Really flopped. Even the thread on his floppage is flopping on ATRL.. 

it’s popular amongst one fanbase it seems 

[Taylor fanboy]

A celebration of life!
 

One subtracted MID pop boy.

 

OUT!

[MusicLoverDude]

You know its bad when @Green @UnusualBoy and @shelven , three of the sanest ATRLers on here, are all calling this a flop  

 

Bad Habits was basically his Girlfriend. Eyes Closed is serving Here's To Never Growing Up instead of What the Hell  

[LittleFreak]

It's a shame this is happening with one of his best albums.

16M debut in STREAMING era for an artist that got big because of streaming is a...

 

BOMB

[SoldierofLove]

Does this mean Morgan will return to #1 in the US next week? 

[KingWitch]

Welp ,time to hang it up with the maths and reinvent

Most likely 

Unless Ed somehow sold a lot of physicals, but we would have gotten an HDD article if he did and there is no other big new Release.

 

Think he is debuting at like #5 at best

Unless there is another K-POP release we don't know about, yes.

Didn't he recently release an album that bombed too

By Charlie's standards not really

[Jay L]

He must be fuming at these numbers omg  sad because he actually has talent but the music isn't giving what it needs to give. Maybe if he's lucky the GP will latch on to a song that his label can payola push enough to turn into a hit

Ed Sheeran is THE most chart obsessed artist out there (only rivaled by The Weeknd) so to see his career become this is insane 

[Selenasworld]

who gave him 15M streams anyway? 

[Wonderland]

Looks like it might be "Curtains" for Ed

[Rev8]

So how does this compare to other releases this year streaming-wise

[Sawk]

Oh wow, a BOMB 

 

Ed must be FUMING since he’s so chart obsessed

oh

[Elusive Chanteuse]

The fact that this is only 7 pages but it would be at like 70 by now with a pop girl 

[industry baby]

Even 15M too much for it. 

[Papi Juancho]

Divide: 56.7M
Equals: 30.4M
Subtract: 15.9M

Damn.
