Rock and Soul on 34th street (across the street from Macy's) will start selling the CD today.. Does anyone knows if those cd's sold earlier are counted in the soundscan total for the first week sales ?? Earlier in the thread, I believe lastdecember said that that store and a few others in NYC were going to start selling the CD early and that it WOULD count as a part of first week sales. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

Here's the quote from lastdecember:
lastdecember said: For anyone who doesnt want to wait till the 26th Street date and you are NYC, it will be out Friday the 22nd, in shops like Norms Music, Record Runner, and Rebel Rebel, sometimes they get them Thursday Nite, but almost always on Friday, and NO they arent Bootlegs, they are the real thing, so if you are worrying about it counting towards soundscan, that number is already tracked in their order. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

its HER FAULT.. she didn't market herself.. she didn't promote enough... NOTHING... except those 5 minute interviews on the celebrity shows.. she hasn't done any performances.... no special appearances.. NOTHING big...
It's A Wrap For Janet's New CD. "Discipline" Has Leaked All Over The Internet PLEASE forget for a second that Janet hasn't been doing that much press for her project. Let's also forget that she has yet to find a hit single, and DON'T forget the fact that though her album hits stores next Tuesday the tone seems to be complete non-interest with exception to the "kids." When will she STOP trying to make that comeback? But, even if you managed to forget all that it's going to be hard to forget that Janet's new album "Discipline" is all over THE internet. And don't forget the eight MUSIC tracks that have already leaked earlier this week. That's right people I am here to report that Ms. Jackson's new project in its entirety is on two music BLOG sites as of now. Of course I will not say where they are but my I'm sure big internet music heads know where to find it. I put some clues here in this blog to assist you in your search. I predict that Janet's newest album probably won't even crack the top 10 on the Billboard charts. Got A Hot Tip:thestreetzalwaystalk@gmail.com http://blogs.sohh.com/ya_...for_1.html im still getting the album the first week out... but that is just me.... | |

Janet gets ***1/2/**** and Critic's Choice from People Magazine
After a career slump, Janet Jackson answers any questions about what she's done for us lately with Discipline, her best album since 2001's All For You. Working without producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis for the first time since before Control, the pop diva brings in some new blood-and comes up with some fresher sounds. While still letting Janet be Janet, Discipline puts a spanking new sheen on her mix of clubby dance tracks, candy-coated midtempo confections and sweet and sexy slow jams. Highlights include the bubbly, synth-happy "LUV", "Rollercoaster", an exiting ride with a banging drum loop, and the lushly atmospheric "Can't B Good", on which Ne-Yo, who cowrote this and two other tunes, brings out the Michael in Janet. | |

The cd is out here in NYC, i saw it in a few stores already this morning, and got it from Norms. Do not be disillusioned with the whole "soundscan" thing because mom and pop stores like this dont even report to them, depending on where they get it, one-stops, direct buy outlets etc.. thats what calls the order numbers in to soundscan, Chain stores that violate street dates can have that kind of affect but mom and pop are meaningless to all of that, you guys put too much trust in "soundscan" which is our most accurate system but its still not a 100% science of what people buy, do you honestly think they are going to trust store employees to their "science", not even close, but thats another story.

I'm going to pick up the CD tonight since I'll be around 34th St anyway. I can't wait! Rock and Soul is across the street from Macy's right? I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

I saw it in a store today and i couldn´t belive they would have it so quick. Haven´t bought the album though. The pictures from the booklet are amazing. "When Michael Jackson is just singing and dancing, you just think this is an astonishing talent. And he has had this astounding talent all his life, but we want him to be floored as well. We really don´t like the idea that he could have it all." | |
