As boneheaded as his rant was, it's really not a good look to see the internet (other places this morning, not ilx) clowning him for calling these assholes out. We should definitely be making sure to shame the guy calling out this behavior, that's completely the best course of action.

I thought ppl liked that...?

yeah i didn't think that was boneheaded or a rant? that was righteous anger

that was the real muthafuckin deal yall

Because of the record's high recording budget of $800,000, there were many worries about whether or not the album would be successful, and the album almost had to top charts internationally just to break even with studio costs. Break the Cycle debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 with first week sales of at least 716,000 copies. It remained at the top the following week with 329,299 copies. In the third week it was number one again with 244,698 copies. In the fourth week it dropped to number 2 with 221,179 copies. It sold over 1,000,000 copies in the first 3 weeks. As of June 2006, it sold 5,467,000 copies in the U.S. alone. Break the Cycle also topped the UK charts, where it was certified platinum, in New Zealand and in Canada, where it had the multi-platinum status. The world sales are around 8 million copies.

What the hell was all that money spent on

I dunno. I've gone looking for an answer but it's uncited and I'm beginning to think it may just be wikipedia vandalism.

Recorded October 2000 – February 2001
Studio NRG Studios, Los Angeles, CA, Longview Farm Studios, North Brookfield, MA, Southbeach Studios, Miami Beach, FL and Electric Lady Recording Studio, NYC, NY

So, let's say they worked five days a week from 10/1-2/28 with a two-week vacation somewhere in the middle. Not everybody working all the time, but studios billing time the whole time. 23 weeks at several pretty pricey studios, I don't know all of these but just the rooms alone absolute bare minimum 500/day and probably more than that -- certain Electric Lady's more than that in '06. knock 25 days off the room rental at that doubtless-wrong rate and you're still spending 45 grand on the room. now pay the producer, his two assistants, catering, drum & guitar techs on call, housing, flights, and you're still only up to about 300k max. double the price of the room and your closer, but if a major label was getting billed 1k/day in 2006 then there's some funny math going on, wherefore I'm saying they spent the money on just being cool

*you're closer I can't let that shit sta(i)nd
