Sugarland's album is better than Miley's album.

There, I said it.

P.S. I still stand with my prediction that Miley will get a BNA nom from Grammy this year.

I know that in a world flooded with Lil Wayne freestyles, the whole idea of balancing supply and demand has gone out the window, but is it possible that after releasing a double album, a remix album and a live album in the space of a year, there's not really that much voracious demand for a new CD from her at the moment?

I guess Sugarland's appropriation of Wayne's hamster ball is working its magic.

So who is Kanye and who is 50 Cent in this analogy? I'm going with Miley=Fitty.

If Sugarland pulls this off, it'd be the biggest album-chart upset since...well, I can't think of a similar upset that was both close and unexpected. Maybe New Edition's 1996 comeback album taking No. 1 over R.E.M.'s post-Warner-ripoff-deal New Adventures in Hi-Fi? I believe that was a close one.

@Chris Molanphy: If I were any good at Photoshop-fakery, I'd mock up a fake RS cover with Miley and Jennifer Nettles in a stare-down for the ages.

But, I won't even try, because my version would just look like Miley's mom saying "EAT YOUR BROCCOLI!!!", with Miley saying, "SCREW YOU! I'M THE BREAD-WINNER IN THIS FAMILY!!!"

P.S. Jennifer Nettles is a strong supporter of poverty-relief causes -- and register-to-vote causes -- so, for this purpose, I'm perfectly fine being on Team Sugarland.

That pic makes Miley look like an amputee cheerleader. Good on you!

@Al Shipley: Miley freestyling over "A Milli" FTW!

@Rob Murphy: How long before we get a deluxe version of Breakout with some feat. Lil Wayne remix? I say three months tops.
