Wow, aren't her 2nd week drops usually around 80%? this is really good.

Joanne slaying at #2 on US iKoons!

Well the sales drop is close to 80% from what I understand

And did 96k SPS which is way better than what Joanne is predicted to do.

Anti did 52k in its second full week with pure sales and 96k SPS, if you're gonna attempt to make a comparison at least state the facts.

it had a physical release the 2nd week which helped lessened the decline.

OT: this is a really good drop for gaga considering her previous ones (not counting C2C) have been in the -80% range

!!!! But it's the Monsters, they've been hell bent on trying to bring Rih down all year. Even if it's with a lie

Not this thread being reported

Yas Gaga!

Regardless, there's no reason why Joanne is predicted to sell less in its second full week than Anti did in its second full week when she promoted it more than Rihanna has promoted in the last six months. It's not bad but I just don't like that they're trying bash Rihanna with inaccurate info to uplift Gaga.

Slay gsgss

Joanne #2 on iTunes

65k is just alright, I guess

And even in its third full week, Anti had a higher SPS number and roughly the same in pure sales as Gaga is predicted to sell in her second week.

So it's ok now to compare her to 2 small artists, one that's way PST her prime and an album that had 1.4 million copies given away in the previous week?

If that's the calibre you want to compare to. Then ok. She's doing amazing.

You guys are reaching to the extreme at this point, I don't know what you're expecting. There is only one other female artist that has had a higher 2nd week this year, with a completely different project/circumstance.

Besides, this is her lowest 2nd week drop.....again, with no single on the radio and her not even being in the country right now. This is a fine 2nd week.

Nobody's reaching. All I did was correct the user in this thread that was spreading false information and a song on the radio has absolutely nothing to do with album sales. Beyoncé didn't have a song on the radio and Work wasn't even #1 at the time and it hadn't reached its full potential at that point. Like I said, the numbers are okay and I'm simply correcting inaccurate information.

And there are two female artists with a higher second week.
