Making It Rain on Them Hoes

Posted by Bossip Staff

Aliciakeus1album

Alicia Keys sold 742,000 copies of her #1 album “As I Am” this week, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The #2 album only sold 223K. AK is doing it big on pure talent, no gimmicks and sexed-up marketing.

More signs that it’s time for the old man to retire, American Gangster plummeted to #8 with a 70% decrease to 131K. Don’t feel bad for Camel, his checks are never going to stop coming in.

    Congrats Alicia. That’s what happens when an artist puts out REAL and timeless music.

  2. John

    Good things happening for this beautiful lady. Love you Alicia

  3. Jus Another Opinion

    Got Damnnnnnnnnnnnn Alicia you go girl. Make it rain baby. You see ppl its not just Bossip bloggers that are tired of Jayonce and their greediness and over exposed *****es, Jay and Beyonce together didn’t sell more than Alicia!!! LOL

    Not to take away from you miss Keys, you are talented and beautiful, you go girl. Just to go out on the limb I still believe it was the Knowles camp that put out the story(you know they play dirty *coughs* Kelly and the VIBE cover) of Alicia not performing at the night club cause they didn’t have her money well folks it back fired cause Alicia still went GOLD her 1st week!!

  4. wonkwonk

    stop hatin on ” Jayonce ” . Why are they even on your mind? This is about Alicia – she showed out, so lift her up instead of trying to tear some one else down.

  5. Jus Another Opinion

    I agree with the blogger who said good things happen to folks who put out real music. Alicia and Kanye are leading the way. Now we just need to get Musiq Soulchild, Life, Maxwell and India Arie on board and we are on our way!!!

  6. TT

    @ Jus Another Opinion

    AMEN TO THAT!

  7. Bahama Mama

    Go head miss Keys!! do ur thang. I don’t have ur album but from those numbers a whole lotta people do!!

  8. Bahama Mama

    JAO-

    and what does Jay-z make?? according to u?

  9. bria

    This CD is really good. If gives you that late 70′ early 80’s feel to it. It is just great.

  10. Jus Another Opinion

    @ wonk wonk

    Did you miss the memo? Over exposed and greediness and their stans (stalker/fans is why I can’t stand them. Who said I was hating, I was being real, just like the folks that went and bought that Alicia album. The glitter dresses and fakeness and Tina and Matthew Knowles are what is bad for the music industry. The industry should be about the music so if your GIRL ain’t bringing it don’t say I’m hating!! Now its time for Mary J to come out and I will be supporting her! So hate on that!!

  11. Bahama Mama

    and Bossip

    this was bout Alicia, why even bring Hov into this??

  12. Jus Another Opinion

    @ Bahama Mama

    I never said Jay-Z was a bad artist. His best line to me in the song “A DREAM” is “No one built like you, you designed yourself” His ***** is just greedy and I see him as a wannabe just to get hood credit. As much as you are on Bossip for you to even ask me a question like that???? Everybody in main stream media has been telling Jay to retire, go out a legend enjoy your millions. But no he want’s to embarr***** himself like Mike did when he came back in the league. *shrugs*

  13. Jus Another Opinion

    I think he need to go and fix the mess he made at Def Jam…take a back seat!

    I’m sure the guy who writes this stuff *****s to her picture…Guess what she doesn’t even know you are alive punk.

    Jus Another Opinion

    Since I am bored at work I’ll respond.

    EVERYBODY in showbiz is greedy to some extent that’s why they are in the biz.I do have the American Gangster c.d and I can tell you at least my opinion of it, it’ in his top 4, hell maybe even top 3 of his collection. But only people that dislike him and MJ (GREATNESS) will remember their failure’s.

    *shrugs*

    and as for DEF jam yea he’s the pres. but the pres. has vice presidents and cabinet members, When things don’t go right you can’t just blame him.

  17. Jus Another Opinion

    @ Bahama Mama

    Well since I have a paid holiday off from my job I will respond to your comment. Down play the Jay-Z stuff all you want, others at Def Jam agree with me! Until then I am sticking to what I said!

  18. Bahama Mama

    JAO

    That’s nice!

  19. Mahogany

    I’ll take the guy in the background with his mouth ajar…….that’s a good look.

