R&B Prince Elijah Blake has great cause to celebrate today.
For, less than one week after being released to iTunes USA, he has seen his debut single ‘XOX’ storm the charts…securing a Top 20 peak position of on the tally’s main chart!.
Details below…
Earlier today, fans of the ‘Runnin’ Blind’ entertainer would have noticed that ‘XOX’ had made its way to #12 on iTunes USA’s official chart, no doubt spearheaded by the spike it has enjoyed in sales and streams in the last few days.
Forced to the favorable spot by the performer’s ever growing fan base, the song’s #12 peak also came courtesy of the heavy rotation its video is currently receiving on Van Toffler‘s MTV, and 204,000 YouTube streams generated in the last seven days.
As it stands, the cut holds court at #33 on iTunea R&B- impressive…considering the number is yet to enjoy the full power of Top 40 radio- set to score an even higher peak position once it does.
With the likes of ‘Stay’ and ‘Suit & Tie‘ putting the first nail in EDM’s coffin, ‘XOX’s ascent not only attests to the casual listener’s fresh desire for ‘richer sounds’, and Def Jam‘s habit of carving immaculate roll out campaigns.
Think Rihanna.
Think Frank Ocean.
Think Elijah.
By all estimations, the latter is fast becoming his genre’s hottest commodity and with his debut album set to hit chart shores in the coming months, we hope its sales are indicative of this.

Congratz! Hopefully his cd won’t sell 9k like eve
That’s not bad for an independent album. No stan here, but she’s smart, labels now want to take a % of everything you own. Why would you give up your stuff to sell an album, just to get a small % and get paid last. You really think your current new pop star is paid don’t you? All that fashions, make up and s*** is coming out of their pockets and getting money taking out of their tour money and everything.
I can’t say I’m surprised that the song is doing well, everyone in my class keeps going on about him.
Wow… My friend Lnny has just married to a handsome wealthy black man. They met through ~~~ MìxedŚìngle.Çoм ~ ~~A Serious interracial dating is an ideal platform for afro romance for black & white singles. So, if you want to look for people with which you can date, you are at the right place.You can meet(lawyers,busy professionals, benefactors. models, celebrities, etc….)If you are single, perhaps you can have a try.,………………………………….

Rihanna’s impact though.
Erm no sweetie. He’s slaying because people like that whole laid back dude thing he has going on.
Calm down sis.
Don’t respond to my posts, I don’t like you.
Lmfao. Anyways, I really like Elijah.
Where is this chart of which Sam speaks?
Mine got deleted too! All because I stated the fact that Elijah Blake isn’t even in the top 200 on iTunes, let alone #12! Ya’ll on some shady ish today I see. Them paychecks must be good from Def Jam if they got ya’ll willing to straight up LIE!
The sad thing is that they’re not lying. It was around midnight last night. I can’t even be mad at them because the cat is talented.
If it’s true than I need to see some receipts lol. Because if a song was #12 a few hours ago and then randomly fell all the way out the top 200 than something fishy is SURELY up cause that doesn’t happen.
I don’t know how it happened but I went on to preoder BS and saw it after I got it.
I didn’t see it but my girl did.
What kind of random slayage. I saw it this morning but I didn’t believe it.
TGj are so late. I was WAITING on yall to post this.
So it’s true?
Yah huh. I saw it myself and thought they would already have it up but they were too busy worrying about the Queen to care with their hating asses.
I told you gworls he was coming for Francine’s toupe last year.
Does everything need to be a competition?
Beyonce was ranked #17 as forbes most powerful women in the world and she’s the only singer in the top 20 on the list …… And she’s also #1 on forbes most powerful female celebrity . And after 2years 4 is number 71 on itunes top 100 ablums chart !!!
WTF! Chile lemme go support the n**** and buy one for myself now.
You beat me to it hun, I just bought mine.
I’ll buy it if my stupid ass boss pays my cheque on time this month.
I can start using him now.
Yay yay yay yay! My little brother covered this song at his graduation and I’ve been playing it ever since. So happy for him.
Good for him.
Well deserved 2bh, the juice heads at MSU have made it their soundtrack so they probably make up most of the sales.

Oh and can someone tell that w**** to get away from my Elijah Blake.
ELIJAH?! OH I KNOW HE AINT WIT THAT B**** HONEY!! (sit at front door with 3 fryn pans waitn for him to come home)
Well done.
Did someone say Eve sold 9k? B****! That ain’t even gonna pay her car note. Oooooweeeee
I just bought it.
I don’t want to say this prematurely but I can sense what’s happening here. For his single to be doing this well it means people are loving R&B again and that’s only because of Beyonce’s 4. Nobody cared about it for a long time before then.
You’re joking right? Beyonce is not R&B. She’s a flop pop singer.
I want him to come to Seoul.

They met through ~~~ ~~InterràcìalFìshes.Çoм ~~ ~ ~~A Serious interracial dating forr black & white single sseeking interracial relationships, friendships, dating ,love and more..

I didn’t really know him until TGJ started talking about him but I’m really using a few of the songs on the mixtape. Vicky Secret and the rest of em.
