      1. 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

    1. 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!

      1. 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!

    2. 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

    3. 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!?

      1. It already sold 500,000 worldwide. Stop being so small minded, because the world is bigger than just your state or country….lol
