RISE OF THE HOUSE OF USHER
LaFace/JLG Superstar Will Top Charts with 330-350k, Erykah Badu to Hit 110-120k
March 31, 2010
Usher proves you can’t have too many hits.
With three smash singles at Urban radio, “There Goes My Baby,” “Lil’ Freak” and “Hey Daddy (Daddy’s Home),” the LaFace/JLG R&B star’s Raymond v Raymond album will debut at #1 on next week’s HITS sales chart, sporting a total now pegged at 330-350k, which may even climb higher on anticipation of a busy Easter weekend at retail.
That’s based on one-day sales reports from those retailers who haven’t either joined the Tea Party or been cast in Sarah Palin’s Alaska reality series.
Usher scored a combined, weekly audience of 44.6 million at Urban radio for all three singles, along with more than 1.5 million downloads and ringtones even before the album's release yesterday.
Universal Motown’s Erykah Badu will be the next-highest newcomer, with 110-120k in sales for her new album, New Amerykah Part Two (Return of the Ankh), fueled by the controversial “nude” video for the first single, “Window Seat.” The clip, inspired by Matt and Kim’s Times Square disrobing, “Lessons Learned,” takes place by the grassy knoll in her hometown Dallas’ Dealey Plaza at the site of the JFK assassination.
Arista Nashville’s Alan Jackson is back with Freight Train, on track for 60-70k in first-week sales.
Former Wu members Meth + Ghost + Rae return with Wu-Massacre for Def Jam/IDJ, which appears to be in the 40-50k range. The album features Method Man, Ghostface Killah and Raekwon teaming up for the first time since Wu-Tang Clan.
The market was up 7% vs. last week, down 11% vs. same week last year and still down 8% year to date. You may now return, like us, to contemplating how we ever lived without our BlackBerries.

Teen dream Justin Bieber this week becomes the youngest male solo artist to land a #1 album since Stevie Wonder scored in August 1963, at age 13, with Little Stevie Wonder: The 12 Year Old Genius. (Wonder was 12 when he recorded the album, 13 when it was released.) Bieber, who turned 16 on March 14, scores with My World 2.0.
Here's the low-down on this week's top 10 albums.
1. Justin Bieber, My World 2.0, 283,000. This new entry is Bieber's second release to reach the top 10. Nearly 44,000 copies were sold digitally, making it the week's #1 Digital Album. Seven songs from the album are listed on Hot Digital Songs, topped by "Baby" (featuring Ludacris), which jumps from #6 to #4.
2. Monica, Still Standing, 184,000. This new entry is Monica's fourth top 10 album in a row. Of her five albums, only 2003's chart-topping After The Storm has climbed higher. Two songs from the album are listed on Hot Digital Songs, topped by "Still Standing" (featuring Ludacris), which debuts at #116.
3. Various Artists, NOW 33, 135,000. This new entry is the 30th consecutive regular NOW installment to debut in the top five. It's off to a faster start than NOW 32, which debuted at #5 in November with first-week sales of 102,000. The new album features Ke$ha's "TiK ToK" and Owl City's "Fireflies."
4. Lady Antebellum, Need You Now, 78,000. The album slips from #1 to #4 in its ninth week. Two songs from the album are listed on Hot Digital Songs, topped by "Need You Now," which inches up from #8 to #7.
5. Justin Bieber, My World, 50,000. The EP jumps from #10 to #5 in its 19th week. This is its ninth week in the top 10. Two songs from the EP are listed on Hot Digital Songs, topped by "One Time," which jumps from #79 to #75.
6. She And Him, Volume Two, 47,000. This new entry is the duo's first top 10 album. Nearly half of these copies (23,000) were sold digitally. Volume One has sold 88,000 digital copies, out of 200,000 total copies.
7. Ludacris, Battle Of The Sexes, 45,000. The former #1 album slips from #3 to #6 in its third week. Two songs from the album are listed on Hot Digital Songs. "How Low" debuts at #18. "My Chick Bad" (featuring Nicki Minaj) dips from #21 to #23.
8. Lady Gaga, The Fame, 41,000. The album drops from #5 to #8 in its 74th week. This is its 40th week in the top 10. Seven songs from the expanded version of the album are listed on Hot Digital Songs, topped by "Telephone" (featuring Beyonce), which dips from #4 to #6.
9. Marvin Sapp, Here I Am, 39,000. The gospel album drops from #2 to #9 in its second week. The album has sold a healthy 106,000 copies in its first two weeks.
10. The Black Eyed Peas, The E.N.D., 34,000. The former #1 album dips from #8 to #10 in its 42nd week. This is its 29th week in the top 10, a new record for the Peas. Monkey Business had 28 weeks in the top 10. Four songs from the album are listed on Hot Digital Songs, topped by "Imma Be," which dips from #7 to #8.
Heads Up: Usher's Raymond Vs. Raymond is expected to enter next week's chart at #1, with first-week sales in the 300,000 to 350,000 range. It will be his third album in a row to debut in the top spot. Also due: Erykah Badu's New Amerykah Part Two, Alan Jackson's Freight Train and Meth Ghost and Rae's Wu-Massacre. The latter album is a collaboration by Method Man, Ghostface Killah and Raekwon, performing together for the first time since Wu-Tang Clan.
Shameless Plug: Lady Gaga's The Fame logs its 40th week in the top 10. That's an unusually long run, but what makes it even more unusual is that the album has yet to reach #1. It peaked at #2 in January. The Fame is one of only 10 albums to log 37 or more weeks in the top 10 without hitting #1 since 1963, when Billboard combined its separate mono and stereo charts into one comprehensive listing. On Friday, I'll have the full list. It may be the only list on which you'll ever find both Iron Butterfly's psychedelic-era smash In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida and TLC's contemporary R&B classic CrazySexyCool. Dig your parents' lava lamp out of the garage and check it out on Friday.

I think Usher is going to sell 400k+. When the predictions were made on Wednesday, he hadn't done Idol yet or any of the other promo he was supposed to do this week. That will help him A LOT! And don't underestimate Easter sales either.
It will be excellent for Usher. HIS opened with 443k. If his new record does 400k or more, it will mean his staying power in the industry hasn't gone down at all (keep in mind the market has gone down from May 2008 when HIS was released, so a 50-75k difference can be expected).
By the way, I bought the album

^ Normally the predictions take into account the promo the artist is going to do, but they did say his sales could go up with Easter.
