craig 680 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Sure it's not R.Kelly's fault for the late of DWUW since he's selling better than Gaga. Dunno. Could be he turns off young white females who might have bought DWUW, without bringing many of his own core fanbase (middle aged R&B fans). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AURA 2,890 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 This era is so boring... Free falling everywhere I could care less about the 'free falling everywhere' as long as we'd get the dwuw video, venus as the 3rd single and its videos and outstanding flawless performances, but Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc 4,775 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Sure it's not R.Kelly's fault for the late of DWUW since he's selling better than Gaga. Of course he is his album got released like a month ago And guys, signles sell albums. The more singles, the better for her future career and 'receipts' - not just for ATRLers but also for things such as X Factor trailers, articles, etc. It doesn't really matter if they're not making profit. More sales is always better. Marry the Night helped the album sell really well Q1 2012, eventhough it flopped. If Gaga simply makes this era a complete era with 5 singles, all with music videos, 3 months long eras, radio exposure, promotion and such, the album will keep selling. What I've found in the past is that single:album sales = usually 5:1 WW. Imagine: Gaga actually does release Gypsy as the third single, it sells 3M WW. GUY as fourth single, sells 2M WW. ARTPOP as fifth single, sells 3M WW. Venus as sixth and last single, sells 2M WW. If what I'm saying is actually true (it depends on market though; in South Korea and Anglophone markets singles sales are much higher while in European and Latin American markets album sales are higher than single sales), it would mean that she could end up with a good 4M WW by the end of the era. That's still a high amount of sales. And perhaps with a re-release with another 2-3 singles (and a smash hit?) she could end the era with 6-7M WW, making it as successful as Teenage Dream. #spreadonlinepositivity I'm trying to be realistic by the way, selling 2M in 2014 and 2M in 2015 isn't that extremely hard I believe. That'd be selling 40k a week for 2 years long, or 60k for 50 weeks and 20k for 50 weeks. Hell, if the US sales stay around 10k, Japanese sales around 5k, UK sales around 3k, Canadian around 2k, she already has 30k a week on lock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarriorPrince 1 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 R. Kelly is selling better than ARTPOP. LOL. I can't. Miley and Katy still stay in the top10, this is a serious mess. R.Kelly's album was released way after ARTPOP. Idk what's so surprising. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mills 446 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 The only way to revive the album sales of ARTPOP is for the third single to be a decent hit, a single that could at least peak within the top 10 of the HOT 100 chart and actually stay there for more than a month. Otherwise, I don't know what else could push ARTPOP to platinum within this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
