So the world’s biggest boy group are back this Friday with their 5th studio album titled ‘Be’. What are your predictions for its opening week? Personally considering the huge success of Dynamite (and the fact that it’s included on the album and still going strong) and also Christmas sales, I can see this marking their biggest debut yet. The big question is will it become the second-fastest selling album of the year? I say second as I don’t see them topping AD/DC’s set-to-be huge opening this week. The tracklist can be found below, I’m really excited for ‘Life Goes On’ as it is said to be “classic BTS” - their first number-one single perhaps?

Who are AD/DC? :blink: :blink: :P

Obviously it will be huge, do they sell well on physicals? I’ve just seen the deluxe version is £49.99 on HMV :blink:
I think they’ll sell more than their last album but less than what Kylie, Gaga and Bruce did maybes just under 50k like what Little Mix managed but with a #1 debut.

Yeah I’m thinking a number-one debut with around 48k

how much did they do last Feb with their latest?

37k

I think they could easily do 50-60K if they already did 37K on Feb

considering now is Q4 and they've had a big proper hit this time

#1 with 44,284 copies. Approximately xo
Forgot they had an album in feb it’s like an old chart act have two albums in one year, this could do double the first album this year

I don’t see Life Goes On making too much of a splash as it is a ballad in Korean, however still have high hopes for the album to perform really well

^not sure, I just checked and last time their updates were very very irregular and weird,

like 3k one day, 7k next day, 500 copies the next...

BTS - Map of the Soul : 7 daily sales using the midweek updates

 

Monday sales: +7.4k

Tuesday sales: +2.7k

Wednesday sales: +1.7k

Thursday sales + upweighted data: +2.3k

 

Not a particularly erratic pattern? Just an unsurprisingly frontloaded release.
