Star Trak/Interscope Records singer Robin Thicke achieved his first #1 album in a decade-long career. After a decline in first-week sales and chart positioning on 2011’s Love After War, the Los Angeles, California native bounced back in a big way with Blurred Lines. Thicke edged out Five Finger Death Punch by a margin of over 50,000 units.
Also entering the Top 5 was Tech N9ne with his 13th studio album, Something Else. This Strange Music effort entered at #4, matching 2011’s All 6’s & 7’s chart performance. Something Else out-sold the 11th LP by nearly 2,000 units, making it a career benchmark for the present-day king of independent Hip Hop.
In Terms Of Sales, Tech N9ne Is Something Else
Tech N9ne’s third studio LP in approximately two years marks a career best for the Kansas City, Missouri musical icon. Selling over 58,000 first-week units, the album chased Jay Z’s rankings with Magna Carta Holy Grail. On Tech’s 13th studio effort, the onetime 816 Boyz/The Regime standout worked with Game, Cee-Lo Green and Big K.R.I.T., among an extensive list of collaborators. The LP features single “So Dope,” which features Tech’s artist Wrekonize (of ¡Mayday!), in addition to Atlantic Records sensation Snow Tha Product and Twisted Insane.
Largely produced by Tech’s go-to Seven, the album also includes musical contributions from Memphis, Tennessee producer Drumma Boy, and onetime Kurupt hit-maker Fred Wreck.
There Are No Blurred Lines About Robin Thicke’s First #1 Album
Robin Thicke’s sixth studio album (and fifth major label effort) Blurred Lines gave the longtime Hip Hop artist collaborator and Star Trak Records artist his first #1. The LP features involvement from Thicke’s longtime label backer Pharrell Williams, as well as other Interscope Records star producers will.i.am and Timbaland.
Both of the album’s singles have featured Hip Hop acts, with the title track “Blurred Lines” featuring T.I. and its producer Pharrell, and “Give It 2 U” featuring another Interscope-backed Cali kid in Kendrick Lamar. The first boasted a N.S.F.W. video that went viral, with topless appearances by models Emily Ratajkowski, Jessi M’Bengue, and Elle Evans.

wheres kendrick?
this is the first week since GKMC released in october that he hasnt been on here!
i would guess he sold around 5k this week and should cross the million mark by the end of the month
ace hood flop French flop tya flop wayne trash music khaled flop rich gang flop
Kanye is going to gold next week Finally its such a good album I dissapointed but some ppls reaction to it tho, gold nowadays is still a success, although his Platinum album streak in north america looks like its over. unfourtunatley, whatever still the greatest right now and my Favorite all-time in IMO.
the greatest right now?
You read it right..The best out right now Yeezy Season
Nope Yeezy’s “Big Brother” HOV stll killin him
Look at jay-z sales this week compared to Kanye! what a difference
its all roc nation
Tech 9
Tech 9 outselling y’all fav major label rappers smh
who?
yeah thats jokes on young money and bad boy/mmg!!!
tech will max out at 95k
hes indie so thats all profit he making more than french montana, tyga and ace hood
Wait? Who’d he outsell besides Ace Hood?
french montana, tyga and rich gang
wale flopped
Wale shitted on Yeezy this week.
^^^^Yeah right Yeezus has more then double his sells and Kanye released the album without a lead single or video #Epic Fail
497k is not double 278k!! go back to math class yeezus would need to have sold 556k for your statment to be true
HAHAHAHAHAHA!! Tech Nine bombed selling less than wayne. His label about to drop him and YMCMB stays winning.
Wow, you’re retarded. Tech N9ne did not flop; he’s a independent artist. Him selling 58k is good. Also, he can’t get dropped from his label because he OWNS it. YMCMB are losing, not winning.
Nah Homie thats his own label! He aint flop you crazy. It’s independent money! No middle man.
An independent artist on his own label with no radio play and no marketing selling 58K the first is considered flopping? Go sit down and STFU, d*ckrider!
Tech Nine doesn’t own the label, that’s lies from tech nine. Fontana owns it and can drop tech nine at any time. 58k copies is terrible and he has to pay a hefty distribution fee to fontana and his producers get paid as well. It sold less than Wayne, 2 Chainz, Rich Gang, and Ace Platinum.
