GOT to take a look at Bleek's numbers!!!

[Qwerty]

It's not a good start for Jay-z as a President of IDJ, he puts out his main man's album and the numbers are: ..... 59,470 !!!!!

That's a total flop, and the Young Gunz are coming out next and it will probably do as bad as that so that will make 2 straight flop for Jay-z's guyz.

P.s: I know it ain't about sales, but 59k first week when you're endorse by Jay-z is disapointing

 

[Rhythmikal]

ouch! i know Joe Budden did 70k and that was all over the news because it was shocking, but 59k...

i was never a fan of Bleek but i thought he would do better than this. shows people want something new.

sAfE.

you're right tho man,,,it aint a good start. If you are on Def Jam as the CEO's main guy,,,well, ya better sell sumthin,,,YOung Gunz are horrible in there own right,,,,lol,,,this is the industry folks,,,Not how ya flow, but who ya blow!

 

[massikrbeats]

dat Bleek album is hot, too....very original, very real..very bleek...listenin to it now

 

[Ozmosis]

The Young Gunz are ok, but have anyone seen their album cover? It looks so whack, their trying to look like RUN DMC with leather Jackets, hats, and addidas on. Looks like some kids trying to immitate the bigs boys.

 

[Phonetik]

Yeah, people are sleeping on that one. Pirateing music is at its peak at the moment too, which could be the issue. No worries, the Roc will come back. Especially id Kanye's album come out on that label.

 

[MarkN]

yea the bleek album from what i've heard is much better than you would think, but i guess people are sleeping on it, he just hasn't got the name power of people like jay etc where people will buy their stuff regardless so unless he has some serious promo behind him and i haven't seen fuck all promo for it then its not gonna sell 59k is real bad though !

Exactly brother. For example look at jmt's sales TO DATE: Jedi Mind Tricks Legacy of Blood - 16,391 Released 09/2004; Jedi Mind Tricks Visions of Ghandi 40,201 - Released 08/2003. And these albums shit on most "Platinum Artists" out now.

I don't think it's fair to compare albums that sell with album that don't. Cuz it's too different kind of music, the one that is underground got more freedom and you can already take out the average and sometime trash records that has a purpose to be played in a club. So, without having to make some club records you already have an album that is better.. Though, the best rappers of all time DID sell a lot of records : 2pac, Biggie, Jay-z, and Naz did went platinum a couple of time..before.

Ieeewwwwwwooooo

 

[50 cal]

I haven't heard a tight bleek song since "is that yo chick"

 

[Bosta]

IMO the single is ass, nobody likes that shit. I respect Bleek but a better single should have been picked.

It's all about promo..Bleek hardly got none; I'm sure people didn't even know it was out. I like this album, its better than that last horrible album M.A.D.E.

P2P man. The internet is killin them.

no way dude.
how many do you think downloaded his album instead of buying it??

i downloaded it, but i'd never go out and buy it. so i can in no way be counted as a loss to their sale, and i think that applies to most people that download.
