First Week Album Sales for Messy Marv + Random News

Messy Marv's Draped Up and Chipped Out 2 sold 1,700 units

Too Short has a solo album coming out next tuesday, December 4th, called "Get Off The Stage." I think this is his last album on Jive. The single off the album is "This My One" ft. E-40.

Mistah F.A.B. and Turf Talk are scheduled to drop a project called "Hyphy Aint Dead" on December 18th. This is going to be a siccness release...and I have high hopes. The only siccness release I've heard was that "Messy Slick" album and that one was quality.

C-Bo is back in jail for a parole violation.

Album Sales

I don't have access to Soundscan, but if you search hard enough, you can find a lot of shit on the internet. Everyone always wonders how much local albums sell. I have access to a top 200 indepedent sales chart that comes out every wednesday that should help those who are curious.

Da Bidness (Keak Da Sneak, Messy Marv, PSD) sold 1,043 copies last week to bring its total up to 7,392. Not too bad since 10,000 is pretty much like going gold based on how most albums sell out here....or maybe not, but I doubt anyone is disappointed with these numbers.
