New Release Date for Chris Brown’s Graffiti
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours, Release Dates, R&B / Soul
I’m not sure how a date change would really make a difference in Chris Brown‘s life at this point, but I guess it wouldn’t hurt for him to try.
Although the 20-year-old singer’s upcoming album was originally set for release on December 15, it will now be made available one week earlier.
Why would Chris want Graffiti dropped closer to Rihanna’s own release date (Nov. 23)? Closer to the unveiling of his ex’s 20/20 interview? Who knows? Maybe Jive Records figures it’s best to take advantage of any publicity - good or bad?
Whatever the reason, the CD comes shortly after Brown kicks off a list of performances. He’ll kick off his Fan Appreciation tour in Houston on November 14 and wrap up in New York on December 15.

New Moon Soundtrack in Stores Now
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Release Dates, Alternative, Soundtracks

New Moon‘s soundtrack hit the store shelves today—four days earlier than planned.
According to the CD’s label, the release was rescheduled due “to overwhelming and unprecedented demand.” But a leak of the contents earlier this week probably didn’t help matters.
All 15 tracks - ranging from artists like Muse to Bon Iver - were previously unreleased and exclusive to the Twilight sequel. In fact, many were written after the parties had met with the director and seen the edited film.
As of right now, the Twilight soundtrack still ranks at #77 on the Billboard 200 chart.
New Moon, the movie, opens in theaters on November 20.
