Stop being delusional son. How many big name rap artists you see coming out with a new cd that close to Christmas? None son and there's a reason. If you're releasing in the 4th quarter, the best time is right before Thanksgiving. Not right before Christmas.

Now Who Was Ross Running Up Against During His Release?
First of The Month Release Too (There Go The Hood Supporting)?

Like I said in my earlier post..too many variables to be comparing this !!.Sales climate,competition,etc.

All you freaks sound like a broken record talking about "platinum", maybe some artists ain't meant to crossover into your demographic maybe our artist are happy being urban artists and not crossover artist.

We salute the success of our brother while you turn red in the face and try to turn his victory and best first week into a E-loss because his first week wasn't better than a platinum selling artist.

You devils are sick.

the same demographics like the pic that was out showing nothing but white boys and chicos tryna 2 get an autograph from ross[pic][pic]in the words of ur mentor,"!! BOI !! BOI !! BOI !! BOI"

Smh, so the biggest sales weeks dont matter?

Ok.

Not saying its law, but be logical.

in rap u do a majority of ur numbers first week between 15-55% of ur overall numbers come off the first week sales....

thats why do the heaviest promo leading into release week

jeezy had heavy comp for holiday $$$$ his first week

A mutanoid like you is still playing checkers.

Jeezy dropped his first album in 2001 and he still ain't built a solid enough team to put his dogs on...he plays checkers too.

Jeezy needs to drop a #1 compilation showcasing his artists

Jeezy needs to executive produce an album from one of his artists and watch it go Gold

Ross been on the game since 2006 and in 6 years out-hustled Jeezy as a CEO, he has a film division that does the bulk of videos/vlogs and a Latin division along with singers and reggae artists.

You talking about "platinum" and we talking about minority economic empowerment in the culture without even having to go platinum and crossover.

Chess not Checkers.

You live in his back pocket or what?

NO my dude. Jeezy has more white fans than ross OVERALL. And niccas know this. Its not even up for discussion. I even remember in high school when the white kids were wearing snowman shirts. Ive been to jeezy concerts and ross concerts in numerous states and jeezy has ross beat by far. People wanna fool themselves into believing other wise or actually believing that hood cats actually buy albums. Its a statistical reality that the more white fans you have in hiphop, the more you will sell. Drake,nicki,jay,kanye,etc all know this.I knew from the start ross wont outselling jeezy cause jeezy has that demographic on his side more than ross does and not mention that ross got a !! ton of stanish enemies. Be real man. Im speaking reality.

I just like the music. Thats all. I bump jeezy and ross both in the ride. And on the business aspect,buzz,investments,etc you think jeezy is winning over ross from a business standpoint? No. Thats what matters. Sales only get you so far. Thats why i dont give a !! about them in the first place. But brainwashed simpletons argue over that !! like theyre getting a cut and its Christmas time. People always bringing up sales when comparing ross to jeezy cause thats the only thing jeezy got ross beat at. Thats my point. Its like the tortoise vs the Hare. This isnt 2003.

album is garbage thats why it wont sell any more then 500k
