The Numbers Game: New Money
You see what they made me do? The releases are so slow right now that I had to go make a banner for The Numbers Game because I didn’t know who should be pictured (I mean, I could have threw Rihanna up there, but that would have been f*cked up.)
The Numbers Game: Beyonce Stays On Top
You know there must be a shortage of Hip-Hop releases when Beyonce gets the picture…twice. I’m not gonna really gonna go into about how there are no relevant Hip-Hop album coming out in the beginning of 2009; if you read any past Numbers Game columns this year you already know I said this a hundred [...]
The Numbers Game: Kanye Stays At #4
We still here? I thought a Numbers Game this week wouldn’t see the light of day, but here we are. But hey, we’ll talk about that drama another time. Even though this January has been rough for the nappyafro crew, I can’t wait for this releases to start coming in. Think about it: Mariah Carey [...]
The Numbers Game: Kanye Goes Platinum
Damn, it’s 2009 already? After almost doing this column 40 times now, it still feels like I just started this yesterday. What does ‘09 hold for Hip-Hop on the charts? We’ll see a new Eminem album, maybe Detox, hopefully Blueprint 3 as well as a host of other releases (January looks slack as hell by [...]
The Numbers Game: Soulja Boy Debuts At #43
What? You thought I was gonna miss out on telling you how much Plies and Soulja Boy sold last week. Consider this a early X-Mas present; The Numbers Game is here a day early (Now in paragraph format!). A lot of artists benefited from the holiday shopping boost (while some didn’t). Well since H20’s iSouljaboytellem [...]
Plies|Da Realist
No this is not a glitch in the matrix, Plies has released another album THIS year. While everyone is complaining on how bad the market is, Plies is dropping music. Plies, has saw some success with two gold albums under his belt, now it’s time to turn it into platinum. Six months ago, Plies dropped [...]
The Numbers Game: Plies Readies For Gold
Even though Weezy push over the 2 million mark in album sales this week, I just couldn’t bring myself to put his picture in this column again (It’s been like 4 weeks out of 7!). Is Plies a good alternative? Not really, but what can you do. The man has a great chance of doing [...]
Maino feat. Swizz Beatz, Jadakiss, Fabolous, T.I., & Plies – “Hi Hater” (remix)
You know we don’t like looking like other sites out there, but sometime we feel obligated to “break” new songs when they hit the web. So whenever it’s something with a lot of heavyweights on it, there’s a good chance that you might see it featured on the Fro’.
Good Songs by Bad Rappers
When you name the greats in Hip-Hop, who do you name? 2Pac, Biggie, Jigga, Nasty Nas, Weezy, Outkast, etc. But each and everyone of those artists made a slip-up in their career: 2Pac had fillers on All Eyes on Me (and all of those albums AFTER he died), Biggie had a copule slip-ups on Life [...]
D Tells…
In this weekly post I will just rant and rave about what I see going on in Hip-Hop and will decide whether Hip Hop is alive or dead for the current week. Enjoy.
