The new Sept. 2-dated chart (where Rainbow debuts at No. 1) will be posted in full on Billboard's websites on Tuesday (Aug. 22). Rainbow's sales bow of 90,000 was aided in part by a concert ticket/album bundle sale redemption promotion with Kesha's upcoming tour. Other chart-topping albums that have benefited from such an offer this year include Arcade Fire's Everything Now, Linkin Park's One More Light, The Chainsmokers' Memories… Do Not Open and Perry's Witness. READ MORE Kesha's Return: A Primer on Her Comeback & Standout Songs Rainbow marks Kesha's fifth charting title overall, and first since 2012, when her last studio set, Warrior, debuted and peaked at No. 6. (The long delay between album projects is owed to her legal battle with producer Dr. Luke.) Prior to Warrior, she logged entries with the remix album I Am the Dance Commander + I Command You to Dance (No. 26 in 2011), Cannibal (No. 15; 2010) and her debut album, Animal, which opened at No. 1 in January of 2010.

Domination Posted August 23, 2017 Posted August 23, 2017 How come they update something as minor as this but have yet to comment about the sales counted for Katy's 2 cancelled dates? Congrats to Kesha.
gloamingtheplain Posted August 23, 2017 Posted August 23, 2017 So only 1000 came from tour bundles? Interesting. I don't think that would have been the case for other bundles

Congrats to Kesha. do you think they were forced to hand back the album or something? why would a cancelled tour date un-sell a claimed album?
