An artist like Monica could easily ALWAYS sell platinum with just the support of their uban radio play but J just won’t give them product to sell. J records really disgust me with the way they treat their artists. Rihanna and Mariah will sell more but they’ve had tons more product available for sell. So yes, unless they get more copies on the shelf her album will only go gold and it’ll take about 8 months to 1 year to sell it. Monica could have easily done over 300K if J records would believe in their R&B artists like Maxwell’s and Keyshia Cole’s labels do. It will likely be because J records refuses to ship more then 400K (initial) albums to retailers for MOST of their non crossover urban artists. Monica sales might tumble over the next few weeks but it won’t be because of lack of interest or urban radio support.
