I think the only real competition there is Rihanna. And Taylor Swift, ofc. And I think lots of the others (at least P!nk and Carly Rae) will have released their albums long before we get K$'s.
I'm more concerned about comeback albums from hip hop artists (Missy Elliott, Dr. Dre, Wu-Tang Clan, etc etc.) and old rock bands (I've heard that KISS, Slayer, Guns N' Roses, and Metallica are all scheduled to release either late this year or early next). All of these acts have huge, built-in fanbases, and sales in both genres are usually far more front-loaded than in pop.
M.I.A., MGMT, and especially Mariah Carey are also ones to worry about.
