This is very interesting, especially since Rihanna's new album sold 238,000 copies in it's first week of release.
Maybe people are tired of Alicia going around like she's the best thing to hit music since Michael Jackson.
Maybe they've realized that Alicia has a few good songs on her albums, but overall, they aren't all that since the first one.
Maybe they're pissed that she stole that woman's husband, married him and had a baby with him.
Either way, there's a reason Alicia Key's isn't gettin' bigger and better - forget about deafer!
Alicias‘ latest studio album ‘Girl On Fire’ has been backed by a gurantuan promotional campaign; one which has taken the Grammy winner to many a stage globally.
Naturally, then, all eyes are on how the LP fares in the singer’s biggest market – the US. And now, with the help of Hits Daily Double, we’re able to provide a clearer picture of how the album is selling on home soil.
According to the ever-reliable HDD, ‘Fire’ is set to blaze straight to the top of the Billboard 200 next week with sales
of…150,000 – 175,000
While commendable given the current sales climate, the numbers are a marked decrease from the 417,000 copies Keys’ last album ‘The Element Of Freedom’ opened with in 2009. In fact, should the project open with sales in the said region, it would serve as the 31 year old’s lowest selling debut (for a traditional release) – ever. For, even her first effort ‘Songs In A Minor’ premiered with sales of 236,000 in 2001.
Hell, that single sucks. It sounds like the other crap she has put out.
ReplyDeleteI HATE "Girl on Fire." It SUCKS. It's too loud. And, I just feel Alicia is always TRYING to be deep as opposed to just BEING deep.
ReplyDeleteAnd, I'm still mad at her for taking that lady's husband and acting all innocent and high and might about it, but if her music was GOOD, I could overlook that.
That song sucks monkey balls and she sounds terrible singing it!! And all the remixes in the world will not make me like that song! I wish they would stop trying to force it down our throats!!
ReplyDeleteGod don't Bless no mess! She "put asunder" somebody's marriage
ReplyDelete& she needs to apologize to God, Mashonda & the world for acting like it was no big deal.
If she don't, come judgement day she could end up a "Girl on Fire".
She dogged her manager who stood by her and stole someone's husband. ain't checking for her...never had...never will.
ReplyDeleteYea Alicia Keyes music has always sucked to me. Example: Girl On Fire
