CD buyers made a declaration last week, and it was that they'd rather buy Disturbed's Indestructible, NOW 28, Usher's Here I Stand, and Weezer's new album than Ashanti's The Declaration, which sold 86,000 copies in it's first week. This mostly before the buzz created by her "gotchagram," so maybe she'll benefit from the controversy on next week's charts. Her last album, 2005's Concrete Rose, sold 254,000 in its first week.