Wow, you’re stupid. Tech N9ne does own Strange Music. He can’t be dropped. 58k is great, especially since he’s an independent artist. He keeps all the money he makes. Something Else outsold Flop Gang, Ace Wood, Flop Montana, and Tyga Woods.
Fontana is going to drop Tech Nine’s ass and he will have to find a new label. 58k copies is terrible for any artist. He has to pay all the expenses. Rich Gang, Ace Hood, French Montana and Tyga all sold more copies than he has.
You’re making up more bullshit. Tech N9ne owns Strange Music, HE CAN’T BE DROPPED!! 58k is great for any independent artist. He’s in charge of everything and tours all year. He outsold Flop Gang (24k), Ace Wood (32k), Flop Montana (49k), and Tyga Woods (50k).
Don’t feed the trolls.
Fontana can drop strange music. 58k is terrible Rich Gang went platinum 1st week, ace hood went gold, Montana is at 2x platinum, and tyga is at 2x platinum as well.
He bombed? He debuted at number 4 with no radio play. He’s an independent artist. And in his first week he out sold what that Rich Gang shit has sold collectively. Is math really that hard for you?
58k copies is a bomb considering macklemore outsold him. Rich Gang sold a million 1st week.
idk why you keep humoring this kid. Stop replying and he’ll leave his room and go outside for once
tech 9 pays noone.. drake pays wayne and baby and prob mack maine..so 58k in sales = 150k for drake to make the same amount of money..
all you fuckers flopped.
Wack generation lmao
Tech N9ne is the only one on this list that doesn’t have a song on the radio. He still sold 58k his first week, independent, can’t hate on that.
what song does mac miller have on the radio?
i hear him on sirius xm but they play tech too
He’s talking about local radio, not satillite.
so what song does mac miller have on local radio
mac’s song with ariana grande is played all the time…
damn tech n9ne is a industry beast. kids saying he flopped are retarded. own label, own distro, in house production. hes making STUPID money. tours all year. tech n9ne is definitely more caked up than most rappers getting spins. hes eclipsed the e-40 bay area do it yourself niggas and is probably in master p territory with no signs of slowing down. hes like 40 plus yrs old still doing it. im not familiar with a lot of his newer work but obviously someone is. good look for him.
Don’t forget merchandising….Self-made millionaire
Tech Nine doesn’t own the label. Fontana owns it and they are about to drop him. He has to pay his guests and producers.
Also, K Dot bombed hard as he did not even make it to this week’s charts.
Tech N9ne does own Strange Music, dumbass. Look it up. He can’t be dropped. Also, Kendrick did not bomb, especially when his album outsold all the other albums and he’s still in the Billboard 200.
I talked to Tech Nine during Tha Carter IV sessions and he said that he doesn’t own the label but Fontana does. Kendrick bombed hard.
You’re making up more bullshit. Tech N9ne owns Strange Music and Kendrick did not bomb.
Nah Lil wayne bombed hard, and 9600 for 33k total means Rich Gang bombed too that’s not even 10% of Kendricks total sales and that’s his debut(on a major). So if bringing Kdot slow week makes you feel better about Young Money flopping then enjoy your delusions, but they are just like G unit/Murder Inc./No limit and all those other crews nobody admits to ever liking after they fall off even tho a few years back you were prolly riding hard for them doing what you do now. lmao!!!
What are you talking about? Rich gang went platinum 1st week. How is that a bomb?
Even they curbed the grade Rich Gang did not go plat, sorry man. Matter of fact if that was true you would’ve been talking about by now, you would be trying to get your black belt in bukkake from them the way you be on they dicks.
I don’t mean they curbed the grade. Im ean it sold over a million copies.
I guess 24k the first week then 9k the next is the new platinum. I didn’t know my bad.
Rich Gang sold over a million. OVER A MILLION.
No, they didn’t, bitch.
A million? Is this like what, dog year criteria? lol
STOP SUPPORT THE DEVIL WORSHIPPING! #BOYCOTTECHN9NE
Hi there, The Joke-rr. Now you can get the fuck out of the Internet.
would love to see some proof of this claim, dark imagery isn’t any sort of valid proof, there’s plenty out there who use dark imagery for film, music, and media, but do they get the same treatment you’re throwing at Tech N9ne?
