album BLACKPINK - 'BORN PINK'

[thirdward]

it’s time to announce Jennie and V even if it’s fake 

if we go down then go down with us!

[Hazy]

I cannot believe it  the tour selling like hot cakes yet they struggle to sell 100k, when they did more in 2020?? is it possible that YG didn’t ship orders from their site? people ordered from ktown instead? people said no to 50$ 8 tracks album? SICK! 

[ItsJustMe.]

our good sis Mel has been very quiet lately

 

did she see this coming 

[k4rmabutterfly]

There are no excuses I fear like the sales are on par with adspa it’s so embarrassing omg, USA blinks should handle the lashings alone tbh

[samybertoni]

It's OVER 

[Froufrou]

Akgae is the problem i told y'all 

[whirly]

Idk how true this is and how much it increased last time but maybe there's hope if this prediction is motivation for them to move their asses

The first predictions were 90-100k for The Album

so a 25-30k difference even though Adspa isnt even a 2 year old group and are flopping hard on streaming
I'd say their number is way more impressive than BORN PINKS 80-85k if its true..



Like this is a huge BOMB... we better hope HDD is wrong

and they ended up doing 110k right? So there is hope for us 

[Lalisa]

I'm not surprised tbh, I read many US blinks on reddit bought their albums from kpop stores (don't count for bb200) because it was cheaper. We have the digipacks but YG should have made one versionof the album at 30$ tbh.

 

At least they finally put the digital album on Blackpink store few hours ago.

You could buy Aespa album for 12$. Use some logic lol 

[k4rmabutterfly]

Their Spiceworld era. The USA said no.

Please Aespa albums were 12$. Born Pink is 50$ and individual digipacks (not available in all stores, but available on internet) 20-35$ plus blinks had to buy their concert tickets.

[By the Water]

20k more than aespa, NCT and ATEEZ. 20k less than twice. Something's fishy

 

[TaylenaStan]

I truly doubt that the high price matters THAT much... the ppl buying albums are mostly hardcore fans anyways who will buy anything.. 
I'd say high price would matter for a gp artist like Adele etc
kpop fans buy multiple versions of albums for lots of money anyways, i dont think the price is a good excuse here
Atleast not a good enough excuse for selling less than TWICE and THE ALBUM

it really doesn’t matter whether aespa’s album was $1 dollar or not

they're rookies while blackpink is the biggest GG in the world

 

I was expecting 150-200k lol 

[ItsJustMe.]

anyway let’s get excited for Jimmy Kimmel

Apparently the early projection doesn’t include albums that have yet to be shipped. The Album was released on a Friday but it’s physical release was on a Tuesday, meaning early projections included all shipped albums.

Born Pink meanwhile, had its physical release on a Friday, and since YG doesn’t ship over the weekends, there’s a ton of international sales that are yet to be counted. And just anecdotally, a ton of US Blinks have been saying they’re getting shipping emails today.

this better be true

Twice had the same initial projections. Think it'll go up. Their shop put the digipaks on sale, I bought them

[ALA]

The price tag is definitely a factor. If they were regular prices I would've bought all 3 versions already
