Sales Predictions: Brandy Aims For Top 5 Debut With ‘Two Eleven’

Written by TriniTrent | Filed under Brandy,Charts

All of Brandy’s hard work is about to result in a minor victory for the singer. Indeed, early sales predictions indicate that her new album, ‘Two Eleven’, will debut within the top 5 of the Billboard 200 next week. Yet, how do those figures compare to those of ’Human’?

‘Two Eleven’ is projected to sell between 65K and 70K copies within the next week, thus securing a position in the top 5 of the Billboard 200. Although these opening numbers fall just short of the 73K that Brandy’s previous album, ‘Human’, sold when it first cracked the charts in 2008, this new top 10 entry will be her first since ‘Afrodisiac’ started at #3 in 2004.

‘Human’ peaked at #15 on the Billboard 200. To date it has sold less than 220K copies in the US and its best-performing single, ‘Right Here (Departed)’, failed to climb higher than #34 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #22 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.

On the other hand, the lead single from ‘Two Eleven’, ‘Put it Down (Ft. Chris Brown)’, has thus far climbed to #70 on the Hot 100 and #3 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs tally. Unfortunately, recent Billboard rule changes will likely prevent the song from peaking higher on the latter lineup.

Brandy is expected to appear on ‘Good Morning America’ (October 18th), ‘Watch What Happens’ (October 18th), ‘The Wendy Williams Show’ (October 19th), ‘LIVE! With Kelly & Michael’ (October 19th) and ‘Piers Morgan Tonight’ (October 19th)’ later this week. Watch the video for ‘Put it Down’ below:

  im saying 100k! Yes i said it! lol
- AM!R
  
  I really hope she sells more than 70k because this album deserves it. Its absolutely gorgeous and more people need to buy it, but I think word of mouth will give this album some legs in the long run.

  wow her album deserves to do better it was very good
- Ugh
  
  She deserves more than this. She really does.
- LouLou
  
  Wow are you serious? If this album sells under 70k, I blame the label. The album is sold out in so many stores and even sold out on the freakin walmart site. Walmart ! I can’t believe this.
  - Antwan
    
    Although their usually accurate, I think their predictions will be off this time. I will say around 80-100k.

    She’s only been in the game 18 years stupid. And just because majority of the buying public is hearing impaired takes nothing away from the Vocal Bible. She is amazing!

  It’s funny to me how they go changing Billboard rules when they see a threat on the horizon. Brandy is an icon. She has nothing else to prove with 50 million records sold worldwide. She has a number one album with TWO ELEVEN and that’s all that matters. Also people, remember to buy multiple records on different receipts. If you buy three albums, you should have three different receipts for each one. This industry is trying to ruin pure R&B, don’t fall for it.

  I think she’ll sell a few more thousand than that.
  
  I’m still seething at the mess they made of the R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and the newly-formed R&B Songs chart

  LETS MAKE THIS ALBUM PLATINUM STARZ!!! SUPPORT GO BUY THIS ALBUM, TWICE !
  
  This Album is it! This album is a true reflection as to why she’s a multiplatinum-selling recording artist. I commend her on a unique and pure structure of Real Music! ComeBack of the Decade! Brandy remained committed to her own sound on this album, and connected with each track! She sounds dedicated to making Hit Records again! This is what your fans need! (The #Starz @EuroYellaDude on Twitter She didn’t attempt to cross over to PoP, She keeps it 100% R&B!
  
  I love Brandy’s Raspy vocals and how she understands and knows her control of her powerful lower registry! Alot of people have posted opinions about the track “Music” but its actually one of my favorites. I wouldn’t be surprised if the track “Music” became a single, She showcases her appeal to use her falsetto, and give brillant Ad Libs with an old school funk to this Great Song! I see a possible video! If you read this post, & you haven’t gotten #TWOELEVEN Yet, do yourself a favor and support this project! She delivered hands down 5 Stars! In my Rating!

  This album is beautiful and I think with all the appearances she has scheduled she can easily pull 100K+. If you want true R&B than this album is for you…plain and simple!!!
