Jackson Sales Cool, But He Still Could be King of Pop Chart Next Week
July 22, 2009
Hollywood Records' newest diva could have herself a #1 album next week, though the King of Pop very much remains a factor.
Demi Lovato will have the week's top debut with her Here We Go Again album, but she could well lose out in the race for #1 on the HITS Album chart to Michael Jackson, whose Number Ones is currently seeing increased numbers at several accounts, thanks to a fresh round of physical product from Sony, part of the company's worldwide outlaw of 15.5 million albums. See, the old machine can crank up pretty good if there's a reason to.
19/Jive/JLG's Idol winner Jordin Sparks returns with her sophomore album, which should do betrween 45-50k, which should be good enough for a Top 10 debut.
Veteran Canadian rockers Our Lady Peace, on their own label through WMG's Independent Label Group, is looking at first-week sales between 10-15k
The market was down 7% vs. last week, down 9% vs. same week last year and still down 14% year-to-date.
Can another pop music superstar please drop dead suddenly? Pretty puhleeeze....

No wayyyyyyyyyyyyy, she deserves to sell more.
Better not drop, Battlefield better climb on radios and keep the album sales along with S.O.S.
And why didn't they say what the range of Demi and MJ?
Those predictions for Jordin are horrible! I was honestly expecting around at least 80k
