1983? oh ik it was thriller

@dafuq6595 @LilJuMadeDaBeat @freakodress @queer4lali it blew up after motown 25. late march to dec. 31 would have it at 40 million copies sold. the 32m makes sense, especially because it’s not counting countries that were smuggling copies of thriller and selling them like crazy which would probs take it to 40m+ that year alone

@LilJuMadeDaBeat @freakodress @queer4lali Wait but thriller sold around 32 million copies in 1983 and yet there's 52 weeks in a year?

why this random man handing me his popcorn?

New international film posters for the Michael Jackson biopic. Out April 24th in the U.S.

@SabrinaWantYou @Quote31490249 this is michael jackson we’re talking about. he died before streaming became a thing yet he’s a streaming juggernaut. he sells over 1m+ albums a year in the us alone and has been bringing in hundreds of millions of $ a year since 2009. this movie is very capable of doing 1b+, lol

@Quote31490249 look i would love for mike to do these numbers thats my goat i jus think we gon disappoint ourselves expecting them typa numbers from a biopic in 2026. if its not a sequel, remake, or marvel , 1.5. kinda wild

AMC Lincoln added a second early IMAX screening for Michael today due to the sales of the first showing & tickets are moving very fast in a short time. This looks like another sellout coming. Unreal, if this demand holds internationally then 1.6-2B is in play

EARLY ACCESS TICKETS. ON SALE TOMORROW.

@quintaldofunk nothing about this movie gives ai, lmao

esse filme cheira a IA

Willie Mae “Big Mama” Thornton was a blues singer and songwriter whose recordings of “Hound Dog” and “Ball ‘n’ Chain” later were transformed into huge hits by Elvis Presley and Janis Joplin. She was born on December 11, 1926 outside of Montgomery in rural Ariton, Alabama. Her father was a Baptist minister and her mother was a church singer in his congregation. Thornton’s mother died when the singer was 14, and she left home to pursue a career as an entertainer. She joined the Georgia-based Hot Harlem Revue as an accomplished singer, drummer, and harmonica player and spent seven years as a regular performer throughout the South. Following her years as a traveling blues singer, Thornton moved to Houston in 1948 to begin her recording career. In Houston, Thornton joined Don Robey’s Peacock Records in 1951, often working closely with fellow label artist Johnny Otis. One of Thornton’s earliest and most popular recorded tracks was “Hound Dog,” initially released by Peacock in 1953. Thornton’s version of “Hound Dog” topped the R&B charts for seven weeks and sold over two million copies nationwide. Though the song brought acclaim to Thornton, it only yielded her about $500. The song became even more popular as Elvis Presley’s first hit record in 1956.
