Maino recently gave his opinion on his first album's sales and why he thinks artists like Jay-Z and T.I. did not get their status from their first albums. "If it all ended today, I exceeded all expectations put on my life," Maino wrote on his blog. "For me to have lived the way I lived and make a career out of it to get to the point to be able to put out an album. It's hard just to get to that point. That's a success story in itself."
Maino went on to compare himself to other rappers saying they didn't get their status from their debut album. "We living in a time when records are not selling like they used. First and foremost, everybody looks at Jay Z, TI and Lil Wayne and say that's what they want. Everyone has to understand that Jay Z didn't blow up off his first album..he wasn't the Jay Z as we know him....neither was TI. All these people, put they work in...they dropped albums and they kept going and going and built they fanbase that way. Look at 2pac...look at most successful artists. What you don't get on the first one..you keep growing, build your core and keep going. It's a marathon, not a sprint."
