Good!

I believe it wont peak on airplay for another few weeks, but i still believe it will struggle to go much further... I hope i'm wrong though!

So there's still hope for a new peak. I don't understand why this song is so underrated and underperformed(except UK) :-?

Wow! I had no idea that BOU had been already released

by **JimJim** » Sun Apr 29, 2012 8:52 am

The whole album is out here, it came out on Friday.

Strange Clouds is #15 on the Australian iTunes album chart. I can't seem to access the whole top 1000, so I can't see if any other album tracks are charting between #301-1024

Jeez! I thought the album premiere was pushed back to May 4 :lol:

Fantastic! I need to buy SC tomorrow

@ his current position on iTunes

Do you think BOU can reach #1 on iTunes?
And will it get some airplay tomorrow?

Hmmm...I don't think so. I'll be satisfied if it reaches top 7 on HDS

Grand Hustle/Atlantic rapper B.o.B’s sophomore album, Strange Clouds, is set for 70-80k in first-week sales.

Ehhhh...that was expected, but I was hoping for something ~100k :-?

His debut album sold 84k during its 1st week, so opening sales are quite stable. Considering his flop radio singles this era, the predictions are quite good(TAOBR was supported by 2 massive hits).
Anyway, I'm not satisfied enough, cause SC is going to debut @ #4-5(#5 is more possible -> Carrie, Now, Norah, Adele, Bobby)

by **Timmy94** » Wed May 02, 2012 7:49 pm

Bad result.
I was expecting 150k considering he has a current top-20-single...

I should've been a bit careful because his last album only had a total of 600k, so considering he had no extreme popularity increase, selling 1/4 of that would've been very high, as he's no "scene" artist who sells most of his records in the first week...
Well, maybe Strange Clouds has more longevity than Adventures despite a relatively soft start :wink:

I'm hoping for longevity as well, it's sad that he had a #1 album and it didn't reach platinum.

Meanwhile, you've gotta love the power of T Swizzle's fanbase, 'Both Of Us' doing irregularly well on iTunes everywhere :lol:

Yes, longevity is the key. The album is full of potential hits, so I'm hoping for 1mln copies sold in US when all is said and done :wink:

It would be fantastic, if he could sell 2mln units WW
