A couple days ago I read about how Interscope may have purposely not release enough of TOS albums to the public so the album would not sale well. Of course at 1st I thought this was some retarded excuse to make up for the album not selling well. But then as the days past I started reading other articles that may very well make this true.
I mean it is well known that the top guys at Interscope and 50 haven't been seeing eye 2 eye since before the Curtis album was dropped.
They haven't been liking how 50 has been releasing free music on his website.
Last but not least the website is a threat the to all record companies all over.
Think about it. Other than the website. I never really saw any advertising for this album. Didn't see hardly no magazine advertising other than Source or XXL. Never saw videos on MTV or BET. Didn't hear anything on the radio.
Interscope really did not want this album to succeed. Because if it did, then how many other rap artist would have followed suit. Pretty soon you wouldn't need a major label at all. Just a website. The major labels can't have that. Eventually artist would just release their music through their websites only.
Its a shame. If that were to happen then these rap artist would be able to put out more quality music and not have to worry about what these industry a$$holes think. If this album were successful it would be good for all of hiphop.
Let me know what you think. But keep the hate comments to yourself. I just want REAL TALK!!!!!!!!!!
True True but i still dont understand how so many people are registered to this site and only 100,000 records got sold i downloaded from itunes i dont know if that figured into the 100,000 or not but i dont bootleg G-Unit I support them no matter how much money they got I like the music...Good music is good music and they bought back the old style on this album no commercial bull crap just hard retro G-Unit s*** its not for everybody but its for me...And i hope they dont true to include anymore people cuz as we can see it doenst work Keep the circle tight...Holla
Yeah right . You and I know Gunit outsells most artist anytime. YOU are just coming up with an exuse to say why they didn't sell. Go Cop that T.O.S and stop hating
That sounds like a cut to the chase bottom line explanation, really makes sense, but I think it`s more to it than that!
As you know 50 has said that the internet is the future of the industry. And here you have this black hood figure like man starting a revalutionary practice. He won`t conform, he wears jeans, and he curses to let you know he is not to be messed with.
Big wigs like Murdock, are behind it, the fact can`t be denied that 50 has genious tendencies; and, as long as this man keeps his mind on his money; they won`t be able to stop him.
Like it was said in one of the tracks on, T.O.S he stays 4 steps ahead of them. And he don`t panic when things don`t go right!
