    It hurts bruh there's alot of potential out here but the mediocre white dude blows up first...

    shout out to Trip Lee for having the #2 album tho dude deserves all the props he gets.

    I haven't heard of him either and I'm listening to new York radio all the time..

    Not sure if he outsold nicki but #1 on iTunes is big especially for hip hop standards..pretty much guarantees a top 5 album on billboard.

    #1 on itunes is nothing. especially considering he probably wont be there for long.

    ^^^^^ I get what you're saying but it's something that Styles P, Mobb Deep, Lloyd Banks, Cam'ron, Jadakiss, ? /ghost/Rae etc. unfortunately couldn't do...Hip hop is in a ? position atm with new York hit the hardest

    Lol ? act like half a dozen other cities be having a whole bunch of dominant rappers on the charts and ? tho. Yes New York hip hop done fell off but name 2 other cities in the past year where 3 artists have been number 1 with considerable sales? Hell Toronto has more artists that have been number 1 on the charts in the past 12 months with just drake than most cities in the country. Whens the last time houston, DC, phili, atlanta, miami, oakland, or los angeles had a bunch of chart topping rappers tho (and come with sources).

    While sales are not the end all of how good an album no city is "killing the charts" on a consistent basis.

    @LV_Don my ? im talking about in the past year....I ? with the old school ATL like outkast killer mike jeezy and tip. But B.O.B. aint doing the same numbers without a pop single which he doesn't have at the time ? had a single out since february and its not making an impact and strange clouds single came and went. Future is on of the biggest joke in modern hip hop. That one hit wonder autotune ass ? will never have consistent album sales.

    I got fam in GA in both albany and atl and yes future popping there and the deep south but he ain't ? outside the deep south really. And lol at flocka he set ATL trap rap back 40 years with his ? ass gimmick the ? don't even rhyme. And his albums have all been flops. Again huge fan of the old ATL rapper but that city fell off too. And 2 chainz is aight but he wont move albums....and luda fell off in the past 3 years or so. He came to my school and killed our spring concert up here in CT but it was his old hits that carried him he aint had any new fire album wise in forever.
