more than enough proof has been provided.
the fact of the matter is that one of your childhood nostalgic ideologies is being ruined, and youre not taking to it very well.
youre making a mountain out of a molehill.
he was under the impression that missy had a huge year, when in fact it was the opposite.
and he fell back afterwards, so I don't know why you keep bringing him up, hoping that hes gonna come to your defense.
DMX flesh of my flesh album dropped with no video.
the slippin video dropped like a month or so after the album's release.
the 2nd video didn't drop until like 7-8 months later.
just a lil perspective there.

I am not hoping anyone comes to my rescue. I never needed help in debating any of you. Only reason I mentioned him is because I was summarizing how it all started. I wasn't in here throwing up the bat symbol to call in the "calvary". You don't see me in here talking about the "calvary has arrived" or talking about "we tried to tell you".

Breh, no proof has been given. It is his "criteria", which doesn't mean much when the poster who created the criteria is under the impression that debut albums can't flop.
If anything is being ruined here it is your agenda against that whole camp. Again, this whole thing started because you couldn't accept Missy being mentioned. What's worse is that you're claiming she flopped, but she's appeared in every list on your 1999 threads.
Ok. I must have missed that. What are your other factors?
And how many factors you’re looking at is the point if we are talking about whether or not my system is comprehensive or not.
You are correct about the singles.
You are correct about the album sales.
However, I will note that Flesh went double platinum much quicker than Its Dark.
You’re also neglecting to mention the first criteria, which is first week sales. I believe Flesh has the highest first week in 98 and sold more than double what It’s Dark did. It was also number one for 3 weeks. It did not feel like a flop in real time either.
So, this album is more of a mixed bag as compared to Missy.
Also, simply selling less than the previous album is not the sole criteria for whether an album is a flop.
You have yet to give an example that meets all the criteria of the Missy album.
No. To the contrary, you selectively applied the criteria to make your case and ignored the criteria that didn’t support your case.
I’m really surprised Slipping didn’t chart higher.
What do you mean no proof has been given?
I posted the first week chart positions, how the singles performed, the time it took for the albums to be certified platinum. How is that not proof? And if that’s not proof, what would be proof?
