Jamie Foxx dropped a new album last week and I got to hand it to him on his promo game. I’ve seen him on a plethora of talk shows doing impressions and telling stories about how he dissed T.I. back in the day. But I don’t know if that’s translating to sales for A Story of a Dozen Roses. He’s last album before this one, Best Night of My Life, has sold around 400,000 and the two before that went Platinum. I have a feeling A Story of a Dozen Roses won’t have the same fate. I listening to it on Spotify right now but as usual, I’ll defer to Saule Wright on if it’s a good album or not.
