I hope 13 Management is in shambles right now. ENOUGH with the online shenanigans and give us some NEW content.

In other news, Midnights is only 10k BB200 units behind UVST

True, true. 5 weeks is nothing to turn your nose up at.

All I care about is its units, weeks at #1 are borderline irrelevant considering how many she already has  :lakitu:  does anyone know its SEA??

The numbers don’t really make sense tbh :rip: I mean how is there still an 8k gap? No way the digitals tanked THAT hard, so I guess they heavily underestimated her sales in the initial projection. Even then though, I wouldn’t have imagined they underestimated that badly :skull:

SEA is around 58k, up 13-14%. I hope Midnights will stabilize between 50-60k until the tour starts.

Well. I’m embarrassed for us.

Good, she deserved this after trying to pass off old interview clips as new content instead of actually doing something.

The reality that we have to face now is that the 3am physical copies are non existent :rip:

I think they overestimated how much we would care about the surprise drop :rip: Like I've already purchased several copies of Midnights, Blondie is insane if she thinks I'm buying more. She needs to give us NEW content to get invested in. The fact that she's sitting on Lavender Haze MV and 3am vinyl but choosing to feed us scraps instead is leaving a bad taste in my mouth.

 

I'd like to see Midnights have one last push before tour but with SN(TV) rumoured to drop in March, I fear Midnights is getting evermore'd.

The way we have to endure online bullying bc of her stunts is annoying. Lemme just ignore this website for a week.

There's no chance they don't capitalize on 3am vinyl. That's easily another 1-2 weeks at #1 (plus god knows how much in total album units).

On the bright side, Midnights should cross 3.5M units next week. :clap3:

Her website actually had more than 10K orders 90 minutes before the deadline. I wonder if her physical copies just fell more than expected

I don’t understand her and her team sometimes. They clearly care about being #1 pulling the embarrassing stunts yet sit on **** that would actually give her longevity instead of just a quick boost like the LH MV, 3am vinyl or even CDs, more signed copies. She’s getting lazy and I’m glad she will get clowned for it because she clearly still cares. Push the second single heavy and close the gap with streaming units that will be better for longevity in the long run but oh well.

 

Anyways, 11 weeks with over 100k units, has she surpassed UVST yet? And what was the highest 11th week recently?

I think the vinyl factories are busy with Speak Now TV + The 3AM edition would require 2 vinyl. I'm really not sure we are getting them, but that would probably secure Midnights to be 7X platinum by the end of the year.

UVST did 98k in its 11th week

In other news, Midnights is still leading the BB200 race for 2023 BB200 YEC #1 by a gap of roughly 700K. SOS shouldn’t overcome that huge gap, given it’s barely out-performing Midnights’ 11th week during its 4th. I think Midnights will easily take the YE #1, unless we have another UVST pop up this year. 

 

Also, I think they filtered the digital sales. The number doesn’t make sense any other way, because she logged over 10k orders on her site during that time period. Her team probably assumed having different recordings attached to each would make them all count, but Billboard probably still considered them just cover variations of the same album. It would make perfect since why she ‘only’ added +10K from the initial 107K and the sales were so much lower than HDD predicted.

She’s only 10k units behind UVST with this week’s sales update. Will surpass him this week and hopefully clear 3.5M total units as well.
