Think about a more exclusive (to the GP) Twenty One Pilots. This is wild *Bruno outselling Ed Sheeran Cult following that gives him better initial album sales than most of the pop artist today.

Shizzy Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Logic is basically like Mac Miller. Huge fan base that will support the opening week, but except a 80%+ decline next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her only radio hit is the Cedric Gervais Summertime Sadness remix, so technically yes, but I wouldn't say she was that widely exposed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexanderao Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 THIS CHART STORY BELONGS TO EVERYBODY Quote Def Jam's Logic has emerged as the clear winner in this week's Sales Plus Streaming (SPS) Chart race, taking the #1 prize with a total north of 251k for third album Everybody. The rapper made a strong D2C showing, thanks to his rabid fanbase.For much of the week, it was a real squeaker of a race, and Mercury Nashville’s Chris Stapleton battled admirably through the final inning. The bearded troubadour’s From a Room: Volume 1 wrapped things up at #2 with a strong 222k. (On the Album Sales Chart, Stapleton did in fact receive #1 honors. His set moved approximately 206k units, while Logic’s moved 199k.) It’s also worth noting that his breakout set Traveller—originally out in 2015—leaped #33-22, up 67% with upwards of 23k, in tandem with the release of the new album. As for the other debuts, Russ’ There’s Really a Wolf (Columbia) bows at #7 with 49k, NOW’s Now 62 comes in at #9 with 36k and Diana Krall’s Turn Up the Quiet (Verve) appears at #14 with 30k. Hollywood’s Guardians of the Galaxy: Awesome Mix Vol. 2 sees a big jump this week as a result of the movie’s opening. The soundtrack bounds #9-4, up 134% with 87k. By the way, Awesome Mix: Vol. 1—originally out in 2014—re-enters the chart at #29 with just south of 18k. And there’s another film-related re-entry worth mentioning. Republic’s Fifty Shades Darker soundtrack flies in at #21 with 24k, as the DVD hits stores. Strange choice for a Mother’s Day present, but we ain’t judging. Mommy…? When it comes to SPS marketshare, UMG is #1 with 69% (…hehe, 69, hehe…) and WMG is #2 with 16%, while SME follows with 14% and the indies hold 1%.Streeting this week are albums from Columbia’s Harry Styles (in case you hadn’t noticed) and Southern Ground/Atlantic’s Zac Brown Band. -- 1.

Edibles. Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 I had NO clue people actually cared about Logic. I saw him open in front of Kid Cudi about three and a half years ago, and it was a mess. I felt secondhand embarrassment. Good for him though, a come up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
