Rick Ross has the highest selling album in the country this week with his sophomore set Trilla, which scanned just under 199,000 copies and will land at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top 200 chart. Powered by his T-Pain assisted single “Boss,” the Carol City native managed to outsell the latest installment in the notoriously popular NOW That’s What I Call Music compilation series by nearly 20,000 units. Next up we have Snoop Dogg’s latest project, Ego Trippin. With help from his smash single “Sensual Seduction,” the Doggfather moved nearly 137,000 and will take the No. 3 spot. Rounding out last week’s rap debuts is Fat Joe with his eighth solo album, The Elephant in the Room, which moved about 46,200 discs and will land at No. 6 on the Billboard Top 200.

Judging albums based on record sales has always been wack. Let’s not forget, Vanilla Ice used to go multi-plat, yet nowadays, you can’t find anyone who will even admit they ever purchased his shit.
Furthermore, you niggas act like you’re the ones winning. All you adolescent ass faggots kill me coming on here using corny ass names like “Gunit-matthew”, then bragging about how much money some other dude is making. Its cool to be proud of brothers for making it (hell, I’d drink to that all day), but to covet one artist over another because that guy makes more money is beyond idiotic. That kind of logic paves the way for booboo shitfaces like Souljah Boi and these other non rapping ass clowns to saturate the game.
If hip hop is dying, its because the self righteous purists and you braindead, “yes” men ass dickryders from the suburbs are killing it.

I swooped TRILLA. Eventhough, “Ego Trippin” and “Elephant in the sand” was kicking next to one another at the store.
I still might cop that SNOOP.
TRILLA is a good album. The difference between ROSS and SNOOP was the guest appearances. SNOOP has TOO Short and Fabby on the album….thats it! ROSS has a gang of fools on the album. It makes the album flow tighter when you have other artists on your shit.
Snoop needs to stop Ego trippin and invite some new west coast flavor on his album. There’s a whole lost of artists ready to blow.
If he would have had some new west coast heat on his shit…..it would have sold a lot more.

HE WENT PLATINUM….and it was a ‘SOLO’ album.
ALL RAPPERS have features….except SHYNE.

LOL@those awkward comparisons.
Souljah Boi and Canibus both suck. Souljah Boi is ass for obvious reasons. Canibus gets points because you have to actually break down his wackness. For starters, dude can’t write a song to save his life, because his beat selection is awful and he approaches damn near every track as though he’s battling someone. Very tiring indeed.
How can you even compare Franchise Boys with the Wu? The Wu will go down as one of the illest groups of all time, no doubt about that, but at the same time, I’d much rather hear “Lean With It” than “Triumph” at the club.
Last but not least, Rick Ross and KRS-One? Once again, KRS will go down as a legend as his impact on the game is widely acknowledged, but who’s really checking for a new release from him? He’s a dinosaur in today’s hip hop world, and has been a member of the complaining rapper movement(aka old ass rappers who’ve passed their expiration date who bore those of us still trying to enjoy hip hop with their complaints of what hip hop “used to be”). I say that not to imply that KRS is the inferior rapper, but to say no one (save for a few stans stuck in hip hop time continuum mode) is really interested in hearing this guy anymore. And Rick Ross boring? Please, KRS recently became the Governor of Boring State.

Voice of Reason. What I’m asking is, what are we getting at by basing everything off of record sales??? You could have not one ounce of fucking talent and still make millions if you put wackass rappers like we have today over a nice club beat! (Soulja Boy, Dem Franchise Boys, etc) What I’m saying is we have truly talented emcees out there who should be making more money then what they are, (Canibus, Talib Kweli, Krs-One today, etc) but because their spittin lyrics with substance, and ain’t snappin their fangaz, and making corny-ass songs that got corny little dances to go with it, they don’t make radio and television! And as far as the complaining rapper movement, sorry but I agree with every last one of them! All rap is now is a bunch of non-talented fuckin clowns waving cash around in every music video, and braggin about the pretty little diamonds, on their neck and wrist! There’s no substance anymore! How anybody could say Krs-One is boring and this flash in the pan nukka ain’t I’ll never know! Talk about an awkward comparison there you go! Overall with the comparisons I mentioned in my previous comment, I’m saying that wack artists/music is sellin and substance music is NOT!

Wow, yeah Fat Joe has been crazy lyrical lately. Make it Rain, wow that was lyrical man. I wont tell, damn his lyrics were on some deep shit. LMAO. When has Fat Joe ever had a hit without someone else on it? Just Him, solo. NEVER.
Furthermore, Fat Joe is a sellout, He sold out BX when he ran down south and tried to swagger jack Rick Ross’s flow, he sold out TS (who?) and he sold out Puns family by letting them starve. Dude lies and lies and lies and has no loyalty. You think Fat Joe is “substance music”? ROFL!
Look, if your favorite “substance” rapper wants to make money, they should tour. Period. I know of rappers you prolly never heard of that are Platinum in Japan, or England, or Canada, people just need to stop worrying about how much money people are making and whos gettin shine and just be happy that whoever it is that you enjoy listening to is still releasing music.

Man, that punk Fat Joe needs to stop he is a waste of a niggaz computer memory, a waste of blanks, waste of time. if he made $8 a CD he still made less than 500 Gs, fiddy made a couple mill a day. I dont care about how many pairs of Js that fat mofo has, if he aint selling records he isnt doing his job. just becuase you are coo with Jeezy, wayne and others dont mean shit. He is dead weight in the rap world nothing more.

Question: Name a classic album loaded with features
ANSWER: NONE!
Loading an album with features outside of your camp is cheating your way to recognition, and the money spent makes it hard for artist to recoup on an album.

Rick Ross is a Bitch.His music SUCKS. that shit is fuckin retarded.
Snoop Dogg’s music on the other hand I thought would have sold WAY more. Especially Considering his reality show, which i thought would have boosted sales. But i guess they didnt. Snoops album I bought, but i think it was good, but not great. I thought that song “My Medicine” SUCKED, but the songs “Staxxx In My Jeans” and “Life Of The Party” and a couple more songs were Really Good.
Fat Joe’s album, which I just illegally downloaded, had basically like 3 Songs i liked. “300 Brolic” “The Crack House” feat. Lil Wayne,and ESPECIALLY “My Conscience” feat. KRS One. but the rest was crap.
speaking of new albums…
Jim Jones album was almost all rich sounding garbage except the only song i like was “Don’t Love Me No More”
The rest i didnt like. And His last album I loved though, so this was a disappointment.
Flo Rida’s album was…ok…mostly just songs about women, but it Low and Elevator was good songs…..
