First of all nobody watches Monica's show ! And on top of being a mom and trying to amp this cd at the same time she managed to debut on #2 on her first week !! Now let's compare this to the world reknown megastar Rihanna . First of all let's look at how much publicity this album managed to get ...., she performed at the AMA's and was extreamly talked about . Rated R managed to sell a little over 500,000 copies till today. And didn't make it top ten in it's first two months . Now let's look at Chris brown who DID nothing at all to amp this album at all and still managed to get The#6 position on it's first week !! This just says that peole go for quality music Rated R wad truly a waste of my money and it's one of the worst albums in this decade !