Drop some facts if you’d like to make a valid point please
So cool to se macklemore out selling these satanists!
God will always overcome the devil!
Truth!
Tech n9ne is a satanic bitch!
Checkout i’m not a saint or EBAH and if you heard those songs before actually pay attention this time.
tech n9nes net worth is over 8 million so he aint flopped
more than ace hood and french montana put together
macklemore is mainstream shit and radio friendly. thats why he “outsells” everybody.
but that doesnt tell anything about quality. macklemore is just mediocre and average. nothing special and not hiphop with his toys’r’us instruments.
even robin thickes album sounds better than macklemores…
tech9 shows how decent hiphop must sound like.
tech9 > all
but it seems, bieber-pop has taken over and every1 is listening to drake/macklemore now.
what toys r us instruments?
macklemore and drake are bieber-pop?
you are a hater let the man do his thing no one forcing you to listen
Cool story, bro.
but royce da 59 is the best
Haahhahahhahaahahahha @ YMCMB’s flop. Finally most people realized that they make bad music.
Yeezus is going gold next week. Can’t believe he even did that much with a lackluster album with no lead single or video. This dude tried to sabotage himself and still did decent.
GKMC is off the charts. No platinum plaque then.
He’s already platinum. I dnt know why hiphop dx aint showin it
hes still on the charts hes on hhdx charts which means nothing, i guarantee he sold around 5k this week
Robin Thicke also had an album named “Something Else” which debuted at number 4. Now tech releases an album with the same name and same chart debut. I smell a conspiracy
macklemore / drake = bieber pop
every1 in here is into bieber-pop music, sad story 🙁
dont support this satan rap!!!
Yeah, he’s truly a devil worshiper.. C’mon now.
“YMCMB & Friends”
…Sounds like a giant jerk off fest. Faggots
fuck tech
he so mainstream now he fucking on xbox live
Shut your nonsensical ass up.
all of you saying tech n9ne doesnt own strange and fontana is gonna drop him are complete idiots. tech and travis oguin own strange 50/50. fontana is there distribution thats it. strange is here to stay selling way more than half the mainstream artist that dont get any of there album money. get your facts straight morons
Haters saying kendrick won’t go plat. He’s right next to the finish line, release one more single and GKMC will pass 1 mill with ease.
Hes been platinum for like a month or 2 now.
No artists celebrates “shipping platinum”. When he “sells” platinum we’ll hear about. There’s a difference.
@Anonymous
1 million sold, I already know he shipped a million. They are both different milestones in a rappers career.
Tech has legit rhymes and flow, but all his beats are wack
listen to his first 3 or 4 albums, more of a classic hip hop feel
all his albums are wack
Rich Gang shits over nine’s debut.
Good joke.
WE DEPRESSED!!!
Not just what I think but the sales of rich gang triumph over tech nine//
Rich Gang came out last week though lol. Tech had a much better first week than Baby and Friends
WHERE THE FUCK IS CKMC AT???
Where’s Kendrick?
This chart is just a selection of the top 5 current and top 5 past released… Ill try and get the whole top 200 sales for this past week!
Kendrick is still there!! Don’t misread this, its just the way HipHop DX gets a rise out of us, but don’t worry, imma provide the proper stats!
hold up g!
Gone.
Great to see Tech N9ne pussing good numbers. People calling him satanic and shit clearly dont know about the english language – I dare anybody to post some “satanic”-versus he spit troughout these years? People just dont know how to relate.. And people who’s saying he’s only gonna push 100.000 – Haha! 100.000 sold albums independent is a whole lot better than a major artist pushing 500.000 or 2.000.000 for that sake…
PS. I’m only wainting for Andre3000′ solo album!
Rich gang overpowered tech nine.
OMG J cole is really outselling Kanye wow didn’t see that coming
Yet Cole won’t sell the millions Kanye already has.
