Riverbank Posted Wednesday at 11:03 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 11:03 AM 15 hours ago, pride4jc1222 said: Expect a change in the Billboard 200 methodology really soon. This is from HITSDD: Hide contents The methodology of the chart, to put it bluntly, is fu-ck-ed. Digital album sales are the primary culprit; all manner of chicanery takes place late in the chart week, and the thumbs placed unevenly on the scale by Luminate and Billboard have been an issue on an almost weekly basis. The labels have made some moves to curb these excesses—except when they need the eggs. More recently, the chart overlords have taken strongly punitive steps in hopes of stopping what they consider an abuse of these late-in-the-week moves by certain companies. The use of $4.99 digital album downloads to jack up the chart on Wednesday or Thursday is cut-out promo schlock in modern-day drag. Meanwhile, charges of bullshit are shouted from the rooftops on both coasts and some consider this a huge waste of time and money. Let's hope so.

He backed out at the last minute. With him in prison, I wonder if the album will ever be released now. Back in the day they would have rush released it to capitalize on the prison hype. Labels are slipping. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
