MMLP2 Debuts At #1 With 793K

[therapist]

I can totally see it happening. Interscope could be killing Gaga for a newer artist. Labels do that all the time. Subtle inner-industry workings.

What is Gaga expected to debut with, anyone know?

Does em have a chance at denying her #1 spot?

No he doesn't. GaGa will do at least 500k EASILY, she might even do a million but I doubt it these days. Her last one did a million though.

Gaga will do at least 500k easily?? I don't think so. Most projections have her at around the 300k mark. I think she will hit 400k at the most. Doubt she will even hit 500k, let alone easily..

Sounds like JT is Em's debut party killer. Only act to beat his MMLP debut all time record was N Sync. And now only Artist to beat his debut 13 years later is JT.

Lol JT the silent killer. BTW what the fuck is up with Gaga's numbers? She fell off fuckin' hard. She was HUGE 3-4 years ago.

JT's total album sales?

[Shady50]

JT's total album sales?

Solo - about 20 million
With N Sync - about 50 million

That's about a total of 70 million all together. Did the math off Wikipedia. His recent album is at 2.3 million worldwide.

Ohhh we were so close to 800k! I'm happier with the 792k

And we can't really compare his first week sales to JT. Jts main demographic is much more inclined to actually purchase the music, whereas Shady's is much more likely to pirate it. It's for the kids!!! Kids pirate music...

To see how truly relevant he is in the rap game still we must compare him to who are basically the hottest rappers in the game right now, Drake, J Cole, Kendrick, Kanye, hell even Jigga, all of which he outsold absurdly... with the exception of Drake which was still 132k difference. Em is still them most relevant thing about hip-hop.

[Shady50]

I'm very happy with the album sales. And people need to stop bringing up Lil Wayne's album sales. Realistically Carter 4 probably did about 500k first week if YMCM didn't buy there own albums. Even Drake's album fell off hard the second week.

I wouldn't have even bothered.

Not too shabby.

Timberlake also appeals to a wider audience (young kids, older people, etc.).

Wasn't the Deluxe edition considered a double album? If that's the case, this is pretty bad because I'm sure there were a considerable amount of deluxe versions sold.