I co-sign the response post. We all can see Kanye pissed away this album and I’m one of the people that think its a 7/10 album. But really he obviously went out of the way to do some totally different type of material and promotion. Maybe a slight #Fail but based on the charts not totally
Kanye first album that might not hit the platinum status Yeezus its time to head back to your roots buddy no more these I am God type of B.S
He can think he’s God..Thats fine and all but pick some regular soul or dope beats and go in. Something tells me he will.
As an accountant for YMCMB i can confirm that we are selling high numbers of recrods. Rich gang just went plat in its 2nd week! Ace hood about to go gold by next week. Weezy still killin em and is nearly plat also. Kendrick bombed so hard. his flop album couldnt even reach platinum and is now off the charts. tech nine flopped couldnt even crack 100k first week. gay-z cant even go plat look how many weeks its taking him, his album is bombing. Kanye flopped too that wack nigga cant even go gold
LMAO!! That second sentence though!
LMAO!! Can’t even finish reading the whole thing after the second sentence!
Tech N9ne is caking right now. He is his own label, distribution, and merchandising, so its all money in, no money out. He’s not the greatest rapper, but his business decisions are paying big time, and thats always good to see.
You do realize he splits the money with Gunn. They also have to tour 365 days a year to make those millions. I’m sure it’s a good life, but all these albums still come and go.
better than signing a 360 deal and flopping on a major and walking away with nothing

It sold a million not 33k.
tech 9s album is amazing
tech is a devil worshipper . fuck him!
#FUCKFAME
FUCK TECH
Well, hip hop is officially over guys. Macklemore is gonna hit platinum before Kendrick.
Its a sad day to be a fan of the genre. RIP Hip Hop.
GAME BEEN FUCKED SINCE EM LEFT IN 2006
macklemore makes hip-hop for people who don’t like hip-hop. the only reason those people listen to “hip-hop” is because of macklemore. RIP hip hop 🙁
TECH FELL OFF AFTER ALL 6’S AND 7’S
EVERYTHING AFTER HAS BEEN WHACK
FUCK STRANGELAND AND FUCK THE TECHNICIANS
I SNAPPED MY K.O.D DVD TOUR IN HALF AND THREW MMY AUTOGRAPH IN THE GARBAGE
FUCK EM
at least you gave your money to tech for that stuff before you broke it
HAHA FUCKING STUPID BITCH I CAN USE CAPS TOO
Hahahaha Kendrick isn’t even listed.
KENDRICK WHACK TO THEY DONT KNOW HOW TO MAKE HIP HOP
how are you gon laugh at kendrick when he’s almost plat? lil wayne and kanye are struggling to go gold in todays climate.you my friend are a hater, you find pleasure in other peoples failures.
Fuck yea Tech N9ne!
LMAO @ the one hater pretending to be different people talkin shit bout Tech N9ne!
“33k copies wont even pay for the features and beats”
I suspect they’ll be ok.
yeah because they werent gonna pay for any of that anyways. thats the YMCMB business plan
Tech N9ne is the illest!
why his music suck then
SLAUGHTERHOUSE FIRST ALBUM BETTER THAN EVERY ALBUM ON THAT LIST
“Rich Gang came out last week though lol. Tech had a much better first week than Baby and Friends”
Yet Baby has a hundred million in the bank while Tech has maybe 10.
yet baby kisses boys on the lips and tech isnt a fruity ass homo fake blood
He only kisses his sons.
Fake blood??? Baby a real piru since he was born
Birdman’s not a real blood and he kisses men on the lips all the time.
SO IS SECTION 80
BLACK HIPPY DOPE AS FUCK THEY JUST GOT KEEP IT HIP HOP
“Hes been platinum for like a month or 2 now”
No he hasn’t. His label isn’t even acknowledging it.
they did 2 months ago fool
“This weekend is turning out to be a very exciting one for Kendrick Lamar. On Saturday evening, the rapper, who is set to perform at the BET Awards tonight (June 30), was presented with a plaque for the Platinum certification of his major label debut, good kid, m.A.A.d city.
