When you start to get old your appeal is instantly destroyed. Don’t nobody want to see their daddy saggin’, talkin’ about bonin’ hoes, and dancin’.

Bottom line is you have to have a good promotional campaign leading up to an album. You really have to make people give a shit about some music for it to sell. Jail stints and stupid publicity stunts don’t do jack shit. They attract fly by night fans that won’t help help your album that much. Sony could’ve done a better job with X-man by putting out the record at the same time as a new movie or something.

And what does anyone being behind a computer have to do with knowing if DMX is real??? u stupid muthafucka. its a wrap for X,face it?

I still can’t get a concrete date for Lupe. Many Rappers this year have had a buffet of material better suited for videos than most of they’re tragically crappy 2nd singles (Hint: Busta’s “I Love My Chick”) I Also used to see a commercial or ad for new albums a month before releases. Maybe it’s that half of the carbon copy material produced isn’t worth Sh*t. This year even R&B has been less than stellar (Cassie, Christina Milian & ETC). So Pick Your Poison: Bad Singles or Bad Marketing or Bad Artist or All of the Above.

X is in a different category though, he just plain sucks….
