HDD: TTPD 16th week at #1 w/ 388K, Kendrick 161K

[The Music Industry]

With a little help from Target and Black Friday, Taylor Swift's THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT (Republic) will return to #1 this week. Meanwhile, second week projections for Kendrick Lamar's GNX (pgLang/Interscope) and Wicked: The Soundtrack (Verve/Republic) remain strong, each at over 100k.

This week's top debut will belong to Juice WRLD's The Party Never Ends 2.0 (Grade A/Interscope), and eight Christmas albums look set to occupy the Top 20.

Speaking of holiday spirit, has anyone seen our weed-infused vodka?

Wicked's stability Ugh, I need them to fight for that #1 later this month.

[Michael196]

Physicals will be counted double for the riaa… 7x Platinum by the end of the year 

[Donquizote]

Truly the greatest pop star of the 21st century

The fact that her 16th week is equivalent to certain girl's first week sale

Taylor finally released physicals for her extended album (before it was just the first 16 tracks)

[Squall]

Not 400k from a super expensive vinyl  Imagine if she had more stocking

Because a highly-anticipated physical release of The Anthology came out on Black Friday. Surely you people can't be this dense 

 

OT: Amazing numbers!

I don't know why they understocked so much. The vinyl is sold out almost everywhere internationally. 

[Popboi.]

Not bad for a vinyl release that supposedly made no noise in Black Friday 

 

 

Wicked's hold  #1 surely in the cards on Christmas week?

[DevilsRollTheDice]

Friendly reminder that TTPD has spent more weeks at number 1 on the Billboard 200 than the career totals of any artist on the greatest pop star of the 21st century list aside from Drake and Adele 

 

Oh Tortured ATRLers Department, smashing will always look amazing on you!

[tost1]

All that wait and building up hype to not even hit 389k? 

[mael]

16th week bigger than every girlies' debut this year besides CC.....

 

 

 

 

[MardinBeksloy]

Imagine if her team had pressed more vinyl   They are sold out everywhere

Honey, without the 300k, it still outsold your fave's 1st week

Unfortunately I don't think they can produce vinyl as much as they would want to, especially if they are focus on her next release… still super frustrating though 

[Cruel Summer]

There was easily enough demand for double this, they could have pressed so many more copies 

 

Still an astounding total and very exciting to see it get another week at #1, a massive era 

[Rep2000]

Now drop the vinyls in *all* vinyl stores, we would need to *block* the no.1 next week too

[nostalgic]

Physical sales will never die as long as Taylor is around  insane numbers for 2024
