This album (Me. I Am Mariah...The Elusive Chanteuse), is Mariah Carey's 13th studio album, and it dropped last week Tuesday. After a full week in stores, it sold 95,000 copies globally. This numbers should not be confused with what the album sold in America; nationally, it sold 58,000 copies first week. What this means is that the album sold 37,000 extra copies internationally. These global numbers are better to look at than the national numbers, which a lot of people have complained about. They can't believe someone of Mariah's status would sell that low. But, really, when did it all become a numbers game? Of cos artists have to be successful, but people make it seem like the quality of an album should be judged by the quantity sold.
