    NEW NEW UPDATE !!!!!!

    550K SPS !! INCLUDING 325K PURE SALES


    Kendrick Lamar will not only best Drake's first-week total for the top debut of the year—he'll do it by a substantial margin.

    d---. will surpass 300 million streams; it's only the second title to do so in a single week. The first, of course, was Drake's More Life with 385 million streams in the week ending 3/23/17. With album sales projecting to 325k (100k more than More Life), our SPS projection is now 550k, giving Kendrick, Top Dawg's TDE crew and Team Interscope the year's top debut by a decisive margin.

    Combined album and track sales for d---. will make up more than 60% of the first-week total. More Life's sales represented less than 50% of its first week.

    UPDATE 2

    DRAKE IS LIKELY TO BE HANDED HIS L

    around 510K-520 SPS
    more than 300K pure sales!!!!

    Based on today’s numbers it appears Kendrick Lamar will beat Drake’s record for the year’s biggest debut. The TDE/Interscope star’s d---. is now looking to bow at about 510-520k SPS, surpassing the 505k for Drake’s More LIfe; it’s already eclipsed More Life in sales. While the race remains tight, Kendrick has emerged as the favorite. Stay tuned

    KENDRICK'S 300 MILLION (UPDATE) - HITSDAILYDOUBLE


    Kendrick Lamar (TDE/Interscope) 480-510k SPS (280-305k album)
    Kendrick Lamar will become the first artist other than Drake to collect more than 200 million streams for an album in a single week. And it's now looking like the set could reach heights as high as 300m. This would be only the second time since we’ve been monitoring streams that tracks from an album have been streamed over 300m times.
    The first, of course, was with Drake’s More Life only a few weeks ago, which pulled in 385m streams; More Life scored the year’s biggest debut with 505k.
    Tracks from d---. (TDE/Interscope) have racked up 150m combined streams at Spotify and Apple Music thus far. The d---. tracks occupy nine of the Top 10 slots on Spotify and the Top 11 slots on Apple Music.
    Could this streaming explosion put d---. (TDE/Interscope) in position to equal or surpass Drizzy’s 2017 record of 505k in first-week SPS?


    around 480K-510K SPS

    NEW Update confirming the numbers 4/19
    AN APPROPRIATELY d---ed, POST-EASTER TOP 20
    This puts Lamar in a close race for the year’s top debut, currently held by More Life with 505k. We’ll update daily as the race tightens. Here’s how things look at midweek:

    SPS:
    * Kendrick Lamar (TDE/Interscope) 490-515k SPS, 290-310k albums

    BILLBOARD : old numbers BEFORE UPDATE

    [​IMG]

    Kendrick Lamar is on course to earn his third No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 chart next week with d---. The new set, which was released on April 14 through Top Dawg/Aftermath/Interscope Records, could earn around 475,000 equivalent album units in the week ending April 20, according to industry forecasters.

    If d---. starts as expected, it will earn the second-largest week for an album of 2017, behind only the debut of Drake’s More Life, which launched with 505,000 units on the April 8-dated ranking, according to Nielsen Music.

    Kendrick only broke the record cause he might've subliminally dissed Big Sean on a freestyle that didn't make the record. :lmaooo:

    NEW NEW UPDATE

    550K SPS !! INCLUDING 325K PURE SALES


    Kendrick Lamar will not only best Drake's first-week total for the top debut of the year—he'll do it by a substantial margin.

    d---. will surpass 300 million streams; it's only the second title to do so in a single week. The first, of course, was Drake's More Life with 385 million streams in the week ending 3/23/17. With album sales projecting to 325k (100k more than More Life), our SPS projection is now 550k, giving Kendrick, Top Dawg's TDE crew and Team Interscope the year's top debut by a decisive margin.

    Combined album and track sales for d---. will make up more than 60% of the first-week total. More Life's sales represented less than 50% of its first week.

    he also shat on Cole pure sales.
