^ No, it's in most cases. I can only think of two "veterans" as of late who have been able to sell based on name value alone - Britney and Eminem. Everybody else has had to promote, promote, promote to shift units.

He's sort of a mess on Today Show's concert series... but I love him. The album is decent. I mostly bought it because I love "I Like It."

Great album, hope truly that it does well. He's never really sold these latest albums that well, to which I think are his best stuff.
Does anybody have any record sale details on the albums 7 and Insomniac? Or link to a website where I could see their US sales?

I hope "Dirty Dancing" or "Heartbeat" is his second Pop single!

I think he has a chance for his album to do well, if his next couple of singles are hits like the one he has out now. It's good to see him getting a hit single. He's a talented artist.

Dirty Dancer is really his only chance at another hit in the US.

I'm in a love-hate relationship with Heartbeat. I don't prefer to listen to it, nor do I put it on because I like it; but, I never skip it, and will sing the chorus for hours after I listen to it.

I think "Heartbeat" is one of the most beauiful songs I've heard in quite some time, though it's a tad bit too repetitive. That piano chord really stands out throughout the song, which really adds to the song. Enrique and Nicole sound great together. But then, I like his voice and Nicole just sings so beautifully anyways.
The video is ok. Interesting, kinda slow though, like the song. Nicole looks good as always.

Why the hell hasn't another single been released? Does his management always find a way to sabotage his momentum? I mean that's dumb. U want to send the Akon track, the Scherzinger track, the Usher track, anything that's fine but do it fast!@!

I just have to say that this is one of my favorite albums this year. I would support 80% of the songs on this album as singles.

This is the problem with his team, he'll have a smashs single then his team/label will fall back on his promo. He needs a new single and video/promo now.

I'm happy he has at least had great success with his singles Me too. Although I cringe at the thought of him working with other singers/artists/rappers who are of the moment, but if they can help him get back in the fickle door of Pop radio, it's okay and we have to accept it. That may allow him to have a greater shot at success with a solo release in the future (hopefully).
