Earl Sweatshirt’s “I Don’t Like S**t” Debuts with 27.5K Sales

Earl Sweatshirt’s second album debuted with a considerably weaker sales total than his first.

“I Don’t Like S**t, I Don’t Go Outside: An Album By Earl Sweatshirt,” the hip-hop artist’s solo album, arrives with pure first-week sales of 27,496 copies.

That dramatically trails the first week mark of Sweatshirt’s 2013 debut “Doris,” which moved 49,000 copies in its inaugural frame.

While “I Don’t Like S**t” got off to a stronger start on the iTunes, it ended up ranking as the week’s overall third-best-selling newcomer. “Kidz Bop 28” and Action Bronson’s “Mr. Wonderful” both moved more copies during the most recent tracking week.

With Track Equivalent Albums (10 single sales = 1 album sale) and Streaming Equivalent Albums (1500 single streams = 1 album sale) included, Nielsen says the album’s total consumption clocked in at 30,772 units.
