Tragic

Thats what happens when you make a boring ass album in an attempt to be edgy

If he's declining before he gets done with his first week imagine the 2nd week drop

Zayn stays winning. He's talented, successful, rich, and hot.

[IBeMe]

it's ok lol it's his first solo album. he is growing and gaining a different type of audience plus a lot of 1D stans have not yet forgiven him for leaving the group.
by album #2 he will have won them over or w/e

plus 100k+ is not so bad. especially since he is a streaming force truly the male rihanna

Yes, let's compare 1D (a group that has been out for 5/6 years) and their 5th album to Zayn's debut album after ONE single. Plus 1D had the whole Zayn leaving publicity./CENTER]

Lol Zayn actually had the advantage.

I knew She wouldn't do as well as AWBAH or RS

But Slay Michelle better get that top 2 debut

[Wink]

RCA is ******. Where is Zayn promo?

[Bloomers]

Even though Zayn's projections went down, they're still alright. Looks like he'll do more than two times the next highest, so that's something in a diminished market.

Also, I downloaded the new Anthony Hamilton and Amon Amarth album this week. Surprised to see them in the top 15 here.

Part of Me and Harlem Shake, correct?

But if I recall correctly, Harlem Shake's #1 debut was granted due to a Hot 100 rule change for the inclusion of youtube streams, so it doesn't quite relate to this topic.

As for Katy, Roar was basically a #1 debut (557,000 copies sold first week) and Prism debut with a very healthy 286k.

We R Who We R, not Part of Me.

never thought i´d see anyone here even knowing about them

[WeFoundTrouble]

Hopefully Gwen can push to ~18K second week, that'd be awesome

[abrahamjmr]

I thought Zayn was going to be a great seller.

[ForeverNow90]

So next week it'll be:

DVSN vs. Big Sean + Jhené vs Lukas Graham

I hope either dvsn or Twenty88 get it
