First Week Album Sales For Jim Jones & Keri Hilson


jim_jones_pray_iv_reign-front-large

Keri Hilson’s, “In A Perfect World,” debuts with a decent 94k, while Jim Jones first week sales for, “Pray IV Reign,” are a disappointing 43k. “Pop Champagne,” was hot but I wasn’t feeling the second single. Both artist need to keep promotion up and focus on the long run sales.

  36. napoleon Says:

    Pray for Sales Jim. that’s why dame dash never put out a cd, with roc-a-fella. cause if you can’t/shouldn’t rap you should have sense enough not to want to torture anyone else with it.

    I like 106 & park cause it’s really the only live countdown show left, not what it used to be tho with free & AJ, but just because that pop champagne & nahnahnah garbage are number on the countdown, ahead of good songs, by great artists. GUESS WHAT. that don’t mean it’s nowhere near the top of or even on the Billboard Hot 100. Then again that dumb soulja boy song is like #3 right now over T.I. WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Congrats to Keri Hilson. Hot CD, alltho i’m not feelin turnin me on that much, cause of the feature. Every other song/video released so far has been hot, Energy, return the favor, knocks you down.

    Get’em Keri

  37. ANAHILATOR Says:

    LoL……..Damn three weeks ago I predicted 40,000 or less and no one wanted to put up a wager. dammmmmmmm…… Hey Jimmy whats next? Dancing with the stars? LOL….. And dame said he’s the future……..Hah……Jimmy is done…… As for JUELZ well keep riding Lil WAYNE’S coat tails……… Cause nobody is checking for u neither. The reason I CANT FEEL MY FACE OR SOMETHING HAS A BUZZ IS BECAUSE OF WAYNE….

    Even though I really don’t fUCCS with cam. He is gonna outsell yall. I hope cam don’t let dame try and represent him….. Cam you have to prove to these unloyal cats that you carried them and not the other way around…

    As for keri babe, its your first album. As long as u continue to put out quality music you can build……Beyonce albums is the best album for this year even though it came out last year. pretty girl, halo, etc. are getting crazy burn on the clubs and radios….and everytime I pull up on my car next to a girls car its beyonce music playing….. And even though you had the remix dissing some ladies it catch any attention… BEEF is a played out trajedy that can hurt and upcoming artist. Even Ricky(5-0)ROSS is feeling the crunch…. Good music but the internet spectacle commenced by Fifty cent has been damaging to him…

    Back to Jimmy, KARMA IS A BITCH……….

  38. ANAHILATOR Says:

    Cam need to get jr writer on a major record deal. And jr writer you need to stop acting tough let your music talk for it self. You are good. as for the rest of them no way its a waste of money….. Jr writer can be your new prodigee…. when rebuilding and empire you keep the best and get rid of the baggage that can be costly just having around…. bring in new talent and use the existing talent…

  39. naz Says:

  45. R Dot Murdock Says:

    It may just be over for Jimmy who knows.

  46. Cash Williams Says:

  48. PIGGY ROSS Says:

    “NANA NA NANA” FAILED TO CATCH ON LIKE “WE FLY HIGH” I THINK IF IT HAD BECOME HOT IT WOULD’VE GIVEN JIMMY AT LEAST 60,000 MORE SALES.

    SHAME THAT HE FLOPPED,OH WELL,I GUESS DAME DASH WILL HAVE TO LOOK FOR ANOTHER ARTIST TO BE THE NEXT HOV AIN’T THAT RIGHT DAME

  49. LatinKing Says:

    Dame said this was a classic??????????????? What was he smoking when he heard NA NA NA? That song a classic? What happen when he heard his boy Jimmy making up fake words with “fenemies”???? WTF is a Fenemies? The concept must been real dope when you high as kite in the studio….LOL

  53. Ed Says:

    Hmm remember what Jimmy had to say about NAS, well lets look how Nas is doíng 15 years after his´debut.

    Untitled.

    “The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 album charts selling 187,078 copies in the first week of release. As of October 26, 2008, the album has sold 407,133.”

    Must have gone at least 500.000 by now, not bad in a recession but that just shows NAS is CLASSIC.

    Peace.