Following his performance at the BET Experience music festival in Los Angeles, Lamar attended an after party where Interscope Records and Top Dawg Entertainment unveiled the shiny memento.”
sounds like his LABELS acknowledged it by giving him the fucking plaque dumbass
the guys who says hes a devil worshiper, are massive pussies who cant deal with raw stuff.
fucking emotional pussies, please listen to some bieber-pop and stop destroying hiphop.
tech9 = king
95% of comments complaining about devil worshipping of tech9 = fkn pussies, pls burn urselves
cosign!
he’s wack as fuck. i feel sorry for you.
Lol macklemore got the biggest hip hop album of the year!!!! Accept it haters!!! Macklemore sold more albums than ur favorite rappers combined!!!!
Dumb niggas
mackelmore dropped last year though
lol
macklemore makes hip-hop for people that don’t listen to hip-hop.
so does wayne, nicki and drake whats your point?
That’s great for Tech N9ne….Tech got that independent game on lock.Tours non-stop, selling out merchandise left and right, having his own distribution center. Smart artist and smart business man to boot.
Congrats. Keep on grindin’ dude.
Follow Endless Ambition Apparel on instagram. Dropping real soon.
endless_ambition017#
The night he got the plaque he still hadn’t sold 1 million copies. This is a fraud.
You get the plaque for shipping 1,000,000 copies not selling.
And 900k of those copies have still not been sold yet.
980k sold as of last week
“yet baby kisses boys on the lips and tech isnt a fruity ass homo fake blood”
No, just a bad father with a fascination for the occult. I don’t care if Baby gives CPR to Ace Hood’s anus. He’s still more successful, and is doing all this in the mainstream instead of hiding out in the basements of America, selling T shirts to stoners, and cranking one forgettable album after another.
what kind of loser calls a man hes never met a bad father? What makes you say that anyway? Tech has made numerous songs about his kids which shows they stay on his mind and he provides for them financially so if anything it would lead me to believe hes a great dad despite being on the road a lot.
and why the fuck does it matter if he makes money in the mainstream or in the underground? your whole post is moronic.
macklemore selling out.
so poor for hiphop. such a faggot trying to sound hiphop but yet fails so hard.
hiphop sux these days, if guys like macklemore can sell out.
How the fuck did he sell out? He’s not making shitty pop music like Wayne and Nicki.
The last 3 days he’s been going HARD for his heroes, but THAT DAY, he was having this “marvelous life”. Coincidence? Nope, he was HIDING. LOL
So much respect to a real nigga .. Good shit Tech N9ne, you be grindin and shit be payin off homie
we need the eminem that was on devils night
fuck tech
D12 is better than tech n9ne
Only Em & Proof was nice from D12. Strange Music has way more talent.
^^ not true at all
Swifty is ill and Kuniva was pretty good too. That being said comparing a group to one person is unfair, and Tech N9ne is a better artist than everyone in D12 minus Em.
^^
tech n9ne is a wack artist who is good at brainwashing dumb people with his gimmicks.
all of D12 was dope, except Bizarre, but he was still funny sometimes at least
That’s a joke, right?
tech dont deserve the buzz he got
either does kendrick
Please, tell us who deserve the buzz? Tech is working too hard for being ignored.
The OP is a hating ass mainstream bandwagon fan who likes YMCMB and MMG.
Dwamn Tech N9ne kill it
One of the top lyricts of all time..
I know Tech N9ne fans overdo it, but to say he’s wack means you don’t know shit about hip hop.
he’s wack, and i know a lot about hip hop
even though you don’t show any of it because you think posting “and i know a lot about hip hop” makes you an expert. Fuck outta here boy
As an accountant for YMCMB I can confirm that the sales for Rich Gang were underaccounted. We had already received over 900k pre-orders for the album and they will be accounted for in next weeks sales. Kanye bombed cant even hit gold. Jay-Z bombed he got outsold by a pop singer! Kendrick lamar bombed cant even hit platinum his sales have declined each week.
Wayne still outselling niggas. YMCMB have 4 albums on the billboard 200! that is why we run the industry. which other label has that many albums charting this high? and selling multi platinum records. ONLY YMCMB
Everything you say are lies, dentalbitch.
Macklemore going plat?
Not my type of rap music but good for him.
I respect his work ethic…
Tech N9ne is sexy!
Support Gay Marriages & Marijuana!
Are you THE Finnish iFag? You seem to go by the same name; SMB.
