		<description><![CDATA[I know this doesnt have to do with this specific topic but i think its important to this week’s blogs in general

I have to say that mixtapes are helping hiphop for several reasons.
I think that rap music has kinda hit its high. If you look at album sells since 50’s Get Rich and Nelly’s Nellyville in 2003 no rap artists ahve hade the commercial sucess of selling 11 or 10 million records. 

For instance 50 and Nelly’s last albums sold significantly less.
50’s sold 5 million
Nelly’s Sweat and Suit together i think sold around 3 million

Even extremely popular rappers with alot of buzz like young jeezy just broke a million (and im not saying that not sucessful, its just not anywhere near 11 mil).

I even say T.I. with selling over 500,000 in the first week still won’t go past x2 or x3 platinum

So with the overall decline in rap sells, i would say that mixtapes allow rappers to make some $ on their own. Its a good thing for hiphop and music in general. If you like hiphop then why not buy a mixtape? At least you know that the money u spend on the mixtape is mostly goin to the rapper, instead of going to some company like Universal, Sony, Warner etc.]]></description>
