The real concern should be, is the album hot or not?
Was there a hot single?
Chris's album that had "Loyal" on it, didn't sell well, but when I think back on it - i won't remember the album, but i'll remember that smash hit.
Ciara's "RIDE" and "BODY PARTY" slays beyond most female R&B acts in the past years, and i don't even know what albums they came from and don't care.
