Look at 50 cent. let say they gave him 8 points on his album, (and thats damn good for a new artist debut). His shit did 4.5 mil, that means he only walked away with $360,000. Thats not even close to a million...and look at how hard he had to work, and how much free underground work he had to do. I mean I got more underground mix tape shit from 50 cent than actual music in the mainstream (personally I think that shit is better than his album)...

50 cent made atleast a million before taxes. Not including the tour shit he's doing. but he's a a unsual case not many people blow up like he did.
Let's break it down normallly gold= break even multi platnum= make money. if this wasn't true canibus wouldn't be able to fund his label. He went gold on both matter of fact he wouldn't be able to leave the label he would be put in record salvery like foxy brown.l
