man, that album should sell so much more since it is one of the
best things to have been released so far this year.

it's certainly in my top 5 releases for 2005. has paul pulled a
single from it already?

i've heard Jenny Wren on the radio several times now.

Franz Ferdinand 75k-80k 7.2k 952k

Melissa Etheridge 60k-70k 91k 345k

Twista is only doin 1/3 the first week it did with the last release does that mean we are seein begining to end of hiphop
[Edited 10/5/05 11:26am]

asg said:

Nope, unfortunately, just the beginning of the end of Twista, who couldn't go aluminum when he started back in the early 90's.

There is one hip-hop artist, Common, in the top 100. But there are 11 other hip-pop artists in the top 100.

When Fitty, the Black Eyed Peas, and 'Ye's sales start to dip, THEN we can talk.

As for myself, pass me the DangerDoom album as I wait for hip-hop to die so it can live again.
