Follow My Lead, I'll Hold You Down, Put Your Trust In Me...

As you can see, I've been posting a little more often. Things just happen so fast that sometimes, there's no time to look back.

On my mind at the moment:
So it's been almost 2 weeks now since the release of the hyped Kanyeezy and 50 Cent albums.

Kanyeezy vs Fiddy

Toe to Toe

Sound scan has shown that both albums have had ridiculous numbers. Which is good and bad for the music industry. The Good side: PEOPLE STILL BUY GOOD MUSIC. Even though there is the ability to download everything and anything on the web, PEOPLE will show support for GOOD music. The Bad side: the music industry as a whole is a plummeting fireball, and industry suits don't understand that people will not fall for the bullshit. For decades the record industry has devised a business model that is volume = $$$. The more that's out there, the more $$$ is attained. Consumers have gotten smart to this, and are now learning... Example, who out there really spent their $12.99 on a William Hung album??? The Industry Suits are putting out anything and everything to make a fast buck... There's no more QUALITY is what's coming out. And now that 50 and Yee have released, these old industry suits will think that the market is back on the up swing. THAT IS NOT THE CASE... The reason that 50 and Yee have sold the way they do is because they release QUALITY music!!! Until the industry hits rock bottom, these suits will never learn that as a consumer, we have gotten smarter then expected. As Kanyeezy put it: "Cuz we don't wanna here that weak shit no mo'".

Finally, My opinion on the 50 vs Yeezy, I'm not going to lie, Kanyee's that dude, but this time, the 50 album is a better packaged and produced album... but that's just my opinion....
