I’ve been reading some of these comments and I’m sitting here like wow. As far as these artists listed some of them just need to hang it up. Some need gimmicks and some need better ones cause it ain’t workin for them. Some of them can barely sale records so who is to guarantee they will stand the test of time and have a long LASTING career. People are making comments about the legends like LL and Nas, Ice Cube and so forth and their numbers, but how can you compare new bootys to legends? People that’s been in the game 10, 20 years plus…. You can’t. What seperates the new bootys and the LEGENDS is, for the new bootys this shit is a career, but for the legends its their life because that’s what they dedicated to game…..a lifetime. Have you ever head of lifetime achievement? That’s the goal that these new artists need to set for themselves. That’s the real test….Consistency and dediction. You never saw LL or Cube say, “I’m gonna retire as soon I strike gold” like some of these artists do once they feel they have enough money to support the lifestyle to their liking. They still in this shit because they love what they do and it wasn’t just for the money. You might ask why these artists feel they still need to be in the game? Because the game needs the legends and they need leaders to help keep it going. They were the one’s to start it and get it this far. They know what it takes to achieve longevitity, which is something the artist of today need to be taught so that hip-hop will still be here and strong for even another 20, 30, 40 years and so forth. Now that I’ve said what I had to say. Keep Hip Hop Alive! I’m out!

nas’s “nigger” album is not mainstream material:

no extra push from MTV to reach white america (see wayne)
easily digestable dumbed down lyrics and simple catchy hooks
808 baselines
mainstream accessible (drugs, sex, violence)

mcdonalds sales are > everyone. we all know how good that food is for you.

so then with lackluster sales the past few movies, denzel and will smith are falling off since christian bale (batman) sold 5x more than them worldwide?!?? same difference

whoa!?!? alicia keys is dope. she is talented and DOES NOT USE GIMMICKS to sale. too bad, she let her self get associated with swizz.

@tubby and Who’s Judging’s,

alicia is good looking, talented and uses NO GIMMICKS to sale records. if she messes with swizz, then it’s wrong for her. it would kill her credibility.

in regards to her being a whore, i bet you both probably can double or triple her “numbers”

@ ggproof

I’m not saying she’s not messing with Swizz because it seems plausible. But, I won’t say she’s the cause of their marriage breaking up because she wasn’t linked to him until AFTER his seperation from Masonda (yes, I know he’s still married legally so it’s still wrong in a way). Honestly, I just think Mashonda’s mad because her marriage is over and Swizz moved on to Alicia and tried throwing dirt on her name and trying to garner publicity for that wack ass CD she’s recording in the process.

What I was trying to say about Sandra Rose was that she claimed to know all this other BS about AK sleeping around with other men and women in relationships which I find hard to believe. This sitch with her and Swizz came out, so don’t you think if she has a history of this, she would’ve been found out a long time ago? I mean, Sandra Rose claimed it was her people (mainly her record exec Clive Davis) that kept her ways from getting out, so why couldn’t they stop this, too? ESPECIALLY SINCE MASHONDA IS AN ARTIST ON THE LABEL (at least last I checked). I’m just saying, SR contradicts herself and has ADMITTED she makes alot of her stories up yet people continue to believe her. And if she had this information on AK for years like she claimed, why wait until isht hits the fan to put her on blast? If she’s been doing this, someone should’ve called her out on her nastiness. And judging by what I know of Sandra, she would’ve been the one to do it! So, like I said, I wouldn’t believe that part of SR’s story.
