Universal Motown teenage diva JoJo’s The High Road is on target to sell north of 100k, a slight increase over her ’04 debut, which tallied 95k in its first week, thanks to a smash single in “Too Little Too Late.”
Capitol Nashville country stud Dierks Bentley’s Long Trip Alone will have plenty of company to the tune of between 80-100k buyers, with approximately 99.9% of those sales coming in the red states. J’s American Idol winner Ruben Studdard’s The Return is just that for the now diminished big guy, whose non-gospel effort is expected to attract some 60k true believers, give or take a “k” or two.
MCA Nashville perennial Vince Gill’s massive four-CD box set, These Days, could sell upwards of 40k copies, a pretty impressive feat considering a retail price over $20.
Next Tuesday, look for Columbia’s John Legend, Gospocentric/ZLG’s Kelly Price, Reprise’s My Chemical Romance, Epic’s Ben Folds and Saddle Creek’s Bright Eyes to top the release schedule.
The market was down between 3-4% from last week, down over 2% vs. same week last year and now down a little over 5% year-to-date.
