My friend told me he was a country singer

So #2 for Ariana is possible if she outsells Tamar (which is likely) right?

#1 is possible for Ariana if NIN gets the same treatment their last 2 albums got

I still believe she'll get a #1. The NIN album is #50 on iTunes right now and Ari is way ahead of that. I believe she'll shoot up once midnight hits and everyone who didn't feel like pre-ordering gets their copies. Plus, the fact that her album only costs half as much as the NIN album could help.

how did they do?

Omg I'd be so happy if she debuted #1

It seems like JAHEIM & John Legend are her biggest competition

JAHEIM sold 112k with their last release in 2010

& John Legend sold 63,000


Who ever said NIN is a big rock band
they're last effort sold 29,000


Tamar's debut sold 12,000

Does anyone know the predictions for albums that came out last week?

Will any of them sell over 100k next week?

Ghosts I-IV peaked at #14 and The Slip at #13
But those albums were self-released and had NO promo at all. They're signed to Columbia now

I hope you're right

Well NIN was a big rock band lol...but if Ariana does sell over 100k or even 200k I can't wait to see all the pressed stans.

29k though sis?

I really think Ari has this in the bag.

Ppl would be SO pressed if she sells more than Demi and Selena



But let's not jinx it

John Legend is at #54, even lower than NIN and JAHEIM is at #154. Meanwhile, Ariana is #18.

There is NO WAY that she isn't debuting at #1. She has no competition whatsoever.

We'll see
Hoping we see it skyrocket like The Way and Baby I did.

Does anyone have a promo schedule for this week? I'm so behind on her era.
Not debut albums. Just look at Taylor Swift's/Luke Bryan's/etc. First albums never debut strong with country. The album will have amazing longevity if it's well received, but debut albums by country stars never debut high.

NiN will probably do 150k at most. I don't think they're much of a competition at this point.

I hope Urban and Rhythmic backs up Ari. I really think Ari has an advantage of 3 major radio formats.

Idk who those artists are but just because they're low on iTunes doesn't mean they'll sell less than Ariana.

If it's an older generation then they'll probably be purchasing it in-store.

iTunes isn't always a correct reflection of album sales.

People underestimating Tamar. She's #34 on Amazon while Ariana is #71.

None of her singles had the success Ariana's did though
