This is well beyond a book! The Weeknd‘s latest new album ‘Starboy’ is predicted to sell between 225,000 and 275,000 units in pure sales and around 350-400,000 with streams. Such numbers will guarantee him the top spot on next week's Billboard 200. Woot woot! 400K in pure sales would have been carnage for him but these numbers are still fab, given today's climate!
If he manages to push 300K in pure sales, I'd definitely say his selling power is up there. Very well deserved. I liked the album. 'Starboy,' which features Kendrick Lamar, Future, and Lana Del Rey, is already #1 on iTunes in 77 countries. He also performed a medley of 'I Feel It Coming' and 'Starboy' during a recent appearance on 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.'
On Black Friday, The Weeknd released his highly-anticipated album 'Starboy.' Stream it below:
