how was this possible? lil wayne has fans, i know that, but even the best artists have had trouble selling half a million copies... madonna, mariah, britney, kanye west, the list goes on. no offense to lil wayne or anything, but what set him so much higher than the other artists. i can't even name a single he had in the past.. why did he sell so much with that one annoying single?
