First-Week Sales: Pusha T, Miley Cyrus & Danny Brown

[JordanWearinThe45]

It looks like Pusha T got the support he deserved for his debut solo album. According to Billboard, My Name Is My Name debuts at No. 4 in the Billboard 200 this week having sold a healthy 75,000 first-week copies. Not only comfortably meeting its projected amount, that’s also 3,000 more than what G.O.O.D. Music label mate Big Sean achieved in his opening week with Hall of Fame.

Topping the chart this week is Miley Cyrus’ Bangerz, which sold 270,000 units. Despite being her first album to boast both No. 1 and No. 2 singles (“Wrecking Ball” and “We Can’t Stop,” respectively), not to mention her unescapable presence in the media, it still couldn’t top 2008′s Breakout, which movied a considerable 371,000 first-week copies.

Meanwhile, Drake’s Nothing Was the Same remains in the top 3 with an additional83,000 copies sold in its third week on the chart. Indie favorite Danny Brown scores his first top 20 album with his widely acclaimed Old, which sold 15,000 copies to claim the No. 17 spot.

Miley try to go full ratchet then swing back to dirty pop, and it worked but it didn't. Let's see if she sells like Rihanna.

I GUESS THE FULL RATCHET MAKEOVER DID JACK FOR MISS CYRUS.
WAS SO WORRIED ABOUT IMAGE THAT SHE FORGOT ABOUT THE QUALITY OF HER MUSIC!!!!!
IT IS WHAT IT IS

 

[L&HH]

Miley's are surprisingly low, those singles are huge hits right now. she probably recouped and them some off of We Cant Stop alone so it aint that much of a L.

Pusha T, they need to push No Regrets as a single
