She didn't even slightly surpass the 150-170K prediction like I wanted her to.
I know right? I don't want to make it seem like she's flopping, because she's not, but she did disappoint with these numbers any way you look at it. When Problem opened with about 440k, I thought that she had at least half of that on lock for the album.

Yes, this is me doing a comparison, but hey, just to show how noone is safe when it comes to record sales: Lana had NO hit, NO personal promotion from her (appearances on TV, etc) no big hype about the album being out, and she sold 180k something. HOW does a artist with 3 top 10 hits sell less than someone with NO promotion? It really just seems so crazy

People are interested in Lana's albums and people are interested in Ari's singles. What don't people understand

Lana came from a huge era... Both had disappointing numbers, lbr.

because if you have 3 songs in the top 10, then wouldn't that mean most people would be like "If 3 good songs are on the album, then the rest has to be amazing and I will buy it"
We'll make sure to ask you. You're keeping good track of her sales.
Not really, no. I have zero idea what she's sold internationally. I only vaguely know her US sales this year because I looked it up on UKMix this week.

Not that hard of a logic, duh.
I don't think that's how it works There are many artists who are smashing with singles, yet album sales are underwhelming

These tragic sales.
Will Taylor even sell 500k first week?
Doesn't Taylor have some kind of prize going along with her album though? 800k at least is on lock
