Yeah and apparently he's been tweeting that too, and he also said in that article that he doesn't care about numbers as long as people listen to his music

I mean which artist wouldn't want their album to open with 1mil+, its a big achievement.

But he's predicted to be in the 200K range according to HDD, so hopefully he can cross 200K+

[WheresJay]

No more Beautiful People?

Can they stick to their ****?

I'm not really a fan of these dual single releases every time. I want him to have crossover smashes like he did in the good ole days.

Beautiful People is the international single
I'm actually glad they are not releasing it in the US because it won't smash

I'm not a big fan either, I honestly think She Ain't You could be a crossover hit

It's possible, and we'll see what happens

It's gonna be a close battle, but honestly anything over 200K+ is a great comeback for Chris

about 102K and debuted at #7, and then was back in December 09

[NE.]

I really hope he's not doing dual singles either. What is it with artists releasing singles to Urban AND Pop. Can we please go back the days where they create songs that cater to BOTH formats?

Reading is fundamental everyone.

Hitting stores next Tuesday (3/22) are a couple of albums which should do up to 200k, according to pundits, in Jive/ZLG’s Chris Brown and Arista/RMG's Jennifer Hudson, as well as RCA/RMG's The Strokes.

"Up to" means less than or equal to.
Not above. Chris Brown will NOT do anything over 200K. I do not understand why HDD would post up such an early prediction knowing that his fans would get built up with delusion.

[NE.]

His highest-selling album unfortunately didn't even crack 300K opening week.

[chi-town_kidd]

HDD is just throwing a prediction out there, & it WILL sell 200k+.

[Wonda]

However, I would like to add, that I do think FAME could sell surprisingly well overseas and internationally. especially seeing his success with Yeah 3x in other countries.
I see sales close to 300K opening week worldwide.

If Graffiti was able to sell that 102K with just a moderate single hit & no promo & even in bad background, F.A.M.E. would at least do double than that so I expect 200k-300k !

I said in the range of 200K, and "up to" doesn't mean 200K max, they don't even have first day sales, these are just random predictions based on singles released and reception thus far.

There has been no delusion, I personally said anything over 200K+ is a great comeback for him considering where he's coming from
