Let critics tell it, ‘Can’t Raise A Man’ maestra K. Michelle raised the bar with her latest album, ‘More Issues Than Vogue’ (released March 25th). Kicked off by the warmly received ‘Not A Little Bit’ and ‘Mindful,’ the songstress delivered an eclectic set of tunes that found favor from fans of multiple genres.
However, as predictions revealed, the experimentation may have not paid off in her favor. Yielding her lowest first week sales to date, all has not been lost as ‘Vogue’ still managed to dance its way up the Billboard 200.
Keen to find out what her final first week numbers are? They await you below:
First Week Sales: 59,000
(Pure Album Sales = 54,000)
Coming in at No. 2 on the new Billboard 200 chart is K. Michelle with More Issues Than Vogue (59,000 units; 54,000 in pure album sales). The start matches her high-water mark on the list, first achieved with her debut effort, Rebellious Soul, when it opened at No. 2 on the Aug. 31, 2013 list.
More Issues Than Vogue is the singer’s third top 10 effort. Following Rebellious Soul, she notched a second top 10 with Anybody Wanna Buy a Heart? in 2014 (debuting and peaking at No. 6). – Billboard
