Why hasn’t jive dropped Chris Brown yet? I guess they still have faith

Deuces was #1 on the R&B Chart for 9 weeks and reached the Top 50 on Pop. Yeah 3x is currently blowing up all over the place and is already one of the Top 20 most played songs in the country. It remains to be seen how well his album will do but to believe he's really struggling is a misunderstanding. Graffiti was able to do over 100k the first week when he was still being blacklisted. I'm sure he'll be able to post even stronger numbers next to around since things have calmed down and he has radio support this time.

I keep up with the billboard too and he is not having a comeback like people think maybe a 106 & park comeback but far from what his career was. Deuces was the one that did pretty good I don’t see Yeah blowing up unless the top 100 this week is saying otherwise. Graffiti was a flop and maybe he will come back and not to put R.kelly in this but his scandal was way worse than chris and he still has a career, Chris songs wasn't good enough.

I had difficulty finding a copy of the new R. Kelly album at my local Best Buy. I managed to locate the only copy in the whole store. Don't get me started on their lame customer service.

Have you ever asked to special order something? They told me to hit up Amazon.

Nope I order from Barnes & Noble most of the time .

Yeah 3x has a total audience of 51.906 and gained + 1.124 impressions today alone. It's already outdone Deuces on Pop (BY FAR) and it hasn't even finished it's course yet.

I'm on Mediabase daily he's doing extremely well. It's even in the Top 20 on I-Tunes.

No at all. I'm just trying to make it clear that he isn't suffering as bad as some people believe.

Jive would drop Ciara before they drop Chris.

Chris is showing far more staying power than some of his label mates...

Aint that a bitch.

so i guess im the only one who thinks that michael album is garbage and a couple of those songs i heard is clearly not him.

Diddy-Dirty Money's album defied sales forecasts by selling 101K copies, according to data released by Soundscan. Good for them because the low numbers were going to be embarrassing.

where did u got those numbers ?

Do you have a link ?

I'm hoping for too much, but maybe it will climb a little if not stay in the top 5 if people are buying 'Michael' as Christmas presents, and possibly for the younger generation since a Billboard article mentioned the album was reaching younger audiences, and through gift cards.

I've also come across people who are michael fans that have no clue this album is out and now they want it cause I've informed them.

Sure. The article with the final numbers is posted here

Diddy always makes sure the first week looks nice, but it sharply drops after that, hehe
