Actually insane 90k of the 95k are sales, if she had any kind of stream power the album would be so successful :diane: Though it already is a success :tony:

There's at least 90k white gays in the US, yeah. :huntyga:

OT: actually good for her. She has a dedicated fanbase. Her music is supported by her core fanbase rather than the GP these days but still great that she has that strong core.

Ok, just because Bey‘s TLK: The Gift is doing low numbers doesn‘t mean Madonna is having a huge success. 

Her debut is impressive after 37 years but still.. she fcking went out of BB200 after 2 weeks and that‘s not just because of her missing streaming power. :huntyga:

She was top 10 in the pure sales chart in its second week and #27 (or so) in its third. So yeah, it's basically just streaming.

Well, yes. That might be the reasons she went completely out. But having your record at #27 in the third week.. on the pure sales chart.. in a time where sales are generally low..

I‘m not a hater btw. It‘s just the reality :laughga:

I would imagine the sales without tour bundles would be somewhere between Ed and Bey :reductive:

Bey’s Gift won’t match the pure sales of Madame X in its total run :reductive:
