Hits Daily Double
This Adele album is a mother.
The XL/Columbia U.K. pop diva is rolling sevens with 21, which will spend its seventh week at #1 next week, adding what appears to be another 120-150k to its 1.4 million U.S. total, thanks to Mom’s Day Weekend. That’s based on one-day sales reports from those music retailers who have stopped searching for Osama bin Laden.
Next week, the real battle will be for #2 between a pair of Capitol/EMI entries. The Beastie Boys’ long-awaited Hot Sauce Committee Part Two, the sequel to an album that never officially came out, looks to be in the 100-110k range, the same as the next volume of the Now 38 series on the same label.
Indie stalwart Sub Pop’s indie answer to Crosby, Stills and Nash, Fleet Foxes’ Helplessness Blues is looking at an impressive first-week total of 80-90k, which should be good for Top 4.
American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez’s Island/IDJ bow, Love?, looks to be in the 60-65k range, which might be helped by her performance on Thursday night’s edition of the show.
Reprise’s Fleetwood Mac vet Stevie Nicks, currently on tour with Rod Stewart, comes out with In Your Dreams, her first solo album since 2001’s Trouble in Shangri-La, which should do between 40-45k.
Atlantic R&B crooner Musiq Soulchild is back with his sixth studio album, MusiqInTheMagiq, in the range of 30-35k
Motley Crue’s Nikki Sixx band, Sixx: A.M., is back with the Eleven Seven album, This Is Gonna Hurt, on target for between 25-30k, the same as Epic’s Sade The Ultimate Collection.
So if Hits predicts correctly and based on this info... Here's how the Top 10 should look:
No.1 Adele - 21 (120-150k)
No.2 The Beastie Boys or Now 38 (100-110k)
No.3 Now 38 or The Beastie Boys (100-110k)
No.4 Fleet Foxes (80-90k)
No.5 Jennifer Lopez (60-65k)
No.6 Stevie Nicks (40-45k)
No.7 Musiq Soulchild (30-35k)
No.8 Nikki Sixx Band or Sade (25-30k)
No.9 Sade or Nikki Sixx Band (25-30k)
No10??
This could change slightly but Hits is usually pretty darn close with their numbers...
