I'll just copy-pase my post from UKMIX.

I've been doing some work gathering info on Nashe's previous albums and their chart runs, and I honestly think we might be getting some new chart debuts / highest peaks in several markets around the world with Popstar.

This sudden little explosion with the Bonus Edition has surprised me, to be honest. Going from peaking at #8 on Saturday to being #1 and #7 on US iTunes and actually dethroning Taylor is kind of shocking to me, even though iTunes obviously has significantly dipped in relevance in the last years.

It might be bit of the good word of mouth going around, and "No Broke Boys" might have brought some extra attention to her in Europe and Oceania as well.

Anyhow, so deserved and I'm ecstatic for Tinashe!

Very comprehensive and well presented! Wish there was a way to archive this for future reference.

Popstar best new track. I am nervous and excited for albums review

Sounds like they're teasing a great score

This album is really a triumph omg I pray it out-peaks & sells Aquarius.

Everyone better have purchased

Such a great album, I'm so glad I decided to listen to this today.

This deserves everything

OMG

Tinashe once again being years ahead of the girls

Twentyfive Eight, Cloud 9 and Brainrot (punched right after Popstar) are some stellar album tracks where her writing chops and some great production shine

Yall, I came back again. THIS ALBUM' IS CRAZYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

SPEAKER SO LOUD

MUSIC MY RELIGION

ALLAH ALLAH

Pink loves Tinashe so much it warms my heart a bit

PinkP is such a girl's girl.

This IS the Rihanna come bakc album she wish she had.

OUFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Flashbacks IS THAT GIRL

brainrot so sick of fake love

brainrot brainrot brainrot brainrot brainrot

This might be corny, I think she should…

Each night this week, we get a different versions of popstar with a surprise ft (Kelela & Rochelle , Charlie, Fka twigs (she too pretentious, so Doja cat)) keep it exclusive. Friday add the girls to album extended/deluxe to all DSPs and keep the versions on her website as a website exclusive only.

album should end with Cloud 9

the lasts song is a buzzkill , delete it

Popstar getting BNT on pitchfork... BNM so is coming

shaping up to be the most acclaimed work of her career, possibly the highest debut too

pulling this off over a decade into her career after all the struggles with RCA and then rebuilding as an independent artist... i'm so ******* proud of our girl fr

I hope this signals a Tinashenaissance for her! Loved her since Aquarius, I always knew she had it in her to be THEE Popstar and I love that shes leaning so hard into that branding now

I'm on my 42th replay … i know all the lyrics.

SHE'S SLAYING ME! I can't return to work hold me

This is such a massive leap forward while still being quintessentially Tinashe. Only she could make an album like this. So proud to have been riding since the mixtape days

My first listen was so good. Really impressed

Top 2 Global Debut

NWDA Top 10 US Debut

I knew the second the teased the Popstar snippet on that red carpet that she was NOT playing around this era. Everything has been such a major serve! I cannot wait to see her next month

Jojo being a good friend to our Queen. I wish they could do a genuine collab one day.

Every project she's released since Songs for You has been great and this is no exception.

Yall shouldve known Tinashe was coming for blood when Ms Kuwa haself approved of Too Easy, Melatonin, Crash Out and Pillow Talk/Id Rather Be Alone.

I told u she was onto sth

Flashbacks is so good it came as a recommendation and I loved it, I'll give the rest of the album a listen to see what's up
