2 Bun B II Trill 97,957 98,344
22 Rick Ross Trilla 17,887 517,159

164 Foxy Brown BX Don Diva 3,989 12,887
-- Kidz in the Hall In Crowd 2,455 6,404
-- Killah Priest Behind... 775 840
This is definately not a complete list. I just like to see it how I see it and alittle more current this some of those lists. I am not too concerce with Mariah and Dream and all that. Cool albums but I when I look at these figs I am looking for specifics. Not that this makes the most of the difference, but atleast it let's me know who I need to go out and support to make sure that hit some goals (if they got'em) or push them over the top. It also is kinda weird when you look at it too. Alot of these artists are from the 90s, with the exception of Ricky Ross, Cool Kids and Kidz in the Hall. Out of these 3, Rick Ross is the only one who is seeing them extra 0s. You could throw Atmosphere in there, since they didn't really get they promenence on till the 2000s but that's a stretch...
So what is up with Kidz in the Hall and Cool Kids getting some love from the youngsters!!! Go out there and buy them dudes albums. Even Lil Mama ain't getting no love like she should if she representing for the youngsters. I hope all you young people aint a bunch of R&B dudes and chicks...cause that and RnR seems to be the only thing selling outside of High School Musical...
