Title: The US 1st Week Sales Thread
Post by: Wtv on May 17, 2016, 12:39:05 PM
1st week sales is and always has been a hot topic on here, same as everywhere, and with that other topic about Meghan having a big drop with her second album, I wanted to find ouf how other acts have done in the latest 2-3 years, to have a better idea of the current state of the music industry, not just the urban market. So as of today, I'll start with the pop acts, the youngers ones at least. Will be updating with other artists in the days/weeks to come. If anyone wants to add names and numbers, would be welcome.

________

First Week:

Meghan Trainor - Title (2015): 195,000
Ariana Grande -  My Everything (2014): 169,222
Zayn malik - Mind Of Mine (2016): 112,247
Selena Gomez - Revival (2015): 84,907
Gwen Stefani - This Is What The Truth Feels Like (2016): 76,000
Sia - This Is Acting (2016): 67,924
Tori Kelly - Unbreakable Smile (2015): 64,980

Any more pop, newest young acts to add?
