The inclusion of TEA (track sales\/10) and SEA (track streams\/1500) should yield a consumption tally in the 170-180,000 territory.<\/p>\n<p>The pure sales total should earn &#8220;Shawn Mendes&#8221; #1 on the Billboard Top Album Sales chart, while the consumption figure should yield a #1 bow on the Billboard 200.<\/p>\n<p>Assuming that #1 bow comes to fruition, &#8220;Shawn Mendes&#8221; will become the artist&#8217;s third chart-topping album in as many attempts.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the enthusiasm one would expect for a Shawn Mendes release (particularly an album being hailed as a major step forward in his career), the album appears to be benefiting from a concert ticket\/album promotion.  Albums redeemed via such promotions, as a reminder, count toward sales.<\/p>\n<p>The specific impact of that bundle promotion was unclear at press time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#8220;Shawn Mendes&#8221;
