As we approach the end of the year, NO album had gone platinum yet in 2014…and here Taylor Swift comes and does so in a week. Go ‘head, Tay Tay! The young singer’s fourth studio album 1989 has officially sold 1.287 million units in the week ending November 2, making for not only the biggest sales week this year, but the biggest sales week for ANY artist since Eminem’s The Eminem Show in 2002! That’s over a decade ago! Crazy! Get the full top 10 below.
Billboard’s Top 10 Album Sales, Week Ending 10/26/14 … Congrats To T.I. & Logic On Top 3 Debuts!
It was neck-in-neck all week, but T.I. inched past newcomer Logic in the last hour, and came out just above him on the Billboard 200 this week. Tip’s new Paperwork sold 80k copies for the number 2 spot, while Logic came in at number 4 with 73k copies sold of Under Pressure. It’s kind of crazy considering Logic has NO airplay and is a newbie in the game, so he definitely should be proud of such a great debut! Get the full top 10 below.
Billboard’s Top 10 Album Sales, Week Ending 9/14/14 … Congrats To Lecrae & Jhene Aiko On The #1 & #3 Debuts!
For the first week in like, forever…the Frozen soundtrack has finally been knocked out of the top 10! In its place are tons of debuts from some of our favorite artists, including Jhene Aiko coming in at number 3 with first-week sales of 70k for Souled Out. Holding down the top spot is “Christian hip-hop” rapper Lecrae, whose Anomaly did a solid 88k in its first week, and makes for the first title to crown both Gospel Albums and the Billboard 200, and just the fifth set to lead both Christian Albums and the Billboard 200. Congrats! Get the full top 10 below.
