September 4, 20204 yr 6ix9ine coming for a successful album isn’t he :( Rolling Stones should beat him to #1 officially though? He only has 2 songs in the top 200 on Apple Music, he's not going to be anywhere near #1, probably low top 10 at absolute most (his last album only got to #30 although that was a midweek release deep into Q4 so not really comparable). I'd assume The Rolling Stones are most likely to be #1 indeed.
September 5, 20204 yr Author Would Goats Head Soup 2020 be a new entry, or re-entry for the original?
September 5, 20204 yr on Apple albums: 1 Nines 2+62 Big Sean 3+18 6ix9ine 9 Declan McKenna 82 The Rollings 91 Hurts Rollings not doing that well on streaming or even downloads but they'll be an easy #1 thanks to the physicals Wouldn't be surprised if they're #1 just on their vinyls alone :D It's a re-issue but has lots of extras even new unreleased songs I believe, so all hardcore RS fans will buy Edited September 5, 20204 yr by Bjork
September 5, 20204 yr You've also got to remember how almost exclusively young his fanbase is 😅 He’s not doing much on Spotify either though. Thanks though I’m 37 and I think he’s great. Maybe 37 is young?

September 5, 20204 yr Author He’s not doing much on Spotify either though. Thanks though I’m 37 and I think he’s great. Maybe 37 is young? The album is #9 on Apple Music which is really good for an indie act of his size. And perhaps! :lol:
September 5, 20204 yr Glass Animals did a lot better although probably a terrible comparison but in the UK Declan’s last album did better than GAs!
September 5, 20204 yr Author Well Glass Animals also do venues double the size of Declan! #9 on Apple is about as high as I'd expect, Sports Team for example (who do the same venues as Declan) got to around #30 on there.
September 5, 20204 yr Yeh maybe a poor comparison - didn’t really look at GAs as that big until this album

September 11, 20204 yr What is a Roachford and why is it ahead of Everything Everything xx Hoping EE can get a new highest charting album (they've peaked at #5 with 2 of their previous albums), their last album debuted with 8.6k so if they can pull off similar numbers again then they will be able to beat everyone except the other new entries (assuming Pop Smoke will again be the highest non new album and he is down to only selling ~8k a week). Obviously expecting Doves to be #1 but #2 for EE doesn't seem entirely implausible? That said, the album before that did over 10k so maybe their opening sales could decline by a few thousand again idk ~

There also doesn't seem to be as much hype for this album. I wouldn't bet against a third #5 album for them!
September 11, 20204 yr Oh yeah for sure they're not as 'big' a name as they once were, just banking on the possibility that they might get beyond #5 this time purely because the sales needed to do so will be so pathetic. x I find it hard to gauge if the hype for them has really subsided that much further since their last album, neither of them produced anything close to a hit single (I guess they have received less Radio 1 support this time which won't help but they don't strike me as an act who get many 'casual' sales anyway). Will be a bit sad if their opening sales take another big dive as I think the singles from this album have all been among their best work to date - not heard the album yet but if the rest of it is as good as the singles have been for me it could be comfortably my album of the year.
