I think 27,000 copies of a Christian album is pretty respectable in that field...

Nothing wrong with not being a big seller. Love her album!

God bless this forum for bumping the thread of an American Idol contestant not discussed for 15 years. I love it.

She may have came in 9th, but she sold 900k+ albums. It’s most likely 1 million but her sales haven’t been updated in roughly a decade. Her sales are higher than several idol alumni that had significant mainstream hits.

She's struggled for so long... I hate that the CCM world kept being like "YoU'Re An OVeRCOMER" and a "ComEBAcK KiD" etc with every release like damn let the girl go through her shit without having a "JESuS HeAlEd ME" story... It's so sad how much pressure is put in that world to continue to "keep going" when sometimes you need to just break and have peeps be there for you... not just "pray" but be there...

The musical tribute for Mandisa will air on American Idol this Monday night, April 29th.
Colton Dixon, Danny Gokey & Melinda Doolittle will all be a part of it!

It's gonna be interesting what they will do outside of Overcomer (she has WAY better songs!) as it's the "Mainstream" one peeps know...
(Good Morning too)

I get that you have a vendetta against Christianity and use every opportunity you get on this board to rally against it, but it gets a little...weird when you are talking about a Christian artist, a person who held their faith and love of Jesus very close to her heart. If you are a Mandisa fan, you should know that this is not a narrative or agenda she would appreciate. Anyway, my heart breaks for her and how badly she struggled, but at least she is at peace now. |
