2011 has certainly been the year of groundbreaking albums.
From Adele‘s ’21’ at the start of the year to Lady GaGa‘s long awaited ‘Born This Way‘ in May which was then followed by Beyonce‘s ‘4‘ in June, it is fair to say that the earlier quarters of the year proved to be a bountiful one for Pop fans everywhere.
Now it seems the final four months of the year are looking to be just as competitive, with the likes of Drake, Rihanna, Jason Derulo, Leona Lewis ,Nicole Scherzinger and Mary J.Blige all releasing new LP’s before the year ends.
Who do YOU think will come out on top?

adele will sell the most. end off
No1 wil beat Adele she is just the best at what she does perfect at doing live concerts but also very humble n is a proper english lass!! 😀 but RIHANNA IS GONNA COME OUT ON TOP OUT OF THE OTHERS!! 😀 RIhanna NAVY!!
1)Adele……2)Lady Gaga….3)BEYONCE
Adele will have the best selling album of 2011
+ Rihanna will outsell everyone this fall
Drake cd will be like wayne’s he will do very very well. I also think Mary J will do very well in the R & B department. People are looking for something different than the same old s*** from the same artists. So I say Drake & Mary for late 2011-2012
1) Drake 2) Rhianna and probably Mary
Leona will beat their asses!!!
The navy better pray that she get her # 1 this time around cause that will not be a good look for her after six albums. Lets see, mary always sells a lot, she may not have the hits but have an album with great music. When I last checked the great music never make it big on billboard but the dance tracks and s** music does.
Groundbreaking??Hmm…It was a good year for albums, I suppose, but groundbreaking is a bit too much, don’t you think??Anyway, none of those albums are going to dominate or be really HUGE in that sense.Drake and MJB will get a No.1 and then start slipping and Rihanna will have a lengthy chart run and Monica will do well (she needs to push the album back to December).J Cole may do well in the first 2-3 weeks as well, but he won’t sell a lot at the end of the day.I’m really underwhelmed by his album tbh.
Mary will come out on top as always. Drake will do good as well. Rihanna music shows no growth at all.
But noone can beat Jason, Nicole and Leona.All 3 will dominate the bargain bins (no hate 😛 )
Adele will obviously be best seller but Drake for first week sales will smash… I hope. I’m routing for him <3
drake for sure will run the xharts this fall….next my gil QUEEN OF NAVY;…mary j blige,leona and monica will pushes back ! derulo is my boy
Drake
mary
monica
rihanna
jason/nicole
the rest
I do not know who will dominate…but I will give my take on whose album will succeed. Here we go:
Rihanna – ‘Untitled’ – YES
Drake- ‘Take Care’ – YES
Jason Derulo – ‘Future History’ – LMAO. You’re too funny SAM
Leona Lewis – ‘Glassheart’ – YAWN (it will be a hit with insomniacs)
J.Cole – ‘Cole World: The Sideline Story’ – YES (The power of hype)
Nicole Scherzinger – ‘Killer Love’ – The girl whose 1st album got canned because of 2/3/4? consecutive single duds. Uhmm…NO
Monica – ‘New Life’ – NO
Melanie Fiona – ‘The MF Life’ – Love her…but NO
Mary J. Blige – ‘My Life II: The Journey Continues (Act I)’ – YES (class act)
Mary or Drake. Maybe Rihanna. The others will hopefully have good albums, but success wise i’m not so sure.
well miss grapy… obviously they ALL suck!
the one that really counts is “Ceremonials” by Florence + The Machine… Flo is the epitome of greatness!
If Monica’s album is properly launched, then it will be certified gold in 3-4 months for sure.It’s no problem for her.The audience is there, but the material is what counts and I’m hoping that ‘Anything’ is a buzz single and not the lead single because this song is doing nothing right now.She can sell much better than most urban artists based on her name alone, but it would be nice if her label got it right with the 2nd single.Her album will be successful for sure 😎
Lmao @ these Little Riri fans….that Nasty S*** isnt ruling anything but her rotten v***** Lmao. MARY is going to get n that w****’s ass with My Life Pt 2. R**** always dropping albums during the holidays…that h** is scared to drop January through August…Untalented S***.
