It’s also an indication of your fan base.

WTF, yall dickriders make the most excuses. That shit is a FLOP.

Thu, 12 May 2011 05:27:32 +0000 http://www.xxlmag.com/?p=127816#comment-2202077 Disappointing IMO. Bastard a lot better, Tyler is over hyped. If any of you actually listened to his music you’d understand. He bitches in interviews saying progression, progression. Yet Goblin is No. Fucking. Different.

For some reason he is the star of OF when I clearly think Hodgy surpasses him by a LOOOOOOONG shot. Tyler raps about the same shit, dupes verses I mean come on people. The kid has a 16 year old fan base… I fucking love his music but if you listened to Bastard or any other OF branch it simply is. not. that. good.

The people who buy his shit are only people who know exactly who he is don’t you know what underground means. He’s still not mainstream despite being signed.

And he has a deal where he keeps the rights to his masters. Unlike a lot of these new dumb fucks every time his music is “used” he gets paid.

He has Zero promotion (some cheap quick tv ad), almost zero budget, zero mainstream affiliation (not sided with a mainstream artist).

So 25 > 50K is decent

Music artist don’t make serious money though album sales it’s made by gigs & concerts. Ask The Roots, Tom Jones & Beyonce

I mean, I know they need background shit for Jersey Shore and Sweet 16, but honestly, if it wasn’tfor the internet, I would have no idea who Tyler is.

It’s just music.
Some people like this shit,some people don’t.
As long as these brothers are doing something creative and not getting caught up in the streets,we should be happy for them instead of putting them down.If ya’ll have the secret for selling records,then put something out.

Nobody nowadays is selling big numbers anyways except for a few big names.
Who the fuck made some of these people the authority on what’s music and what’s not.
I know everyone of us listens to an artist that we may like but to others they suck.If you don’t like it,don’t fucking listen to it or buy it.it’s that simple.LOL

Within AND outside of the country. You obviously don’t know what you are talking about. If “the streets” mattered then there would be a lot of people who “nobody knows” about. If I asked my friends from my job or my family who artists like Brand New or Waka Flaka were they would have no idea. Does this mean that they aren’t known? No. You sound like an idiot.

Tyler and Hodgy performed on Jimmy Fallon and MTVU before his first album was even released in stores. He was also #2 on itunes. Nobody knows who he is, okay ‘Enlightened’.

Hip-hop sites think they can talk about somebody all day, everyday and that it will translate into the real world.

There is no substitute for what “the streets” say. Nobody knows who the fuck Tyler or these other dudes are unless you come on these sites. Numbers don’t surprise me at all.

The hype is only on the internet? Mafucka they play Odd Future on MTV 45 times a day. “Yonkers” is on MTV ALLLL day.

50k is great first week. Waka Flocka did 35k and he is almost gold. Fuck outta here man.

I can tell you that its pretty fucking incredible and definitely worth 12 bucks on itunes. ofwgkta
