It's been a tough race in 2014, and unfortunately for those who dropped albums, no ones quite made it to the finish line. Week one numbers for Rick Ross' "Mastermind" and Young Jeezy's "Seen It All" came in strong, but not strong enough. Iggy Azalea's "The New Classic," along with Wiz Khalifa's "Blacc Hollywood" had a tough time passing 400,000! But are these artists really hip hop artists?
According to Billboard, ZERO albums have yet to go platinum in 2014.
Is hip hop dead? Can any REAL hip hop artists step up to the plate, change the game back to the way it should be, and come back with a strong victory here? Nas, Kanye West, Kendrick Lamar --we NEED you!
Eminem, Fabolous and T.I. are all set to drop new albums this fall. Let's hope they come through clutch with some dope material and SAVE the little bit left we have of 2014 and finish off strong by starting off 2015 the RIGHT way!
