Consumers Terminate G-Unit On Sight

For the record, Curtis is the one who likes to make every album release about sales rather than good music, and so rather than talk about how good/bad T.O.S. is, we’re gonna talk about how little it sold.
Billboard put’s the Unit’s first week number at 102,000, which actually isn’t bad if your name isn’t Curtis.
To put that in perspective, Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter III, which has been in stores for four weeks, moved 156,000. That’s 54K more than the Unit after the first week hype for those of you keeping score at home.
No doubt the same Unit stans who would have spent the day counting Boo Boo’s money had he sold a millie this week, will show up shortly to tell me how I’m “hating” or explaining that Curtis did his real #’s overseas or some such nonsense.
And I mean, it’s whatever. The fact is, I don’t hate the Unit or their music. I enjoyed the shit out of that Curtis and Mr. Cee mixtape, and Return of the Bodysnatchers stayed in the whip for a good two weeks.
What I hate is this shit, and this. This too. All that extra shit is corny and if your true fans had any sense, they’d be insulted by those antics.

50 Cent and his crew put some stuff on his site about Interscope possibly sabotaging his album with Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo. Now, I have some source within Interscope and they gave some indication of what has transpired from within. First, from what I understand,what 50 charged is true: there was a shortage of T.O.S. albums available. A lot of stores did not even receive T.O.S. or got very few copies. Big retails stores like Best Buy did not even display T.O.S with the new releases, from what I heard.
Now, there is a complimentary layer to this. From what I hear, the big dogs at Interscope are getting tired of their inability to manage 50 Cent. He dissed them and they are tired of him speaking out against them, from what I have been told. On top of it all, they got very upset – allegedly – when the G-Unit general launched thisis50.com and started putting free music on there along with the music videos to boot.

by the way, the album is so far the best since. sheesh can’t remember but it’s definitly better than lil wayne’s album. so the numbers yeah it is what it is, but i’m glad i got the album i was looking forward to. them returning to the aggressive mixtape type material instead of catering to the standard walk on by fans (sans i like the way she do it). it’s a street new york album, something i’ve been missing for awhile from new york artists. 4/5 mics

I don’t know why this is a surprise at all. Every G-Unit project since 2005 has flopped. Massacre sold to the naive white girls and guys who missed the first round of 50 mania, but everything else was flop city.
I mean, yeah, “Curtis” went platinum, but it has to be the weakest platinum of all time.

And the thing is, I like a couple of G-Unit songs that are floating around, and you can tell they’re actually trying harder than one would think…
…but the extracurriculars turn me off completely. I mean, Kanye wilds out every now and then, but it’s because he gives a fuck about progression and quality.
Curtis goes off cuz he needs attention–his entire career has been built off this and then when GRODT did 6 mil, everyone used beef to sell, and now nobody cares anymore about that stuff.
I mean, it used to be exciting when a rapper would take shots at another one–it was rare, like seeing a fight in school. Only thing is, once you havea fight every day, the shit gets old and you just wonder when it’ll stop.
Applaud the interscope machine for making beef/controversy the selling point for every major rap album they’ve put out since 1992.

and i didnt expect TOS to sell anywhere close to wayne…

True, but at this point I’m not convinced The Game will do much better. I don’t know if the interest will be there like it was for Documentary and Doc’s Advocate–even tho’ I think the Doctors Advocate was really fuckin’ brilliant–except for the jamie foxx song.
Seriously, Jamie Foxx fucked that song up, and did the same on that song from Diddy’s Press Play (altho’ pharrell helped ass that one up too).
Anyway, Game’ll be happy to sell 102,001 copies just to talk shit at Curtis. And you know the Unit’s downfall was getting rid of Game–all of 50’s talk about loyalty and nonsense went out the window, so when he went from cosigning Game as the future to saying he wasn’t shit, 1/3 of his audience left to support game, and another 33% left cuz they thought it was ridiculous, leaving the remaining 3rd.

Yep. For real, for all the Detox talk–and I’d cop Detox first day it came out, if it ever does–if Detox never came out, I’d put Doc’s Advocate right up there with the Chronic albums. Classic west coast shit, great concepts, beats, delivery.. Sure, the “rhymes same thing twice” thing got annoying, but that was a complete album, not just a collection of singles.

no im not..its a quote from hov..
anyone who is successful will always be tested..its obvious..look how many people come on the internet to talk about g-unit in a negative way…give it until next year all wayne fans will be shitting on him..its just funny 2 me because i have been shitting on him ever since that pic with him kissing on his “daddy” came out..but half of the million people that bought that piece of shit album..will have something negative to say about him by next year..its just the way life is..

He put it out to fill contract obligations…. I think he can care less about flopping on interscope! He’s just trying 2 get off interscope or at least RE-UP on that contract!

like he said “pro 50 or anti 50..its still 50.

