The City Girls’ official album sales numbers are in. The Miami duo’s new album, RAW (Real A*s Wh*res), debuted at number 117 on the Billboard 200 chart with 10,000 copies sold in the first week.

The album’s chart position and sales figure came as a shock to City Girls members Caresha “Yung Miami” Brownlee, 29, and Jatavia “JT” Johnson, 30.

By comparison, ex-Migos rapper Offset’s new album, Set It Off debuted at No. 2 on Billboard’s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and No. 5 on the Billboard 200 chart last week.

The “I’ll Take Your Man” rappers blamed their management for not promoting or marketing the album during a visit to “The Breakfast Club” last week. City Girls are signed to Quality Control Records in Atlanta.

“I feel like people listen with they eyes and not their ears no more,” said JT, who added that music sales soared during the pandemic because people had more money.

“Everybody was buying music ’cause everybody had money. Everybody was scamming… Now it’s like, ‘I don’t f**k wit y’all. I’m broke and I don’t wanna hear that sh*t.'”

JT continued:

“It’s tough times… You get what you put in and sh*t. And I feel like, collectively, we didn’t do what we had to do to promote the album. But if you don’t go hard with promoting your sh*t, and putting it in people’s face, it’s like, of course it’s going to miss people… By the time people discovered it, it was discovered as a joke.”

Breakfast Club co-host Charlamagne said he didn’t realize “Good Love” (featuring Usher) was a City Girls record until the album dropped.

City Girls also explained why they declined to host The Breakfast Club to promote their album.

“I didn’t want to talk about other people,” JT said. “I wasn’t on that call,” Yung Miami added.
