im surprised at this too, Fergie makes almost the same type of music geared to the same audience and she sells a lot of albums

Here's what Wikipedia says:

Quote
The album has sold 593,481 copies in 13 weeks. In the United Kingdom the album sold 53,000 copies in its first week, debuted at number one, and so far has sold 250,000 copies.

Of course, we all know Wikipedia can be unreliable (as exemplified by the Dipset groupies who edit Cam's sales to make it look like he sold more), so take that as you will.  But yeah, when I was in the U.K., "Umbrella" was fucking huge over there.

Wikipedia says her first album sold 1 million worldwide and gold in teh US and her second one 2.4 million worldwide and platinum in the US, her third has sold 615,000 in the US and 1.96 million worldwide so it looks like this might be her best selling album when its done 8)

Now she's at 600k + ... very average comparing to the others RNB bitches ... her 1st barely went plat , the 2nd 1.3 Million... she got some big hits though that did well in Europe so she's seeing that paper .. anyways it still amazed me (well not in today music industry) how good looking and well surrounded girls with very limited talent can have great carreers ...