If Game does 100k plus, it should be considered a success.
Hmm, Game hasn’t made a blatant radio single since The Documentary. The singles off Doc’s Advocate were really good– One Blood had a lot of industry commentary, Let’s Ride went hard (pause) even tho’ the beat was accessible (and fucking amazing, by the way–props, tuff jew), and Wouldn’t Get Far was really clever.
That being said, Game’s Pain is a good, fun summer song–roll down the windows, bump, enjoy. Altho’ the title is stupid. Song doesn’t sound like he’s in pain at all.

you give him too much credit. putting out a bad album just to finish out a contract isn’t a smart business move. go ahead and put out two garbage albums back to back (three if you count curtis, TOS and the next frisbee) and see where your career goes. ask method man.
July 9th, 2008 at 12:35 pm
pshaw. if they had put out an album of quality cuts it might have sold. same goes for every album.
I cant explain lil wang though. thats just plain wierd
July 9th, 2008 at 12:35 pm
the problem wasnt that the cd’s werent available. the problem was the available cd’s didnt sell.

@ Moneyray
Im not comparing D-block to Gunit, im simply saying that since 50 always says sales > music, is interesting to see what he will come up with..
D-block has never been big sellars nor brag about record sales so when and if d-block tanks nobody will be shocked but they will know to expect good music

Mixtapes > Albums (except for NaS)
Why do albums anymore? When it’s proven that if your buzz is that hot from the mixtapes you can make a good living, all profit, wayne went on tour, doing shows for 2 years straight w/o a album, G-unit did it before they dropped, just get a hot street buzz, sign to a independant, & live like that, maybe sign a deal where they throw you hella bread cause your already hot, & wham there you go

Pff… Every G-unit project since “Massacre” has flopped. Someone’s gonna sign him to a big money deal cuz of the 2003-2004 G-Unit campaign, and they’re gonna get shit on their investment. Let’s keep it real, 12 years ago someone game Juwon Howard a hundred million dollars.
Juwon. Howard.
MoneyRay is right tho’, the same people that love Weezy this year will get bored and start looking for The Next Big Thing and forget all about him. The internet fans bigged up Weezy, and the mags and TV stations went, “ooh, he’s got ‘buzz’! Let’s ride the wave!” then the people who read the mags and watch the tv stations said, “ooh, he’s the next big thing! let’s goooooo!”, and here we are today. Wayne’s played this thing very well…but he’s still an average rapper at best.
In terms of the “Rewind” factor, he’s not even in the top 20. I can’t think of one line that was dope or transcendant or classic. I can, however, think of a buncha cute little one liners and silliness.
I have the luxury of hating 50 and Weezy cuz of their mediocre talent since waayyy before it became cool, and ask the vets, I’m not a hater like that at all.

rrahha Says:
50 Cent and his crew put some stuff on his site about Interscope possibly sabotaging his album with Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo. Now, I have some source within Interscope and they gave some indication of what has transpired from within. First, from what I understand,what 50 charged is true: there was a shortage of T.O.S. albums available. A lot of stores did not even receive T.O.S. or got very few copies. Big retails stores like Best Buy did not even display T.O.S with the new releases, from what I heard.
Now, there is a complimentary layer to this. From what I hear, the big dogs at Interscope are getting tired of their inability to manage 50 Cent. He dissed them and they are tired of him speaking out against them, from what I have been told. On top of it all, they got very upset – allegedly – when the G-Unit general launched thisis50.com and started putting free music on there along with the music videos to boot.
^^^^WTF?
Shortage= Demand>Supply, which= CD is SOLD OUT EVERYWHERE & Customers are going in a frenzy because they can’t purchase T.O.S. What, you really think Interscope shipped 102,000 copies and that was it?
And my friend, I don’t think that was the case here. Peeps are tired of their antics and half-ass music. It’s the same regurgitated nonsense from that entire crew. They once showed promise and now they’re back to earth. Let’s be honest these Negroes weren’t elite in terms of TALENT. So this should not come to anyones surprise.

***I’m far from an e-thug- I’m a regular dude, with a regular temperment- I can understand how a bitch ass nigga like yourself could mistake candor for aggression, though—-for the record, you started the name calling, moneygay- you’re obviously a 90’s baby still trying to shake of your neonatal crack addiction, so I’mma cut you some slack, just like your pop’s daisy dukes…you have no idea who my favorite rapper is, so I don’t understand why you’re bringing that into the equation, but w/e, w/e….but for the record, it’s Nas, and if he can’t crack 80K, I’ll be surprised, but not heartbroken- I gravitate towards artists for the music, not the money, but I can understand how a starstruck young homosexual like yourself could be blinded by the limelight- who knows, maybe with enough idolization and dickriding, you can get Spider Loc to take you shoe shopping one day, or something….

only creative bone in his body is probably Baby’s
there are atleast 10 albums in the last 5 years better than this.

Look at Fif’s beefs…they aren’t with major players. Outside of Nas, he doesn’t really go hard at someone above his level. Granted he’s supposedly hollered at TI (though I disliked King), it isn’t direct or proven, so I’ll say he still either 1-takea shot and makes an excuse when he loses or 2-finds a lame duck to eek out a few thousand more hopeful units with some PR game. (see his son’s Mom as a recent example)
