21 21 RIHANNA DEF JAM/IDJ 24,573 +24%
RATED R Is there any reason for this increasing?
It was advertised on iTunes main page all week for a sale price of $7.99 in addition to her celebrity playlist podcast. That, along with the Oprah performance/Haiti relief show, made the difference.
Corinne Bailey Rae did a lot better than I expected!
I thought she was going to flop massively! (of course, her numbers are fairly mediocre, but at least she charted in the top ten)
^regardless it's way too low !!
btw we say it's expected to sell 75k it means that's what people and critics expect it to sell right ? It's not what it's on pace to sell after less than 1 day of sales right ??
@ 15k being from itunes lol. RCA really needs to ship some copies! It's really hurting her sales
I don't think physical sales are hurting her. in the first week when shops were well stocked surely then she did 76% digital which shows she's really a digital seller. I mean people chose to get it digitally rather than physically then, I think they're doing the same now.

I think REBIRTH will surpass all expectations...
After 6 hours of release (yesterday) its been 1st on itunes ahead of Lady Andelum and Hope for Haiti (which both have been selling over 125K min) and thats without counting the other versions of the album (4) and store sales !!!
i still have hope it will sell at least 200K first week !!
Is there any reason for this increasing?
Happy that Hope For Haiti held up and Michael Jackson, Rihanna and Carrie increased 
I thought since Whadya Want From Me was doing good, his sales would stabilize...
