Diggy Simmons is not letting low first week sales get him down [click here if you missed that], and compares himself to Jay Z and Bruno Mars...
Diggy tells blogger Karen Civil
“It’s about growth. You look at a whole bunch of people. Look at “Reasonable Doubt.” When that first came out, that wasn’t anything. And look at Jay now. You could look at Bruno Mars recently. When his “Doo Wops & Hooligans”came out, like 50,000 first weeks and ended up going double plat. So it’s about growth for me. I’m happy that the people who are listening to it are loving it. It’s like having an impact on your life and making them want to aspire to be whatever it is they want to be. Because that’s what “Unexpected Arrival” is about. It’s about making your arrival in life special, no matter what people say or if they don’t know what you’re capable of. It starts with the belief in you before you try to go and look for other people’s approval. I’m happy that it’s doing that for people.”
