they both learned from JAY

:manny:
Jay learned from other dudes. I'm always shocked to find out people really believe the lines they hear. Unless you have proof, or someone to vouch for it don't believe anything you hear on a damn record.

there was an interview

and it showed how jay got his "image" by watchin old gangster movies and tryin to take the traits of the boss's in the movies by being calm and cool etc...

its out there somwhere.. pretty much PROVES that jay entire career is ross-esqe:duck:

so the OP is sayin that more black people bought GFID than white people

how did you figure this out?




naive much?

U missing the point.

What OP is saying is that Ross doesn't cater his music to white ppl, that doesn't mean white ppl dont buy his music.

Look at Wiz and Rolling Papers
or Dr. Dre and I need a Doctor
or Lupe and Lasers

All abandoned their CORE fanbase chasing them pop dollars.

Ross is proving that you dont have to go pop to sell a decent amount of records. White ppl will still buy ur shyt if they see a lot of black ppl jamming it.

I agree with op but I believe Ross and Jeezy share the same fanbase for the most part.

Ross stans makin a case for worst on the internet

You might not like my posts talking about Ross, but don't act like I don't talk about other topics or something. I think I'm pretty reasonable outside of Ross topics:yeshrug:

I think this might actually be true though. I never really see white people bumping Ross like they do Wayne, Jeezy, Kanye etc. And a lot of "real hiphop heads" hate him. We don't have any stats obviously, but I'd be willing to bet his audience is overwhelmingly black.

Yeah this is a fact, SoundScan started counting melanins in all album buyers.

nah they're sampling food particles on the hands that pick up CDs in stores. "This hand has biscuit and gravy residue on it. Must be a cac"

I'm white and Rick Ross has had at least one song on every one of my playlists I've made since Sep 2010. If only you guys knew what an achievement that was,

Real talk. And OP offers no proof or even the semblance of possible proof. This dude works for MMG but has never even met Torch. :shaq:
