"The handoff from Cash Money/Universal Motown's Lil Wayne to Coldplay also represents just the second time in Nielsen SoundScan history that two albums start with sums greater than 700,000 in back-to-back weeks. The last time it happened was May 2000, when Britney Spears' "Oops! ... I Did It Again," followed by Eminem's "The Marshall Mathers LP" each broke the million milestone in successive frames, the former with 1.8 million, and Spears' with 1.3 million."

Again, DK's only hope is Bad Girl. If that doesn't do anything, then they are all doomed.

maybe if theres another season of MTB they're album will magically come back

They should release Sucka for Love after this!

Ironic. Well, you opened your mouth again and was wrong yet again. This is as hilarious as when "4 Minutes" was going to barely go top 20 on radio and your other infamous predictions.

Yup. Some Hearts sales might be dropping but I think "Carnival Ride" will hold on there for at least 1 more year. Some Hearts got 2 big singles with 4 #1s + hell lots of awards for both singles and album (out of her crazy bunches of awards, only 2 are from Carnival Ride, and that is damn little compared to "Some Hearts") and some controversy so .... but hope that it can maintain the rates of selling until 7 mil mark (cause the album has already being shipped 7 mil).

More #1s and upcoming awards will help Carrie and "Carnival Ride". I don't think it can match the figure with "Some Hearts" but I hope it can reach at least 4xPlatinum.

Go Carrie. Just A Dream will be your next #1, i swear!

Hit Single

Flop Album

Sorry Jesse :P

Not that bad....for a first hit single in like um let's say 4 years?

I have a question, can someone look up his last CD sales? I want to know how well RWYWM did without "radio" play. None of his songs from that album peaked in the top 20, so I'm curious to see how badly he did with that album.

Once Jesse released How Do You Sleep and that becomes a smash hit, I'm sure his album sales will slowly keep increasing. It just takes time. At least he's in the top 200 still

I have a feeling this album will be like Rihanna, hit singles, but bad album sales...=\

[LOL!]

Are you being serious? Rihanna has sold 1.3 mil, I can't see Jesse even going gold

You're right. There is a difference!

Rihanna releases an album every year with hit singles on every one...
Rihanna pays radio stations to play her songs 24/7 so people want more...
Hollywood Records won't let Jesse release more than three singles, while Rihanna's label will allow her to release her whole CD if she wanted too
Rihanna's name is more established than Jesses.

Though now people are starting to know his name now. I heard many story's on the radio that people are calling being like "THATTTTTTTTT IZZZZZ JESSE MCCARTNEY OMGZZZZ ZomzGAZZZZZZ "

People forgot about Jesse because his past album went unnoticed so all they remember from him his is bubble gum pop Beautiful Soul, but with Leavin' people are being shocked since his sound is so R&B/Timboish.

I can't see the future, but if he Hollywood Records allows him to release at least 4 singles which should be (Leavin', How Do You Sleep, It's Over, and Told You So), he should be fine. I'm not to worried. He has other ways of getting income like movies. Alvin and the Chipmunks was a major blockbuster hit for him, so he probably got a lot from that.
