According to industry insiders (who's identity I will NEVER release' cuz I ain't on "The First 48") LL Cool J's latest release, appropriately entitled "Exit 13," symbolizing his 13th and final album as part of a multi-album deal signed with Def Jam may not sell 50,000 copies in its first week.My original feelings about the G.O.A.T.'s marginal success we of sympathy and disappointment then it hit me "I haven't even heard the damn album and don't care much for the single." Furthermore, he's had 13 albums....way more than most artist unless you like PRINCE or somebody.
Should LL be upset that he didn't see any records,of course but in the history of his last few albums, who will he blame this time. JAY-Z is gone, the deal with G-Unit kind of disappeared, and he probably could have gotten out his deal after....say album 10. The bottom line is you can't make people support you. If its over, its just over.
The above statements were in no way intended to disrespect you Mr.James Todd Smith or you Mr.LL Cool J but even you two stopped wearing FUBU at some point in your life,just look at your album and career as "PLATINUM" FUBU...we loved it for a long time but eventually moved on.
