Re: Creed made Stapp?

It's been nearly 5 months, but let me clarify what I think I meant. Creed's debut album was a big hit. They had four number one singles and sold millions of copies of MOP. Let's compare that to AB and Stapp. AB's debut: around 800K sold(estimate on my part). Stapp's debut: 500-800K sold(not sure about this?). AB's radio success: OYE was a top 20 rock radio hit, but none of the other singles got that big. Stapp's singles: TGD was also a top 20 rock radio hit, but he just officially released his second single, so it's a bit hard to tell how his next singles will do. Overall popularity: as far as I can tell, not that many people know about Stapp/AB, even rock radio fans. Back in '97/'98, practically every rock radio fan knew about Creed.
