Yelawolf does 50K, Expected or Flop?

[Man1x]

Doesn't he have a brain of his own? Can't he just raise his voice, when it's getting evident that his Album is not getting promoted. Obviously he didn't rely on the fact that Eminem mentioning him in his 1 or 2 interviews would mean actual promotion, he should have done something in his defense. You can't blame the Label for this.

I doubt he feels hes in a position where he can complain.

Exactly, he probably thinks "I haven't proven I'm worth keeping around in terms of sales like 50 Cent so I have no say unless I want to get kicked off the label."

Yeah..It's a shame really..
Hopefully Shady can pull their heads in and start promoting a little bit better..
They could learn a bit from Cash Money etc..They pin their shit everywhere.

That's probably why everyone jocks their shit.

That's the music industry though, it's pretty superficial..
Sorta like the Grammys.

Why not? Is he asking anything that was not mentioned in his contract? It's his fucking right.

Might just be a thing of respect. You aren't gonna be hired by your boss and demand better treatment right away - granted, I'm sure him and Em discussed it and I doubt it's actually Shady Records that is holding him back with promotion. Who the fuck knows though.

Word.
If that's the case then he and we the fans will get the true picture when SH drops it's Album with or without promotion.

They would prolly release a Single when the Album is ready and is going through the final mastering stage. They did release a song lately but that can't be considered as a promotion though, but still..

This is really weird man. I don't get how artists like Wale or J. Cole are "bigger" than Yelawolf.

Not hating, but they are 1960's TV sitcom boring. Like, really really boring. Yela has (or should have) much more appeal. I'm gonna blame this one on the promotion from Shady.

Hopefully Em will "smart up" and advertise the shit out of the Slaughterhouse album.

I'll admit, Radioactive wasn't really fantastic, but it should of done better than this..
