jjbradleynyc Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Just now, jamesshot said: She has had such bad luck with many of her albums and singles. So many that should have reached #1 and were stopped by some random phenom. Not this time! This is true. Ray of Light, Rebel Heart, The Immaculate Collection and Erotica all should have been #1 albums. A shame ugh...but they still sold a ton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolidayGuy Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 90,000 is the sales unit; we don't know the breakdown of physical and digital. It will be No. 1 on Top Album Sales and Internet Albums, most likely. Possibly Digital Albums. Not sure about Vinyl Albums. RH peaked at 2 on the latter.

Rebel Saviour Posted June 23, 2019 Author Share Posted June 23, 2019 90,000 in pure sales is a very solid number and not only for a veteran act in 2019 sales climate. For comparison LIl Nas X is projected to hit number one next week with 70k units and only 4-7k copies in album sales... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolidayGuy Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Most importantly, in terms of this chart, enjoy this moment, in 2019, and, please- no dramatics for next week's chart and the inevitable big drop. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesshot Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 So, did I read correctly that this is the best number in terms of albums sold so far this year for a female act? Yes, @HolidayGuy everyone needs to enjoy this moment. Next week is next week. She has the #1 album in the USA right now. Huge achievement. I think this is the first #1 in the summer (well our summer) since TB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't even reach a tenth fraction of what M has at 37 years into her career. And with the direction the music industry is moving, they will be lucky to even have a career.

jamesshot Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Madonna doesn't need to chart ever again and her legacy, her place atop the music industry, is secure. She will never be not relevant, even after she dies. There will never be any one like her again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
