Compared to others 300k is good but just look at the drop from BTW even without the Amazon deal yes, yes, she's not as big as she used to be bla bla but that's like a massive drop :smh:

 

We shouldn't be surprised. Applause sold a fourth of what BTW sold in a week.

Thank god applause has been supported a lot by radio. Maybe applause can pull a "Sail" and keep on selling well for a couple of years :ohwell:

I'm gonna have the biggest meltdown in my life, if it debuts only at #2 behind Eminem's 2nd week. Ohh and below MDNA numbers  :nooo:

Oh GOD! If it debuts at No. 2 AND sells less than MDNA's 1st week sales....I will be taking a break from the internet for a month or so.

Best to ignore this and wait a few days to see what the sales of ARTPOP really are

Everyone is letting the Born This Way Sales figures completely warp their expectations; that was an anomaly.

 

Prism sold 266,000, Bangerz sold less than that...even MDNA only sold about 360,000 its first week, and then plummeted.  

 

Gaga's still recovering from the backlash, why would anyone expect her to sell more than 300-400k?  It also hasn't been a great sales year for albums (especially for women for some reason), so that would give her biggest debut for a female this year.

 

300k is a completely respectable number for her.  It's definitely in the ballpark of what I was expecting, and the next few singles should be more mainstream and helps sell albums.  Gaga is playing the long game, ARTPOP should outsell BTW over time.

 

Everyone woosah.

I expect more tbh, but come on don't be so delusional! Gaga is clever enough to make that numbers rise, there's a lot of promo coming, and anyways, the music is good and that's what matters!

You guys call that number bad, I call it biggest female seller of 2013 on the first week :)


Ah, and don't forget the app, that will bring many sales too!

And the pre-orders.

Mark this post, she will sell 500k :) Then you'll talk with me.
