Loading ...Both Ciara’s & Chrisette Michele’s albums dropped this week. They both could be vying for the number 1 spot.
Me personally, I hope Chrisette wins, because so far her album is chock full of WIN. I will be doing a review this weekend if I can squeeze it in. Ciara…well, I will probably do a review of that alongside the other for posterity.
WHICH did you buy? With all of the Ciara leaks and failed singles, her album to me was DOA. Chrisette’s “Epiphany” has been a growing beast out of the gate…
The latest albums from Chrisette Michele and Ciara are on track to debut high on the Billboard 200 chart next week — both with a shot at a No. 1 bow.
Industry prognosticators suggest both Michele’s “Epiphany” (Def Jam) and Ciara’s “Fantasy Ride” (LaFace) will sell over 70,000 copies in their first week of release. With the Mother’s Day holiday on Sunday (May 10), both could see a bump in sales over the weekend due to mom-inspired gift-shopping. Additionally, Ciara is slated to perform on NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” on May 9.
Ciara’s last release, 2006′s “The Evolution,” started at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with 338,000 in the thick of the Christmas shopping season, while Michele’s freshman effort “I Am” debuted and peaked at No. 29 with 27,000 in 2007. (Source)
However, who in the world would buy their mother a Ciara CD for Mother’s Day!? ROFL I don’t see that happening. I wish I would come up in my mama’s house with some “Fantasy Ride”. She’d toss the dirt over my grave.
PS I heard that $2.99 special got extended…is that true? I got mine already though…

I bought Chrisette Michele. I am really very impressed with everything about the album. Working with Ne-Yo was a good decision; he really knows how to craft a song for a specific person.On a whole it is definitely one that I wouldn’t have to skip any songs, but my favorites are:
Epiphany
Notebook
What You Do
Blame It On Me
Another One
Porcelain Doll
I’m Okay
I liked her first album, but there were definitely some songs that I didn’t listen to. I hope she does well with this one because she really deserves it.

I was looking on iTunes and Chrisette had the top album on the iTunes chart. I hope she comes in #, but smh at the top album only selling over 70,000 copies.

I think Ciara might get the number 1 spot but who knows…..It took for her to make that Fantasy Ride to become a stan…lmfao…she grew on me……its not to bad sounds like it was rushed though…..hopefully she will take more time and rethink some stuff when she dod her next album….but I havent heard Chrisette album yet….

If Ciara isn’t #1, that’ll be a flop on her part.
Chrisette not being #1 will be more expected.
I can’t afford either, (2.99 or not), but I would buy Ciara’s. I like that type music more.

I bought Chrisette’s. Her album should do well, especially with a crossover crowd. Her new effort has a different sound and I think will pull a nice crowd.

Im not supporting Ciara/Super Ci at all.
I got Chrisette’s new disc, and I’m really starting to get into it.
I hope Chrisette wins the top slot in the album chart.

well, i would LIKE for Chrisette to go #1 but…yeah.
i got that $2.99 too and don’t regret one penny of it. i would have actually paid full price for it. i refuse to even look at the track listing for Ciara. but that is just my opinion.