    :)

    Oh and Alicia is the truth, we all know that.

  20. Doc-2-B

    i love a keys and she deserves all this success and more. but as some others have mentioned, why mention jay-z and beyonce at all? we complain that they are overexposed but we talk about them all the time (i’m one of those people so i’m not criticizing, just making a point). american gangster is not a bad album, better than kingdom come (which i also liked), and jay-z will go platinum regardless of this 70% sales drop. can’t we be happy that a black man tied elvis’s record for #1 albums? as far as beyonce…I’M SICK OF HER ***** AND APPARENTLY SHE OWNS BET TOO…THEY’RE SHOWING THE BEYONCE EXPERIENCE DVD CONCERT TONIGHT AND THE REST OF THE WEEK. See, I just have her overexposed ***** more attention/advertisement. See how this all works? She doesn’t mind it at all. And honestly, I may even watch it LOL

    Happy Thanksgiving!

  21. usmarine

    Congrats to her but just like every other artist, her album will drop 50 -75 percent next week. It’s not a Beyonce or Jay-z thing, it’s a music industry thing.

    Happy Thanksgiving

  22. Sick & Tired of Jus another opinon, who is in dire need of some *****!

    Please give your keyboard a *****ing rest, cuz you got a bad case of the Kansas City *****-Simples.

  23. Its6amHoGetOut

    Alicia is still fine and talented as *****, but me being me, I have a problem with those fat ***** ankles, big ***** calves and her toes look kinda suspect in that picture, oh yeah lipo on her arms wouldnt hurt either.

  24. Sick & Tired of Jus another opinon, who is in dire need of some *****!

    Yo! 6am, they need your wisdom on that Malinda Williams and D-Nice joint on the next page.

  25. Fly Young Lady

    Good for her!! That is proof once and for all that sex isnt the only thing that sells these days.

  26. Jus Another Opinion

    @ Sick and Tired

    ^^^ Not even funny. I comment on post, and why you even want to take it personally and get so emotional over what I say on a blog is beside me. You honestly don’t understand how that makes me feel of all the ppl that post on her you remember stuff about me, my life and where I stay, cause I don’t remember what everybody else’s says so for you to pick me out… that says alot even if you don’t want to admit it! By the way how do you know I’m on here all the time, unless you are as well, look at you hiding under another screen name you are just pathetic!! Remember this if you don’t remember anything else “Those who take a stand leave a mark. I speak how I feel and I don’t jump on bandwagons so get yourself together and take your own advice and give your keyboard a rest!

  27. Sick & Tired of Jus another opinon, who is in dire need of some *****!

    Yeah, you right about that. The last thing i think about is sex with that soon to be as fat as Aretha Frankln dyke suspect.

  28. Jus Another Opinion

    Any man that disses Alicia is probably in need of some ***** himself. Hence Sick and Tired

    You don’t faze me nicca, cause I am not the only one who frequents Bossip. Like I said you just don’t know how it makes me feel to know that of all the ppl on Bossip you pick me out!! Yeah Niggga!

  29. Ashley

    I am so proud of her. she’s killing it. and she has the #1 single on Hot 100. Actually, she’s number 1 on 14 charts right now!!! yall ain’t knowing lol!

  30. Amani

    Congrats to Alicia she will be around for years to come.


  31. Damn she is looking good !!! Congrats on the album sales.

  32. kai

    First off what the HELL does Jay z and Beyonce have to do with Ms. Keys? She is talented in her own right and she probably doesnt give a good damn what they do and that is what makes her who she is. She is no Prince, but shes a modern day legend to the silly music industry as it is today. 742K is a lot of sales its hard to believe she had that many .

  33. The Real Holiday ***** Kick'n

    Good for A. Keys on her success! But, I gotta mention that her feet do look horrible!! And I agree w/ 6am Alicia has 40 yr old woman arms- yuck!

  34. Unkle Kracka

    Yeah conciderin she aint no selene deeon or that yungun holly montana, but you niggras can chalk up her talent to the white side of her haratage, lord nos the black side of her would probaly have her doin that damn niggra rap.

  35. kai

    UK SHADDDUP LOL!!!! Soul does not come from “Caucasianism”….

