Chris Daughtry’s Album #1 On Billboard’s Top 200

January 30, 2007 |

Chris Daughtry continues to be the number one album seller from the 2006 season of American Idol. His self titled cd Daughtry has reached the number one spot on Billboard’s top 200 list.

Chris’ album is also making Idol history because it is the first recording from an Idol that didn’t finish in the top 2 spots to achieve the number one Billboard status. It kind of makes you wonder about how the voting process works when you see results like this.

American Idol is redefining the way we decide what is popular in music today. Many bands and artists work and struggle for years to get known and become popular. Now with Idol, the public gets to decide in one season who it is that they would rather listen to, making instant stars out of people who were virtually unknown just 3 months before the show started.

American Idol has been responsible for 108 chart topping #1 singles and albums and is redefining music for us all. Congratulations to Chris!
