He still sold plenty of records since he changed direction and still has a huge following. But that doesn't distract from those people from within the hip hop community hating on him. Those are the people you said only did so because of his acts rather than his music. Becky and Chad buying his records doesn't mean much long term. You're mistaking sales for respect. And yeah, I know which one most people care about but it doesn't change my point.
Look at post Newstead Metallica. As if anything since Trujillo joined is going to compare to their old stuff. Yet they still sell out shows that they don't show up for.
