James Arthurhas carried on his feud with fellowX Factorwinner Matt Cardle.

The Impossible singer took to Twitter to react to comments Cardle made about his debut album sales, after it was revealed that his first LP Letters sold more copies than J-Arth's self-titled set.

Matt managed to shift 70,896 copies back in 2011, while Arthur sold 63,996 copies and charted at No.2 on Sunday (November 10).

Matt said in an interview with Digital Spy: "Well, there you go. Having slagged me and my career off for a year now, the numbers are in and they speak for themselves."

After seeing Cardle's remarks, Arthur tweeted: "First week sales.. My album will still sell more you'll see ;) and I had the balls to release same week as Eminem #homework.

"And you can hardly call being in the top 20 for 2 seconds selling 700 copies or whatever it takes to chart now 'still being around'. Where's it now? Number 190 or summit. LOL."

When a fan told James that Matt's album was at No.296 in the charts, he responded: "296 constitutes still being around? Maybe on digital spy flower.. You sound like the singer out the feeling but much much worse #LOVE."

Another user then accused Arthur of being arrogant, he replied:  "I speak my mind because so many things are twisted in this industry.. You call it arrogant I call it real... if you don't like me then don't waste your time tweeting me.. It's just weird."

Cardle is yet to respond to James' latest jibes.
