him more
i bet joey bada$$ could drop next week and sell just as much
People who sold more first week than French Montana without all the big time promo, billboards in times square, big name features
Mac Miller 145k
Slaughterhouse 52k
Chief Keef 50k
Tyler the Creator 89k
Machine Gun Kelly 57k
Tyga 54k
Kid Cudi 136k
Kendrick Lamar 242K
J Cole 218k
Nas 149k
Lupe Fiasco 89k
Game 86k
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis 78k
B.O.B. 74k
i aint see no billboard in times square
its on french montanas instagram
Lecrae 72K
forgot Ross, he sold 218k 1st week with GFID
Bawse!!!!!
tupac is the biggest phony in the rap game
fuck tupac
he aint bout that thug life he a bitch
ill piss in his grave while his bitch ass mom gives me brain
SUR 13
Chief Keef is that nigga. Illmatic didn’t sell THAT well at the time of it’s release, though real hip-hop fans throughout the generations kept hearing about it and eventually buying it and so it eventaully went platinum. There’s no doubt that Finally Rich will have the same impact since it too is a classic debut.
French Montana is done right outta the gate. Good thing he was on Finally Rich, as that’s the only classic we’ll see him on. Diddy was dumb to sign this fool. Too bad he didn’t get sign Keef before Jimmy got him, but now it’ll be all the more possible for Keef to get on some Dre tracks. Hell, Kendrick didn’t get any Dre beats probably because Dre was saving them for Keef LOL.
HAHAHAHA!!
That’s a joke, right? Finally Rich is not a classic, it’s garbage. Everything you say is a lie.
french still sold more in his first week then snoop lion new cd sold all together
But unlike Snoop, French won’t be able to drop another album, probably ever again.
SNoop already sold millions, its a household name and doesnt rely on music to eat
why the fuck do you hiphop fans care so much about sales? by that logic, Carter 3 is better than Illmatic coz it sold 1mil 1st week.
The Last Nail to Tupac’s coffin.
He has a sextape out. Which is SHOCKING.
In it he is seen receiving ORAL SEX from a girl but thats NOT the shocking part.
In the room other men are seen to be watching him get oral and they seem to be ENJOYING the show.
Not only that but another man is seen to be caressing Pac’s back while he receives ORAL SEX.
SUSPECT BEHAVIOR!!!
Tupac was a HOMO-THUG!
Long Live Weezy!
And you took the time out of your life to scrutinize a bunch of men in a sextape, and constantly re-post this same comment.
SUSPECT BEHAVIOR!!!
Farewell Eve….you wanted to be white and we let you know “they can have you”
Very interesting point!! I said this years ago and once you do what she did its hard to come back. She did a money grab and thats fine but when that tv run was over she had nothing to come back to
Why is that most people who say that Tupac is the best ever don’t know SHIT about Hip hop….Tupac was WACK! Name his best song and I’ll name 5 for each song that you name that are better. And this dude is giving him self credit….20 times!?!?! Shit, I’d say 100 times worse and Pac wasnt that good.
2 Pac – How long will they mourn me
2 Pac – Only god can judge me
2 Pac – Changes
2 Pac – Hennessy
Tupac- Keep Ya Head Up
Tupac- California Love
Tupac- Got My Mind Made Up

Tupac—Every other song by Tupac–Better than every other song by 90% of rappersin todays game.
they very fact you brought up tupac when this article has NOTHING TO DO WITH HIM…shows how relevant and great he still is……
Where did this come from and do you just need attention or a hug? I’m not saying Tupac was the best, certainly not saying Big L was not one of the best, but personally, I never liked Big L’s high voice or his deliver..he was a master at word play though. Here is where Tupac was better than most. He knew how to craft a song and he also deviated from talking about just one thing. Its like every other rapper is a killer/drug dealer and that’s all they can talk about. And he did not just throw words in a verse for the sake of rhyming. He told stories. Lastly, you ever listen to a rap song and its like dude did not end the verse right. Its like he ran out of track and just stopped. A verse if you could picture it is supposed to look like an inverted V. You start low, go high, then come back down again, not flat line.
just a hundred thousand more, and K.dot will be looking at a platinum record
Straight Up….although I think it took him long to reach platinum! At least I coped the album and did my part 😀
lol at french
thats what you get for talking shit about fif #deathblow
French needs to get “Excused” the fuck OUTTA HERE!!! Low sales from a WACK MC dick riding on ERRBODY!!! Excuse my french
He’s not an MC. Never was.
