Albums Now]]> georgeshouldstartlookingintosomejustformen.jpgGeorge Strait seems lined up for the top on next week's album sales chart, but it seems like depressing me with an appearance on Today earlier this week paid off for R.E.M.—Accelerate will likely grab the No. 2 spot, according to the occasionally reliable projections over at HITS. The Matt Lauer-introduced clip, as well as more chart wonkery, below the cut.



George Strait's success continues a remarkable chart run for a guy who seems nice enough and is liked a lot by my wife, somewhat to my puzzlement. The last five Strait albums have hit No. 1, with eighteen of his albums reaching the pinnacle over all. Meanwhile, the totally abysmal R.E.M. disc Around the Sun didn't even go gold, although if Accelerate's projected sales total of around 100,00 copies holds up, getting a plaque eventually seems likely.

In other projection news,Idolator favorite Trina will have a solid showing for an album I had forgotten about, selling a projected 50,000 copies; the Scorsese/Rolling Stones soundtrack Shine A Light at 35,000 for now, with weekend sales likely to boost that total; and somehow 25,000 people thought purchasing a Theory Of A Deadman disc would make their lives better.

In your "this industry is screwed" note of the week, sales are projected to be down 16% from this time last year, and are already off 11% year to date. In somewhat related news, I am thinking of signing up to learn air conditioning repair.

AND HOES DONT GET NO RESPECT!!!!!! PUPPETTTTTT!!!!" Harsh! Looks like the vicious feud between sexually demanding rappers Khia and Trina didn't end in 2006. Khia, author of "My Neck, My Back" and ringer on VH1's upcoming Miss Rap Supreme, went to Target Tuesday and bought Trina's new CD, Still Da Baddest, just so she could give it a track by track review (hopefully the only one that will mock Trina's '06 miscarriage and contain the phrase "I OUGHT TO TAKE OFF MY BIG RED CLOWN SHOE AND KICK U IN UR BIG BOBBLE HEAD!!!!!!!!").

Trina Single Provides Flimsy Excuse To Talk About Trina]]> thealwaysclassytrina.jpgIf a blog somewhere mentions a new Trina track, you can be assured that it will mentioned in this space by your guest editor. I get the feeling Cake & Ice Cream only posted the Trina's "Look Back At Me" to use some wire photos they had laying around of Kenyon Martin's birthday party, but still, the criminally underappreciated label Slip-N-Slide deserves whatever virtual ink it can garner, especially if it means I can present you with "Pull Over" from her first album, Da Baddest Bitch.

Trina's new disc, cleverly titled Still The Baddest, should be released at some point in February, but after the disappointment of 2006's Glamorest Life, it feels a little like the glory days have passed us Trina fans by, as she appears on nearly every remix aimed at the Miami market from "Wipe Me Down" to "Lip Gloss" and the law of diminishing returns sets in. Diamond Princess, we'll always have the memories, if nothing else.
