50k isn't bad when you consider Kreyshawn did 12k. Keef had the wackest verse on his own song (I don't like remix).

Not when you are signed to interscope and had the buzz that Keef had, including a ton of remixes of his song, co-signs from T.I., beef with Lupe, and features from 50 cent, Rick Ross, Wiz Khalifa, and Young Jeezy. That's a disaster and an absolute flop. His label mate Kendrick Lamar sold 242k first week.

Lol I was just being facetious. He sucks.

I find the subject of rappers blowing all their money and ending up broke so fascinating. It reminds me of all the stories I heard about 90s rappers from Nas, Raekwom, Prodigy, etc. Cats were in expensive videos, yet living at home with moms and struggling paycheck to paycheck.
I hope someone makes a documentary or writes a book about it, similar to the ESPN 30 for 30 Going Broke.

That Espn documentary was really good...I still don't understand. They have all the warnings, role models, and failures to look to.
