I'm from the UK and have no idea who Jessie J is

^^Maybe. Might be a bit too late for that. Even if they did release a great single before the release. You have to promote and get it played heavily on the radio. And so far BDI doesnt seem to care about singles/single sales/promoting.

I hear a lot of people talk about, I dont care about singles, or singles sales, but the point of a single is to promote how good an album will be. And when your singles arent even charting in the top 40, its hard for word of mouth to start happening. I mean, the single doesnt have to be a number #1, if all the song that they have released so far (FLW, TR, BTL) had just made in the Top 40, that would've given them enough momentum, going into an album release.

Though even the bad charting is not the worse thing for BDI. Its the choice of singles. Singles are meant to promote and when you're not really putting your best foot foward, then what is there really for the general public to be excited about.

I mean you can argue whether single sales really matter or not, but one thing that is hard to argue is the fact they just have not really chosen great songs to release (whether they were official singles or not). They still will probably be in the Top 5, but I really do feel like they would've at least had a better chance at #1, if the choice of released songs and promoting would've been better.
