Last night during Monica’s live chat on my blog, I learned that singer Mario’s album that went on sale on Tuesday will flop with expected sales in the 20-25k range. Aw, that’s too bad. One of my readers attributed the flop to lack of promotion. She said she wasn’t aware the album was even coming out until it went on sale on Tuesday, lol.
Heads will roll in the marketing dept. at J Records after the final sales figures come out. I can understand why the label chose not to buy ad space on this blog. Especially since my readers outed their artist some time ago. But from a marketing standpoint, it was a miscalculation since Mario’s fans frequent this blog too. Why not put your artist in front of his fans wherever they may be?
Oh well. I’m still going to go out and buy Mario’s CD because we need to support our struggling R&B artists (except for Ash Trey Song, fukk him).
