Atlantic Crossing

ATLANTIC CROSSING: Industry observers are talking about the recent cooling-off of Atlantic Records, which at this time last year was way ahead of the pack in new-release marketshare at 8.75%, but has dropped more than three percentage points to 5.7% year-to-date. Though it’s hard for a label to recover after such a slow start, Atlantic’s fortunes are on the rise behind Urban phenom B.o.B., who has sold 1.75m singles, setting up a projected 75-100k first week on his debut album.
