This is album is really good and I love it! I think I do see why people are saying that this album isn't good when in terms she doesn't sing like she did on American Idol to win it. I on the otherhand, love the album!

Alicia and Josh Groban Battle It Out for Next Week’s #1, Jordin Sparks, Keith Urban Top Debuts
November 21, 2007
Pass the drumstick as J Records’ Alicia Keys and Reprise’s Josh Groban fight it out for the gravy.
Keys’ chart-topping As I Am and Groban’s Noel will battle it out for #1 on next week’s HITS album chart, with both in the 300-350k range heading into what retailers hope will be a profitable Black Friday.
Helping boost Groban's chances was an appearance on yesterday’s Oprah, where he sang two songs from the disc.
Jostling for top debut will be Jive/ZLG’s Idol-winning Jordin Sparks (125k-150k) and Capitol’s Mr. Kidman, unh, Keith Urban, with a greatest hits collection (125k).
Interscope’s OneRepublic, the L.A.-by-way-of-Colorado group fronted by hit songwriter Ryan Tedder, has stormed the charts thanks to Timbaland’s remix of their #1 smash, “Apologize,” and is looking at a first-week total of 70k, followed by Mercy Me, a group being boosted by a large Christian bookstore number, which could sell between 60-70k for their INO Records release, All That Is Within Me. The Grammy-nominated band from Texas has five previous albums, one of which has gone double-platinum and three others gold.
RBD, the co-ed Mexican pop group which gained fame from starring in the hit Televisa telenovela Rebelde, has sold over 10 million albums worldwide in a little over three years. Their latest for EMI, Empezar Desde Zero (Starting from Zero), looks like it could do between 35-40k, with a big Puerto Rican number.
Roc-A-Fella/IDJ Philly rapper Freeway is looking at 35k for his sophomore album, Free At Last, the long-awaited follow-up to his 2003 debut, Philadelphia Freeway.
Universal Republic is releasing Amy Winehouse’s U.K. debut, Frank, for the first time in the States, with early reports indicating it could do around 25k.
Overall, the market was up 18% vs last week, down 6% vs. same week last year and now down 14.3% year-to-date.
Are you finished with the candied yams and cranberry sauce yet?

Worst thing is it's Black Friday so she might debut really low, while other albums rise. :-/

^I mean like if it was a normal week it could've debuted top 3 w/o questions, but since it's BF, other albums can move up above her 125-150k and she could only somewhere #6-#10.
Normal week would've been worst sales though yes.

Well, at least "Tattoo" is getting more popular. But the whole album depends on "No Air". Im pretty sure it will do great, so, let's expect longevity...

But, I understand that they do not want Jordin to be overshadowed by Chris Brown. They want the focus on Jordin.

I think he means like Chris is really low and Jordin/the beat of the song overlays him and it kind of does.

Yes, tons of times, but Jordin mostly takes over (it's her song...)
