ConGraTuLaTions KeyShia!

322,000 Copies $OLD!
I predicted Keyshia would push 250,000 Units of her Third, Studio LP. However, with her built in Fan Base, stemming from the Ultra Success of her first, two, studio compilations, alongside her Number One Rated, BET Reality Series, Keyshia has Trumpeted Industry Expectations.
Selling an estimated 40,000 MORE UNITS than her 2007 LP, Just Like You, Keyshia Cole claims the Number Two Spot on Billboards Top 200 Album Charts; to be released Publicly, Tomorrow; a la, Xmas Day.
My FAVORITE Tracks from Keyshia's New Album, A DIFFERENT ME, still include, BRAND NEW, OH OH YEA YEA, YOU COMPLETE ME, MAKE ME OVER and WHERE THIS LOVE COULD END UP.
BRITNEY has sold an additional 196,000 Copies of Circus bringing her 3 week Sales Total to 905,000 Units Pushed in the United States, as BeYonce has sold an additional 195,000 Copies of I AM...SASHA FIERCE.
Poor Brandy. She doesnt even RANK this Week. In Our Hearts, we KNEW it was going to be a MAJOR FLOP!
...and as BIG of a Fan as I am of Christina Aguilera's, she NEED NOT EVEN BOTHER releasing that Futuristic Nonsense she's been Reporting. CIARA and KERI HILSON Need NOT Bother either.
Mainstream, Im ONLY anticipating JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE'S 3rd, Solo LP in 2009.

Britney PREMIERES at Number ONE/ALBUM $ales: [BeYonce-Kanye-Brandy & KeyShia Cole]

505,000 Units $OLD!
I am extremely HAPPY and PROUD to announce that Britney Spears reigns SUPREME on the Billboard 200; as her Sixth, Studio LP, CIRCUS, will PREMIERE in the Number One Spot Tomorrow.
Britney has sold an ASTONISHING 505,000 Copies of the Highly Anticipated project, during a period in time where Beyonce, nor Kanye were able to crack that Half-a-Million barrier.
This accomplishment makes Britney Spears the ONLY artist in Nielsen SoundScan History to have FOUR albums debut with units sold at 500,000 copies or More in its FIRST week.

Accordingly, Britney scores her FIRST Top 10 DEBUT as the album's title-track, CIRCUS, premiere's in the number THREE position. The CIRCUS single is also the Number One track amongst HOT DIGITAL Songs; garnering a wopping 212,000 downloads.

This is the FIRST time in Britney's recording history that she simulataneously has TWO tracks in the TOP 10 Charts of The Billboard 100.

This Week, BEYONCE has sold an additional 153,000 Copies of her, 'I AM SASHA FIERCE' LP. Placing in the Number THREE position of the Billboard 200, this brings BeYonce's three week Sales total to 885,000 Copies SOLD here in the United States.

KANYE WEST reigns in the Number FOUR position of the Billboard 200. Kanye has sold an additional 142,000 Copies of his '808 & HEARTBREAKS' LP; bringing his two week total to 592,000 Copies SOLD here in the United States.
Now...We AWAIT...First Week Sales Numbers from BRANDY and KEYSHIA COLE. Everyone is telling Me that Brandy's album is SIN.Sational. As a Long-Term Fan, I have not been AMAZED by the few tracks that I have heard. HOWEVER, as MANY of you, along with Syrai, has employed me to take a LONG, Uninterrupted Listen, I WILL give her 'HUMAN' project, the TIME and ATTENTION that it truly DESERVES.
I PREDICT that BRANDY will push 100,000 Units in her first week, as KEYSHIA COLE is sure to push 250,000 Units during her most promising, Xmas Shopping Week release.
Keyshia's benefit is that she has a solidified, built-in, Fan Base. Im LOVING this Competition.

Album $ales On A Major DECLINE

450,000 Copies Sold.
People really are NOT purchasing Albums these days, the ways in which they Use To. Piracy, Burners and Download Sites Damaged Album Sales back in 2001. However, Now-A-Days, it seems that Sales are DEAD.

If BeYonce and Kanye arent able to Crack the 500,000 first week Sales week, I FEAR for Brandy, Britney and Keyshia Cole within the coming weeks.


Kanye West's fourth, Studio LP, 808&HeartBreaks, has managed to take the TOP SLOT of Billboards 200. HOWEVER, his first week sales are even More Disappointing than those of BeYonce's 482,000 Unit Push.
Her sales have decreased by 47%, as she ranks in the Fourth Tier of Billboards Mainstream, pushing another 257,000 copies of, 'I AM...Sasha Fierce'.

To date, Beyonce's 3rd, Solo, LP has sold 739,000 copies here in The United States.

KANYE WEST FIRST WEEK UNIT SALES...

2004- College DropOut: 441,000
2005- Late Registration: 860,000
2007- Graduation: 957,000
2008- 808 & HeartBreaks: 450,000

The 'OFFICIAL' BeYonce' Track Listing/Tour UpDate

IN STYLE Magazine
November 2008
It has JUST been ANNOUNCED that BeYonce will embark upon a 110 Show, WorlWide Tour, BEGINNING in April 2009. Solange will join BeYonce on the road, as Fans will be 'Treated' to an Intimate, After-Party/Showcase of Solange performing material from her latest, Studio LP.

Hello

Scared of Lonely
Why Dont You Love Me
Beyonces POP Radio Single, IF I WERE A BOY, will PREMIERE on BillBoards Top Singles Chart in the #100 Position. Looking at this week's Hot 100 might make you wonder if that 100-1 jump is going to happen next week. Debuting in the anchor slot is a new Beyonce single, "If I Were a Boy" (Music World/Columbia). But don't look for a new record to be set when you read the next edition of Chart Beat. "If I Were a Boy" is charting based on early airplay - that's the same way Spears' "Womanizer" entered at No. 96 last week. The difference is that a digital single of "If I Were a Boy" wasn't released this week, so there isn't going to be an injection of sales to fuel a big "Boy" move. Additional airplay will allow the Beyonce track to move up, and an eventual digital release could result in an impressive jump to first place, but not a record-setting move.

Marys First Week Sale$ Numbers Have Been Released

CONGRATULATIONS!...
Mary J. Blige~


DESPITE the fact that Mary's latest Studio LP, the 8th of her Legendary Career,

GROWING PAINS, isnt filled with the Classic Essence of Mary's Style, Aura and Musical Vibe, the Album has Sold a Wopping 640,000 Copies in its First Week of Nielsen SoundScan Reporting.

This isnt a HUGE Shocker, for Mary already has a Solidified Fan Base Who are going to Pretty Much SUPPORT any of her Musical Projects. Accordingly, Mary released the Album One Week BEFORE Christmas; sending Everyone into Target, Best Buy, Circuit City, ITunes, etc. to Purchase the gift as Stocking Stuffers, and Gifts for Co-Workers and Friends. I HAVE the Album, and I am so NOT Impressed. I LOVE Maybe 4 or 5 Tracks on the ENTIRE 16 Track Album, which Include SMOKE(My FAVORITE), HURT AGAIN, FADE AWAY, WHAT LOVE IS, and COME TO ME(Peace); the FINAL Track on the Album.

I am STILL Proud of Mary's Accomplishments. Though THE BREAKTHROUGH Sold a Wopping 730,000 Copies in its First Week, this is STILL an AMAZING feat for Mary J~

...and I STILL Hate the way JUST FINE Sounds. It has NEVER Grown On Me...at all~
