“3.3 million followers and it takes me weeks to get to 40/50k sales…Where yall at? What are yall doing?!!…I’d rather have 50k hardcore fans than have 3.3 million fake ones,” he posted.

“In South Africa and all over the world, records sales are not what they used to be, so I’m thinking to myself, I’ve got 3.4 million, so why don’t I have 3.4 million albums sold.
