How Did Usher's "Here I Stand" Fare On Day 1 of Sales?

"Here I Stand" hit the shelves May 27th with sales numbering 146,000 at the close of business. Unlike his 2004 ultimate cd "Confessions", which sold around 1.1 million within the first week and spent nine weeks at the top of the Billboard charts. "Confessions" was the 21st best selling album of the Nielsen SoundScan era according to Billboard Magazine. I used to be an avid Usher fan, but he's has really fallen off in my eyes. Maybe it's all the tomfoolery him and Meka-Boo have been doing, or maybe he just doesn't have that swag anymore! Who knows, and who cares!
