Arent albums usually released on a Tuesday in the U.S. in order to attain a full tracking week worth of sales for Billboard? Or has that been changed?

YASS get them stats together.
You, Jimmy and Kim Kardashian better get dem UK stats together for us.

Slightly correct.
Yes the release dates are Tuesday; however, a full tracking week is from Monday to Sunday which is why I'm glad Nicki is pulling a PF and releasing to get 7 FULL days compared to the typical 6 days everyone usually gets with Tuesday releases

No I meant how the boxset was more like a fan item. Remember, the actual compilation album came out a couple of weeks before.

Bey's seems more like a fan bundle, you know?

What cut scenes?

Why would anyone release on a Tuesday when they could get the full tracking week?

Doesn't make sense

It's just US industry practice.

Oop. You right.
so that means that it is confirmed. I thought that was a rumor. Either way, if it's beyonce or eminem the biggest threat she has is Down Directions 2nd week which should not be a problem if she promotes this album correctly with her EMA takeover, AMA takeover, talk show/radio takeover and other promo etc.

Give us that 3rd single masterpiece girl...

You are right. It makes no sense; however, that's how its done in the states. to me I don't know why they don't just release albums from Monday-Sunday and release the numbers/figures Monday morning and the charts monday evening.

this 6 day thing is weird because the remaining weeks track 7 days but they are obviously declined in sales. Welp, our girl is getting 7 days so that 300k in the US is much more achievable.

Why hasnt she put out a pre order or revelaed the tracklist or cover or anything yet? This wait is killing me, atleast give us the tracklist or something.

It's been quite quiet...keep your eyes and ears open for new tea over the next 7 days

So the 2nd week wouldn't have a big drop?

Hopefully she announces something soon. The time is right.

Within the next 2 weeks. (Hopefully)

Within 7 days me thinks.

I still have over a month left of this sabbatical.

Starting my sabbatical on the 20th. It's going to be so hard, especially with a new single & new features coming.

Oh god. I won't be able to deal with the new information. I hope I'm sitting when it comes.
