Music sales are in a slump, its a bad time of the year for albums....always is but its worse than ususal...fourth quarter will see a rise building to christmas, but sales will still be down...
Idlewild is weak. The singles are weak. The movie backing it is weak. Their whole effort has been a failure. That should tell them something right there they fucked up bad. Don't alienate the people that got you to the top & come with some goofy shit because we'll alienate your ass right back. I know this is the first Outkast album I refuse to buy, and I went out and copped all of their shit, even the greatest hits album.Better luck next time.

Not because of the sales figures. I was expecting a rap album, and if not that, at least something fresh, and interseting. I feel cheated out of a CD-R now.

It's just on this rare occasion, the sale figures reflected the albums quality.
I'm also kinda surprised Kelis is selling so poorly...even I didn't like the album very much, "Bossy" was a hot-to-death single, so I figured she'd get more than 58K out of that in her first week.
anybody know how the new lyfe jennings album is?
