I attempted to predict the first week sales of Game's R.E.D Album a couple of days ago, and i put it at selling between 180-250k, but that judgement was based on past sales. Now, hits daily double have come up with a projection of the first week sales of The RED Album based on its first day sales. Read below-
That might be the last time you read the names of the West Coast gangsta rapper and the Broadway diva in the same sentence, but they will be the two biggest debuts on next week’s HITS Album sales chart.
Game’s new Interscope release, The R.E.D. Album, is slated to do in the range of 90-95k in sales, according to one-day reports from those music retailers who haven’t closed up shop and set up Ludo Bites pop-up restaurants. It’s the rap star’s first album since 2008’sLAX and stands for his self-declared “Rededication to hip-hop.” And, oh yeah, dropping the "The" from his name. (hitsdailydouble.com)
Men! I hope they are off by a large margin, because this wont be good for Game's career. I can remember Game taunting 50 cent for selling just 150k first week sales of his Before I Self Destruct (2009) album; i was hoping he would do at least 180k. But things might pick up, as his fans are really riding for him on twitter, and some are going on to buy 10-20 copies of his cd just so he can sell a lot of cd's
Game's last album, LAX was in 2008, and it sold 238,000 copies in its first week. the one before that, Dr's Advocate (2006), sold 358k in its first week. And his debut album, The Documentary (2005), sold 586k in its first week. I am still hoping it at least sells 170k.
