How Joe's brain took this initial convo about guys not showing emotion and being bought up to not do so to women were getting raped is beyond me lol
Exactly and it was actually annoying. Joe was stepping on a real good conversation about the differences in how boys and girls are socialized and how that manifests in adult relationships. Not to mention how the taught emotional repression of men is harmful.
These dudes have a such an inflated idea of how popular Chris Brown is :russ:

70K is good numbers for him

It's actually not. A Chris Brown solo project has NEVER sold under 100k 1st week. Not in the entirety of his career. Some perspective: even the album.he released right after the Rihanna incident still netted 102k 1st week.

Californ-i-a by way of BK
Wale would have a tougher time beating Meek inna versuz setting

Meek can also smoke J.Cole in versuz
Depends on the audience, but Meek could definitely beat J Cole depending on where it's at. But J cole is so much better than Meek as a rapper, and he has hits, I would pick Cole in a neutral spot.

:comeon:
Yes it was 2009 and the height of him actually being blackballed and under fire, yet he STILL cleared 100k 1st week for his album.

I say all that to say: that man done got over 200k 1st week sales since THEN and never dropped under 100k, until now. He ain't blackballed.
