HDD is reporting that Rick Ross’ second album of the year Hood Billionaire is currently projected to sell 60k-65k in its first week (excluding factoring in the new Billboard format where they also count single sales and album streams). His first album Mastermind that was released at the top of the year sold 184,726 so this is quite a significant drop down in numbers.
Shady XV compilation album backed by the mighty Eminem will move 140-150k in its first week and should be good for a #1 debut on Billboard 200.
Hood Billionaire is available for purchase here and stream here.
UPDATE: Final sales are —
Shady XV 148,000 (138,000 album sales)
Hood Billionaire 79,000 (74,000 album sales)
Beyonce: More Only (EP) 71,000 (43,000 album sales)