Nas sold double in his first week than French Montana and y’all called it a flop? Excuse My Features is trash
A veteran typically has higher expectations than a rookie.
i like how people say sales dont matter then try to use that against french montana foh with all that french will rebound and go gold next time
no he wont. he never gonna have a song bigger than pop that.
Happy French did not sell. dudes like this NOT selling is great for real HipHop.
and as far as LLCJ and Eve go, i am sure they know by now that you cant just jump in and out of the hip hop game. Very few are good at making hip hop a “part time thing”, it usually doesnt work out.
J. Cole’s album will go platinum in the same amount of time kendricks did
i dont think so.
Ja Rule, pain is love 2, 20 mil sold!!!
lol macklemore still buying hes own albums to stay on charts
Nope. His fans are.
Ja rule sold 20 mil with PIL2, haha, laughin to the bank with this, hahaha ha ha hahahaha (yayo voice)

Ja Rule > 50
Ja Rule > every rapper in the world
Ja rule sold 20 mil with PIL2, haha, laughin to the bank with this, hahaha ha ha hahahaha (yayo voice).
Wow, it’s crazy how much it is talked about Ja Rule. Just shows you how relevant he really is. Everyone is talking about him.

How is 50k copies a flop for a debut?
on murda inc. he wouldve gone platinum already.
just look at the list below of all the arists who sold more with less promo and some of them on indie labels
he had puffy, ross and interscope behind him. shoving him down our throats. singles with nicki, drake, wayne, ross, plus a couple dozen more big name features. he should have sold 150k min with all that backing
Mac Miller 145k
Slaughterhouse 52k
Chief Keef 50k
Tyler the Creator 89k
Machine Gun Kelly 57k
Tyga 54k
Kid Cudi 136k
Kendrick Lamar 242K
J Cole 218k
Nas 149k
Lupe Fiasco 89k
Game 86k
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis 78k
B.O.B. 74k
If mac Miller sells 3 times what you did thats a FLOP
ja rule pil 2 , 20.000k nuff said.
Those albums were back in the day when albums were selling far more than today. 50k copies doesn’t seem like a flop.
those albums are mostly from 2012/2013 maybe one or two from 2011 nice try though
Things change everyday. Today’s album sales aren’t going to be as strong as 2012.
whatever you gotta tell yourself to feel better about french montana bombing.
tyler the creator had no radio singles or half the promo french did and sold 90k LAST MONTH, as in 2013, this year!
Ja Rulism taking over the rap game!
Eve has so much more selling potential then that, she needs a better marketing strategy ALOT OF PEOPLE DIDN’T EVEN KNOW SHE WAS BACK NEVER MIND DROPPING AN ALBUM. SMH AT THE DAY EVE SELLS HALF AS MUCH AS AN ARTIST LIKE SOULJABOY.
fuck E V E its about J A R U L E now!
ja rule is back! ITS MURDAAAAAAAA BABY!!
murda inc is where the moneys at these days.
Rule Talk
At the age of 16 Lil Wayne was thuggin in the deadly streets of New Orleans
At the age of 16 Tupac was dancing like a faggot in a tight ass tu-tu
Nuff said
YMCMB!
Lies.
49K? hannnn!
yeah. it means 56.000 people r stupid as fuck
I don’t like other people’s kids and the fact is that I was not present when they were fucking and the nigga was busting in her raw and shit. That was a good time that I wasn’t present for so why the fuck would I be around for the after effects of it? Kids take time, money and energy and I’m not putting that into some other niggas kids, especially since I don’t have my own. Then like someone said earlier, they have the nerve, a lot of times, to say they’re done having kids. Plus it’s lame to have some other grown nigga with a vested interest in your relationship because you’re going to be around his kid(s) poking around when he shares something with your woman that you don’t. Chicks need to stop having every niggas baby that they been with for three months and shit. The average black chick that you date and break up with will be pregnant three months later by the new nigga and be dating another new nigga by the time she’s 6/7 months pregnant!!
