    Believe me my dude i know when it comes to the Dips i cant really argue about album sales cuz that wasnt neva their strong point forreal i think they prob sold more mixtapes then most ? sold real cds. But thats why i said if you take X out the equation then them ? about even.

    On some real ? if we rocking off sales then you might as well say G-unit had a bigger movement cuz they definitly sold more then both of them and we know that ? would be false. You got to also facter in that when RR was hot that was at the height of cd sales. When the Dipset movement was at full blast cd sales were on the decline

    Gunit was a lil bigger than RR at the very aleast around the same level............Sales is how u measure the Group, not anything else like mixtapes or wat not........if people like u, on a broad basis, they we buy ur music and support u............if not?? than they wont buy ur material

    Depending on who your aiming your music towards. When your making hood music hood ? gonna buy it when we would be sitting on the block when the cd man came around you know who ? brought the most? Dipset. Aint know block hugger gonna get his ass up on tuesdays and catch a hack (illegal cab) just to buy a cd you gonna wait till the 4 for 20 bootleg ? to come. Atleast those was always my experiences

    Ruff Ryders hands down vol 1 is a classic and vol 2 is very solid album, dipset had their moments but nothing like double R DMX sold over 20+ millions alone....so the arguement will not be about sales lol

    SMH @ some of you who think ? has better spitters than RR. And no "TAKE x OUT OF THE CONVO AND THEN" talk cause if it's like that take Cam out of Dipset and then what do you have? A crew of followers. Everyone in that crew sounds like Cam'Ron. No originality.

    If it's the bold, then it's gotta be DipSet... they tore the scene up as soon as they got with the Roc, their beats were ridiculous

    Why does everyone keep saying if you take so and so out, then its different.... Thats like taking Jordan out of the mix when referring to the 6 Bull Championships during his era....

    DMX single handedly was bigger than the cumulative of Dipset, and Dipset was an offbrand of RocaFella anyways... Dipset, and Street Property both benefited from that ? .

    Ruff had a better squad of spitters.... Dmx, Jada, Styles, Sheek, Eve.... even Cass, and Dragon at the time were dope... and Swizz is one of the biggest producer's of his time.

    Dipset were popular, but never did crazy numbers... and all rocked the same styles of beats and bars, which seemed to hurt them in the long run.

    Dipset did have a pretty big following... a lot of my friends consier the Diplomatic Immunity joints classic... Personal preference, I gotta ride wit RR.

    DipSet was never as big In the NYC as RR was..............whoever is saying that is lying to themselves............Back in the Day u was Either ? with the Roc or RR when they was poppin..............DipSet was more underground, actually more of a harlem thing, they was hot for a minute but only becasue of Cam, ? wanted dude to Comin back............
