    Physical copies of Kendrick Lamar’s How to p---- a Butterfly are just now arriving in many stores, making today’s projections somewhat tenuous; those projections are likely to grow throughout the week. Here are this week’s key debuts, with both Sales Plus Streaming (SPS) numbers first, followed by albums:

    Kendrick Lamar (TDE/Aftermath/Interscope) 350-375k SPS (300-325k albums)
    Modest Mouse (Epic) 70-7k SPS (65-70k albums)
    Marina & The Diamonds (Atlantic) 45-50k SPS (40-45k albums)
    Sleeping With Sirens (Epitaph) 40-45k SPS (35-40k albums)
    AWOLNATION (Red Bull) 35-40k SPS (30-35k albums)

    It'll do more than that. Still wouldn't be surprised if it hit 500k.


    At least we're done with that 1 mill first week talk.

    All predictions invalid due to the nature of the album release
