I know that Marina isn't a big artist but her album has been on pre-order since last year and some of her instant-grat tracks went Top 10 on iTunes. I thought she'd do more.

Since November or 3 months. And with the state of digital sales every song from an album on preorder can reach itunes top 10, as most have. You can't be so simple minded to attribute shooting to top ten equaling large preorders. Had they stuck around and debuted like Taylor type numbers with her pre-releases you'd have an argument!

Any who really amazing numbers for Marina!!!

That's it for Kendrick

Oh well. I hope the numbers grow

So proud of my fave. Genius campaign for an artist with an album that leaked, and had no promo or radio backing her up, just her loyal fans.

His debut release was released under K. Dot so let's not shade people for being unaware of a barely certified album released under a different stage name.

S80 was definitely released as his birth name and is a great album that everyone should know if they're gonna be hear discussing him.

This. ATRL tries too hard when it comes to rap despite their knowledge only really extends to pop girls. Educate ha.

Did some of you even read the post? The physical discs are JUST being sent to stores. Rappers typically sell more physical cds than digital. The album was released just 2 days ago so this prediction is based purely off digital sales. 350k is great for a digital only release.

To anyone saying the is weak, the release for this got messed up. These are digital only. Even these projection are expected to grow but for a digital release this is still great.

****ing yes for K and Marina.

Haven't heard both but will do later!

[Power]

Marina's number highly exceeded my expectations.

[UNNAMI]

so that's tell us that second week drop by Kendrick will be very small

Wow Marina!!!

I honestly thought 10k would be incredible seeing as she's done no real promotion that would reach people who aren't already fans. 45k is just amazing, so proud of her!!

Seriously shocked about her outselling Charli and Jessie. Makes me really confident in Marina's future career, hopefully her label see these figures and realise they've got a winner with her!

I don't think she could be a big pop star in the US. I think they can intelligently cultivate her presence as an alternative gay-friendly pop act.

Wait at Modest Mouse, Marina and AWOLNATION releasing the same week, this is alternative paradise. Lampshades On Fire, I'm A Ruin and Bad Wolf are so good too

Literally no one in the US has ever heard a Marina song so these #s are impressive for her.

I'm scared for Madonna's 2nd week sales. It's not doing good on Itunes and Kendrick is coming for blood this week.

[TheRealKii]

Kendrick

[Ger-55]

I was expecting 400k from Kendrick but still big numbers

Madonna released an album?

[LilKim]

Kendrick Lamar (TDE/Aftermath/Interscope) 350-375k SPS (300-325k albums)

Well deserved, Immaculate Album. Some REAL Hip-Hop from the new school... One of the only non whack rappers.
