  1. I'm afraid this will flop in the US...

    It doesn't seem to be that popular...

    also Mariah is now going up more again... because they did some more payola now when they saw Madonna released her new single to radio

    Are you serious?

    In case you're unaware, today is the official date for 4MTSTW to be played on all US radio station. :confused:

  2. HITS:

    HITSDAILYDOUBLE: YOUR WEAKEND TOP 10 PREVIEW: Three records on next week’s chart will be in six figures, and all are debuts (no surprise there). Def Jam/IDJ rapper Rick Ross has the inside track for #1 on a projected 175-180k, followed closely by Sony BMG’s Now 27 with 165-170k. Geffen’s Snoop Dogg is a lock for #3, trending toward 120-125k, after which it gets iffy.

    Jack Johnson (Brushfire/Universal Republic) and Alan Jackson (Arista Nashville) are both looking 50-55k-ish, followed by the 45-50k trio of debuting Fat Joe (Virgin), Michael Jackson’s Thriller (Sony/Legacy) and Sara Bareilles (Epic).

    The rest of the Top 10, projecting 35-40k, will likely consist of Janet Jackson (Def Jam/IDJ), Now: The ’80s (SBMG) and Erykah Badu (Universal Motown). (3/14a)

    Top 10?

    1. Rick Ross

    2. Now 27

    3. Snoop Dogg

    4. Jack Johnson / Alan Jackson

    6. Fat Joe / MJ / Sara Bareilles

    9. Floppita / Now: The '80s / Erykah

    Total: 11?!?!

    I wonder if Floppita will drop out of top 10? :1251:

  3. ^Yup.

    HITS:

    ROSS IS BOSS

    IDJ Rapper, Now 27, Snoop Dogg Battle It Out for Top Spot

    March 12, 2008

    South Beach rapper Rick Ross is ready to take his spring break…at the top of the charts.

    The IDJ hip-hop star follows up his hit 2006 debut Port of Miami with Trilla, which appears the odds-on favorite to debut at #1 on next week’s HITS Album sales chart.

    Based on one-day sales reports from those retailers not hightailing to Austin for SxSW, and even some that are, the gangsta hip-hopper looks set for between 165-175k in first-week sales.

    Now 27, the latest edition of the long-running hits compilation series, comes out through John Ingrassia’s SBMG Commercial Music Group, is running just behind Ross with 160-170k, and could challenge for the top spot yet.

    Behind the two leaders is Geffen’s perennial Snoop Dogg, whose new album Ego Trippin’ is a lock for #3 with what appears around 130k in sales.

    Terror Squad/Capitol rap vet Fat Joe’s The Elephant in the Room cannot be ignored. It looks to be in the 50k range, which will be good enough for a Top 10, maybe even a Top 5, bow.

    Sony’s Now ‘80s, a variation on the formula, now looks like it could sell around 40k, which would put it within sniffing distance of the Top 10 these days.

    Concord’s Randy Jackson album, Randy Jackson’s Music Club, Vol. 1, seems to be headed for the 15-20k range, but could go higher with some expected on-air Idol mentions.

    Where's Floppita? :scared:
