Mediatraffic (the same site I got these sales from) uses a vague methodology to rank songs. While with albums, its pure sales from a select number of countries, mediatraffic uses a points system of combined airplay and sales to rank songs worldwide This week DWUW came in at #11 with 169.000 points On 12/28/2013 at 2:38 AM, StevenNYMonster said: How much have her US sales been?

The sales for this album have been steady. It's not "not doing so well" like wut :christmess: It all depends on how much the album cost to put out. Usually when we don't see many video releases from artists after an album release it means that they can't afford making videos for songs. It doesn't matter if it sold well if it also cost a lot, the label is not gonna invest into videos for an album that's not worth it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to remember that Gaga is an established artist, Interscope doesn't pay for all of her sh*t her company does and I guess troy would have managed all of that, idk who does now. Considering some of the discounts she has been able to do there is no way her costs were too big for vids otherwise she would have been making a loss on sales like the black Friday sales. She has sold allot more in shipments anyway and seeing as the album is selling fine they probably won't get allot returned. The idea that one of the top sellers of the year cannot afford to put out a couple of vids is ridiculous. It's the kind of crap someone like Cheng would be writing. I dunno what the delay is about but no it's not a sign of a bad era. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeBean 0 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 This one if definitely going to be a slow burner. Grower not a shower. As the singles gain popularity the sales are gonna hold strong in the 100k a week tbh, and that **** adds up. Slay gags. Anyone who says this album is a flop is ridiculous.

Actually, album sales go to **** in January. Friday will be the last "good" sales week. I predict 150,000 for ARTPOP. Then the Friday after that when sales are reported, we're gonna be seeing some 60k and 70k weeks. On 12/28/2013 at 2:34 PM, Lance Percival said: It all depends on how much the album cost to put out.

If Avril Lavigne and Britney Spears can still make videos like Rock N Roll and Work Bitch with albums that fell out of the Top 40 WW albums in their 3rd weeks and haven't even hit the 400,000 mark yet WW, then I'm pretty sure Gaga has nothing to worry about.

Regardless, Interscope isn't going to suddenly "not care" about their 2nd highest charting album and highest charting female album unless sales were truly tragic.
