Ringside Seats?  I thought Britney’s Circus Tour was in town this weekend

Can’t wait for Ellen next week!

I’ve had thoughts about this all day.  There are a few points I am going to make right now.

Here are TWO IMPORTANT INSIGHTS

ITEM #1: Prince is #1 in Retail Sales

Prince sold more physical albums than Urban!

Without digital sales, Keith only sold 134,338 making Prince #1 in retail stores.  To me, that is kind of press-release worthy to get out there.

Also…IF Prince added his digital sales from his own web site www.lotusflow3r.com to the mix, he may win the “all in” numbers..depends what he sold digitally.

Keith Urban’s album this week:

ITEM #2:  Capitol Records (most likely) Made Urban #1

OK, hear me out on this because this happens a LOT!  What most likely happened is that Capitol Records was VERY motivated (for many reasons) to deliver a # 1 ranking to Keith Urban. 

Seeing they were only 3,000 units behind the #1 spot, they “did what it took” to ensure the win.

Now, it’s only a theory but it is probably correct. 

If they would have lost by such a small margin (3,000 units) some vice president would have lost their job. 

When it is that close…you can go out and buy the units at a retail store or better yet, Itunes, to ensure the win, and it would be worth the investment.

  The downloads from his OWN site should count on this.  I have not seen a Billboard position this close in a while.  Something is just NOT adding up!-Dr.FB

Misty Copeland File Photo

Here is some info on the HOTNESS that starred in Prince’s new video, “Crimson and Clover”.

Her name is Misty Copeland, and she has been dancing since the tender age of thirteen.  Misty has been called the “first” African American female soloist  for the American Ballet Theater.   She has extraordinary talent and is an exceptionally skilled dancer.

Excellent choice Prince!!

Lotus Flow3r

Rolling Stone has revealed the artwork for Prince’s new album Lotus Flow3r in an article about Prince’s recent late night soiree at his Beverly Hills mansion. You may recall we brought you here the first recap of the night’s events. 

So what do you think? Pretty? y/n? It looks very Earth,Wind, & Fire/Jacksons, doesn’t it? Can’t wait to hear what’s inside. – Dr. FC
