No, what I said was P put asses in the seats in the 90's In particular the late 90's. I also gave you the Grosses of his tours. You said he did not do well money wise until 2004. eek These books have nothing to do with concert ticket sales.

Ok... I won't comment on this....you keep switching our converstion from "what streets want" to "putting a$$es in the seats." No one ever said he couldn't fill the arena....the brotha is off the hook...everyone knows that. We were talking about his product and how no one outside of 'US' knew what he was doing in the late '90's....

I got nothing but love 4 U..... Lets be friends...can we do that?

Once again you started talking about money and how P was not making any. I have agreeded with you he was not selling a lot of records due to a lot of reasons outside of the quality of the music. However,he has not had trouble selling concert tickets for over the last decade. I don't understand why you think radio is going to play anything by an artist over 40. It is does not happen and it does not matter if P works with Timberland, Puffy or the producer of the moment. The best P is going to do in Adult Comtempory RnB.

Let's end this obession with P selling millions of CD on this thread. It is not going to happen and he seems to be okay with it as I do not see him rushing to work with any of the producers I listed above.