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 jr.
I wouldn’t count No Ceilings, Like Father, Like Son (because of Birdman) and Tha Carter III as classics, but The Suffix, Dedication 2, Da Drought 3 and The Dedication definitely are classics. Tha Carter III would’ve been a classic if it had contained the songs that were originally recorderd for Tha Carter III, but sadly they got leaked. For example: Killing Me, Pray to the Lord, When They Come For Me, Gossip, I’m Me, World Of Fantasy, Light Up My (La La La), Trouble, Help, Talk It Over, Something You Forgot…..
Forgot to mention that Tha Carter II definitely IS a classic & Wayne’s best album.
you guys dont know what a classic is

just stop strange music stan.
you are the worst type of hip hop fans, i swear
he’s not lying though strange music has a lot of talent
Nice one Tech… They forgot K-Dot this week!!! WTF!!!
TECH N9NE!
Congrats.
Good for Robin Thicke. About time he took the charts for albums and not the single. He’s probably hittin’ Paula Patton from the back while singin’ about his #1. He’s got it too good
I’d eat glass and piss blood for two weeks just to have nicki fart on my face. real talk
i dunno about the glass and pissin blood but she count fart on me too
lol ACE WOOD.. dude is too generic. CHANGE YOUR STYLE NIGGA, then maybe people will buy your albums.
probably not
as and accountant for young money i can confirm i like drake ramming dick up my ass while sucking lil gayne’s dick. we like to change positions once in a while, and then we will usually go to the studio and i usually masturbate with the microphone while i finger drake and lil gayne at the same time.
I hope all you strange music stans realise that 58k isn’t really that much.
Tech N9ne isn’t really that popular, hate to break it to you.
I don’t care if his not popular, because I only care about his great music. If he happens to sell almost 60k in the first week, that’s just a nice bonus.
58k is more than rich gang sold, more than ace hood sold 3 weeks later LMAO! just as much as french montana sold with a platinum radio single and the whole industry featured
i think 58k is pretty damn good for an indie artist
For a independent album that’s alot shithead. If it wasn’t for you fucks downloading albums instead of buying like good people he woulda sold double that.
thats assuming we downloaded his album for free… and i know i didnt
Yo I don’t normally comment, but are you Out of your F?!$ING Mind!!!!!!! Wayne has the most classics! First of all when the hell did we start counting mix tapes as classic albums. There’s a difference between dropping hot verses on random beats then making songs and a complete body of work (albums)… I have been a jay z fan since before Nas change the flow of rapping with the great hip hop classic iLmatic! But I don’t count all Jays albums classics. You need to understand classic albums does something big when they drop, they impact the game in big ways changing the way everybody does there craft, or pushing the hip hop genre in a greater place, or introducing a new sound and classic albums puts you in a space when your no longer competing against rappers but your competing against your own body of work. Wayne is still being compared to other rappers he’ s not classic I give him one classic album at most.
i agree, wayne has zero classics.
he put in a lot of work between 2005-2008 and recorded hundred and hundreds of verses, but none of them are memorable today. wayne has no quotable classic verses like other great rappers do.
lots of people heard his mixtapes, but they are average as fuck. he never dropped a classic album either. carter II is nothing compared to other great albums from that time.
thats why i dont buy nothing havent heard anything since stackbundles died all tht above shit straight garbage
you’re missin out on a lot of shit! LOL why you even on this website commenting on this article if you havent heard anything since stack bundles died, wasnt that like 6 years ago? LMAO

As an accountant for YMCMB I can confirm that the sales for Rich Gang were underaccounted. We had already received over 900k pre-orders for the album and they will be accounted for in next weeks sales. Kanye bombed cant even hit gold. Jay-Z bombed he got outsold by a pop singer! Kendrick lamar bombed cant even hit platinum his sales have declined each week..
Wayne still outselling niggas. YMCMB have 4 albums on the billboard 200! that is why we run the industry. which other label has that many albums charting this high? and selling multi platinum records. ONLY YMCMB
Everything you say, dentalbitch, are lies.
As an accountant for young money, I can confirm that the sales for the rich gang album were actually overcounted. We have no money here. We’re broke bitches. Birdbitch is selling the company to Jay z and we’re all going to have to do gay porn.
