I posted that clip from MSNBC to show that Adam is being interviewed tonight on Ari Melber’s show regarding Queen/Adam headlining the Global Citizen Festival in Central Park on Saturday!
Physical music sells better than on iTunes still. We’ll look at Billboard next week.
It’s nice to see Queen in the top 40 in many countries on iTunes, though. Freddie’s still selling!
It depends on the country. In some countries physical copies are still important, in others they barely exist any longer. You can find some interesting studies online, that survey yearly, how music is bought in different markets. The differences are huge.
In Adam‘s case there is no physical copy of the EP available at the moment. It will be only downloads and streaming, that count.
But according to Adam‘s own words, he‘s not aiming for great chart positions in the first place. Which is good, because with his strategy he will most probably not make the top ranks this time.
Limiting his own sales? What a label he has. No wonder it’s EP’s... they are just testing the waters with him.

You sound like a know-it-all, but you know close to nothing about Adam. Maybe you should go and listen or read some interviews, or at least some of the articles. There are more than enough released everyday atm.
If you go on posting about him, you should at least know, what you’re talking about.
I know about the music business and how his last label released him.

Empire have physical copies available and they're available through Adam's own site, he had signed one's available but they've sold out, not sure if there'll be more but not sure why you thought there were no physical copies available.

Nope the label is distribution only and it's down to Adam how he puts the album out and there are physical copies available on Empire and his own website. You keep harping on about the label but he's independent and lots of artists are doing the side A Side B release, it keeps interest going instead of just a single, album release then nothing. He's already released singles which are likely bonus tracks from side B and has said it's being released early next year, he's fitting things in with Queen stuff so it makes more sense to string things out that way since he can't do a solo tour until sometime next year aside from a few one off gigs at the end of the year.

Still haven't provided any proof of that have you? You may be in the business and know about labels etc but I very much doubt you know about what went on with him personally and the fact you can't get the idea that Empire aren't just a label but a distribution company and that's all Adam is using them for makes you less and less credible. Empire started out as distribution only and while they are a label for some artists others like Adam use them for distribution only. He went completely independent to have full control over how he does things so sink or swim it's down to him now.
I don’t need to. Ask him during a Q&A.
