ATRL Moderator wehavetostan Posted June 17, 2022 ATRL Moderator Posted June 17, 2022 The ninth studio album by Christina Aguilera, entitled “AGUILERA” failed to enter the Billboard 200 after its first full tracking week. I find it surprising because “LA FUERZA” sold 4,000 equivalent album units in its first week (2,000 of which were pure sales) back in January. Also, her previous studio album, “Liberation”, debuted at #6 on the Billboard 200.
St. Charles Posted June 17, 2022 Posted June 17, 2022 I feel like when your following is mostly US-centered, they might treat your spanish album as a side project and not a "real" album.
zach Posted June 17, 2022 Posted June 17, 2022 We all know why. It was rushed together as an album to meet the Latin Grammy deadline. There’s no physical copies. Etc etc. NOBODY expected it to chart.
Isaiah Posted June 17, 2022 Posted June 17, 2022 I like Xtina a lot but as an American I thought this was a little side EP so I can’t say I’m shocked

Couldn't they wait for it to be nominated next year?
Sander Posted June 17, 2022 Posted June 17, 2022 Aside from the roll-out it's a Spanish EP album and those simply are not as anticipated as a full English studio album. Her Mi Reflejo album, released in her prime, shows it rather caters to a niche as well. Additionally half of the content was released months ago & there is no physical edition. I think no one expected it to chart, but it's all ok. She delivered a solid, quality project so far.
Daydream Posted June 17, 2022 Posted June 17, 2022 I’m sorry but we’re not in the year 2000 anymore. Christina could still be charting in 2022 if she invested in her career more but she didn’t. She failed to solidly her place in the industry (we’ve known this for 1.5 decades) by taking long breaks, burning bridges with people in the industry, not being able to settle on a sound/image. So it’s no surprise people don’t check for her anymore.
Bhabylon Posted June 17, 2022 Posted June 17, 2022 (edited) Xtina is a non-factor The only people checking for her are gays in their early to mid 30's now. No one else knows her. Edited June 17, 2022 by Bhabylon

vuelve88 Posted June 17, 2022 Posted June 17, 2022 I think it was a huge success. DMF probably has more insights into the album’s overwhelming success.

That’s cause her team sucks and MGK’s tour is bombing which is hilarious. Avril’s Canadian tour was mostly sold out and her European shows next year are almost all sold out as well. Avril’s latest album outdid the previous one (peak and units) without vinyl Edited June 17, 2022 by ProudLBS
Brishka Posted June 17, 2022 Posted June 17, 2022 Not surprised at all. Why would you expect her albums to chart anywhere?
WhateverYouWant Posted June 17, 2022 Posted June 17, 2022 Kinda expected for a Spanish album by Xtina in 2022. The album is good at least.
October Symphony Posted June 17, 2022 Posted June 17, 2022 This woman once was the second most successful female recording artist during the end of 90s and first half of 00s, to the point that now she can’t reach billboard 200 is a mystery to me.
