Jae Millz – The Flood Warning (Mixtape)
Jae Millz just dropped a mixtape with DJ Ill Will and DJ Rockstar the very same way Bow Wow did yesterday via a random hip hop site. If you didn’t know Bow Wow had dropped a mixtape, that’s fine, I didn’t have a fucking clue either. But it was brought to my attention that Bow Wow was claiming to have gotten 1.1 million downloads of his mixtape in a ridiculously short time frame. Take it from someone who has to watch download numbers rise, or stagnate, that he is lying, and that this kind of fuckery has got to stop. It’s dishonest and who are you lying to besides your fans.
Bow Wow may have 200K followers on Twitter, but unless he’s someone who has an outlet like Soulja Boy does, he still needs websites to post his mixtape, and there is no website that posted it who can cover the 900K downloads that came from thin air (and plus that’s if ALL of his followers downloaded it too.) Even if there were, an artist of Bow Wow’s caliber wouldn’t be getting all that many clicks. One of two things happened here: either the website that’s hosting these two mixtapes told the rappers to send all Twitter traffic their way and that they’ll handle the download numbers, or somebody got paid to sit in front of their computer and botch the download numbers. The 50 Cent sponsored RapInsiderTV (watch part 2 here) basically broke down how crooked websites (like WSFF) get all those bogus views on their videos/anything with a counter.
Another way I know they’re lying is that the Jae Millz mixtape got 200K downloads. Even if he does have 50K followers on Twitter, it’s impossible that every single one of them even knows who he is or what was going on with the release of the mixtape. The Young Money website isn’t even up yet and Lil Wayne deleted his Twitter account, who could possibly be forcing someone to listen to a Jae Millz mixtape? People aren’t rushing to download mixtapes, especially from talentless rappers, but that’s why they have to resort to these kind of tricks.
Also, you expect people to believe you did 1.1 million downloads in a day, but if we were to look at the download number today… it’s still at 1.1 and some change. Someone dropped the ball there.

Stop right there. Can’t lie – all winter I’ve been rocking the dark brown 40-belows with well-fitting jeans sort of tucked into the sides but really just hanging around the perimeter. I get about 2 or 3 compliments per day when I rock those.

As they get older all of these rappers with the shaven mustache and beard are starting to look ghey.

You didnt have to talk about this shit in the same post as the Millz Tape. Really overshadows what I come to this site for: dope music. Not your small and petty webmaster concerns or moral or ethical. Get a personal blog.

^^
I’m pretty sure he promised to do so. But then he realized he had no other options. The movie star thing just isnt gonna happen for him, and his money isnt long enough to sit back and chill somewhere the rest of his life. His problem now is that his original fanbase are grown women now, and his appeal with them has naturally run off. And him catering to preteens now would be mad icky.
January 5th, 2010 at 12:22 pm
Niggas are joking but what Millz has on is classic Lo attire…

Jana Rawlinson has breast implants removed to improve London 2012 medal chances -
Hurdler Jana Rawlinson has had her breast implants removed to boost her chances of winning a medal for Australia at the 2012 Olympics, a magazine has reported. Rawlinson, whose private life has often made headlines in Australia, said she enjoyed having larger breasts but did not want to “short-change Australia”.
“I absolutely loved having bigger boobs, but finally I’ve grown up enough to know myself; to be honest about who I am when I look in the mirror,” Rawlinson told the Woman’s Day magazine.

so it’s safe to say Soulja Boy ethered Bow Wow LMAO

You Def right about bow wow. Buh You Buggin Millz is def not a talent less rapper. i had his mixtape posted since around 11 or 12 last nite its been out. i was waitin for ya to post it. Buh its a decent mixtape. he spitting fire!
January 5th, 2010 at 1:00 pm
I wouldn’t call hotnewhiphop a random site nation!!!!! Btw I jus got me a good wood nyc black jesus piece on ebay for $180. Enjoy life blow money spoil yourself ppl. Its a new year. Be happy do the right things in life
January 5th, 2010 at 1:05 pm
Those Bow-Wow numbers were actually false, kid went diamond out the gate.
January 5th, 2010 at 1:09 pm
eskay is a damn fool
how the fuck he gonna say Jae Millz is talentless?
if it weren’t for Him and Drake i wouldn’t listen to nothing YM puts out.
January 5th, 2010 at 1:10 pm
I mean…honesty is the best policy…Jae Millz has been done for about…5 years now. He was supposed to be one of the new guys from the city and people just never got with it. He was dead in the water and as a last ditch effort was able to latch on to Weezy. Do what you have to I suppose. I know one thing though. I KNOW it hurts not only seeing Drake take off but now Nicki becoming a big force too and you never will…rap game is rough
January 5th, 2010 at 1:19 pm
hotnewhiphop a random site ? lol.. that’s ignorant as fuck

from @Deejayillwill Twitter:
“lol shoutout to nahright for accusing us of faking #’s love the press, if hotnewhiphop which gets 250K “unique” viewers a day features the mixtape in addition to WSHH (200K+ views a day) which posted the download link not to mention Bow Wow having 300K twitter followers a million facebook and myspace friends etc…in addition to the 100′s of blogs and sites that posted the same exact limelinx link how is that unfeasible??? i’m not saying that limelinx is a perfect unflawed system for tracking but shit i never saw anyone hit 500K before EVER! Me and Rockstar got better shit to do with our lives then to fake #’s…we been doing this for over a year the same exact way why fake now? some people would rather hate or throw salt on other peoples accomplishments rather then to pat them on the back and congradulate them. :D Ps. i LOVE life just woke up to a Sunny 70 degree day in Cali….i am laughing and enjoying this def NOT mad just giving my side”
January 5th, 2010 at 3:28 pm
Damn u salty as fck…that mixtape was posted on damn near every hip hop site but yours…I guess u think people will only do numbers if they’re on ya site….I bn knew that mixtape was coming out 4 months now, and the way he promoted it was way over the top…facts close 2 300k followers on twitter/ worls star video with the same link, over a million facebook and myspace friends, other hip hop sites provided the same link…It was FREE… yes limelinx has it’s problems, bt a million downloads on an overly promoted / hyped / FREE mixtape = possible….So You Mad? Why? Cos ur site didn’t post the link…hotnewhiphop a random site? lol u drank that haterade…they’ve dropped every hot mixtape in 09 and continuing on in 2010….Congradulate….
January 6th, 2010 at 9:39 am
Who cares if they lied…Someone sounds salty. Lol at u, if you believe half the sh*t that comes out of the music industry…
Nahright is a dope ass site – but FYI is you think y’all the only hip hop site that matters…
January 6th, 2010 at 5:40 pm
[...] your mixtape’s download page 500,000 times doesn’t [...]
