PopNStuff Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 (edited) http://hitsdailydouble.com/news&id=312310 Quote A battle for #1 appears to be shaping up on this week’s Top 50 chart, with the surprise drop by The Carters (aka Beyoncé and Jay-Z) giving the new album from Capitol’s 5 Seconds of Summer a run for its money. Both The Carters (a Roc Nation/UMG-Parkwood/Columbia co-release) and 5SOS are currently on track to do about 120k. But there’s a wild-card factor to consider: XXXtentacion, whose death in a 6/18 shooting has caused a rush of support at both streaming services and digital retail. The late rapper has returned to the Top 10 at Spotify and has four of the Top 5 songs at Apple Music—will this activity be sufficiently intense and sustained to make XXX a contender for #1 as well? Another lingering question mark is the impact of Tidal, which had The Carters as an exclusive over their opening weekend—they seem to have some juice over there—and which has been the subject of no small amount of controversy regarding its reported numbers. Then there’s Spotify, which appears to have kept Jay and Bey off its most trafficked real estate as a consequence of the Tidal exclusive. How seriously will these two streameries affect their total? The Carters (Roc Nation/UMG-Parkwood/Columbia) 115-125k, 72-77k album 5 Seconds of Summer (Capitol) 113-118k, 92-97k Nas (Mass Appeal/Def Jam) 70-80k, 40-50k Christina Aguilera (RCA) 68-73k, 62-67k Jay Rock (TDE/Interscope) 24-27k, 6-7k Might change once those fraudulent streams from Tidal come in... Updated on 6/22: It looks like a battle to the finish for #1 on today's chart, with the contest between the Jay-Z/Beyoncé project The Carters (Roc Nation/UMG-Parkwood/Columbia) and 5 Seconds of Summer (Capitol) still too close to call. Both titles are hovering around 120-125k; keep checking in as this fight goes to the wire. http://hitsdailydouble.com/news&id=312359 *The Carters (Roc Nation/Parkwood/Columbia)** *5 Seconds of Summer (Capitol) 113-118k, 90-100k Post Malone (Republic) 83-88k, 9-11k XXXtentacion (Bad Vibes Forever) 80-90k, 6-7k *Nas (Mass Appeal/Def Jam) 76-81k, 44-48k *Christina Aguilera (RCA) 70-75k, 62-67k Kanye West (G.O.O.D/Def Jam) 49-54k, 10-12k Cardi B (Atlantic) 42-46k, 3-4k Juice Wrld (Grade A/Interscope) 42-46k, 1-2k Kids See Ghosts (G.O.O.D/Def Jam) 37-40k, 8-9k Final: http://hitsdailydouble.com/sales_plus_streaming Edited June 22, 2018 by PopNStuff updates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frenchyisback Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 (edited) WOW! LESS THAN BTS...... With 2 fanbase ????????????? They really are over! This album was really full of fillers tho' Time for a DC surprise release. That is the only thing that can really shock people and get them interested in Beyonce again... JayZ must be left behind.
