  8. ronnie coleman Says:

    what the fuck? 74 thousand people payed for a cd by sean kingston? wow

  9. Frank Jumbo Says:

    I’m in the Chi too and although we can be proud of Common Sense, the real victory here is that some quality and timeless music actually won out for a change.

    Too add on to what gorillaunit said it’s not only the IPOD factor but the price of gas tends to take away from CD sales too. At least that’s what I gather from talking to music buyers.

    Congratulations Rasheed!

    Peace
