24k magic isn't doing too bad but after Uptown Funk, and the 1-2 punch he delivered with LOOH and WIWYM, it is clear that his power has waned. Time for him to hit up Tony and see if he can pull of what Godga did. I think he can. Only current people that are absolutely ****ed if they flop are Katy and Taylor.
Lady Gaga never would have outdone Rihanna's second week (the real, actual measure of how many copies she sold first week, not a stan war'd meme) if she had released an album in January with absolutely no promotion.