  36. EffYou

    I see why most artists now a days will NEVER have the longevity as artists back in the day.Soon as people reach a certain height in their career,people start crying for them to retire. WHY ? Notice yall didn’t speak about his talent as the reason he should retire,but his record sales. The list of rappers we even have left that are halfway decent is already slim,so why are we pushing for them to stop rappin ?? Once Jay does hang it up,it’s just gonna be another rapper to take his spot that people start crying about how they need to retire.

    Them rock n roll bands can do drugs,and all types of other crazy *****,and they STILL get love n support from their fans.If britney spears album came out right now,i bet you she’ll still go Platinum in less than a month.Alicia Keys got a couple more albums to go before she starts gettin Beyonce’d too. It’s *****ed up we do that to our people

  37. crest

    good job alicia you have sold more than rihanna has all year. jay z and def jam are buying awards for rihanna and spending money on videos and alicia has made more money for her record label than rihanna so im glad true talent is rising to the top in record sales.

  38. Unkle Kracka

    @ kai

    I beg ta’ diffa’, elvis, pat boone and berry manilow

  39. Jemima

    I don’t understand why Jay-z should retire. Why is it that singers can continue until they die (James Brown) but rappers need to retire before middle age? He’s making money and a great success. Why should he settle for where he is when he can go even higher?

  40. veesky

    Yeah, putting out a cl*****ic and critically acclaimed album is a sign you should retire…Bossip never ceases to amaze me with the amount of Haterade running through their site. Just because he experienced a sales drop, this album was clearly one whose quality would not be based on commercial success.

  41. OLA

    AK is a great artist and deserves EVERYTHING she gets BUT if u seriously think HOV should retire u must be out ur mind. AMERICAN GANGSTER was amazing, lyrically dude is on another level only biggie and nas could reach.

    ‘he’s off the wall/ them other *****s is tito’ …shout out 2 randy


  42. Wow! That number mean something…

  43. OLA

    @ EFFYOU

    britney spears did jus put out an album and it went WOOD LOLOL

  44. Neeks

    this is honestly alicia’s best album to date. every song here truly has meaning and you can listen to the entire cd from beginning to end which is very rare now a days. i am sooooo happy for her and can only say that it’s about time she came back and showed em what she was made of! she is gonna do big things this year. on that note…did anyone see her on the AMA’s?!?!??! I ABSOLUTELY LOVED her performance!!!

  45. Ashley

    young, who the hell is Holly Montana?? lmao!!

  46. yapz

    *****in haters. why does this have to be about beyonce. you cant metion her when its something positive but when its negative yall can scream her name as loud as possible.

    2nd how is it that jay has to retire with numbers like that but kanye droped 70% the second week also. thats called hating on someone. yall some funny acting people on this site.

  47. Bella

    Congrats to Alicia!!!

    Jay will be alright. I read on Wikipedia that he’s worth over $500 million dollars! More than Russell Simmons. He’ll be alright. LOL!!

  48. Whatchaknoaboutdat?

    Alicia is very talented and her cd rocks!!!

    Good job A.K!!!

  49. fjiehls

    She is so gorgeous. I have seen her photo on a celebrity and millionaire dating site named searchingmillionaire.com. Many men winked at her there.

  50. bubbz

    yeeeeeeeah aaaaaah a 70% drop in sales is the norm with all music. AK has hella style and can play the piano but she can’t sing…seriously folks…she’s got the emotion game on lock but all that damn screaming…aaaaaaayeee

  51. reddnwood

    LOL>>>Shame on you HENNY BOSSIP! It’s so clear that you luv 2 hate on Bey & Jay but you’ll probably do the same when AK slips for real! Such is life!

    The Knowles, TAKE NOTE!!!

  55. mel

    get off his *****……………….

  56. VB

    why should jay-z retire?cos he didnt do alicia numbers?he has never done alicia nmbers .she has always sold more records per album.but guess who has sold more records total and still doing it 11 yrs later?thats right hova.so what he dropped to number eight .thats what happend to every hov album and he still sells platnum.mark my words he would outsell alicia keys overall.

    why should a rapper have to retire but singers can stay till they eighty .jay-z is the only rapper of relevance left(kanye is not a real rapper so he does not count and even he needs jays *****ociation to sell records)

    p.s alicia keys is NOT talented .yes she plays the piano but then again so do i.its nuthing.she does not write her songs (krucial keys ,kerry brothers does)she does not produce her music (krucial does ) and this album was written for her by other people so why is she any more talented than say rihanna or ameria or any of those other lightskinned female?her singles suck ,her albums all suck (yes i said it i bought her last two and they were weed plates)so i dont even know why she sells records .oh yes i remeber .she is a lighgtskinned girl with a piano.

