Tech should crack billboard top 5, maybe as high as 3.

[shaggz17]

No wonder americans like shooting up schools....








or is that still a taboo subject?

na were cool with it....

 

[Kain]

Looks like #5 and especially #3 was just a pipe dream. With a little over half the sales reported, he's only sitting at #7. Won't be taking the top debut spot either. Ronnie Dunn (of Brooks & Dunn) looks to be a lock for that. I guess that could change if the remaining 45% of the sales are in big Tech markets or stores, but... I wouldn't hold your breath. On the "building charts," he usually starts high and as more sales comes in he starts slipping.

when should the numbers be complete

 

[Kain]

I believe the official numbers are usually finalized tonight, and then released sometime Thursday. Mind you though, that the sales excerpt I posted comes from HDD, and their numbers are generally off a little from the official numbers.

 

[lvwytemike]

oh, ive been goin to the billboard site day by day to see if he jumped on there or not, but not as of yet. who is the Maybach Music Group sitting on the top rap albums?
Nevermind, Rick Ross......

 

[L.D.S.]

There's no way he's taking down some of Country's biggest stars.

 

[Asmodeus]

The numbers are usually off like you said, but aren't they normally INFLATED? Meaning he (if trends from the past prove correct) will probably fall more than that even reflects now?

 

[Kain]

Pretty much.

 

[then9ne2007]

Soooo....Tech's not gunna hit 50K is he? Whats it look like he'll get? Pre orders count right?

That's pretty much my reaction to sales charts these days.

 

[Kain]

Should I go grab the rest of the list (which covers the Top 50) so you can have fun with it too?

#4 behind......the book of Mormon soundtrack?!? I'm assuming they got a big boost with the Tony Awards this weekend which would explain why they weren't in early projections.

^Where did you get your numbers from?

I think Adele has went a little over "double diamond(?)" worldwide.

Australia 2× Platinum
Belgium Platinum
Canada 4× Platinum
Denmark Gold
Europe 2× Platinum
Germany Platinum
Italy Gold
Netherlands 5× Platinum
New Zealand 2× Platinum
Poland Platinum
United Kingdom 9× Platinum
United States 2× Platinum

Beat me to it... but what the heck, a more readable version:

Mind you that HDD's numbers aren't official and usually end up a little higher than the actual numbers. There looks to be a big enough gap between #4 and #5 though, that I don't see Tech dropping a spot. Could happen though.

 

[Zer0.MediA]

You have your finger far from the pulse of the community if you didn't know that Book of Mormon soundtrack has been selling like hotcakes.

 

[Zer0.MediA]

Still.. what the fuck is an Adele?

 

[twicked]

I believe it's an old wooden ship.

 

[Zer0.MediA]

PROPS!

 

[KCHustla]

Damn thats a good look for Tech, they actually predicted it pretty acurately. Hopefully they haven't counted pre orders yet but I HIGHLY doubt that.

 

[Madison Kaine]

I believe it's an old wooden ship.
