Has "Teacher" been confirmed as the third single? If so, the single choices have been odd. Just finished listening the album, and the clear standouts are "Wilderness", "Jealous," and "Numb." "Teacher" is ok, but the rest is forgettable. Those three should have been singles, and in that order. It's not 'confirmed', but the lyric video and the fact that it is being featured on the front page of iTunes is a huge indicator (like MAGIC!'s "Let Your Hair Down" had before being officially announced).

I heard "Numb" a couple of times on the local CHR/Pop station. They jumped on "Dark Horse" while "Unconditionally" was a single, same with "Talk Dirty" when "Marry Me" was a single (in the U.S. "Talk Dirty" was released after "Marry Me").

All Music must be living in a whole different world considering "Chains" was the first single, "Jealous" is the second, and "Teacher" is the third lmao.

For those who have purchased the explicit CD edition, is "Jealous" uncensored or is it the clean version that we already have?

#4 on iTunes; I'm thinking a strong 50k debut is in the cards. Not surprised in the least by this number. At the end of the day, the majority of the music people, like me, are not here for a JoBro, even with three incredibly hot songs. He seems like a nice, earnest guy and I appreciate that and respect that but that Hot 97 interview was pretty much spot on. Those DJs feel the way most people feel about him and don't really take him that seriously. At least he has acting and his looks to fall back on though and I still stan for Jealous, Numb, and Chains. I'll be looking for this album online at some point.

Not to bring up Madonna again (as I did in Nicki's thread) but honestly, nothing surprises me anymore when it comes to gospel choirs co-signing songs after they sang in the blatantly blasphemous Like A Prayer. People will do anything for a paycheck or exposure. I wish the rest of this album was on par with Chains, Jealous, and Numb. I feel kinda mislead with those songs being the preview of the album and hoped the rest of the album would be that hot. This isn't even par with Justin Bieber's Believe and Journals, never mind any CD by Justin Timberlake. Instead, we get something more along the lines of...Mike Posner. Those aforementioned jams elevate the CD about Posner's waste but just barely.

I'm really expecting 30-35k but with all this promo he's been doing and half-naked buzz surrounding him, he might surprise me although I didn't see the album promoted in any weekly circulars and I don't know of any live TV promo for this week. Call me cautiously optimistic.

What has been going on with trade papers? Target didn't have his album advertised or even in stock. I hope they don't have exclusives for the album cause I ordered the deluxe from Amazon.

It looks like all the stores have the album but they just didn't advertise it. The bonus materials on the deluxe edition are the same for all stores. There is a vinyl edition also. The price is a little higher than normal for new releases. None of the local Targets here have it so I will have to order it from Amazon. I might wait a couple of weeks because it might be a Black Friday special so I could order a bunch of CDs at once.

I really wanted to like this. While he is f'n HOT, after listening to a couple of songs, his vocals do absolutely nothing for me. :(

While he's never been a strong singer (that "RED DRESS" squeal from Burnin Up comes to mind...yikes!), I was willing to be on board if he could have sustained the vibe of the pre-release singles for a whole album.

Projected to debut with 35-40k. That is much lower than I hoped for. I was thinking/hoping anywhere from 60-80k. Hopefully it's just a slow start.

So, I just bought the album for 99 CENTS on the Xbox Music Deals app. It was just too good of a deal to pass up. Anyway, I'll post my thoughts here later. I just can't get JEALOUS out of my head!!!
4 days left on this deal if anyone else is interested

I just stumbled in here, there is actually a album coming out? I though he was selling his crotch the entire time.
Just heard Jealous (Gospel Mix) interesting song. I really enjoyed the choir and the live instrumental. Glad he led them carry the song.
