I remember everyone was calling Kanye's numbers embarrassing when he did 94K first week with no promotion, album being online for two months, the album not having physical copies, not being sold on iTunes, sold only on his site for $20 digital copies, and having no charting songs.
I thought she'd do much more than him with lots of promotion, physical copies, iTunes + iTunes banners, a charting hit, and not being online prior for two months to pirate.
This site also told me Kanye wasn't relevant anymore + hasn't been relevant in years, and Britney is a Pop Legend.

Doesnt she have a banner? I guess she will go higher. And i think Brit has more streaming power so idk. And isn't she gonna perform on the VMA?

Oh, so because of fictional stan wars.  Sad.
Anyways, 95k are fantastic for Britney, and hopefully if Make Me... is a hit it will serve longevity. I hope this gets to 400k-500k in pure sales when the singles run is over.

The 3 debuted around the same time, the same argument the Army is using in this thread to justify her numbers

We're discussing Glory's sales, not BOMT and Oops

Yeah, these numbers aren't great. I guess they're ok for Britney nowadays but she could have pulled in bigger numbers but her team really ****ed her over. First they delayed the first single, released the wrong song for first single, made her reshoot Make Me video that turned out to be her worst video, released PS & Clumsy (two of her worst songs) as promo single then The Late Show putting out that trailer of her lip syncing ... All of this has thrown people off and didn't see any improvement from Britney and its sad because Glory is a great album. Let's cross our fingers that the she slays VMA's because if she doesn't I see the numbers going down.

Girl yes, the sales climate is miles worse now than it was in Q4 2013  It means she's not really declining anymore.

You perfectly know Britney could do Ciara's numbers and they would call it a success

tbh these aren't bad #'s fro Britney and i think they'll rise due to VMA's. but it'll probably be pretty frontloaded.
Barbra is just  impressive. hope she or Frank takes #1
