The Number One Album is Still Not Enough


Congrats to Chrisette Michele for having the #1 album in America! Chrisette’s Epiphany sold 83,000 copies during the week ending on May 10. The problem is, her solid 83,000 performance would make the WORST number one debut in SoundScan history! LOL the internet is king. What artist really need to do is put their album on their website [or Imeem.com] for a couple of week before the release date so that fans can get a preview of it before they decide to buy. It sooo worked for Kanye who, last year, released just about every [unmastered] track from 808's before the album came out. By the way, Ciara’s Fantasy Ride came in third with 81200 copies sold.
