MJ's ' Xscape' debuts at #1

The King of Pop - Michael Jackson's 'Xscape' Opus becomes his Seventh #1 album, just edging out The Black Keys for the #1 coveted position. It was the closest race for the #1 position in recent years, Jackson's 'Xscape' sold 161,909 units, about 500 more copies than the Black Keys 'Turn Blue' project. L.A, Reid curated this masterpiece, though not the opening numbers of his other posthumous CD 'Michael' back in 2011, which sold a healthy 200,000 plus copies in its debut week. For us fans its a bittersweet moment, while yes we're happy for the new music, but we would be MUCH happier if Michael were still here, producing his brilliant Epics. His record label and Estate are the ones who are benefitting the most, thats the travesty of this release. Personally with that being said, I think 'Xscape' is a very solid project through and through, its a lovely throwback to the '80's when he ruled the charts and could do no wrong. #foreverlovingMJ
