As previously reported, pop superstar P!nk is likely on course for her first No. 1 on the Billboard 200. The artist's new album, "The Truth About Love," is set for a chart-topping debut next week.
Industry sources suggest that the set may move more than 230,000 copies by the end of the tracking week on Sept. 23.
The new Billboard 200 chart's top 10 will be revealed on the morning of Sept. 26.
The Kanye West-presented compilation from G.O.O.D. Music, "Cruel Summer," is likely to bow in the No. 2 position with perhaps 190,000 copies sold.
