It's all about the numbers!


For any artist, first week sales are incredibly important. Over the past two weeks there have been some major album releases and we now have a few of the results.

Kris Allen - Kris Allen: 80 000
50 Cent - Before I Self Destruct: 160 000
Leona Lewis - Echo: 67 000
John Mayer - Battle Studies: 285 000

With these results, Mayer managed to top the album charts for the second time in his career.

Next week's predictions
Susan Boyle – I Dreamed A Dream: 600 000
Adam Lambert – For Your Entertainment: 230 000
Lady GaGa – The Fame Monster: 200 000
Rihanna – R-Rated: 180 000
Shakira – She Wolf: 80 000

Who knew Boyle would be an album seller? If she pulls off these numbers, she'll have the biggest first week sales for the entire year! Glambert's antics seemed to have worked in getting him a respectable debut. What albums will you be buying?
