So, what could go wrong if you decide to release two of your comedy albums on the same day and they are the first albums ever from your own record label? Well, if your red-hot artist/comedian Rodney Carrington, not a thing could go wrong.
Carrington released two albums - "Laughter's Good" and "C'Mon Laugh You Bastards" - on Oct. 28. Both albums, the first offerings from his own Laughter's Good Records, reached the top two spots on the comedy charts for the week.
Laughter's Good" debuted at No. 1 on the Soundscan Overall Comedy chart and the re-mastered "C'Mon Laugh You Bastards" (with three new previously unreleased songs) debuted at No. 2 on the Soundscan Overall Comedy chart. The two albums also debuted at No. 1 and No. 2 respectively on the iTunes Comedy Chart.
The platinum-selling comedian also just announced his new 2015 Here Comes The Truth Tour. Carrington has been one of the Top 10 highest grossing touring comedians for the last ten yearsaccording to Pollstar. For more information about the tour, visit Rodney's official website.