The album is still going platinum, just and Sean Combs.
not even going carboard son
It’s all about jarule now, everyone knows that, #ruletalk
Murder.inc makes artists go platinum. Just look at Ashanti for example, been done goin platinum while she was with IRv Gotti, now… She flops with every single. WHACK SHIT.
JA RULE MURDER.INC, BEST NIGGAZ EVA. RULE TALK
Hey Ja rule troll, when will you actually go tired with those Ja rule comments? Or will you just keep going forever??
Hows Serbia????
Rulizm is stronger than ever before. Almost 2 million members of ja rule nation worldwide. #ruletalk
What?? i’m not from siberia lol, i’m actually born and raised in the US, but who gives a fuck….
My dearest ja rule army,i need to chill once again,hiphopdx is actin funny again. will be back soon #ruletalk
That Ja Rule troll is probably from the Netherlands, in one comment he wrote ‘Ja Rule voor altijd’ which translates into ‘Ja Rule forever’
Naw son, we in the US and we get laid by American women with our leader Ja Rule
ja rule army worldwide
I’ll be going forever, as long as I’m alive, as long as I’m alive. JA RULE IS MY GOD. JA RULISM IS MY RELIGION. MURDER.INC IS MY HOME. RULE TALK!!!
“hes past his prime. people are getting tired of him”
So tired they’re about to help him go gold.
when he should have been platinum a month ago by his own standards
ja rulism is not a religion, its a spiritual experience. #ruletalk
so what if kendrick lamar sold more french still got the streets on lock this was a learning experience for him as well
stay on topic #ruletalk
how can you have the streets on lock if you only sell 50k first week
clearly the streets dont care about french. they listen to him if it comes on in the club but no one rushing out to buy his compilation album
He should of signed only to Ross. Sad ending. Hip hop rule 1001. Signing to Puffy is a death sentence…..
You think Officer Ricky could have saved him from flopping? Not likely
murder inc is taking over again.
JA RULE PIL 2 = CERTIFIED 12x PLATNIUM… french montana.. not even gold
JA RULE X HARRY FARUD JULY 16TH 6MILL

jeah murder inc takin over. #fooltalk
“This comment was removed for violating our Ja Rule content policies.” HAHHAHAHAHAHA
Good Ish
Yeah Tyler sold more than Montana but that was back when albums still sell. No hiphop artist can reach that sales amount today.
what the fuck are you talking about?.. “that was back when albums still sell”.. um, wolf just came out in april, almost two months ago.. i guess that’s WAY back in the days for you..
Things change drastically in a day let alone 2 months. One day it could be sunny outside and the next day it will be raining. Same thing with album sales.
are you on crack?.. you’re comparing daily weather to album sales?.. haha.. most albums have been selling pretty low for the past few years now.. don’t know where you’ve been.. but go ahead, say whatever to make montana look good and help you sleep at night..
I can guarentee you Kayne West will flop hard for his latest album. So will Eminem.
french fans are retarded just like him
Kanye and Eminem will never flop.
Unless I see promotion of Yeezus, it will bomb hard.
This is Kanye we’re talking about. Even with little promo, his album will do at least +400k 1st week; he won’t bomb.
“when he should have been platinum a month ago by his own standards”
Considering Human Being I went gold, it’s not a shock that II is about to go gold as well. People seem to prefer The Carter series.
no they used too
“he should have sold 150k min with all that backing”
That’s a fantastic prediction in theiry, but people don’t buy albums anymore. Even if Montana’s album would have been great it would have still done the same #’s.
“tyler the creator had no radio singles or half the promo french did and sold 90k LAST MONTH”
He’s got a stronger fanbase than Montana.
Exactly. Tyler, the Creator, you didn’t hear shit about his album, he doesn’t have a massive single like “Pop That” whatsoever, and he sells twice as much first week, and he’s basically independent.
