Gwen has one of the best selling albums of the year. Talent.

[FanOfPop]

Updated sales. A lot of movement finally. Also, there are some pretty solid gaps between some albums that will probably from now on just rise. We'll see.

There are still 4 soundtracks in top 10 (with "Fifty Shades Darker" probably being out next week).

"25" finally surpassed "Lemonade" (I think for the first time this year).

Hopefully Bey puts LEMONADE on Spotify around the year anniversary.

By the way, this was the best selling week for albums this year.

Till weekend certainly yes. Don't know when exactly.

[FanOfPop]

Week 10 updated.

Sorry for the late .. rough week. Anyway, "Divide" easily became the best selling album so far although I doubt he will be #1 at the end of the year. My guess would be Bruno or anyone who hasn't released yet.

First six albums have built solid lead and they will change the positions between themselves in the following weeks imo.

"Joanne" will be out of Top 10 next update and "Hardwired ... To Self-Destruct" should be #2. Interesting.

I think it's gonna change through the year.

Just a few years ago movie soundtracks had problems even peaking within the Top 20, and BB was trying to figure out why. I think soundtracks come and go in respective patterns.

[TattooedDreams]

Gaga still Top 10 

[glass eye]

Congrats to all of them!

King Drizzy is coming to kick that ginger gremlin off the #1 spot deservedly  

Edited March 21, 2017 by Chanel Oberlin

[GypsyLAMB]

Queen Gwen's album still in the top 5, while younger pop girls can't achieve longevity

[FanOfPop]

Updated OP. A lot of Metallica's albums experienced surge cause of the recent ticker bundle event. I think due to that "Hardwired ... To Self-Destruct" will be one of the few albums this year that will reach 500k sales. Besides "Divide" I can see it also for "24K Magic" and maybe "More Life" for now. The rest of top 20 is pretty stable. Next week Top 3 will be the same with Drake debuting possibly at #4.

[DELE2125]

21 outselling Dangerous Woman and 1989 

 

Edited March 25, 2017 by DELE2125

[liberalmusiclover]

The fact that tens of copies are separating albums' placements.  Sales are truly dead.

21 outselling dangerous woman and about to outsell anti :(

Kings  However, these numbers are kinda tragic.

[FanOfPop]

OP updated. "More Life" debuted at #7, "Beauty And The Beast" reached top 20 with very nice second week (honestly even better than the opening one). It's amazing how Bruno and The Weeknd released basically at the same time but "24K Magic" is so far ahead of "Starboy" in terms of pure sales.

 

So far:

- albums with 1 000 000 sales: 0

- albums with 500 000 sales: 0

- albums with 250 000 sales: 3

- albums with 100 000 sales: 21

 

Next week:

- "Divide" should surpass half million mark and became first album to do this in 2017

- "Moana" will cross 250 000 mark

- "Grammy Nominees" and "Sing" (hopefully) will be the other two albums with 100 000 sales
