10 Musicians Who Need Publicity Stunts To Sell Records

Kendrick Lamar is such a refreshing artist for one main reason: he lets his music speak for itself. Rarely is he in the middle of drama and slore-y activities to promote his music. Other artists aren’t so lucky. These celebrities rely solely on attention sloring to get attention and it’s wearing thin on us. [bossip_ad_a]

Lupe Fiasco – He goes on wild, stupid Twitter rants every time he has an album coming…he even had a protest for Lazers. [bossip_ad_a]

Joe Budden – Wonder when Joe Budden is going to drop another album? He’s going to go in on whatever ex he upset. [bossip_ad_a]

50 Cent – Whenever Fiddy drops an album, he starts a big feud with a rapper that will only lead to more attention and bad press. Naturally. [bossip_ad_a]

Kid Cudi – More rants, threats of retirement and who knows what else. [bossip_ad_a]

Wale – When Wale drops an album, he goes on a sad sack Twitter rant about how nobody understands him. [bossip_ad_a]

Miley Cyrus – Clearly. [bossip_ad_a]

Gucci Mane – His incredible tweets are all part of his way of dropping a new album…or something. [bossip_ad_a]

Keyshia Cole – Another one who can’t stay off the Twitter attention-sloring to promote an album. [bossip_ad_a]

Kanye West – While he doesn’t JUST slore to promote his album, he definitely does things to grab attention for his sales. [bossip_ad_a]