As an accountant for young money, I can confirm that the gay porn major movie, “Inside Wayne’s Ass”, is already in production. It will feature Drake licking out Tyga, and Wayne will fist himself until he orgasms like a pig. However, we are still deciding for the title. We already have 900k pre-orders for the DVD, however Nicki Minaj will not be featured, as the executive producers decided that she was a fake bitch nigga. Look out for Inside Wayne’s Ass, on DVD and Bluray on September 12.
Games 1st tour for jesus piece gonna be in September and he sold 250k in the U.S alone…rappers can learn a thing or two about fan loyalty from GAME…consistently make great albums and the fans will consistently buy your albums, with or without promo…
LMAO so he gonna start the tour like 8 or 9 months after the release??? everyone already forgot about that album
250k is not a good look for a major label release from an artist who used to go plat
“250k is not a good look for a major label release from an artist who used to go plat”
Agreed.
“wayne has no quotable classic verses like other great rappers do”
If you dig through all those songs your bound to find a few memorable verses.
well quote one then.
i can’t think of one classic Wayne verse tbh.
other great rappers have classic verses that come to mind easily.
Eminem – Lose Yourself
Biggie – Juicy
Andre 3000 – Ms. Jackson
Jay-Z – 99 Problems
etc.
“58k is more than rich gang sold, more than ace hood sold 3 weeks later LMAO”
Rich Gang doesn’t care about album sales. They will sit back and watch the singles blow up, thus making their money. Ace Hood has the worst fans since Ross.
sure i bet they dont care about album sales. if that was the case why even release it???
Unfortunately for them, none of the singles are blowing up. They lost money on this project.
“You get the plaque for shipping 1,000,000 copies not selling”
You shouldn’t get a plaque for platinum status when your album hasn’t physically sold 1 million.
everyone else did so its too late to change the rules just cause you dont like kendrick going plat before officer ross
You didn’t say that about Nicki Minaj when she got her platinum plaque while not even selling a million.
bitch still probably hasnt sold that million
“everyone else did so its too late to change the rules”
I’ve always found that suspect.
“sure i bet they dont care about album sales. if that was the case why even release it???”
Up until recently Wayne was platinum. Drake is platinum. Nicki’s still selling, but their bread and butter are singles. You do realize everyday people download songs that they pay for. If only one single goes 1-2x platinum they’ve won. That’s the game. I’m not saying they wouldn’t prefer every album to go gold or platinum, but in today’s market, that’s just not realistic.
“Unfortunately for them, none of the singles are blowing up”
Tapout is #11 on ITunes.
Which doesn’t mean anything, considering it’s not a hit at all.
Tech 9 bombed while Rick Ross gets another platinum plaque.
Only in your wet dreams.
haha well i wouldnt exactly call 58,000 in a week independently a bomb
another platinum plaque? i didnt know he had 1?
Tech N9ne is an INDEPENDENT artist you retarded motherfucker! How is 60 thousand records sold first week bad? That’s more than French Montana and MGK sold first week, and they’re both major label artists on Bad Boy! FOH, faggot!!
“Which doesn’t mean anything, considering it’s not a hit at all”
Digital downloads are hard to come by, so #11 isn’t bad.
when drake drops his album and goes platinum in a week everyone else will become irrelevent drake owns this rap game
Wrong, Drake dicksucker.
you mean he owns the face that is plastered on every teenage girl ages 12-18 year old bedroom wall….he sells records, doesnt mean hes a good musician
When I release my Album and go Platinum in a day, people will be talking
Damn where’s U-God? I guess he must have flopped pretty hard! Thats what you get for releasing your album on a sucker ass record label that rips off the fans and doesn’t respond the emails asking where the products we paid for are!

“LMAO are those supposed to be classic bars”
Those verses are better than anything Vanilla Ice Jr, Kenwack Lamar and J. Snore will ever have.
this is exactly why no one will ever take you seriously Quoteman!
Is that a joke?
“this is exactly why no one will ever take you seriously Quoteman!”
