Rumor 06/13/08 - Plies Projected To Sell 225k First Week

Black Superman · 06-13-2008, 10:22 AM

WAYNE’S WORLD: With a projected total of 940-955k, it appears that Lil Wayne’s Universal Motown debut will come within a whisper of Kanye West’s 957k bow last September—and that’s something, kiddies. For comparison’s sake, the last release to top a million in its first week was Usher in March 2004, with 1.1m, just six weeks after Norah Jones’ 1.02m. One other debut will be in six figures—Plies (Slip N Slide/Atlantic) is trending toward 225-240k. Here’s how the rest of next week’s Top 10 is shaping up as we head into the weekend: #3: Now 28 (Capitol) with 140-150k; #4: Disturbed (Reprise) with 95-100k; #5: Usher (LaFace/ZLG) with 95-100k; #6: the debuting N.E.R.D. (Star Trak/Interscope) with 85-90k; #7: Journey’s Wal-Mart exclusive (Frontiers) with 80-85k; and #8: Alanis Morissette (Maverick/Reprise) with 55-60k; with a three-way battle for the last two slots among My Morning Jacket (ATO), Sex and the City (New Line) and Weezer (DGC/Interscope), all of which will finish in the 40-45k range…unless we’re mistaken.

sales are up lately, first wayne and now plies is doing better than i expected...

Hunger4More · 06-13-2008, 10:27 AM

thats cuz no one tried to leak his shit. his flow is soooooooo wack LMAO

G_Unit_Life · 06-13-2008, 10:29 AM

i think its cause his last album sold slowly and reached gold eventually, but this albums first week is high cause everyone who got his last album eventually is gonna get this the first week, he'll have a real low 2nd week

Black Superman · 06-13-2008, 10:41 AM

lil wayne is helping him too b/c when people go buy his album they'll see plies also so wayne is going to really help out every established artist that dropped june 10th

Bust It Baby Pt. 2 is a lot more well known than the singles G-Unit has put out
