Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion

It was getting close to the afternoon, the sun in Los Angeles had risen to mid-sky, with clear, sunny skies, and the sunlight was particularly intense.

Link drove his Ferrari convertible along the West Coast Boulevard, racing along until he reached Big Machine Records’ Giant Guitar music studio.

As he walked into the studio, Taylor was sitting at the mixing desk with her blonde hair tousled, wearing a headset.

Her head was bobbing slightly to the beat.

There was also a sheet of paper on the mixing desk.

She was writing and drawing on it with a pen.

The other staff in the recording studio were also bustling about, including songwriters, music arrangers, production assistants, and about fifteen or sixteen other people, making it look a bit busier than Link’s studio.

Link didn’t disturb her, asking Emily to distribute drinks to the staff, while he placed a cup of coffee on the mixing desk.

"Emily, I’ve told you not to put coffee here, and don’t bother me, I don’t need anything."

Link quickly picked up the coffee, wiping his forehead. When Taylor lost her temper, her voice became cold, and her expression serious, which was somewhat intimidating.

He didn’t continue to approach, handing the coffee to Emily to keep warm, and then sat down on the sofa to read this week’s "Billboard" magazine.

Just like the film industry, the end of the year and the beginning are the peak times for releasing new works.

Just in January, there were 63 new albums launched.

Albums released included Ke$ha’s debut studio album "Animal" on January 5th, the famous country music group Lady Antebellum’s second studio album "Need You Now", and the well-known R&B singer Monica Arnold’s sixth studio album "Still Standing", among others.

Ke$ha’s "Animal" was knocked off the top of the album chart after two consecutive weeks by Lady Antebellum, but Monica’s new album saw significant sales growth, also aiming for the top spot.

The sales data from January showed fierce competition in the music industry.

Additionally, many artists released promotional singles for their new albums in January, with three of the hottest artists being:

Justin Bieber, following his debut album in November of last year, planned to release his sophomore album "My World 2.0" in March, with the lead single being "Baby".

Released on January 1st, the single broke into the top ten of the charts within three weeks, currently sitting in the fifth position.

It is a popular song at the moment.

The second artist is Link Music’s rapper Wiz Khalifa, who planned to release his new album "Deal Or No Deal" at the end of February, with the first promotional single being "Black and Yellow". Find exclusive stories on

This single was originally Khalifa’s number-one single, but last year Link provided some creative ideas, and the rest was completed by Khalifa.

During this process, Link also provided some of his own suggestions for revisions.

The song was not much different from the original version.

The single, released on January 5th, sold 35,000 copies in the first week, debuting at number 42 on the singles chart and fifth on the rap chart.

It broke into the top ten this week, ranking sixth, and first on the rap chart.

The third artist is Bieber’s mentor Usher, who planned to release his new album "Raymond v. Raymond" in March.

This album’s production lineup is extremely powerful.

Producers included Black Eyed Peas, Jay-Z, the famous Redone who crafted Lady Gaga’s breakout album "The Fame", and Mariah Carey’s frequent producer Jermaine Dupri, among a total of twelve platinum producers. ȑἁＮÖβĚs

He also released the first single this week, "Hey Daddy (Daddy’s Home)"

It debuted at number 32 on the singles chart in its first week of release, making a good start.

The albums of these three artists represent three different genres: pop music, rap, and R&B blues, and together with Lady Antebellum’s country music album, music artists from several mainstream genres released new songs at the beginning of the year.

The competition got off to a fierce start, adding some pressure to Link as he was planning to release his album in March.

Link looked further at the other rankings on the album chart.

His debut album "the fighter", a year after its release, had fallen out of the top 200 on the album chart, but overseas sales were still considerable, with a cumulative global sale of 6.83 million copies.

His sophomore album "Keep On Movin’" was still stubbornly in the top hundred of the album chart, selling 4,053 copies this week and ranking 73rd, with cumulative sales in the United States of 3.223 million copies, holding the potential to catch up to Taylor’s second album "Fearless" in U.S. sales.

Furthermore, "Keep On Movin’" had already surpassed 10 million copies worldwide, reaching a total of 12.25 million, and with the continuation of his tour, album sales were slowly increasing.

This album became Link’s first diamond record.

Link Music had two other artists, with Lana’s debut album selling 8,229 copies this week and ranking 28th on the album chart, accumulating 682,000 copies in the United States.

The album performed well in Britain, selling 150,000 copies in just over two months, with a total of 1.35 million copies sold overseas.

Bruno Mars’ debut album, in its eighth week since release, sold 21,000 copies this week, with a cumulative total of 787,000 copies sold inside the United States, surpassing Lana and being on track to break one million copies.

Overseas, the album sold a moderate 350,000 copies in just over a month.

But it also crossed the one million milestone.

Link Music, having released four records this year from three artists, boasted one diamond record, one six-times platinum record, and two platinum records.

All were above platinum.

This news created a stir in the music industry.

Even though artists from the top five record companies had also sold platinum records last year, they needed to sell several dozen to a hundred albums to produce a single platinum record.

But when Link Music made a move, it was platinum, and four consecutive releases at that.

Such accomplishment was dazzling.

It indicated that Link Music had discovered the magic formula for consistently producing platinum-selling albums.
