LOL it wuz a joke homeboyz. it didnt go gold.... i wuz being sarcastic bcuz Lil Wyno said on Back With A Vengeance that Step Into My World wuz thought to go gold. LOL!
and already dead, it doesnt matter how many copies were sold bcuz Dub screwed Lil Wyno over and only gave him about $1,500. he coulda went platinum and he still would have only gotten $1,500.

Wyno CLAIMS that Dub screwed him over, what he DIDN'T say in that interview is that his album didn't even sell 1,200 copies. Now if Dub paid for everything from the mastering, to the photos, to the manufacturing, what makes Wyno believe he deserves ANY money? If I made an album with Woodie and he paid for everything then I KNOW that I don't get to see a dime until Woodie makes his money back. Now, I'm no rocket scientist, but I KNOW that it costs alot more than $1,500 to master and manufacture an album. Feel me?
there wuz a major hype for this album before it dropped in the 408 area, it probably sold more than 1200 copies in the 408 alone. i dont know who's giving you your info but they're bullshitting you.
as far as i know, Dub does his own mastering, he produces beats, and it doesnt cost much for artwork if you hit the right person up. manufacturing would be the most costly part, but even 1200 CDs at 10 bucks a disc will bring in a lot more than $1,500.
depends on how many copies you make. and dont forget the hookups with DRF that Dub had at the time, how do you know it cost him anything at all?
this album is one of the hardest albums to come out of Cali in a long while, there's no way in hell it only sold 1200 copies that's bullshit. i know a whole lot of homeboys who bought this album and that's just in one area of the 408, imagine how many bought it statewide....

I know personally for a fact that the distributor-the music people-only took the first 1,000 copies of that album and then only 200 copies of the second thousand that was ordered because they hadn't even sold all of the first thousand. That's 1,200 copies sold to the distributor, not the consumer. And that was on a 60 day consignment period. They don't pay you for anything that wasn't sold. I don't expect you to believe me. You and I both know that muthafuckas lie on the internet all the time about knowin shit and knowin fools but I'm only tellin you what I know for a fact. Real talk. Of course there's no way for me prove how I know what I know, but I'm just tellin you the real as I know it. One more thing, you're also going by what Wyno claims, while Dub claims somethin else. I don't believe anything or anyone unless I see things for myself, feel me? And I know what I've seen in this situation. And if you know a distributor that pays people $10 a unit, then tell us their name cuz I'm sure there are a gang of fools in here that would love to know.
there's a thing called self distribution homie....
and how is it that you know how many units were sold? it doesnt matter if i believe you or not. let it be known how you get your information. i know for a fact 100 units were shipped to California Music in Gilroy, and they sold out.... and that's a small area of the 408 homie.... where the hell did Dub ship the rest of them? Australia? Wyno's name is pretty big in the streets and if he had shipped more CDs he woulda sold more CDs. plus, muthafuckas lie all the time, whoever's telling you this shit might be lying to YOU! and if it's Dub himself that's telling you this shit, he may be lying. keep that shit in mind, cuz my brain will not allow me to believe only 1200 units were sold when a grip of people were waiting for this CD to drop.
