All four are bigger than they were before they went on the who.
3/4 of the Voice judges have declined.
Your off topic aside on idol has been ignored.

I've learned tonight that Wafflecakes just does things like that/thinks like that instead of being "pressed".
You sort of take a fairly pessimistic or one-sided viewpoint, ignore fairly obvious nuances, backpedal slightly when they're pointed out, but I'm left wondering why you even took that viewpoint in the first place.
I like The Voice; I'm not some stan or uber fan of the show. But there are definite parallels in the way that you assessed Say Something's performance despite evidence (and I'm not speaking about the end result of it getting to #1), to the way that you summed up the coaches performances despite evidence.
Quite....strange. I take back you being "pressed" about Say Something and instead just kind of find it a bit odd at the way you personally interpret things.

Just stop with your lies.
I am not responding to them anymore.
You just ignore evidence presented. Then lie and say none were given. You give no actual evidence yourself outside of general BS statements like "it is behaving like a future #1", then act like everyone is pressed for ignoring your meaningless points. You lie about points others supposedly raised or positions they have taken, then post gifs as if that makes them any less false.
Hell you lie about verifiable facts.
-Cee Lo Greens album released before TV sold more than the one after.
-Xtina's album released before TV sold more than the one after.
-Blake Shelton's album sold virtually the same before and after, but his single sales are somewhat lower.
-Only Maroon 5 has noticed a significant sales boost.
These are not opinions. They are verifiable. It is true I am mostly trolling The Voice (Duets didn't really help anyone's careers), but at least I get my facts straight before I do so.

You do have a point there that superstars who release albums earlier in their career tend to see those albums sell more than ones released later.
You have a very very weird way of spinning evidence to fit into how you want it to look.
- Maroon 5 we agree on.
- Blake Shelton is at the top of his game right now. Has little to do with The Voice.
- Christina flopped with Lotus but is currently having the second *direct* use of The Voice to literally launch a song and a band's career
- I've never heard of anything Cee Lo has released post joining the Voice and I doubt the public has either, so whatever it is you're referring to, he certainly didn't use the show to promote it
It's a mixed bag. But you bizarrely present it in the most negative way possible, because gosh darnit, you want to insist on The Voice not really helping any of the coach's careers.
I mean even to get to this point you've backpeddled.
You're arguing this as the number 1 song on iTunes was launched on The Voice.
It's bizarre.

You invalidated your entire post right there.
All the albums referenced were released fairly recently. No significant drop has occurred since 2011.
It also doesn't explain how the Duets coaches are going up when they have all been in the game quite a while as well.

I just checked into John legends album sales... 2/3 ain't bad so far
Congratulations, I have no idea what you're talking about.
I just know the idea of going "THIS SUPERSTAR SOLD MORE ALBUMS EARLIER IN THEIR CAREER THAN THEY DID WHEN THEY JOINED A TV SHOW LATER IN THEIR CAREER!!! SO THERE!" is a bit of a head scratcher.
That does indeed tend to happen. Yet of the two superstars that were on a downward trend (as opposed to Blake at the top and Cee Lo being whatever), one of them saw an immediate resurgence, the other flopped, but just came back with a smash hit song that launched an indie band's career.
You want to spin that into some negative cesspool, have fun. It's a mixed bag. I don't know what secret issues you struggle with that prevent you from simply admitting that.
And with that, I'm off to bed.

John Legends last album in 2010 debuted at #8.
His latest debuted at #4, and the album produced a single that charted in the Hot 100. Unlike a single song from his 2010 album.
Seems like positive movement to me.

I feel like it's so awkward to release a song about your peer* while they are currently active**.
*using a very loose definition of the word peer.
**I suppose Drake gets away with Girls Love Beyoncé, then.

Poor Azealia Aguilera hasn't realized the only reason her career is still registering the most minuscule of pulse is precisely because she hasn't released an album.
Once she does, it's shit, and no one cares, the mystique of "newtwitter celebrity artist" will have worn off, leaving nothing but a large, sad sack of wasted potential.

Ughhhhh Beyonce why
Can the Beyhive please STOP buying tickets to this show? She needs no distractions so that she can finally fucking focus on the "Mrs. Carter is Dangerously In Love On Her 5th B'Day" album era.
At least this shows the bitch loves touring, almost counter-productively. But I suppose there's nothing counter-productive about making barrels of money.

I love that Mimi's giving her stans apt advice through the title of her latest album. She truly is the 2008 Janet Jackson of 2013.

I'm not even sure if it's official or not but Bey's "Standing On The Sun (SOS Reggae Remix)" featuring Mr. Vegas is giving me all kinds of life. No idea why the hell she passed up the potential to have a summer hit.

So it seems like Dark Horse will be the third single. Good choice.
Not walking on wigs? Smh.
wow.
Seethe that Azealia has effortlessly captured the attention of the internet including you.
You can repent when you discover that she has been creating a rap/pop masterpiece of an album that will bring about a new world order.
So it seems like Dark Horse will be the third single. Good choice.
Kind of a messy choice because some Rhythmic stations never stopped playing it from when it was a promo single. Katy her struggles.
I remember reading that she said that Legendary Lovers will definitely be a single at some point.
Rumour has it that the original choices for single #3 were This Is How We Do (capitol's choice