First off,lemme say that I loathe your s***** mobile site…
Rihanna will do well,IDK if she’ll hit #1 or not so I’ll leave that discussion alone.
J Cole- Maybe
Jason- Unclear
Leona-Not in the states
Adele- I’m not even gonna lie,she SLAYED our faves this year.
Beyonce-Even though some think 4 is underwhelming for Beyonce numbers,you gotta consider that she’s mainly an R&B artist,and she has been leading the pack of R&B girls THIS generation (right alongside Alicia,but that’s a different story.)
Chris Brown-Did pretty good too.
Britney-In terms of music,it was OKay,but the Britney stans felt their b****** too much and her album underwhelmed in the end
Lil Wayne-Had one of the WORST albums that I’ve heard so far this year but the n**** can sell…
The Throne did well but people weren’t really feeling them this time around…
Gaga-I STAN for this woman and even without that 99 cent excuse that y’all keep propping up,she still sold a Shitload of albums during her first week.The only problem was the OVERhype from her camp.
Mary will do fine
and Drake will do well.
Mary and Drake will be the two artist with this battle.

Addendum:
Knowing the shady underground dealings of “Young Money” I would not be surprised if Drake dominates the quarter.
Oh damn…..I missed the words Fourth Quarter
I want Leona to, but I think Drake will, Followed by Rhi and then Mary J.

This !!!
Drake 1st week sales was over 400,000 last year and went platinum in 6 weeks, I think he will still out sale Rihanna and Mary.
first week sales
Drake 350,000
Mary 310,000
Rihanna, 170,000
Jason and J cole I can’t see them selling 100,000 the first week.
adele still selling like it just came out…so..idk???
…
Target giving out $1,000 giftcards http://goo.gl/7L9QW ..4 their 30th anniversary..next 24 hours only..all my school s*** paid 4!
None of these people are really huge sellers. I voted for rihanna by default.
Adele will dominate followed by Gaga there’s no beatin those 2. Gudluck rihanna.
Among the ones listed by TGJ is so clear Drake will have the biggest sales this fall. Just look his last year´s album.
But really no one will match Adele´s f****** album of the year in all fronts. And also nobody will surpass Lady gaga as second
Adele wins by far.
I prefer 4 over BTW but i think BTW has sold more.
but BTW really threw me off tbh.
I also liked Killer Love too!
Future history was really…….. Meh….
I’m hoping for Leona she Has yet to impact US so its UNCLEAR! Once she release a single we will See and Mary drake or Jcole. . Riri might #1 Btw don’t Doubt any1 Remember Adele? Who would have thought she would slay our favs soooo bad they don’t even hold a candle to her lol anyway I’m doubting Nicole After Xfactor think she got some tricks up her sleeve Needs better material
If the first single is set proprely and get to N#1 somewhere…. Mary will have the best first week sales without a DOUBT !
Then Drake
Others… Don’t Give A FCK
Adele is my favorite album of this year. I am looking forward to Drake because I thought his first album was one of the most solid debuts I’ve ever heard. Love Rihanna as well. She is trying to make history dropping an album every year…I mean damn. I’m not complaining though lol 🙂
Iv noticed that its mostly Rihanna’s haters who really want her to ger a #1 album….her fans don’t care that much cuz she does well in the end which is all that matters…but Drake or Mary will debut the highest
Rihanna should clear 200+ K in the opening week, and about 4M+ by this time next year. I think Mary will take #1 in the US on 11/21, but Rihanna’s will sell more copies over the long haul.
Drake should sell well. I don’t know if he’ll open with 500K like his first LP, but his 1st week sales should be strong
Ugh! Why is everyone still yapping about Adele? Yeah we know her ass has been slaying all year, but can ya’ll read?! Her album came out at the beginning of the year, these predictions are for the SECOND QUATER of the year! Notice how her name is left OFF the pole! We know she has outsold everyone and their mama for the year, but we don’t have to acknowledge that every f****** time! Ugh!
Anywho, I didn’t even realize it was this many albums coming out this fall. I guess cause I am not really checking for most of them. *shrugs* Lol at the R****** stans thinking Rihanna will outsell ‘everyone’ this fall? What in the actual f*** are you people smoking? Ya’ll know RIhanna sells build OVER TIME, Drake will definitely outsell Rihanna as well as most people releasing this fall. Unlike Rihanna’s his album is highly anticipated cause he hasn’t released an album in a couple years. Rihanna releases albums every year, there is no anticipation for her when you already know what to expect.
