^^ what are you arguing here? are you dissapointed by e-40 only sellin 100k? are u now ashamed of yo area? did you go buy that album? i don't see the point of talkin down about the situation here, everyone else pretty much happy fo 40 and the exposure the bay gettin i don't see how arguin about 100k sales matters.

*E40 is #2 on power106LA whens da last time a bay artist done that?
i think he's pretty high up there on other stations too.
How can you expect so much from 1 album that like someone said previously, is a brand new sound and e-40 is a brand new artist in their eyes... i don't think u really understand, i highly doubt the tell me when to go video cost that much if your arguin that e-40's sales won't beable to recoop fo the cost of the project.....
Thank you fam...school these dont knows

Hell naw, that ain't big at all! You Bay Area niggas got low expectations. I'm extremely dissapointed. They promoted the hell out of this album/movement and no one bought into the gimmick. 93,000 is a flop! 40 ain't Independent no more, Yayo and Fat Joe did better numbers than that. This is actually bad for a mainstream album. btw, where is your source??

Shut ya mouth hatta.... Gayo only push a lil over 60k his first week ya batch know what your talkin bout before ya open ur mouth

^^And L.A is in Cali. When he does that on an NY radio station, then we have something. My main point is that most of you guys just look weird celebrating this shit. Just say it's ok, he'll do better next week. But you guys are up here saying that 93,000 is big! And he's done much bigger with even less promo (Hall Of Game, 123,000). Obviously the Hall Of Game album was simply a better album with a MUCH better single! I don't think niggas are falling for these gimmicks no more. "The Hyphy Movement", please. I felt funny about this shit since day one, that ain't even how we get down in the Bay. This movement is too shallow, I know crunk is too, but this shit is Key Word, "Too" shallow.
how come you didnt address dude that said yayo only sold over 60k, when you said he had much bigger #'s. Then you want to go back and make a quick edit and clown tha hyphy movement...lol

^No one said he was. Who said he was plat? I know I didn't.




^Try looking above this post. And quick edit? wtf you talkin bout? Ya'll get weirder and weirder, I swear.
What i'm sayin is that you mentioned yayo when you were speaking on people who have major promotion. Comparing 40 to his, but if yayo promotion was so good why is he just a gold seling artist? You never said that was terrible or disapointing. You spoke on yayo like he did it big!

More than twice as much as 40 did. I rest my case. You losers must feel stupid.
That aint the point. With all the shit you said HES ONLY GOLD. 40 went gold before and i'm sure he'll do better than gold this time. No matter what the first week sales were. Yayo sold twice as much as 40 the first week but hes just gold dont u understand! And thats with all that major promotion and second hit single wit 50, and the rest of the stuff YOU mentioned.

hall of game was a double cd

a.k.a said:
Exactly, with no machinery, one video, and virtually no further promotion. And he debuted lower, at number 4! That's telling you that this is a flop, and the only reason that he is number 3 is because no one else did anything last week. Yukmouth put out mixtapes that did close to this in the first week, 93,000 is below average no matter what any of these Bay dudes try and tell themselves. Joe Budden's debut did better than this, c'mon now. Admit it and stop making excuses, didn't no body want to buy this shit. The only reason you guys think it's a good number is because Bay rappers have been independent and haven't been doin number over 10,000 (San Quinn did 6)in first week sales. 40 was like the only one being signed to Jive. I ain't tryna be the barer of bad news, but you guys look really stupid getting hyped up over 93,000 sales. The rest of the country is probably laughing at you niave motha fuckas. Anyone who tells you that these numbers are good aren't being objective and they are most likely an E-40 fan and/or from the Bay.
if you buy one double cd its counted as 2 cd's sold because of the price. so essentially he moved half that number of units 1st week

Man, you are ignorant. Why would you compare album sales from the tape era before internet downloads and CD burners. They are making kids dumber and dumber. Get to your next class dummy & pay attention.

Your Mom should of definately swallowed you.

youre trippin. 40 is an OLD artist, the single isn't a #1 hit or anything, and the video wasn't in rotation on BET until last week. not to mention the vast amount of east coast hate he gets he wasnt gonna sell 200k first week. lil jon knows this, and he knows the way this album is gonna sell is over a few months with good singles and good ONGOING promotion.
40 only had a national buzz for little more than a month, and "Tell Me When 2 Go" is not for everyone. Give it some time, and wait for "U and Dat" to hit....

if he do solid numbers in the second week and stay in the top ten, he's gonna go gold. i don't care for the album, but to say he ain't in a good position and ain't even started touring yet or dropped the second single and video is stupid. hater is overused on here but some of y'all is hating, plain and simple

a) I don't know what part of the Bay your from, but in the Town we been getting Hyphy for years.... It is not a backpack movement.

b) You obviously don't know of the heart behind the Hyphy movement...

You are entitled to an opinion, but in the endyou'll have to eat your own words. Hope your hungry....
