December 9, 2008 by Porky · 2 Comments
Below is a list of the Top 15 Worst-Selling Rap & R&B Albums that debut at the top of the charts from the past 15 years (1991 to 2006).
21 is the second album from R&B singer and former B2K frontman Omarion. The first single off the album was “Entourage” written by Andre Merritt and produced by Eric Hudson. The second single “Ice Box”, produced by Timbaland and King Logan and Sir John of The Royal Court.nOther collaborators on the album include Pharrell, songwriter Bryan Michael Cox and Andre Merritt (writer of Entourage) and Eric Hudson (producer of “Entourage”, respectively). The album landed at number one in the Billboard 200, selling 119,000 copies in its first week. Making it his second album to hit #1, although selling 60,000 less than his debut solo album O. It has sold 390,000 copies in the United States up to November 2008.
Ghetto Classics is Jaheim’s third album with Warner Bros. Records. The album is the follow up to his two well established platinum records. The album was released in February 2006, and debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, selling 153,000 copies in its first week of release. Shortly after it quickly fell down the charts. Still, the album was the first R&B #1 album of the year (Mary J. Blige’s The Breakthrough and Jamie Foxx’s Unpredictable were released in late 2005 and hit #1 in early 2006). The album has spawned the moderate hit “Everytime I Think about Her”, featuring Jadakiss. Although the album stayed on the album charts for only thirteen weeks, it was certified Gold on March 21, 2006.
Reality Check is an album from rapper Juvenile which was released on March 7, 2006. It became Juvenile’s first album to hit number one on the Billboard 200 chart, selling 176,000 copies in its first week. As of February of 2007 the album had sold 527,000. The album was leaked to the Internet on February 22, 2006, two weeks before its official release. It features artists such as Paul Wall, Mike Jones, Fat Joe, and Ludacris making guest appearances, among others. The first single was “Rodeo” produced by Cool and Dre, which charted on the Hot 100 and peaked at a modest #41. The second single was “Get Ya Hustle On”, followed by “Way I Be Leanin’”, which premiered on MTV’s Making the Video.
Unfinished Business is the second collaboration LP between R. Kelly and Jay-Z (following The Best of Both Worlds, their first collaboration in 2002), released in 2004. The album was, allegedly, composed of previously unreleased tracks from the Best of Both Worlds sessions. It was seen by critics and the general public as just a money making opportunity for both artists and a play to push a summer tour. The first single was “Big Chips”.

Top 10 Reasons Why Kanye West Is a Douche
November 24, 2008 by Porky · 5 Comments
Everyone should know by now that Kanye has a big ego and loves the attention. He will say and do whatever to keep himself in the spotlight from his antics during the 2006 VMA to calling out Bush on national TV. Here’s an article I found recently listing the Top 10 Reasons Why Kanye West Is a Douche.
Kanye West is a douche for many, many reasons, but it is easy to falter and find yourself thinking “Man, that Kanye’s a pretty wicked dude”. It happens to the best of us, we falter at times, but it shouldn’t have to happen. I have narrowed the proofs of his douchiness down to a ten-point emergency checklist that folds easily into your pocket or wallet for those times when his blinding douchebaggery eludes you.
1. He douched out at the Grammy’s when he took the stage to accept his award, refused to leave the stage when his time was up, and then actually told them to stop playing the get-off-the-stage music so that he could keep talking. Me Kanye. I bes vewy, vewy important.
2. His new album, due out on November 24th, is a departure from his usual style, as he sings more than he raps. That is all good and well, because he is a talented musician, but then he had to go and douche it up by saying that this change in style is an attempt to challenge the likes of Jimi Hendrix and Paul McCartney, who he describes as “those artists in black and white photos”, because taking a crap on music legends serves to make Kanye’s genius obvious to all and sundry.
3. In a recent interview, Kanye said, and I am not kidding: “I realize that my place and position in history is that I will go down as the voice of this generation, of this decade, I will be the loudest voice. It’s me settling into that position of just really accepting that it’s one thing to say you want to do it and it’s another thing to really end up being like Michael Jordan.”

2. Benefit - Warp to World 6-9 (Sampled from Super Mario Bros)
Atlanta rapper Benefit is most famous for this song “Warp to World 6-9″ aka “Super Mario Bros. Freestyle”. In this track he raps about his journey to get to the Princess’s goodies. He released his only album in 2002 called “B.E.N.E.F.I.T.”
