I wanted a higher number for Kendrick. It bugs me that Ross did 218k.
MMG is pretty much a failure
218k isn't a good number for the "hottest rapper in the game" and the boss. Imagine if Jay-Z did that number, would be sad. Don't see Dreams & Nightmares doing any more than 150k. If they released it right after Ima Boss and Tupac Back, maybe
And yeah, Wale sucks now. Ambition was a joke album besides the title track (Probably Rozay's best verse ever)

MMG aren't working to Wale's strengths, Wale at his best potential can outshine everyone on the label, maybe even Stalley, but he's dumbing himself down. I still think he's a dope artist, and is putting out good music. (I enjoyed Ambition).
Shyne Explains Why He Thinks Kendrick Lamar's "good kid, m.A.A.d city" Is "Trash"
Last night, Shyne took to Twitter to state that he thought Kendrick Lamar has talent but that good kid, m.A.A.d city is "trash." Clarifying his standpoint during an interview with the Cipha Sounds & Rosenberg show, the former Bad Boy rapper explained that he feels K. Dot was fed into the hype machine but that he failed to deliver on his promise.
"I ain't starting no trouble. Listen, y'all live in the United States of America. We don't live in the United States of Aftermath, Jimmy Iovine doesn't pay me, I can say whatever I want," said Shyne. "I'm not talking reckless. I said the young boy got potential and I said he was talented, but the album is trash. That's tough love.
"What I said wasn't not nice, I didn't attack him as an individual, I didn't say anything disrespectful," he continued. "It's trash! I don't really listen to these rappers, but I heard him on a few joints and I was like, shorty's nice. ... So when he was coming out with an album, I was like, I'ma hear more of that."
Po went on to explain that he wasn't feeling the production on the project, and that he'd rather hear a spoken word album if that's the route he wanted to take. "Beats is trash, number one. And once your beats are trash, you're finished because you can't handle a good flow. I don't really want to hear what you gotta say. I'll go buy Dr. Cornel West's album if I want to hear someone talk."
He said that he felt a responsibility to be honest about his opinion because he didn't want Kendrick to drink his own Kool-Aid. "I feel bad for him because everybody's gassing him right now, everyone's on him. He on fire because of that Interscope machine, he's on fire because of that Dr. Dre machine. He's nice, but that's a lot of hype. All I'm saying is, to show y'all I'm not a hater, 50 [Cent] delivered. I never had nothing positive to say about him, but he delivered. He lived up to the hype."
LOL. I disagree 100%, but I guess I respect it. I mean, does Shyne seem like the type of cat who would like this album? He doesn't seem like the kind of cat who would "get it". At least he explains himself and sticks to his guns.
I don't get why some people are getting all upset at Shyne. It's his opinion. There's some people out there that think Illmatic or Ridin' Dirty are trash, that's fine, that's their opinion, I'm not gonna upset about it. If someone said it here, I might debate about it a bit just for shits and giggles, but I don't really care.
I kind of respect him for the wackjob that he is right now based solely on the fact that he's sticking to his beliefs no matter how much ridicule goes his way. You can tell he actually believes in everything he says.
Ma$e goes to become a priest, gets made fun of then is back to "Murda Mase" 3 years later. And although that voice is fucking horrible he's still got bars.
Shyne is an irrelevant bum who will namedrop anyone to get attention again. How many times has he namedropped Diddy in the past few months? 250? He got raped in prison multiple times, his voice changed, and his career is over. Feel bad Diddy fucked him over, but that's Diddy