    Peace.

  60. mo Says:

    @Ed – shame on you for even bringing or mentioning Nas (arguably top 2) in hip hops history in terms of lyrical ability and influence in the same sentence as this moron. I understand you’re trying to prove a point…but nah man c’mon not Nas…or even Jay-Z.

    Soulja Boy has more hits than Jimmy that’s a proven fact. Soulja boy can go on spring break and out perform Jim Jones. That’s not my opinion ask Jimmy he knows.

    Look how many heavy hitters hopped on the swag song…just on da strength…he get my vote.

    Soulja Boy>Jenny Jones. Again not my opinion a fact of human universal existence.

  61. moneyblak Says:

  63. Ed Says:

    @mo , well it is Jimmy who brought up Nas in the first place and now he comes out like a S*****. I hate being a hater, but Jimmy got me boiled when he talked trash bout NAS.

    Peace.

  64. Jay Writter Says:

    Jim all I have to say is….. “Na Na Nana Na Na” to the number one spot

  67. ChrisFromthaDtothaPHX Says:

    Wow.. that’s shocking for Jim Jones.

    But that just goes to show, just cause your on a major dont mean you will easily get numbers…

  68. LOL Says:

    43,000 right now is not a flop. Retards.

  69. Guest Says:

    they both are wack . so im not surprised

  70. LOL Says:

    Max B wont ever be anything more than what he is right now. French Montana? Look at the lyrics he chose to put on that New York Minute beat. You get that hot beat, and Jada’s guest appearance, and that’s all he came up with. Put that flame out.

    Jim starts selling 40 a week and watch your face turn red.

  71. DON'T DO IT! Says:

    Since when do fans care about record sales? Just buy music if you like it!…. Oh yeah!… this happened when everybody decided that they can rap and call themselves a musician now… So now everybody pays attention to sales cause everybody is in their basements making garbage rap songs. Everybody can rap now huh?… So they hate on anyone else that’s doing it bigger than them.

    ( by the way I don’ care about jim jones dipset or anything)

    RAP IS JUST PLAYED OUT PERIOD.

  72. ANAHILATOR Says:

    40,OO0 + RECORDS SOLD. DUE THE MATH. DEDUCT PRODUCTION FEES=MANAGEMENT FEES=LAWYER FEES=ENTOURAGE FEES( INCLUDING HOTEL STAYS, TRANSPORTATION, ETC.) VIDEO COST. ETC.

    NOW WHAT PROMOTER IS GONNA PAY HIM ANY REAL MONEY KNOWING THAT HE CANT EVEN SELL OVER 100K FIRST WEEK OUT. HIS ALBUM WONT EVEN REACH 200 THOUSAND……

    AND SUPPOSELY YOU SPLASHING ON THEM. KEEP SPENDING MONEY THE WAY YOU TALKING YOU BE BROKE BEFORE 2011….

    It’s a Business. you have to first recoup the monies that was given to you to make the album, video cost etc. now deduct that shit from the monies made this week. Jimmy the numbers don’t match. and I doubt you gonna be receiving 100 thousand a show…. whatever promoter who pays you that is definately not listening to the streets. And the streets say you not hot anymore……..The bird has left the nest…………

  73. LOL Says:

    #71 co-sign.

    I grew out of dipset after 5 mixtapes.
    BUT

    You people are fronting so bad saying this album is trash. All you fucks should be liking this album, its right down your ignorant as fuck im hood wannabe drug dealer mind set. Im shocked kids are eating this shit up like candy.

    Keri Hilson is fake and ANAL, and Jim Jones is still kicking money in our face. Industry music sucks and the sales prove it. When are we gonna stop listening to this bullshit and start listening to “hungry” independent artist again, these fat cookies are stale!!!!

  86. d Says:

    no 1 likes jones and that proves it. dude wack and dame wack fr thinkin he can mess wit jay!

  87. Cutta Says:

    Jones failed cuz of timing and poor handle of promo, Keri is a new artist but will progressively do better as the weeks go by

    LOL Killa Cam go platinum??? LMAO Thats like sayin he’s better than Jadakiss, Cam wont do any better than Jones and then they both can laugh at each other.