  57. rzah

    Alicia is gunning for superstar status she just doesnt talk about in interviews like other female artist in her age range do. She took off the pants and started wearing sexy dresses to help her achieve the attention needed to get parts in movies album sales,etc. She does have the talent to back it up and the public is thirsty for an entertainer that works out all catagories. Her looks are part of her success but a smaller part than the rest of the pack. I love her and wish her continued growth and success in the show business industry.

  58. rzah

    Alicia is intelligent and talented and an *****et to the music industry. What would we do without her? She always displays depth and cl***** with her public image and doesn’t pander to the lowest common denominator. Yes, she has thick ankles but if you want to look at thin ankles or any other body parts go to another girl act tryin’ get noticed.

  59. Brenda

    I don’t know what you all are talking about? Jay Z’s American Gangster is off the hook. That’s a bad album. As for Beyonce, she is doing her own thing in her own way. She had a great year and a fabulous tour. Bee got paid and I am sure she is happy for Alicia.

  60. reddnwood

    THANK YOU BRENDA!!!!

  61. Delta Diva

    Why must we constantl compare Alicia and Beyonce, they are TWO DIFFERENT ARTISTS!!!!! Anywayz,in my opinion, Alicia has def. been sexing up her style more than she used to, I don’t care what no one says, she has, just look at the pics. She is still talented, I agree with most…..So Congrats to her!

  62. NubianGoddez

    Making It Rain on Them Hoes indeed lol

  63. Yung Tone

    honestly the people who does the captions, hell even the girl who did the dame dash interview tries to put down jay-z every chance they get and says there jus speaking there mind well it seems that hes on there minds quite a lot but anywayz yea alicia keys sexy ***** deserves this definitly she has pure talent

  64. reddnwood

    Ever notice how it’s okay for HENNY BOSSIP to use certain words like “HOES’ but if a rapper or anyone else that’s a BLACK MALE IN PARTICULAR utters it then ALL BLACK MALES ARE SYSTEMATIC HUNTED DOWN & SHOT BY THE SISTAHOOD?! ONE DAY THE LORD SAID MY PEOPLE WILL WAKE UP!!!

    We love Alicia over in the kingdom- she is a true star with real talent and can be appreciated on several levels- Alicia you bring the words “cl*****”, “talent” and “individuality” back into this industry. You have come out just in time and spared my sanity. Thank you

  71. alfans33

    She is awesome! A few days ago, I saw her ablum released on her personal blog at the celeb and millionaire club millionairecupid.com. I love it very much.

  72. John

    Somebody had too much turkey and turned grouchy and Full!!

  73. Prince Donte

    whats the deal with Jay Z it was his 10th album to hit #1 tieing with Elvis and as him being a hip hop artist is a real good look why don’t you celbrate that when a ***** does good it is not repoted but when it’s bad it’s everywhere it’s ashame you dumb ***** black people don’t surport each other but want to make each other look like uneducated *****s what ashame people buy into bossip’s propaganda

  74. dayg715

    jay-z does not have 10 #1 albums. he has 10 albums, but only 4 of them hit #1.

  75. dayg715

    as far as alicia keys goes, it is clearly obvious that she is a real star, with real talent. why do people always wanna throw freakin’ beyonce’s name around like she’s the biggest star on the planet? alicia has more #1 albums, more hits, more grammys, and WAY bigger record sales. why isn’t she getting the same *****-kissing treatment that beyonce does?

  76. dayg715

    and who said doing anything that compares to elvis is a big achievement?

  77. just ice

    but in all fairness, although alicia didn’t ***** it up like the rest of the females in the industry, she did have to sex it up just a bit to get noticed. her albums sales started getting bigger once her image changed. and i agree about joe camel. so he tied with elvis. SO WHAT. elvis is not God. he was nothing more than the 50’s version of timberfake. a man with less than mediocre talent who made his name biting off the way more talented black man of the time (jackie wilson).