Call me when Macklemore has been on hundreds of songs like Wayne has that get fan pages devoted to listing their favorite verses. Call me back when Macklemore or Kendrick sell a mill in a week, or sell 10 million albums. You’re fussin and fightin for nothing. Your rap super heroes are here today gone tomorrow.
hammer and vanilla ice sold 10 million albums too dawg. it doesnt make them good or classic
call me back when ross sells a million (of one album) in 10 years LMAO
You’re still wrong, quote-bitch.
Damn, where’s Kendrick? First time I haven’t seen his numbers on here…Macklemore better not go Plat before Kendrick, but most likely will. HOW IN THE FUCK DOES MAC MILLER PUT UP NUMBERS LIKE THIS?? FOR CHRIST SAKES!
kendrick is still on the charts hhdx only picks 5 new releases and 5 older ones each week. this the first week since his album came out in october he hasnt been on here!
“call me back when ross sells a million (of one album) in 10 years”
Kendrick won’t even see 5 years in the game lol
And you’re basing this on what, hate?
kendrick been rappin since 2003 thats already 10 years
“hammer and vanilla ice sold 10 million albums too dawg. it doesnt make them good or classic”
It doesn’t make them bad either. Do you think you could have done what either one of those guys did, and did it well enough to get endorsements and a movie? Of course not.
Yes. They’re bad.
“Yes. They’re bad”
Go tell Hammer and Ice to their faces how bad they were.
Look at this bitch defending two shit artists.
I dont even know what we’re arguing with him about at this point
“kendrick been rappin since 2003 thats already 10 years”
I wasn’t talking about his goofy indie flop, or his mixtapes. His major debut was in 2012. He won’t be around five years from now.
Nobody believes you. You’re full of hate and are just making up bullshit.
You can’t flop independently.
kendrick isnt independent
even if he did fall off. at least he will always be able to say he went play in 2013 when niggas was barely going gold. ross will never be able to say that
This was before the deal with Interscope.
“And you’re basing this on what, hate?”
On the musical climate. His hype has died way down.
Wrong again. The hype hasn’t died down.
“You can’t flop independently”
Tell that to anyone whose ever been on Koch.
“You’re full of hate and are just making up bullshit”
His major label debut came out in 2012. We all know he’ll have another one coming eventually, but to assume he’s going to have this dynasty like career now. That’s for fools and females to believe.
Anything’s possible. You thinking of this is pure hate.
“at least he will always be able to say he went play in 2013 when niggas was barely going gold”
So now his career trumps those others? Get the fuck outta here. He barely went platinum. Eminem’s 1st album with the Dre co-sign went 3x platinum.
in a time where everyone was going plat
Kendrick’s already platinum.
“defending two shit artists”
I’m defending the fact for their time, they were successful. That’s something your trans gender ass can’t dispute even if it’s killing you inside.
i dont get you man…. arent kendrick and macklemore also successful for their time? yet you wanna dispute that and say they wont be hear 5 years from now…. just like the two rappers you’re now defending. you cant have it both ways
Being successful doesn’t mean you’re good. Justin Bieber’s also successful and he sucks ass.
“arent kendrick and macklemore also successful for their time?”
I’ve stated many times how I just don’t like their music so whatever success they have to me doesn’t mean that much, more so Macklemore. He’s making these horrible songs that for some unknown reason a demographic of people are going ape shit over.
Now you’re being a hater. You don’t have to like them, but at least respect them.
“He’s making these horrible songs that for some unknown reason a demographic of people are going ape shit over.”
His songs are not horrible.
“in a time where everyone was going plat”
So what? Eminem was a new artist and nothing was a guarantee.
“Anything’s possible”
That first album usually gives you a good idea of what’s in store for that artist. Some blow up even bigger like Jay or Eminem, but it must be hard for Drake to keep crafting these songs and he’s 2x platinum. Kendrick has talent, but I don’t see him with enough to build a great career when it’s all said and done.
“but I don’t see him with enough to build a great career when it’s all said and done.”
Then you have shitty predictions.
Funny to seee these haters of macklemore. LISTEN little kiddies, if millions of people by your music. Than if you cant respect thatm you a haterrrrrrrr!
if you can’t spell buy you’re a tard
anonymous your a dum bitch straight stupid straight puss yeah i said it what
