charts discussion HDD: Taylor Swift #1, Olivia Rodrigo BLOCKED

but since Tay is getting blocked, I think she's stupid for shipping everything in the same week!

she could've gotten over 10 weeks in the top 10 if she split the signed cds and vinyls, that would help evermore become on par with the rest of her albums when it comes the number of weeks in the top 10, since it didn't get that many weeks...

Is she though? Something doesn’t add up with HDD’s numbers.

so Liv still has a chance for a chart double soon even if g4u falls to #2 on Mon/Tues @QueenofCopyPaste

 

BoTs will hold on for that #1

[JawBreaker]

Her team is the dumbest ever I swear

What's the point of going #2 - #89 

The album literally has nothing going for it why dont you just spread out the shipments just enough for multiple weeks top 10.

do you think that remix would have 100k sales? it was garbage 

either way, it's a bit early to tell. Taylor should have sign CDs shipped too and I don't think she'll just end with 130k.

lol she did like 200-250k for folklore,

and she's currently sending signed evermore cds to indie record stores (which means that she signed more that the 75k figure she put for sale on her site)

not some swifties on twitter saying they'll stop streaming SOUR this week 

 

this would be a cute top 2 regardless. Taylor had a lot of multiple #1s already. not mad at all

olivia has huge GP support. twitter swifties deciding to not stream won't make a dent lol

whew olivia will hold the #1 spot for a while even if she loses it to evermore this week. Is anyone big releasing the next weeks? This will do 100k+ for at least two more weeks i think.

They did the same thing with folklore back in December  It could have at least 21 weeks in the top 10 by now if her team was smarter

 

Hopefully the signed copies aren't counted and will ship next week so it'll be another batch of signed CDs away from reputation's weeks in the top 10

Polo G & Maroon 5, but they're a flop now  i think BTS is releasing a compilation album too though. it's always those rats, ugh.

wait, evermore had a bigger second week than folklore? 

 

-

 

If pre-orders were counted during the first week then evermore would have easily broken past 400k and even 450k if physical copies were available 

 

[Cloröx]

Wowoww evermore 

But I've been told that pure sales is useless in 2021 

[edifierbass]

15k-20k album sales is pretty bad, right?

[Michael196]

if billboard doesn’t put this pic in the bb200 article then they they would be dumb

The signed copies will be 65K max in the U.S., they put 70K on her store. 65K for U.S. and 5K for international and at the end of the sale they still had 10K remaining for the U.S. which is where all the ones being sent to indie stores are coming from most likely. Still great numbers
