Yeah, I would expect will.i.am to have low sales.
I doubt people got confused by the album title, I mean, if they got past his name..

dumb name for an album though

TJ's cover could easily make people who like his music avoid buying the album..

Honestly none of those numbers are surprisingly low to me.

Miller wrote:Those first 3 assumptions of why they failed to sell dont make sense. Budden didnt sell cause exposure on tv and being in another group on a major label? You'd think that would help a lot. And Trinidad James didnt sell because that one song he had was awful.


My exact thoughts when reading this. lol more senseless Slaughterhouse bashing on TR 'cause its the cool thing to do

Budden didn't sell because the music wasn't great.

Yeah none of that was surprisingly low. Some of it would be easily predictable & if anything did a little better than expected anyway.
