Michael’s old albums have been selling like CRAZY since his death last Thursday!!! “Billboard” has released the sales numbers from last week, and Michael has set all kinds of new records!!
Can you believe all this happened in just FOUR days?!? Last week’s numbers include sales from Monday, June 22nd, through this past Sunday. Obviously, most of Michael’s sales occured AFTER his death on Thursday.
Three of his albums, the 1982 classic, “Thriller”, and the greatest hits discs “Number Ones” and “The Essential Michael Jackson”, all sold more than the highest-selling recent release, the BLACK EYED PEAS’ disc, “The E.N.D.”.
Michael’s three albums all sold over 100,000 copies! For comparison, Michael’s ENTIRE catalog sold just 10,000 copies in the week before he died.
“Billboard” magazine says that radio airplay for Michael Jackson’s music jumped 1,735% after his death on Thursday. For the week ending this past Sunday, Michael’s music got 67,383 plays . . . compared with 3,671 plays the week before. HOLY S&^%!!
