8,500 is pathetic.

987,470 is pathetic.

 

[jaguardre]

Usher has a very outside chance of 10 million sold, if he releases one more single off that album he might hit it.....unreal

 

[PACISMAKAVELI]

At this point, it doesnt matter if he makes platinum. This is sad, why are we so delighted 2 see pac hittin a million!?!!?!?!?!?!? FOR FUCKS SAKE!! what happened to waiting to see if he sells 11 million, 4million, 5million? If he makes platinum, its bitter sweet. Sweet:cuz pac is still selling 9 years later. Bitter cuz them assholes at interscope wont realize how they fucked up, amaru wont realize how she fucked up. BY THE WAY...doesnt she read these forums and post here??? if she does, then how the fuck did she let this happen? my bad, im just lettin shit out...

 

[2pacnacho]

I agree with you completely. But the crazy part is that eventhough this album was shitty, no video, no official single, no real promotion, it still outsold NAS, Youngbuck, Trick Daddy, some commercial artists that get a lot of promotion. Maybe this will open the eyes of greedy Interscope or what ever label, that if they promote they can sell more...and unfortunately for us 2pac fans, selling more is better than the quality of the music they give us.

 

[Ay-G]

alomst 1 million is nothing compared to what 2pac is used to. Fuck LTTG. We shouldnt even count LTTG as 2pac's album

Yeah. How the hell did it out sell Nas? Fan base I guess. Lot's of Nas fans, not too many die hard fans.

Piracy seems to be affecting sales too. The sales seem down on what they were a couple of years ago.

I'm over it. I'm just stating a fact.

Am I wrong? Is it not pathetic?

 

[b-hizzel]

yeah dude, I agree, but there was no promotion, obviously no touring or anything else that makes an album sell 3 million, id say 5 million ppl prob heard the album and 4 million prolly decided not to buy it. it was just 1.poor material 2. poor production 3.poor marketing

 

[jaguardre]

i dont think there was really anything that poor about pacs material on LTTG, yes it wasnt his best but its definitely still very good material compared with anything else, points 2 and 3 are where the truth lies.

I gotta agree. We dont like it because its not close to his best. But alot better than most out there.

 

[UnCommon]

alomst 1 million is nothing compared to what 2pac is used to. Fuck LTTG. We shouldnt even count LTTG as 2pac's album

agree wit dis one

 

[Davizz]

LTTG FLOPPED HARD!!! Thanks to all the REAL fans like me who didn't buy it.. dedicated to Afeni Shakur, you don't respect us, we don't respect you.

 

[The_Destroyer]

I feel all y'all on this L2TG "album". Lyrically the material isn't that bad, it's certainly better than most shit out there today, but with Em's production it falls short. Had a real producer gotten their hands on this stuff (like the people Pac worked with) then it could've been so much better. Plus having one cat do an entire album is unprecedented. Aren't there multiple producers on each CD? If you have one guy doing it, especially a producer that produces as a hobby, it's going to sound the same. This exposes Em's weaknesses as a producer, big time, and I'm surprised anybody else gets him to produce their shit after hearing this turd. Real producers mold the beat around vocals, not the other way around. I bet most people who produce mixes on here could've not made as many amateur mistakes as Em did. The bonus tracks showed what it could've been, but was ever denied being. I hope that Afeni sees the drop in sales, the fan reaction, and doesn't let Em touch anymore Pac material. This was a major fuckup, they've got to do it right next time or we won't hear anymore Pac material.
