Chris Brown ‘Graffiti’ Expected To Sell 150k

Chris Brown’s new album Grafitti is expected to sell 150,000 copies, according to a prediction from HitsDoubleDaily.

Brown’s second single ‘Crawl’ is just starting to make it’s way onto radio, and it is more likely to cross over into the Pop arena than his first single.

Brown’s last album sold 295,000 units during it’s first week of sales.

Is this a sign that his fans aren’t as supportive since Brown beat up Rihanna?

Rihanna To Debut Album With Worldwide Online Concert

Rihanna’s highly anticipated album has had an air of mystery surrounding its upcoming release, but as the release date draws closer, efforts to reach the masses have grown immensely.

Rihanna told Inside Nokia Music that she’s admittedly nervous. “It’s not just the 6000 people in the venue, but it’s millions of people across the world watching it all at once.”

“It’s exciting though. It’s a big thing that everyone can see it. There’s no better way to launch an album.”

The event is anticipated to be the world’s largest live streaming launch party. To be able to view the concert and get other updates from Rihanna, fans must sign up www.nokia.com/rihanna.

New Video: Rihanna ‘Wait Your Turn’

Rihanna released her first music video for ‘Wait Your Turn’ off of her upcoming album Rated R. Rihanna’s first single ‘Russian Roulette’ failed to spark any interest with fans and her label quickly released ‘Wait Your Turn’, which seems to be suffering the same fate. There’s so much hype surrounding Rihanna’s latest project, but it seems there’s nothing to back it up.

The video for ‘Wait Your Turn’ is extremely self-indulgent and boring. With such a lackluster song, Rihanna’s self-indulgence is a joke.
