It is a sad, sad day people and by sad I mean VERY sad. The weekly album sales are in and Royce Da 5’9″, who is one of the biggest names on the blogs/websites/internet, etc moved about as many units Mack 10. Wait a minute, does that even make sense? I’m kinda confused because Lil Boosie dropped an album or mixtape and sold damn near DOUBLE the amount that Royce sold. Kid Cudi is STILL moving more units than Royce. I can’t say that I’m surprised but I am more so just disappointed and lost. Drake is still going strong, Jay sold another 45K and the Black Eyed Peas are still doing the same. Peep.

I wish HipHopDx would start lying about these numbesr to make me feel better. Looks like rappers better be pop or perish.
I tried to buy it at Best Buy and they had one copy on order. They told me it was internet only…B.S.. I called the manager out and complained. Hastings didn’t have it either.
