Now with album numbers! Carrie might not get any love from the cliquey CMA voters, but the public loves her (into the top 10 with an 85% increase in sales).
Carrie blows away the competition, Carly Rae just keeps moving those singles and Phil takes a victory lap with “Home”. What will this week’s numbers hold?
This is the weekly sales thread. Please post numbers as you find them. Thanks!