  78. just ice

    there’s one every generation.

  79. Mrs

    Princess Donte- I’m not the only one to big up Alicia on how gorgeous and talented she is on this blog, so that really doesn’t hold no weight in this particular example. Chose a less liked celeb. (A comment on one follows below) to generalise black people on their hating of one another.

    day715- Because she isn’t flicking her hair around in a made trance and rolling on the floor like she is pocessed and liking her fingers at the camera and *****ing her batty out! sex sells!

    Alicia leona are the ones from this generation

  80. Just Sit And Be Pretty

    Not surprised. She’s a real musician and her CD is great.

  81. binary star

    JAO – I would define hating as going to a post about Alicia Keys and talking about how much Beyonce sucks.

    As for attacking you because you’re a woman – how the hell would I know you were a woman? All I know is you’re a spaz and I find you hilarious.

  82. wonkwonk

    Just ice, I agree. Alicia did change her image, becoming more feminine; but, while it may have had to do with industry pressure to be more “sexy”, it may also reflect her own ‘coming of age’ from a shy little tom boy to a confidant young woman, as she has suggested herself. After a certain age, you just have to let some things go.

    Speaking of which, for those who can’t keep Beyonce’s name out their mouth, hate is not a good look on grown folk. Lmao

  83. Jus Another Opinion

    What Binary star you are on here just as much as I am probably not lately(cause you are not new) but you be on hear and everybody knows my story hence (Danielle Steel). Like I said before you attacked me for a joke/seriousiness but you have ppl like 6am and other men who say far worse than I do but I don’t see you attacking them. You and others like you are a eff coward. You will always be seen as something less in my eyes cause you let the nicca on here run this site and say whatever they want too! I will say whatever I want on this site so get used to it. Speaking of hating I gave ms Keys her props so what are you talking about as far as bringing up Beyonce you brung her up more than I have obviously you are a stan, cause I didn’t hear you say anything about them dissing Alicia ankles, like you and the others who are too eff scared to talk that shyt to these nicca that be on here…crawl in the corner!

  84. arasiam

    You mean she did’nt have to show off her ***** and go to jail and get pregnant and go to rehab and , and, and _____________

    You go AK, keep on keepin’ it real. You are a REAL role model.

  85. Lady Architect

    Go Alicia Keys…that album is fire!…I’m so happy for her.

  86. binary star

    JAO – Please don’t have a stroke at the keyboard before I’m done getting my LOL’s off you.

    As far a beyonce goes, The one time I brought her up was when I was quoting you. I’ve never owned a beyonce album so I’d make a terrible stan.

    What’s the opposite of a stan, anyway? Oh yeah – that’s just a plain old stalker. That’s what you are. You probably hang out at her house with a copy of “Catcher in the Rye” in your back pocket.

    Obviously I come to this site but I don’t come here to know about your life so no – I don’t know you or your story – but best believe I will stay tuned from now on because you crack me up.

    And let’s be clear – i never ‘attacked’ you. I only said your comment sounded crazy as hell.

    ps. Alicia Keys doesn’t need me to defend the honor of her cankles. LOL. You are wild and i don’t hate you – I LOVE YOU!!!!


  87. Go Alicia, it’s ya birthday!!! Although I don’t have any of her albums, but that means nothing, I don’t have a lot of peoples albums I have been following for over 15 years LOL. But I like her hits and her image and standpoint and she doesn’t sound like an airhead in interviews lol.

    @ Bahama Mama

    I never said Jay-Z was a bad artist. His best line to me in the song. His ***** is just greedy and I see him as a wannabe just to get hood credit. As much as you are on Bossip for you to even ask me a question like that???? Everybody in main stream media has been telling Jay to retire, go out a legend enjoy your millions. But no he want’s to embarr***** himself like Mike did when he came back in the league. *shrugs*

    ^^^^^^^^

    Me too. Till the Blueprint Vol 1 I was the BIGGEST Jay-Z fan on the westcoast!!! Do you know how HARD it was to be a Jay-Z fan back in 1996???

