Pentatonix's 'Christmas' Album Heading for No. 1 on Billboard 200 Chart

Vocal group Pentatonix is on course for its second No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 chart, as industry forecasters suggest the a cappella act's latest release, the holiday effort A Pentatonix Christmas, could rise to the top of next week’s list. Prognosticators say the album could earn over 175,000 equivalent album units in the week ending Dec. 22. That should be enough to easily take over the top slot, as the next closest competitors will likely be The Weeknd’s Starboy album and Bruno Mars’ 24K Magic, with both albums aiming to earn around 100,000 for the week.

Next week’s highest new entry on the Billboard 200 looks to be Kid Cudi’s latest release, Passion, Pain & Demon Slayin’, which might arrive in the top 10 with over 40,000 units earned.

J. Cole down over 80%

Starboy might go #1 next week too

Pentatonix is pretty much a staple to Christmas music now

Pentatonix is slaying because their talent is incredible and Hallelujah >>>>>

I'm proud of them tbh get those xmas coins!
