It's weird how J.Lo started flopping the moment Rih debuted. It's like the music industry collectively decided to stop giving J.Lo the bops and give them to Rih instead

I finally realized why the Navy calls Rihanna's next album #R8.

This is the only Ashanti song I know

It was all about Billboard 200 and Ci won by almost a 90k margin. Escandalo!

Gwen served the weak Wind It Up then had to be saved by Akon while Ciara served a true R&B jam that had no Pop airplay. It was like the Red Wedding and the lambs were the Starks.

Wuuuut is this mess? Soundscan:

Love Angel Music Baby - 3,986,513
Goodies - 2,756,181

The Little Gwensters could have used me.

Really? I think Beyonce had more to do with her flopping.

[Ozzy8923]

Poor Beyoncé.

She was basically a non factor until Umbrella and that was all thanks to Britney taking a hiatus and rejecting the song.

Actually I agree with that. Bey kind of punched every urban girl (J.gLObal was urban at the time) out
But Jlo and Rih are kind of similar, they're both global and beautiful and serve bop after bop, so it's funny how the moment Rih came, J.Lo faded

No, it was for The Evolution and The Sweet Escape that were released in the same day.

That would be an against for Gwen considering LAMB sold more than Goodies yet Ciara had a bigger debut with The Evolution.

OH! That makes more sense then. I gotcha.

For some reason I didn't pick up on the fact that you were referring to the follow-up eras.

They did 4 posters for a trailer...

Amazing Amy is my only shot against evil Amy this year, lemme pray...

I'm so afraid of Gwen's next era. The struggle to sell 240k in 2006 after LAMB and now it's been awhile and she flopped so bad with No Doubt...

You know what

[MrPeanut]

"Hollaback Girl" was a bigger hit than any of the "Goodies" era singles (and was the first digital single to sell 1m+).

"The Sweet Escape" was a bigger hit than any of the "Evolution" era singles as well -- nevermind WW. They tried that!