“Nope. His fans are.”
All his fans are in AA and don’t currently buy albums just six packs.
oh, and you know this how?..
I wonder if Ja Rule reads the hhdx comment boards often.
Ja Rule army general here
Can’t post so much these days sorry, hiphopdx actin funny
RULE ARMY WORLDWIDE!!!!
And he does read them,i know ja rule personally,its kinda funny when i see people trying to guess where i’m from,if i know rule personally then you already know where i’m at!
Ja Rule could make a slinky go upstairs
Flop That,Dont Stop,Flop That, Dont Stop,Dont Stop!!!!!
Flop That,Dont Stop,Flop That, Dont Stop,Dont Stop!!!!!
Excuse this flop
If Carter V doesn’t go platinum then yes, people will officially be tired of Lil Wayne.
They’re already tired of him.
Ja Rule once solved a rubics cube in just under five minutes flat.
More like 5 mili seconds, that Ja Rule is a smart nigga!
Seriously anybody whose surprised that French Montana flopped should get their urine tested because that was obvious since day one that no one was buying what he was sellin’
Im surprised no one is talking about Gucci’s flop sales. How did his sales sink so low?
he didnt really have a lot of promo though so no one even cares. most of his shit flops like that.
Hopefully, it will mean Gucci’s career will end.
he will be back in jail by the end of summer believe that
He sold 400,000 once, so selling a few thousand is a steep decline, but I don’t think Gucci cares.
of course he dont care. he tatted a fucking ice cream cone on his face!
The reason why nobody mentioned Gucci Mane sales is because no one cares. He killed his career by beating up his fans and beating up Women and turning on his only homie that was some-what relevant at the time Wack flocka the combination of all those things coupled with not being able to stay out of jail finished him… and Mark My words His career if not finished will never be the same again 100%
Gucci Manes record didn’t sell not because he can’t but because they lacked promoting it. Did YOU see any big ads pushing Guccis album? I didn’t
I don’t care if Gucci’s album was digital only and without as much promotion but he still had his fans and Trap House 3 has some big names like Rick Ross on there. What undid him is the shit that he done that made Chris Brown like an angel in comparison.
gucci a certified gangsta that comes with the territory hes not losing fans over his criminal record.
LOL. Good joke. His fans doesn’t even buy his shit.
yall dont think its the label? haha funny. its the label montana is on interscope cares for no rap besides em. badboy is rb now. so u had cheif 50k interscope 50kyelawolf interscope 50k mgk bad boy red cafe no drop flop bad boy. its the label and he waitin after havin hits. so his buzz died down.
so why kendrick sell 242 000 first week hes on interscope too no excuses
“so why kendrick sell 242 000 first week”
There’s always going to be somebody who shocks the charts. There aren’t many Kendrick Lamars out there though.
Kendrick only sold cuz he was on the after math machine, not only that but all the hype that the media (such as HHDX , Worldstar, any other hiphop site) really pushed the album for him. It is an “Alright” album, but the media has brainwashed people to believe this album is one of the greatest things ever which it’s not, and people believe it.
fuck outta here
french is on interscope just like kendrick, he had BAD BOY AND MAYBACH MUSIC machine behind him, claimin this shit was a classic, best album in a decade and look what happened
French Montana is the best rapper and fathers and sons kiss on the lips all the time.
False. French Montana is NOT the best rapper alive and fathers and sons do not kiss on the lips all the time; that shit is gay.
HAHAHAHA, French Hannah Montana, you faggot!! You suck, you flopped you dumb fuck. And how much of a faggot dickhead must he feel like, knowing he claimed he was gonna have the best album of the decade and then sell 50,000 units. What a fuckin clown! Now he says “he doesn’t care about sales”…FOH, you talentless, sellout, wackass muthafucka. Leave New York, you don’t belong there you faggot. Macklemore sold half of what you sold this week, even though his album’s been out for what, 8 or 9 months now? Pshahaha. And Kendrick sold that much because he’s a QUALITY artist, who puts out QUALITY music that’s commercially viable.
