independent
little to no promotion
no real radio single
just dropped the album and real *+!%*! went out and supported....
like dude said he was on the radio in CT and said he would've been good with 45k..
and props to Hov for the record sales....those are real good first week numbers in a hip hop world where *+!%*! don't buy albums at all....

Like someone on page one said, his label is HIS label, so its not necessarily thesame. Jigga's independent as well.
And yea, just like how when Ross did slightly better than Jada when they dropped (Even though they're on the same label) Jada came out the winner causeRoss got waaay more promotion, tour, etc. funds. he has to pay back or take out of his revenue.
But yea 450k is damn good. I wanted to cop the Rae but couldn't find it.
Next up CuDi, I'm plannin on seeing that...

70k on an Independent label with no promotion or real radio single at all? Yeah that is good to the person above who said it was a failure.

Word, if he was on a label that would be something you laugh at. But Rae will definitely see decent bread from the 70k.
