I've noticed that female solo artists that still get decent to very good support from Radio 1 haven't been debuting brilliantly over the past few months. Kelly Clarkson - 6, Charli Xcx - 15, Cheryl - 7, Jessie Ware - 9, Jessie J - 6, Rae Morris - 9 etc. The only ones who have gotten albums in the top 3 are huge international stars like Taylor Swift, Meghan Trainor and Madonna. (Ella Henderson being the only I can think of from the UK).

So I guess Marina is performing similarly to the way female acts often do, just without any support.

Well done to Kendrick! For a second I didn't even think he dropped his new album unexpectedly on iTunes. I thought it was GKMC making a belated rise to #1. laugh.gif In a way I wish that was the case and his second album could début at #1 shortly after. laugh.gif

Was hoping Marina would be top 3 in this update but top 5 is a good start considering she has had no radio support or actually pushed one proper single for this album with a full promo campaign. I will be happy if she can hold onto top 10 by Sunday as I know she will be very front loaded.

Seriously need to just focus on one track, do a radio tour and get them playing it. Electra Heart got to number 1 off the back of Primadonna. This album has plenty of tracks stronger than that IMO. Savages or Blue as the next/first proper single! cheer.gif

The Veronicas grabbing that top 40 album *.* Presumably not many people buying it on Amazon where the CD costs more than £20 :/

Pitbull & Ne-Yo will most likely secure a top 40 placing as they are benefiting from streaming. And how is Hozier ahead of Rihanna and Ellie? He'll fall behind on Sunday as the two are ahead of him on streaming

Pretty big fall for large considering Wossy was on Saturday night!

Hopefully LMD reaches 80k or so!

Nice for the single. But down 12 places for the album? sad.gif Hope it can somehow claw it's way back up for Sunday but at this point, inside the top 30 is what I will be hoping for.

6k for Marina is so depressingly low. So sick of my faves flopping!

Were people really expecting more from Marina? Electra Heart may have gone to #1 but it only did so on sales of about 21k. And that was with a hit single. This has no support and no hit single, so 6k is actually about what I was expecting for this stage.
