Ouch: Mariah Carey’s First Week Album Sales Are Not Looking Too Great

Poor Mariah Carey can just not win lately. The legendary songstress has been struggling with voice issues, a failed marriage, weight gain and now…. super low album sales! According to reports from Headline Planet, “Mariah Carey’s “#1 to Infinity” is expected to move 14-16,000 complete copies in its first week of release.” As of now, she’s looking at about a solid $15,000. Hits Daily Double explain that they add the inclusion of Track Equivalent Album, which would be broken down to 10 single sales = 1 album sale and Streaming Equivalent Album, 1500 single streams = 1 album sale. With that being said, that’s where they get their estimated number. Will you buy Mariah’s new album or is it over for that?


Finally! Mariah Carey Announces Her New Album [Cover Art]

Mariah Carey is one of the most relevant legendary singers to date and she does not plan to lay low just yet! She recently revealed via her Twitter account that she’ll be releasing a new greatest hits CD called #1 to Infinity. It’s only right being that it has been a whole 17 years since she released her first #1 album comprised of her most famous tunes (don’t you feel old? I remember buying that CD.) She revamped the cover to her upcoming album with a remixed photo of herself posing in a seductive black dress, similar to the original black-and-white cover where she’s standing in a tight dress (but now as sexy as the one she’s wearing for the new cover art!) She has yet to reveal an official release date, but it should be coming soon. Check out Mariah’s official tweet announcing her forthcoming greatest hits album along with the original album cover vs. the new one.