    I have grown to see Jay-Z for who he really is…. A FAKE. A VERY selfish man. A COLLECTOR of fine things and a black man that really wants to be white on SO many levels. And because he is the way he is, he is PARANOID that someone is gonna come and take it all away. Why, I believe it’s because he hasn’t gained it all honestly. I ain’t talking bout his money cuz NO ONE knows how much he or any of these rappers/celebs REALLY have. NET WORTH is MUCH DIFFERENT from your actual liquid *****ests and what he can get his hands on to spend.

    Bottom line, when you have to use SOMEONE ELSES LIFE, to come even CLOSE to the appeal you had when you first came out….IT’S TIME TO HANG IT UP *****!!! It ain’t about age, or how many skills you posses….YOUR REACHING and it’s embarracing and pathetic to watch so I stopped watching.

    Nov 22, 2007 – 1:18 pm

    ^^^^^^^^^^^

    Bahama Mama

    and Bossip

    this was bout Alicia, why even bring Hov into this??

    ^^^^^^^

    To be fair to them, it’s because he was #1 last week and now Alica is???? EVERYONE reported how he was #1 or gonna be #1 last week so it’s only right to report who took his spot only a week later.

    But #8???? Dayum Jay….Universal should have bought more albums cuz sales from your remaining fans are a done deal ITunes or NOT LOL!!!!


  88. Nov 22, 2007 – 5:03 pm veesky

    Yeah, putting out a cl*****ic and critically acclaimed album is a sign you should retire…Bossip never ceases to amaze me with the amount of Haterade running through their site.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    Critically ACCLAIMED???GTFOH??? The critics YOU have been reading have acclaimed him, but the ones I have read are either 50/50 about it or just plain ol’ say he REACHING!!!!

    You must have been reading the Bossip criticism because all of the majors (Rolling Stone, Vibe, XXL, Source, All Hip Hop and anybody else) have been saying AG maybe the Rap album of the year.

  91. Sterling Black

    @ Coop

    That’s only because the artistic and creativity bar has been lowered due to the proliferation of southern rap *****…Hell Vanilla Ice could put out something that would be considered genius in comparison to Soulja Boy, UGK, et al.

  92. 600pounds

    Dam, I’m a trip. Tell me WHY Beyonce, Alicia Keys, Halle B, and Lauren London are considered good looking? I’m no ‘hater’ so retire the word and upgrade your vocab. Beauty is subjective but these people I’ve mentioned are average at best, especially Alicia and Halle. I feel like rantin’ so let it be. I think some of y’all are color stuck, as if being ‘bright’ is right. I have no problems w/ light skinned, in fact Vanessa Williams, C*****ie, K.D. Aubert all kill the mentioned above any day. Wake up not all brights are right. Beauty is in all shades.*waiting for some1 to say hater*…


  93. Alicia Keys-GOOD JOB!!!

    Your right, my bad. My response was pointing out that there was no comparison, but true say it’s about this younge lady. Everyone i know is going to BUY the album- which is very unusual – we actually want her to get our money and our credit.

    I don’t think ur a hater. but u do seem to have a color complex. if you think the only reason anyone thinks they are attractive is because they “bright” Thats kinda sad actually. Sanna Lathan, Gabrielle Union Kelly Rowland all beautiful. beauty comes in all different colors. I guess i was just raised to look beyond what society tries to deem the standard.

    i am a fan of alicia keys, and i will say that she’s pretty sometimes and sometimes she’s not. when she’s made up nicely, she’s beautiful, but she has a lazy eye and a wierd grin she flaunts around.

    out of all the girls mentioned, i think gabby union is the most gorgeous one.

    halle berry is nothing special, sorry.

    Wow my girl doin it big real big! Alicia is really getting better with time. This CD is her largest debut for that to happen during this time when music isn’t selling is huge! She deserves these sales cause it’s not just a gimmick the CD is really great 1-14 with no skipping! If you don’t have it you are truly missing out on some good music.

  102. S*****y

    Alica Keys is pure talent! Her album is the work of a genius. This album has helped me through a tough time already. Alicia is the best true artist out right now.

    I wish the ignorant people on this site would go take a nap.

    Now now ladies and gents – be civil to one another.


  104. Real musical talent triumphs! Yay! You go, Alicia!
