I keep screaming this

Read Motley Crue's "The Dirt"

Nikki talks about how The label called them in and basically said fire john Corabi and get back Vince or we will not support anything u do.

This is obviously happening here. They are basically telling Axl to get back with the original or we aren't supporting shit.

Catcher without the horrible guitar solos

hence enter DJ Ashba

radio is a give and take business. if u aren't giving them interviews, they aren't going to play your shit.

A huge media blitz and radio junket would've done huge things for CD.

people blame Best Buy but they sold it to the highest bidder which is why I laugh when peope trash and talk shit about Slash.

so u know the foot traffic BB gets and how few of stores there are. If u still sell it to them, u have no right to complain.

CD is only a flop due to the hype and mystique behind it. numbers wise, it honestly didn't do horrible all things considered. I think it flopped from a musical standpoint. It was just released in November and I haven't had a desire to listen to it in 2 months. I've listened to the UYI more in the last month than CD. I've even listened to TSI more.

pac is one of the greatest if not the greatest rapper of all time.

Trust me, he wouldn't have been a footnote. He would still be a major major rapper today.
