Torturo Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 (edited) 6 minutes ago, perpetual novice said: Break My Heart was radio driven, she has more singles than this, Levitating is about to go T10 and doesn’t even have radio support right now. Dua has been absolutely everywhere this year, she’s no A Lister in the US (although she is globally) but she’s definitely capable of pulling off a platinum album, come on Its top5 on pop radio and top10 on overall radio ?

My Worlds Acoustic and Believe Acoustic (Justin Bieber) were counted separately I think since streaming bc most of the songs are just remixes of album songs (which would count anyway) ... other than that I don't know, but the difference must be like 3k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total streams divided by the number of tracks, divided by 100 (example: a 12-track album gets 650,000 streams -> 650,000/1200 = 542 units). This wouldn't do my faves' latest efforts any favors I reckon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go outside and ask people do they know who Dua Lipa is Every young person in Europe knows who Dua Lipa is. Even straight guys love her. Her popularity grew exponentially in the US too this year.

Also her being 15 years into her career Isnt Dua the #1 HOT100 female artist of the year??? So her album should be at least near 2M+. That should be a given Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyoto Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 US isn't Dua's biggest market, so I don't know why some are trying to drag her sales And even that, she is doing good. FN will easily outsell Romance and Manic, her peers latest albums and be the 2nd biggest one out of her peers, after Billie, like how is 2nd place a bad thing? I can see FN ending with 2~2.5m units Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
