Yeah, that's probably the truth of it.

Or they decided to have a bit of banter and just fuck around in a record store. Why not?

He's not a businessman, he's a business, man.

I think it's pretty stupid though.

Don't sales come from the amount of CDs shipped to the store? Not how many physical copies were purchased? So buying a bunch has no effect anyway. Right? Unless it means the store has to go order more.

But I'm pretty sure that's how it works.

Certifications go off shipping, sales are sales.

It's a promo thing... definitely not a way for a bump in sales or whatever.

Just letting you know.

Yes, but it's done professionally by the rapper's people/entourage not like this...



Go kill yourself.

He did that for a laugh, not out of desperation like Cole did lol.
