TERRIBLE SONG WHO WOULD PAY FOR THAT RUBBISH
So 500,000 morons bought “Racks”?? Smh….
Smh someone can’t read, 1 million idiots bought that racks bullshit
yes, cuz that shit crank
rack city sold a million not racks u retards..yc went gold meaning 500,000
it doesnt surprise me. i remember seeing alotta 16 yr old girls driving past me and hearing that “rack city bitch, rack, rack….” coming out of there car a few months back. kids are kinda corny and buy shitty music these days or maybe rappers are corny these days
Funny how NOW the accolades come from selling ONE song over being able to sell an entire project, who cares about selling a milli SINGLE when your entire Cd doesn’t even go bronze!
You… My man… Are one of the few that see through the bullshit of today! These record labels over saturated the music industry by giving us trash artist who can barely hit Gold but sell 3x platinum singles… I.E. Pitbull and FloRida! Thank god for artist like Kanye and Adele!
A ringtone costs more than a song and you dont get to hear the whole song when you buy the ringtone.
steven you are a moron, they way you worded your title and the second sentence it seems like tyga went gold and yc went platinum
Blame Alfred Liggins & Radio One for partly ruining music through corporate greed.
The industry rides these Young Money carbon copy rappers so much its fucking pathetic. You really got to let it be know that this dude went gold? Really!?
Stop with all your bias hating. If he was signed to Jigga or Puffy, you would be throwing a parade.
Give Tyga all the plaques you want, his shit still aint sell 500K
It already sold 500,000 worldwide. Stop being so small minded, because the world is bigger than just your state or country….lol
Congratulation, to Tyga going platinum with his single and eventually gold with his album.
