Mariah Carey is winning the battle with Madonna.
The numbers are in and Madonna’s Hard Candy has dropped from its #1 spot debut to #5 in the U.S. album charts in just one week.
Whereas Mariah Carey’s E=MC2, in its 4th week of release, comes in 4 for the week, despite being out much longer than Hard Candy.
Mimi sold 8,000 more units than Madge this week!
Now, the important part - money talk!
Madonna’s first weak sales totaled 280k and week 2 brought in 81k for a two week grand total of 361K.
Yikes!!!
Madonna’s drop from week one to week two is 71%!
Mariah Carey’s take for week one ALONE of E=MC2 was 463K.
Mimi’s first week of sales totally beats Madge’s 2 week total by a little over 100K. And she’s still selling more than the Queen of Pop.
