With units from track sales and streams included, it may generate 50-70K in total first-week consumption.<\/p>\n<p>Such a consumption figure would not guarantee a #1 bow, but it would certainly make &#8220;The Gift&#8221; a key contender for the #1 spot. Other potential challengers include Billie Eilish&#8217;s enduring &#8220;WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?&#8221; and Ed Sheeran&#8217;s recently released &#8220;No. 6 Collaborations Project.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The projection is, of course, subject to change. Early projections always have the potential to be rough, and this particular album&#8217;s performance could hinge on buzz over the film.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; On the subject of &#8220;The Lion King,&#8221; Hits Daily Double reports that the official soundtrack is pacing for 11-14K pure sales and 17-20K total units. Given the more direct link, the official soundtrack&#8217;s numbers are even more likely to hinge on reception to the new movie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#8220;The Gift&#8221;
