I think dude doesnt really know how small the internet base is when it comes to selling units.

When he created Thisis50, the traffic was so huge, the views, feedback and all, like millions per view, people commenting on his songs, videos sayin how dope they are, and he really thought it was a huge ammount of people watching and rooting for 50

After TOS low sales, he still aint learned.I mean, Elephant in the sand was a great tape and over here, it had like 500 000 downloads in a matter of days,50 thinking the same response would be for the album.
But he was wrong man

Same with Buddens, each time he hosts one of his dumb ass Live streams, there are like tens of thousands watchers, each Joe Budden thread in SOhh are over 10 000 views and yet, dude sells 14 000 online.

50 Cents First week Sales Thread in Sohh is over 150 000 views, MJ Death was only 50 000 or something, and yet, sales are low…Thats Becoz 90% of those people come there for entertainment, not music.Those are not rap fans anymore, those are bored people that like this whole Ross Said That, 50 said that, Ross Sold That, 50 is Selling this thing.

Hiphop Has Become somewhat of Entertainment, and 50 made it contrebute.With his pimping Curly etc.

Thats When rappers stop focusing on making dope music and think all their twitter followers will buy albums/

I mean Jim Jones and 50 have over 1 million followers on Twitter,Jesus Man, Not even a 10th of that bought the album.There are rappers who cant sell and they have 500 000 twitter followers.

I think twitter and other thisis networks shoulds be other way around, Instead
of a member joining the Twitter or Thisis and than leaking albums, etc, he/she would have to buy the album first at the Twitter store or Thisis50 store and with that given the
Confirmation code, than be able to follow/Join.

I mean, theoretically speaking, those 1.3 million people following 50 cent, why are they following him? 50 cent is a rapper,he sells CD’s for living, shouldnt his sales be 1.3 million?

Those people following him all have high speed internet access, computers and internet bill plans, and they cant afford 15 Dollars an album CD?

i think soon rappers will start eliminating THisis and Twitter…I think 50 will actually delete his twitter account or Thisi50 in spite of low sales.

As its clearly hurting the sales, rather than helping, as 50 Thought and overestimated it.
