Susan Boyle Likely To Keep T.I. Away From Top Spot In U.S. Pop Album Chart
December 10th, 2010 - 4:30 pm ICT by Sampurn Wire
No one can predict the sale of ‘The Gift’ by Susan Boyle till December 12th. However, last week it sold 271,500 copies, which was 3% more than the earlier week. Till today, ‘The Gift’ has sold 263,000 copies.
In the month of November, Susan faced a tough competition from Kanye West’s new album, which debuted at No 1. T.I. has a record of three albums being at No. 1 and if the latest ‘No Mercy’ can make it to the top, then it will be a record itself. The industry experts are expecting it to get a start in the range of 130,000-140,000.
In 2008, T.I.’s ‘Paper Trail’ had a grand debut of 568,000 copies. The rapper was sent for an 11-month prison term for violation of his probation rule.
Let’s wait for the next week’s sale to know who is ruling the US chart this time. Susan has shown a consistency but T.I. has his line of fan following so we can’t ignore the pressure created by him ‘No Mercy’.
