#16 if u think cats actually buy 100k of their own records, I got a ski resort condo in Hawaii I wanna sell u…who the fuck besides Jay-Z or somebody would have a million dollars to do some shit like that?? Impossible. That J Foxx is jammin though, as is the Anthony Hamilton. Older folks still buy R&B though so they can still do numbers. Hip Hop fans steal ya shit all day. The Internet killed hip hop.

i hate to wish the worst for sb. granted, he is just a kid with poor guidance. however, he lack of respect for the game and real legends rubbed folks the wrong way. granted, his “fan base” could care less about real music. dude needed to be humbled. he is going to make money regardless.

plies continues to overachieve. not a fan of his music but props to him anyway.

congrats to real artist that can sell 100k a week and more like anthony hamilton and keyshia cole. hamilton makes real timeless music. keyshia is talented, goodlooking and has a good marketing machine behind her. much success to them both.

The reason hiphop ain’t selling is because the public is fed up with all the gangsta shit bling bling and obsession with money and bragging about cars watches….etc. The general public don’t want that shit anymore.

The mainstream hiphop is slowly changing. Record companies are going to be looking for other types of MC’s. Rappers that actually have something to say. In the near future Mainstream hiphop will most likely be dominated by many rappers like Lupe Fiasco Kanye West..etc. Charles Hamilton is a good example of a young new MC that the general public is going to be feeling and could blow up and be real big.
