Yesterday, we asked you to vote for which album amongst Rihanna’s ‘Talk That Talk’, Mary J. Blige’s ‘My Life II: The Journey Continues (Act 1)’ and Michael Jackson’s ‘Immortal’ would emerge atop the Billboard 200 next week. However, in a shocking twist of fate, none of these releases are being projected to claim the top spot!
Nickelback have been earmarked to claim the #1 spot on the tally with their ‘Here & Now’ album. The record is on track to sell 225K-250K copies within the next 7 days compared to Rihanna’s ‘Talk That Talk’, which will enter at #2 with sales of 180K-200K.
Mary J. Blige’s ‘My Life II’, on the other hand, is on track to debut at #4 with 120K-140K units. These figures depict a considerable sales dip from her last album, ‘Stronger with Each Tear’, which sold 332K copies in its first week.
Finally, Michael Jackson’s ‘Immortal’ is predicted to sell 50K-60K copies at #7. However, after receiving considerably less promotion from Epic Records than ‘My Life II’ and ‘Talk That Talk’ as well as entailing no new material, the album is performing as expected.
