ScHoolboy Q’s “Blank Face LP” has a solid chance of claiming #1 on this coming week’s Top Album Sales chart. Drake’s “Views” is meanwhile set to regain the crown on the Billboard 200 consumption chart.<\/p>\n
Based on opening day sales data, Hits Daily Double projects “Blank Face” to sell 50-55,000 pure US copies during the July 8-14 tracking week. Such a sales tally would easily rank as the week’s best for a new release.<\/p>\n
If Blink-182’s “California” falls by at least 70% in week two, a 50-55K sales total would also be enough to earn “Blank Face LP” #1 on the overall Top Album Sales chart.<\/p>\n
With TEA (track sales\/10) and SEA (track streams\/1500) added to the pure sales total, Hits expects “Blank Face” to generate 63-70,000 in weekly consumption.<\/p>\n
Drake’s “Views,” which should post generate about 90-110,000 in weekly units, is therefore the frontrunner to reclaim #1 on the consumption-oriented Billboard 200. After nine weeks at #1, “Views” ceded the throne to Blink’s album on this past week’s chart.<\/p>\n
