Its almost as if in the midst of all the good news some Beyonce fans have started seeing anything that may seem negative or against what they have to say as been "hate" . Weird ... |
But you are a lowkey hater.

I know right! Why are they so bothered!? 
Let's wait and see. No one knows the future any more than anyone else.

The only thing I don't understand why you spend so much time talking about Beyoncé rather than your fave, Adele

That doesn't change the fact that this could be a different situation now. Anything can happen. No one was expecting her to release an album and have such a reception. No one is saying January sales can't be under 100k though. But just to automatically write it off and expect the sales to be below 100k just because, is ridiculous. Wait and see what happens. No one knows the future.

I think she'll do anywhere between 70k and 100k for the first week of january and then fall a bit in sales around the 40-50k mark. Hopefully she can stay consistent around that mark until the Grammy boost.

Well I would hope to be talking about Beyonce in the chart section of the site considering she has an album out that's selling great and no.1 on BB200. It would be very off-topic of me to talk about something else, don't you think?
Anyway I talk quite a lot about Adele on this site(amongst others) so I figure I do enough and last I checked anyone can post their opinion on charts, so yeah ....

Oh but they do. A lot of people don't pick up on the passive-aggressive posts tho

Anyway, we'll see how the Jan. sales go when the time comes.

You have to bear in mind that bey has not done any significant promo for this album and it's fairly new unlike these other examples you listed.You can't predict the future based on the past precedents without taking into account the perculiar nature of this album's release.

January is only in 4 days, you'll figure it out then. The last pages are difficult to read.

OK!!! It's getting embarrassing.

[quote]Another release that's selling well is Justin Bieber's new collection, "Journals," which bowed on Monday, Dec. 23. The 15-song set contains 10 previously released tunes (made available as part of his weekly Music Mondays series) and five new cuts. The project -- exclusively sold through the iTunes Store -- could sell over 100,000. However, Billboard has been informed that iTunes will not be reporting sales for the set to Nielsen SoundScan, therefore it will not appear on Billboard’s charts.[/quoute]
He is such a coward lol, can't accept it flopped.

Well it goes both ways. You can't predict the future based on peculiar nature of this album's release without taking into account the the past precedents.
And on ATRL promo effect is significantly overrated. Release was so highly covered by media so even many of my friends who don't follow R&B album releases at all are aware of her album. All she needs now to sell is radio support not promo on talk shows etc.

So she doesn't need a live performance?ok whatever floats your boat.As for me I'll rather wait for things to take it's natural course than base my prediction on past events without taken into consideration the different factors at play .