Mary will probably do well cause he has a solid fanbase. She could possibly outsell Rihanna too….first week anyways.
I think Monica will do decent but no where near as well as her last album cause she doesn’t have a smash hit on radio like she did with ‘Everything to Me’. I can see her pushing her album back. TBH.
I think the majority of Leona’s fanbase are overseas, people in the states aren’t really checking for her so I don’t think she is really a contender. She can sing her ass off though. *shrugs*
Nicole Sghighiseufh?!?!? Chile boo!
I don’t even know why ya’ll put Jason Derulo on the list. That was just silly.
The only albums I am TRULY checking for are J Cole and my girl Melanie Fiona! I think Cole is gonna selll well cause his album is highly anticipated He won’t sell as well as Drake, but pretty good.
I already know Melanie’s sells won’t be stellar, but she has one of the most beautiful soulful voices I’ve heard in a long time and I am absolutely IN LOVE with ‘4Am’! I can’t wait to have her CDs in my hands!
I’M CHECKN 4 MY GURLS MONICA ND RIRI.
We all know Rihanna’s b******* won’t be #1. lol
ADELE SLAYED EVERYBODY!
Mary and Drake are going to MURDER untalented Rihanna’s 1st week sales.
My money’s on the Queen of hip hop and soul
My Order:
Monica
MAry J
Rihanna
Drake
mostly likely it will be
Rihanna
Drake
MAry J
Monica
J Cole
Melandie
Nicole
DRAKE
DRAKE
DRAKE!!!!!
Then Rihanna 😉
MONICA “new life”… I’m getting that.. That new single “until it’s gone” is solid..: and she’s a legend in the making
+
Rihanna – ‘Untitled’ – Yes (Has A Strong Fan Base.)
Drake- ‘Take Care’ – Yes (Young Money Is Going To Buy 1 Million Copies.)
Jason Derulo – ‘Future History’ – LOVE HIM , But !!!! HELL NO !!!!!!
Leona Lewis – ‘Glassheart’ – Beautiful Voice (No One Cares Now A Days Though.They Rather Hear Rihanna Sing. Sad But True.)
J.Cole – ‘Cole World: The Sideline Story’ – Yes (Has A Great Team Behind Him.)
Nicole Scherzinger – ‘Killer Love’ – (Like Her, But HELL NO !)
Monica – ‘New Life’ –Love Her (Might Just Pull 100,000 First Week.)
Melanie Fiona – ‘The MF Life’ – (Nice Voice But NO !)
Mary J. Blige – ‘My Life II: The Journey Continues (Act I)’ – YES (Has A STRONG Fan Base.)
HONESTLY I’M WAITING FOR CIARA TO COMEBACK OUT & SHUT YOU PEOPLE UP!!!!
Ciara HAS IT ALL. Decent Voice , AMAZING Moves , Beautiful From Head To Toe & Needs To Take Some Acting Classes But Well Work Around That (lol). She’s So Talented And Is Working SOOOOO Hard! #5 WILL BE THE BEST ERA FOR HER , SHE’S COMING BACK & READY FOR HER THROWN BABY !!!!!!!!!!!!!! #TEAMCIARA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rihanna will sell
Mary will sell
Drake will sell
Moncia hell no !
@KIMBERLY
i hope rihanna doesn’t get a #1 album because she is still outselling many artist. only album to come out in the last two years to sell more than 5 million and only be #3.
@VA STAND UP,
ummmm drake released thank me later last year, lol
but yeah i think that drake and mary j. will have bigger first week sales than rihanna, rihanna’s album is coming out the same week as mary j. so i think she will get a #2 or #3 album. but rihanna sales are more gradual like you said so in the long run she will out sell drake, but since r&b is not popular like it use to be i don’t think mary will sell as much as rihanna.
Because of the Holiday season all of them should do about 30K more than the usual!!!!
Drake – 480K
Rihanna- 240K
MJB- 250K
Monica – about 210K
**So Drake should dominate 🙁
