Research your information, he's late getting his recognition, now you're giving incorrect information. He deserves better, he does it like no other R&B artist, he makes a woman feel good about love, and he brings love into relationships. So please, 37,000 is for his new album "JUST ME"....I'M SURE OF THAT...I know...because I am a #1 Keith Sweat Fan....since 1987.

Knile...I think you need to read the second paragraph again. The 37,000 is referring to Just me, his current album, and not the 2002 release.

Maz, That was his 2002 album that had 37,000. It doesn't say what he did this time around.

Damn! If Sweat sold 37,000 independently that means Cherish's album really tanked. Plus she had a major release with 2 videos and enough radio play. That sucks!
