Pittsburgh rapper Mac Miller Scores #1 with 175-185k, Twilight, Now Bow Rostrum Records rapper Mac Miller’s Blue Slide Park, distributed digitally by INgrooves and physically by Fontana, will debut at #1 smack dab in the middle of Q4, with estimates of between 175-185k, which might even be conservative. This is a triumph of social networking and good, new-fashioned viral marketing, as Malcolm McCormick, the son of a Christian architect father and Jewish mother photographer, transforms his combined 2.7 million Twitter, Facebook and MySpace followers into an impressive debut. This is Miller’s physical full-length debut after a series of well-received digital mixtapes, an EP, On and On and On Beyond, and a smash video in “Donald Trump.” Those figures are based on one-day sales figures from music retailers, some of whom are even holding out at brick-and-mortar outlets, though it’s looking like digital might even surpass physical on this release. ................. It would be good if this mac miller/jazzy jeff album comes out soon it might give Jeff a bit more exposure..strange I know.. but it seems a white kid doing 1993 hip-hop is liked by kids these days..because they aren't taught their hip hop history so they'd rather listen to mac miller than hear brand nubian, krs 1 or a tribe called quest..

If I'm waiting 6 years for a new album I want it to be completely original..

I don't know if Will would do anything.. he might. Jeff is doing a mix tape as a tribute..

the book of eli wasn;t that bad! I think gary whitta might have produced a good script

I think 6 years later ms holy roller is still a phenomenal track.. because lyrically, and skillwise its off the chain but Will is actually saying somethin

I voted for big willie the first time..cause he surprised me by coming out hard.. but big willie killed himself with that second verse.. if someone said that stuff about my wife they'd be dead..and putting that in a verse did nothing for him.. it was good to see brakes come out and slaughter him in a response.. battles are battles but i don't think you need to bring real life personal stuff into it like that.. bw was supposed to be battling brakes not his wife.. <my 2 cents>

yeah you know thats gonna be dope.. Jeff also wrote this on his blog:

these are some of my fav new jack swing tracks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bfFMTOBCPg

its been fun! thanks to brakes for organising!

Rest in Peace to the great man..and I'm wishing you a peaceful journey... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHe6qMzq_Jg

ay yo man, right here is your true hollywood story about to get gory, trying long range but then you see blitz & this here cuts your career short like you was river phoenix see Chris, when I flex, reflect, genuflect & adore me show respect, you reject, cos like ID you’re about to get checked g but no one knows you, or blows you up, you’re in a hole like gaddafi whoring you’re videos out as people shout, “ I can’t stand ya!” you sucked more than a porn star and now you have throat cancer I don’t play coy, see I punch lines like Conan --- and leave you laughing your lines don’t play boy, like a naked Lindsey Lohan --- leave you barfing you better pray boy, you’re an actor without a trailer avoiding your acting coach, cos I’m gonna have to fail ya yeah man, even from all the way here in australia I can see you’re faker than lady gaga’s female genitalia I’m Tiger Woods, you just a cocktail waitress I’m sinking holes, while you’re stuck trying to make vids

What??? I loved Heavy D!! Peaceful Journey.... one of my fav songs of all time..

ohhh shhhhh!!! that was vicious! big willie came hard!! but so did brakes.. wow this will be close

lets get the semi finals cracking then!

all these new artists, chris brown, rihanna, ne-yo.. need to listen to this album and see how its done! no autotune..just real good voices, singing and harmonies! music done right! soulful!

I've never been a huge boyz II men fan.. but I got this album on AJ's recommendation.. wow this is dope! really good music!

schnazz spent way too much time dissing me..you're opponent was silvertiger! still funny though

I love love love this album!! Jazz Rap is back!

awesome! hopefully when Will releases a new single it will get people back to this site and we can get the battles jumpin!

Ted had some great references in his verse but didn't hit hard enough for me! Great battle guys! do americans get "tiny teddy's"? it's a small biscuit for those who didn't get the reference..

hehe that was fun.. it's amazing how short 16 lines is! there was so much i wanted to put in there but had to cut.. i liked ted's tiki barber line haha

I eat your diminutive derivative rhymes, you will find me deadly Big ted? Nah small fry, eenie weenie, puny like a tiny teddy I’m gargantuan, I stand taller than a sasquatch, man So big you see me from Melbourne to Saskatchewan I’m a baller, you coming up shorter than a marriage to Kim Kardashian You’re the farthest from a true artist, You’re just plain average man Damn right I’m the hardest, you so soft you’d make a fine spouse Dressed in a white blouse, dropping flows deader than Amy Winehouse I’m Kobe, I’m ice, you jacking up Shaq free throws You can’t pass me, you try, but get picked off like Tim Tebow Start fasting man, it’s the rhyming Ramadan, the bright phenomenon You froze, out of ideas praying for a hit like M Night Shyamalan My flow track so phat -- you’re below that Underneath my thumb, boot, spell and you know that My smile grows so wide, but you hardly even grinning Big Ted you’re a loser, while I’m Charlie Sheen winning

You need to add the poll when you make the posts.. I don't think you can add them after 24 hours.. I think we can trust people not to vote until after the battle is finished..

excellent!
