Jorja Smith sells 12k first week

[mortuus est]

I dunno breh. She's young but I'm in my later 20s as are my female friends who listen to her.

so you think only late 20s are the only age group that listen to her?> or thats the only people in her fanbase?

again the proof is in her socials and stage shows

 

[NvrCMyNut]

if she was full black she would sell 1200

 

[WickedGames]

12-15k is not good at all, especially in the streaming era. I think people overestimated how popular she is

That Predator song she has is flames, great lounge type of song

I been following her and know her situation and these numbers good imo. Independant, no hits, no features, mellow type music. No pandering. All self written. She's only 19.

RnB also isn't a genre heavily weighed on first week. Trapsoul sold 22k first week.

i figured she had a hit already , i fukked with that Get It Together song with Drake heavily


That Predator song needs to be a hit at least on the Dance charts or something. I didn't realize Trap SOul was so terrible 1st week, I guess Don't didn't really explode til a bit later?

It's a good album...

 

[GrindtooFilthy]

Have no idea why she released an album with barely any promotion or rollout


Her management team is the WOAT

This...no promotion

She's English, it's already hard enough as it is breaking into the US market as an outsider. She's lucky the Drake co-sign and feature on More Life even got her exposure in the first place.

[MercuryHayes]

she doesn't have a core fanbase or hit single

why is this a thread

 

[Cynic]

beige woman known more for her looks than actual music, has no star factor, no massive singles, no American appeal , and is English. yup sounds bout right

Explain Ella Mai ?

 

[AB Ziggy]

Explain Ella Mai ?

Ella is signed under DJ Mustard. Connections help go a long way such as in her case.

Jorja on the other hand, not so much.

Ella had been at it for 3 years...

These UK acts need to be working with the mumble rappers more

Somehow this is the straight black man’s fault
