when u flop in the UK u flop period, they buy!

Its a shame and the album has definitely under performed but it will interesting to see the actual album sales and whether any material on it can bring it success in the future.

In 2008 Beyonce I am Sasha Fierce debuted at number 10, but it sold a whopping 106k, which was more then both B’day and 4, yet B’day and 4 both opened at Number 1.

The album then went on to peak at number 2, almost a year after its release, but probably didn’t equal its opening numbers despite the higher chart position.

The point is people should be focused on unit sales and not chart positions.

@king I was referring to UK sales, I should have clarified.

lol, I’m not implying that the album sold 100k, it is possible though that its around the region 30-50k, Nicki only sold 47k (UK) when she bagged herself a number 1 album just over a month ago, did that “bomb” aswell. Now if you were to put those sales in context of the competetive week beyonce launched IASF in, then Nicki’s number 1 album may have missed out on the top 20 entirely.

I’m not trying to say Alexandra’s album launch is a massive success, Its just that its hard to measure its actual performance without unit sales. For all we know it could have sold 10k, now that really would be sad

The album actually isn’t as bad as the preview suggests.

It’s a good pop album. Alexandra really shows off her impressive vocal range on it and there’s a few gems – “Elephant”, “Let It Go”, “Fire”, “BETWEEN THE SHEETS”, “DAYLIGHT ROBBERY” and “WHAT MONEY CAN’T BUY” (which she absolutely slays).

The album flopped because it actually didn’t get enough promo – the shows she performed on were nothing major. Most of her appearances have been on blogs it seems!

PLUS, the biggest punch is RADIO. RADIO HAS BEEN BLACKLISTING HER SINCE SHE LEFT SIMON COWELL.

Radios can make and break an artist and with all popular stations refusing to play her tracks poor Alexandra didn’t stand a chance
