[Woodrow]

whats boring about it?

I use to think DTR was his best album but there are some atrocities on that album

lol. that's what ross always does!

the last third of his albums (with the exception of Teflon Don maybe) always derail into fukkery.

Success given the climate actually

 

[homiedontplaydat]

fukk sales

 

[Wild self]

Sales in the toilet. Someone said in here that no one rapper went platinum in 2012. Ross is doing good. Cats like him are doing 15-45k first week nowadays.

 

[CashmereThoughts]

About as successful as you would be If you sold 2 million and shot 2
Half a million dollar videos and bought several 100k beats...

Smaller sales, lower budget. Less units, recoup in a fraction of the time.. No question, def jam is satisfied and Ross is eatin good off the album.

 

[Pimp]

Lil Wayne does 900k the first week so 400k for somebody with this much radio play is fail. How much drake do on his last album?

 

[BIGDENNIS10UK]

Ross got mad heart, yo.

ross goin gold before 2012 is over. So.. 5 gold albums, 5 number 1 albums?

Looks like a success to me

For anyone it's a success, being that he's the allegedly hottest rapper in the game (hotter than Drake and Kanye they said). It's a fail that they are selling more first week than he's doing in total. It's the same numbers Wale did.

Tbh I'm a bit disappointed, with all the hype media and stans were delivering and also how he kept on progressing, rich forever, murking nas, styles, ghost and Raekwon on their own songs I thought this was gonna be bigger and significantly doper than anything he's done. But it's not better than any of his albums basically on the same level and its not bigger than any of his previous albums.

4 #1 albums and 4 gold albums.
TD was not #1 and DTR didn't go gold.
