R&B just not selling period. Alicia did promote this album more than her last two releases. She in a silmalar case as Norah Jones remember she sold 1 million copies in one week now can barely sell 30k. The YOUTH run the industry as far as sales goes. Alicia fan base is grown and not buying albums no more. When they were teenagers them and all there friends would buy albums. Look at J. Cole he sold 375k his last album with no promotion and no big single. Because he connected with the young people with no gimmick. I wish Alicia did sell more tho cause it seems she found a place she comfortable at and music sounds good.
