I know we're all taking this as a joke, and yes I'm laughing too, but these sales are awful.
It makes you think that if Eminem himself can't pull at least 250k from 792k first week, what will happen to our faves, or music in general? Gaga too. We knew she damaged her brand, but to go from 1 million + to less than a quarter of that? It's a scary thought to see the sales absolutely collapsing. And let's not even think about how bad the digital single sales were this week too. I'd say it's just a slow time for music, but this is Q4 and it's around this time where sales should definitely start taking off. And yet, they just aren't.
Hoping Rih/Bey can shed some light on this gloomy situation next year, tbh.
