Def Jam are such a morons, I mean they keep releasing Rihanna's albums in the same season and the same week that country or other monster sellers release their album I can't!
Speak Now has been selling like 12k per week lately.
She's releasing a live album but I'm sorry to say that she's no threat at all for the time being.
I say Nickelback, their fan base is so loyal and all of their previous albums smashed almost effortlessly.
Probably so. But it comes with a live-dvd/blu-ray. About 1,5mil people have seen her on tour by the time it comes out. You can imagine how many kids put this in their christmas wish-list already. It will debut with 200k minimum.
Mary is usually a powerhouse with first-week sales, but with a horrible first single and barely any promotion, I see about a 100k opening. Definitely not going #1.
