The Numbers Game: Monica Is #2

B-Easy March 31, 2010 7

The guy your 12 year old sister loves finally debuts. Justin Bieber‘s My World 2.0 debuts on top of the charts and almost pushes 300,000 units. Did you see his freestyle? Better that Gucci!

Monica released her 6th album with Still Standing. Honestly, I never been a huge Monica fan but I do think she is very talented. That basically means I didn’t listen to this album. But hey, almost 200,000 units in the first week is shitting on a lotta people.

Snoop Dogg dropped his extended play of Malice In Wonderland with More Malice last week. Other than an iTunes bonus track and a Jay-Z remix that leaked a while ago, I honestly had no desire to check this out. I’m sure I will watch the Malice In Wonderland movie though it looks to be a great. And by great I mean terrible.

    Is that Monica album good?! Did anyone listen to it?

  • Chew

    Justin Bieber has a swagger coach. Yeah, enough said.

    • Chew

      The freestyle wasn’t bad, but it seemed rehearsed for the first few bars, then he just go lost.

  • P-Body

    That was pretty pointless for Snoop to drop that More Malice.

    Sade is still going strong and I see Monica is selling decent copies. I never been a fan of her but I did like some of her joints back in the day. This album have a few decent joints but I’m not a big R&B person especially nowadays with it all sounding the same.

    Any Badu predictions? I say 240,000

    As for 40 I say combined 40,000

    • C.J-Gibbs

      I think Badu will do around 250k, but usher will top the charts wit 300-350k

        About 200k for Badu & 300k for Usher. If Usher does those numbers, it’s be a win though. Badu might surprise everyone and outsell Usher; she’s getting a lotta press.
