Brandy and Monica's albums were not overshipped. What you're not accounting for is sales from the major music clubs at the time which were BMG and Columbia House which was today's equivalent to iTunes for u younger folks out there. Brandy and Monica continued to sell past their retail store numbers which is why their first albums have sold 5 and 3 million copies respectively. And let's not forget that Brandy sold 14 million copies of Never Say Never. Let's also not forget that Have You Ever was the #1 pop song in America for 9 weeks but couldn't chart as so until the label FINALLY released it to retail in December of 1998. Brandy had 7 top 10 Billboard singles and 12 top 10 r&b when u include airplay only singles.
