1 DRAKE YM/CASH MONEY/UNIV MOTOWN 462,989*
So Drake didn’t sell a billion copies of Thank Me Later huh. I can’t say I’m all that surprised. I figured he’d probably do a respectable 500-600K, but I was also prepared for him to do something completely ridiculous like 2 million. Over saturation can either work for you or against you and this seems to be a case of the latter. Not that I blame his handlers/Universal for flooding the market. That’s what your supposed to do with an artist that’s buzzing right? I suppose. I think there’s a balance that needs to be struck though. You don’t want people to walk into the record store and say “who the fuck is this guy”, but you also don’t want them thinking, “not this fucking guy again”.
Miss Info got word on Mick Boogie’s Southernplayalisticmaybachmusic mash-up mixtape that drops tomorrow.
As you can probably tell from the title, it’ll have Big Boi on Ross songs like “Super High” and Ross on Big Boi classics like “Player’s Ball” and newer tracks too like “Shine Blockers”.
The inspiration for the project most likely came from Rozay’s mention on the “Window Seat” remix.

1. Mick Boogie – Intro
2. Big Boi ft. Rick Ross – Return Of The G
3. Rick Ross ft. Big Boi – Super High
