OFFICIAL: The rankings are in and Chris Brown album comes in at #7, and not #6 as Hits Daily Double predicted. Chris Brown was able to sell over 100,000 units, and met album projections.
UNOFFICIAL: I don’t know if Graffiti is a flop or not. Compared to his last album that sold 295,000 units in it’s first week; it’s certainly a sharp decline. But take into consideration that he is officially “The Worst Person in the World of 2009″ next to Tiger Woods, sales are not so bad. He was shut-out the awards shows, he wasn’t allowed to perform live to promote the album, many stations boycotted his music, and he had several meltdowns on twitter. I’m actually surprised he made the projection mark of 95,000 – 110,000 units.
Yes, in conventional terms Graffiti was a flop, but once placed in perspective there are at least 100K who remain loyal fans. Only time will tell if this album will continue to move along the charts, but unless he is the loser of a reality show in the UK (Susan Boyle), future sales don’t look promising. Rihanna album sales dropped from #4 to #28 (Ouch). Chris Brown will probably trend the same.

Its a flop! That’s why he went crazy on twitter. Rihanna outsold him and is trending the same like her last album. Rated R was a hit.
This Graffiti crap is a flop!

WHAT…GET REAL…”F” what you heard, his CD is off the chain. You have to be crazy, you cant turn it off even if you wanted to. The first track hits you in the face, the next three are smoothed out, then the fourth track comes right back and has you pumping the music right back up, the track after that is a slick one, just get the music for yourself. Far from a flop, now that the CD is appearing on the shelves in more stores, it will continue to sell. Which I think was another promotional ploy. Keep less on the shelves and once people cant get and start demanding it when they go into the store and see the music on the shelf they get 2 instead of 1. Everything they try to do to keep this young man down somehow works in his favor. Thats why its number 7 and has been for weeks. By the way track 11 will end up in someones movie.
Do the dam thang Breezy, you aint got to be no fan Boo to have your head moving to this joint. Its about the music and he did his dam job.
Keep it coming Chris.

Chris’ cd was the shit. I wasn’t even a fan until this album. Rhianna’s album was some bullshit.
