The first week since Feb, 1994 (when the #1 album - Mariah's "Music Box - sold 91 600) that the #1 album has failed to sell 100k.

Tough times! But also it is a slow time and the fact that Outkast keeps hitting number one proves that. Shit, I figured by now everyone had the album! If you're buying it now, you're probably paying twice as much as those that bought it right away!

Yes, they do.

Outkast has been represented us ATLiens from day one...This set should sell over 10 millon copies...It's still early in the game and some grammies (if they should take em...especially in the major categories} will increase sales of this 2-cd set. And they're still only on their first singles...

Since it is a 2 cd set. The album has just been certified 7x Platinum with 8x Platinum just around the corner. It'll probably hit Diamond by the summer...especially if they own the Grammys this year which I predict they will. Hell..the album may actually sell 10 million by summers end!

BRO915 said:

Yes, but going 10x platinum means they'll have shipped 5 million copies, not 10 (as it's a double disc set).
