Looks like this past week's super Tuesday of album releases wasn't so super after all. Four major artists dropped highly anticipated new records, and all four saw disappointing numbers. We're sorry, 'Ye, but your fans just got heartless.

<p>Looks like this past week&#8217;s super Tuesday of album releases wasn&#8217;t so super after all. Four major artists dropped highly anticipated new records, and all four saw disappointing numbers. We&#8217;re sorry, &#8216;Ye, but your fans just got heartless.</p>
<p><strong>1. Kanye West: </strong><em><strong>808s &amp; Heartbreak</strong></em><strong> &#8212; 450,000 copies sold</strong><br />
Less than half of what <em>Graduation</em> moved in its first week.</p>
<p><strong>2. Taylor Swift: </strong><em><strong>Fearless</strong></em><strong> &#8212; 267,000 </strong><br />
This album&#8217;s been out since Nov. 11 and can&#8217;t be stopped!</p>
<p><strong>3. Guns N&#8217; Roses: </strong><em><strong>Chinese Democracy</strong></em><strong> &#8212; 261,000</strong><br />
Haters be damned. This record slays. Believe.</p>
<p><strong>4. Beyoncé: </strong><em><strong>I Am&#8230;Sasha Fierce</strong></em><strong> &#8212; 257,000 </strong><br />
Check our <a href="http://giantmag.com/articles/exclusive-beyonce-giant-cover/" target="_blank">cover</a>.</p>
<p><strong>5. Ludacris: </strong><em><strong>Theater of the Mind</strong></em><strong> &#8212; 213,000</strong><br />
Oh, sick burn.</p>
<p><strong>6. The Killers: </strong><em><strong>Day &amp; Age</strong></em><strong> &#8212; 193,000<br />
</strong>With a lead single as bland as &#8220;Human,&#8221; what do you expect?</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the <a href="http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/news/kanye-edges-gnr-ludacris-for-no-1-debut-1003918838.story" target="_blank">Billboard article</a>.</p>
