Next week’s chart will feature a two-horse race with Warner Bros. rap-rock Linkin Park’s much-praised, Rick Rubin-produced A Thousand Suns, in the early lead, sporting a projected total of 250-260k. That is none too shabby, though it’s sobering to realize that just three short years ago, Minutes to Midnight moved a total of 623k its first week of release in May ’07.

That’s thanks to one-day sales reports from those retailers wearing their Gaga-approved meat suits in the middle of September.

Right behind the Linkin Park guys is Atlantic R&B tout Trey Songz with Passion, Pain and Pleasure, his fourth album, on target for 220-230k, a substantial increase over his 2009 release, Ready, which moved 131k on its way to a total of 785k.

Where tha fuck did Trey come from? I swear I ain't even heard shit from that dude lately and he nearly outselling Linkin Park? wtf.

But fo real, 260k for LP is piss weak. they fucked up the single.

Does anyone know the tv ratings for the VMAs and Entourage? Coz that could be a wildcard, obviously millions of people would've watched both so its gonna be interesting to see the sales for this week...

I agree. I'm curious to see how much all this really will affect his sales

[AJS2050]

well you guys must take in concideration that the 200k of Linkin Park is only from a period of 2 days of sales not a full week right?

The 250k is whats predicted for the whole week based on the 1st day sales. HDD with have a weekend prediction out soon.

Wow 3rd most watched Vma's ever.

[Alaine]

treyz's numbers is wow he might even snatch that #1

LP's numbers is underwhelming considering their fanbase & the vma effect

[mlf]

Recovery will overtake LA's album in 2 weeks,and will sell about 3.1 million by the end of the year!...its most likely gonna be the best selling album of the year,but watch out,dont forget Taylor Swift's album thats comming out in late october "Speak Now",it will only have 9 weeks to top Recovery's 3 million but it will still be a fresh album in the xmas time ,its possible,if you think about it Taylor Swifts last 2 albums were very successful,her last album has been certified 6x platinum,so dont get to exited about Recovery being the best selling album of the year yet....im givin Recovery a 75% chance

[Alaine]

Taylor's sale will be alright, I used to think she could do 1 million first week but now I don't. Her first single this time clearly not as big as Love Story from Fearless, and lots of ppl have started to realize that all her songs sound the same But she will release in 4th quarter so her sale will still be big, just not record-breaking like most ppl are expecting.
