This Week In Flops 3/18/08

After being 2 weeks removed from a 10 week reign at #1 on the Hot 100 Flo Rida is finally releasing his debut album today. I still maintain he has one of the corniest/wackest rap names in Hip-Hop, but even with that dude did what few ever do in their entire career with his first single. That's major! Anyway, after all that early success I still don't see Flo making much of a dent on the Billboard 200 next week. Maybe if they released it 2 or 3 weeks ago when he was at his hottest things would be different, but as I see it he'll do around 150-200k in his first week. Take that with a grain of salt though because it looks like my predictions last week are gonna be WAYYYY off for the Thursday Billboard Update lol.

The girls of DK are back and yes I stil want to impregnate them all! Anyway, there 2nd album drops today and with MTB4 and Diddy's No Bitchassness campaign as their only promotion I don't see much success ahead. There is light at the end of the tunnel though. Normally with a group that has received hardly any radio play (well that I know of at least) and just got their video put out last week you'd think to go low, but not DK. They have a pretty good fanbase and MTV behind them so I don't see them following below the 100k mark. In fact, I think they'll fall in more around the 120-140 range.

I'm sure most people don't even know this is coming out seeing that his single Good Love is getting no radio play outside of New York City. That's never a good sign and that won't change for Louch. I doubt he'll go much further than 50k, if that. I think 35-45k would be a good estimate.

Honestly, I had forgotten about this nigga and his garbage ass song until I saw the commercials on BET last week lol. This is another case of a rapper letting his/her song get bigger than them and in this case the song wasn't even that big so what does that tell you about the rapper behind it?? And to add insult to injury he let everyone from T.I. to Max B get on his record and steal the show lol. I'm sure most people don't even know that shit is his song seeing that so many other, more popular people spit on it. Whatever, this nigga sucks and his sells will attest to that because he won't even do 30k. 15-25k is all I can see myself giving him, sorry Monica lol.
