What up, I'm getting a later start on this, than I thought i would, so I'm gonna post the more important stuff, it's 2 am, and I gotta be up early, so here goes with some:
Calm Storms Through The Charts: Well you knew this was coming, but the first week of sales of The Calm is tearing up the billboard charts, and even could be the number one selling EP of all time in it's first week! Holy Shit! here's the info posted from ICP.com:
The Calm Drops on the World, and There's Nothing Calm About It
May 25, 2005
Psychopathic Records, along with the Insane Clown Posse, would like to give a big "Thank you" to all the Juggalos that went out and bought The Calm EP during week one of its release. The Calm, without a doubt, is ICP's most successful EP ever released, far surpassing week one releases of ICP's other previous EPs. As a matter of fact, right now, Billboard is checking on the possibility that The Calm's first week sales may end up being the best out of any EP ever released in the history of the charts--all formats included!
Now, it's true that out of the over 30,000 records that are released each year, only a few hundred of them are EPs. But still, to the have the #1 selling EP of all time in first week sales, or to even make the Top 10 in that category, would be a great honor. But for that, we're gonna have to wait and see. As far as a bunch of other charts go, here's the flavor:
- #32 on the Billboard Top 100 Chart
- #5 on the Billboard Rap Chart
- #5 on the Billboard Internet Sales Chart
- #4 on the Billboard brand new Hard Music Chart
And, of course...
- Number motherfuckin' 1 on the Billboard Independent Chart!
That's right, bitch, Psychopathic ain't no fuckin' Warner Brothers, but in the indie world, we own that fuckin' Independent Chart!
Once again, we'd like to thank all the Juggalos and Juggalettes that completely had our back and went out and bought The Calm EP. Fuck yeah, it's definitely a tight little EP. Juggalos everywhere have been jamming that shit for the dope-ass summer just around the corner. And as for the rest of you, what the fuck you waiting for? The Calm is out and available everywhere--most places still have it on sale for about five or six bucks, and it's chock-full of flavor. Straight up, it's easily one of the best deals, if not the best deal, going on right now in the music business. Stop sleepin' and jump on this shit, 'cause from the response we've been getting from the Juggalos, it's definitely worth it.