Gucci Mane, 2500 copies?! LOL!!!! WTF is that about? How does this loser have so much money by the way? Another question. How does Rick Ross’ wackass have so much money too? Doesn’t make sense to me.
the short answer is they dont have as much as they want you to think. rental cars, fake jewellry
Rick Ross is worth $197 million dollars.
not ever will he be worth half that
“french is on interscope just like kendrick, he had BAD BOY AND MAYBACH MUSIC machine behind him”
So what? 50’s on Interscope and can’t get an album out. Fact is the labels don’t push most albums anymore. French was never going to do huge numbers anyway, but the fact Pop That was a platinum single should tell you that his album tanking wasn’t all his fault.
Pop That is gold, not platinum.
apparently it finally went plat within the last week or two after over a year LOL
And where’s your proof that it went platinum?
i saw a web clip where they brought out the platinum plaque during one of his shows or something,
BS.
What’s wrong with 50k copies? This album will go plantimum eventually.
no it wont dawg, wont even go gold
When you got half of the industry on your album co-signing you and every hip-hop site and every network is promoting your album with ads, 50k is a massive failure. Also, it’s not going platinum or gold. It’ll be at 200k at the most.
Snoop Dogg did worse than him. So did LL Cool J.
they both sold millions and made certified classics and have lasted 20+ years. they had nothing to prove. french did
Snoop dogg and ll cool j have over accounted their sales just to make them look good.
Snoop and LL’s sales are legit; there’s no such thing as over accounting. Unless you got evidence to back up your claims, shut the fuck up.
IM THE FUCKING ACCOUNT FOR YMCMB!! I FUCKING KNOW THAT THE COPIES FOR SNOOP DOGG AND LL COOL J WERE OVERACCOUNTED AND ALSO CAME FROM COPIES THAT WERE MEANT TO GO TO WAYNES ALBUMS!! HOW ABOUT YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP AND GET A LIFE BITCH!!
Calm down before you have a heart attack. But seriously, nobody believes you. If that’s true, then I’m the President of the United States. You have no proof/evidence to back up your claims; all you have is your words which isn’t enough. Snoop and LL’s sales are all legit (there’s no such thing as over accounting) and all they sold goes to them and not anyone else. It’s funny how you tell me to shut up and get a life when YOU should do the same thing.
I know Obama is the president dumbass. I also know Im the accountant for ymcmb. I saw that many of the sales of IANAHB2 were being accounted as 20/20 experience sales. He’s a wack pop artist too.
Stay living in fantasyland, kid, where you make up fairy tales to make your life easier. We know you’re lying. You’re not an accountant for anyone. Your claims are a bunch of lies with no proof. All of INAHB2’s sales are counted like how you see them in this article; not even gold. All of sales for JT’s album (who’s not wack) are legit and come from him. Get a life.
Who’s we? You and your imaginary personas? Im an accountant for ymcmb. BTW, Im not in fantasyland. That’s at disneyland. I know how sales work and that IANAHB sold closer to a million while JT only sold 200k opening week. JT is wack and wayne is dope. Like it or not, respect my opinion.
group Are you the account for the Blueprint group or YMCMB? I’ll ask Tez and Gee Roberson about how their “accountant” posts on hiphopdx and see what they say.
Im the damn accountant for ymcmb. And fathers and sons kiss all the time. Wayne rules and is the most successful artist EVER on the billboard 200 chart.
Stay lying and making up lies. You’re not an accountant, you don’t know how sales work, JT (who’s dope, not wack) sold a million first week, Wayne (who’s wack, not dope) only sold 200k with INAHB2, fathers and sons don’t kiss all the time, Wayne doesn’t rule, and he’s not the most most successful artist ever on the Billboard 200; he’s not even close.
Im a fucking accountant, Wayne charted had the most songs on billboard 200 out of all artists.
You’re not a fucking accountant. The Billboard 200 tracks albums, not songs, you dumbass.
“they both sold millions and made certified classics and have lasted 20+ years. they had nothing to prove”
Yeah, ages ago. They have everything to prove, especially Snoop who has fallen off big time.
Only a kid would say that. They already made millions and don’t have to prove anything.
