SOME are holographic, some aren't.

 

Mine alas is not :(

 

It IS out this week. Ooooh @ Jo Whiley playing it :o

 

That should set her up for Radio 1 play when the song comes nearer to being released.

 

The CD's really nice, no slip out case like with "Arular" but really pretty art, especially on the inside :wub:

Did Arular chart in the Top 200 albums at all?

 

Where do we think this one will get too?

"Arular" never went top 200 as far as I'm aware, could be wrong of course.

 

No idea for this one, top 50 at best?

What's the case like? Is it like the Arular one?

 

No slip case and no holograph on mine but I love the artwork, and it says it was designed by MIA in the booklet.

#5 on Electronic iTunes Top Albums

 

BUT it's right behind Paul Van Dyke who is #99 on Overall Top Albums. So she should enter pretty soon!!! :D

Thats Good ^^^ :o

 

Got my copy today :wub: Artwork is Excellent! was surprised to see the Picture of Madonna on the Car :lol:

 

But yes, album stunning :wub:

 

I hope it goes Top 75! :P

#75 on iTunes Top Albums :)

Top 40 in mids :dancing:

Great news!!! There's lots of articles about her in magazines and supplements this week like Q and The Guardian so it looks like they're giving it some decent promo. Hopefully Jimmy will make the album a staple in the top 40 albums! :D

#32 on UK iTunes Top Albums

 

#15 on US iTunes Top Albums :o after ONE day JESUS!!!

Gonna do soo well in the US it seems :o

iTunes means very little though really, US iTunes always gets lots of support from the more "indie" releases.

 

Still remember "Arular" shifted 130,000 copies in the US rather quietly so even if only half of those buy this album first week that should be enough for a top 30 debut this time round...

Culturedeluxe's Review 8/10!

I like Maya a lot, she is hot

I saw her today, she was actually rather amazing live. ^_^

Im picking up my copy tomorrow :dance: and Jake, you avi is I've only listened to the album twice but I think its my 2nd fave album of 07 next to Kings of Leon

she's not in the Top 50 on the Hits album building chart... :(

At No. 18, M.I.A. returns with her second effort, "Kala," selling 29,000.

Thanks for the info mate, nice reading.
