Um no Ray. I get what you're saying to an extent , but no.


1, it's Christmas. People want to buy gifts for others and assuming some iTunes or google download would suffice is kinda silly. I'm sure that was the initial strategy OF releasing in December; the Christmas sales spike.

2; she toured the nation and it was sold out basically every night. People still want to see her and support her. Monica still has a core fanbase.

3; demand or not, they have done this to her before and she proved to the label that Monica is majorly a physical sales artist.

And I GET to an extent why they didn't ship as much as Chris. She's not AS in demand. But people complaining all over the net speaks volumes. There's no getting with the program. The label dropped the ball.
I dunno how they didn't realize Monica's fanbase is older and doesn't really participate in the digital age in the way someone like Chris' fanbase would.

She's not in demand?That's what they said in 2010 too even with a hit song.It's definitely on them.

It appears that diva Monica will sell three or four times the units the experts had predicted at the start of this week. Thanks to Justin, Monica and the latest hits collection in the Now franchise, we?re looking at three six-figure debuts as the biz makes a strong comeback from this week?s paltry numbers, the first chart without a 100k entry after 29 straight weeks. Here's the big picture as of Friday morning:

I don't think it would have made a huge difference in her sales, but I do agree that Monica's type of fans actually buy physical albums and I don't think record labels take that into consideration. A lot of my friends buy physical albums still.

Right.

No one is saying sis would have been on Chris' heels in sales, but  there's still no reason this mess was happening after the first NIGHT of release.

Who knows what her numbers could have been.

I don't understand how being "undershipped" is still an excuse. We live in the digital age, the majority of music listeners are streaming or buying online.

And It's crazy because RCA is well aware that she is not a big or even small digital artist, majority of her sales come from physicals...

Do yall have some kind of data to back this up? (and not that vague article from 5 years ago).

And why yall acting like Mo is some old school artist? :dead: The girl us 35? She's a millenial. I'm sure a good portion of her fans are too. I don't see them being less digitally inclined than any other base.

they couldnt find her damn phsycial MESS..
and thats why shes doing around 40k :stressed:
