davidcook.jpgAn update on David Cook’s album sales: “It sold 885 copies this week (all digital), or about half of what would be required to make the digital albums chart.” Which means, I guess, that Cook doesn’t count as a “new artist” by SoundScan standards, since he didn’t appear on that 150-album chart either (No. 150, Tierra Cali’s Enamorado De Ti, sold about 600 copies). And as a side note, David Cook hater Roger Friedman has moved on to mumbling about the greatness of the Carly Hennessy album, saying that she’s taken an “odd route” to the Idol stage. [Earlier]

    Of course, the punch line is that if someone at Universal Music woke up, they could start promoting “Ultimate High” the way they did Amy Winehouse. It’s that good.

    Maura, care to comment?

    Didn’t Josiah sell way more records than that on his MySpace page?

    @extracrispy: Yeah, but that is mostly related to Josiah being good and Carly sucking shit.

    Roger Friedman is a douche-tool. And a hypocrite.
