The reason is Rappers are artist aint bringin that shyt... Niggas are tired of buying weak azz CD's with 4 hot songs on it.. But here it from the artist all they shyt is tight!!! I can name the top ten Cd's of the last decade worth buying and keeping one in the plastic... 1.) thug motivation 2.) T.I trap muzik 3.)jay-z blueprint 4.) project pat-mista dont play 5.) jezzy inspiration 6.) the reccession 7.) eightball MJG on top of the world 8.) twista- adrenerline rush 9.) mystikal- unpredictable 10.) master-p ghetto dope.... fuck what cha say...LMAO... all the other cd's have been somewhat dissappointing.........Not worth buying!! get the bootlegg first...lol..

I kind think that music that makes you wanna support the artists is comin back with a vengeance. I could name drop on some artists but that would take the fun out of finding them for me. Finding good music is a journey to me. Enjoy yours.

Criticism in hip-hop and politics, they didn't have rap cliq'ues to riot against back in the 1960's.

It's something wrong with the CD business and not the music business. The Music business is always gonna have politricks in the game to make it harder for the artist to come up.They don't wanna pay for jack nowadays 60,000 sales is like making a million sales along time ago? Something wrong with that in terms of value...I still buy CDs

Look at What we got now. There wasnt limewire and other download shit bout 10 years ago. now that we have it ppl just get the album at their house. I mean if you really like a artist you'll go buy their album and you best believe i will be supporting jeezy when TM 103 come out

I feel the music now does not consist of various types of music...meaning that we can almost predict what a person is going to be talking about before we actually hear it. Also, if individuals have access to free or low price cd's there is no need to pay the store value. Music needs to change by speaking on realistic and motivational issues. SEX, DRUGS, VIOLENCE, NEGATIVITY, o yea SEX again...gets old after so lng ya kno
