Michael Jackson sells a million in a week, but Maxwell tops the albums chart

I don’t think drug reports or anything specific will affect his sales. Eventually the market and our ears will become saturated and the sales will decline in a natural manner. His sales should continue to do well for a long long time if the family gets someone smart to handle the business similar to Elvis’ music.

I believe that Michael Jackson’s stunning posthumous album sales was the shot in the arm the music industry needs after months and years of weekly declining album sales! Perhaps it can make people go back to buying physical music CDs and listening to FULL ALBUMS again instead of downloading every year since 2006 for one or two songs. Lastly, I hope that Michael’s passing will convince music artists out there to get off their butt, perform for their fans more often, and promote their music more! Michael gave 150% or more to his performances, he was that decidated to his art and craft. This is just like the big monster million-copies weeks that Thriller was selling during 1983!
