Week 3: Prince hardly dropped at all on Top 200

Lotus slips from no. 9 to just no. 15 this week and should get a nice boost next week due Ellen.

Shocked. I thought it would've dropped further. Clearly Lotus is selling in a pattern "unlike" some of his recent works.

Anyone have the stats on sales for the week?

Even though its not dropping though, its actually selling at a slower pace than 3121 which fared better though fell quicker, showing the state of the industry now and then

Its a very big cause for concern the album has dropped to #15!
If you put Prince-Madonna-MJ all as the top three Artists then I'd
say its pretty much over for Prince and LotusFlower. The Soundtrack
to Twlight, Lady Gaga are higher in sales-charts then Prince. Its
embarrassing actually,....Prince has *lost* his staying power, no matter
what fans, people or charts say. The only person to blame for that, is
Prince himself.

My remark wasn't an insult. Ur remark proves u know nothin about the music industry. Prince already made his money up front. Chart positions r just eye candy now. Prince already is successful in becoming the first artist 2 distribute through Target only and debut at number two.
