Not a surprise: On the strength of 115,000 sales, the “Frozen” soundtrack claimed a twelfth week atop the Billboard 200 album sales chart.<\/p>\n
Surprise: Despite the vast buzz and early projections, Iggy Azalea’s “The New Classic” did not claim the chart’s second position.<\/p>\n
That honor instead went to Future’s “Honest,” which moved 53,000 copies in its inaugural week. It bested Azalea’s “Classic” by less than 1000 copies.<\/p>\n
According to Billboard, Future’s release proved to be the most popular physical album. While buyers purchased 26,000 physical copies of his “Honest,” they only bought approximately 10,000 of Azalea’s album.<\/p>\n
Azalea, however, dominated in digital sales. Her total of more than 42,000 topped the 27,000 downloads garnered by the Future album.<\/p>\n
