BB had 19,000 first week pure sales. It would not have sold 33k with just the streaming because it didn’t do well streaming at all.

 

Ocean I foresee getting 90-100k debut in the USA but with her numbers lately I would not be surprised if 3-4 of the songs did really well streaming. But with the two interludes and the harder to digest tracks the other songs are gonna have to do some heavy carrying to get to 120k.

BB vinyls shipped 2 weeks later. Also the cassettes/CDs. Either one.

I’m assuming those 19,000 came from stores and such.

Still, vinyls always contribute the most towards her sales. I'm sure that she'd have gotten around 50-60k for BB if they were on time.

okay so if i buy it now off her website (digital album), it counts towards presale? dont wanna buy it on itunes anyways bc i wanna own it not just get a license to listen to it.

If you’re going to buy the digital version off her website, I say hold off until release day (Friday).

You can purchase any CD/vinyl on her website that’s marked as “shipping Mar 23/24” and it’ll count, as long as it’s from the US website
