Already outsold her previous album in BOTH UK and US.
4.000.000 should be a fact in 6-7 weeks... and after that.... we can be talking about a new single.
I think next week she is going to be below 100K for the first time. But she is going to stabilize in the 85K-95K zone WW, and 25K in the US and the UK....
So as long as that rate goes on... we are good.
Anything below 60K per week WW is to start worrying about... if not... then no worries and let the album sell itself.
If it can be above 60K for another 15-20 weeks after reaching that 4.000.000 mark we can be talking about 5.000.000 WW in just 6 more months.
And to be in August-September with 5.000.000 album sold and probably 5 hit singles... It can make you tour europe with no worries and maybe re-release the album or even go with more than 5 singles from it.
Good outlook
To stabilize in the 90K zone would really be easily possible. Some promo in particular countires is what we need. See, in Germany she performed RR and Rude Boy during the Rated R era, this era she hasnt been there at all. The album is doing great already, but a scandalous performance of S&M would really really really help.
i cannot belive this right now. Now, 5 weeks after the release of S&M video, MTV Germany banned it all of a sudden. What a ****ery, it was airing for 5 weeks and now they really ban it
edit: and the ban promo is impacting already ... S&M is #7 on German itunes (#11 yesterday)
