HITS 7/22: Bad Bunny #1 100k, Lizzo #2 66k

2022 NEW RELEASES (AND ANOTHER BUNNY BENCHMARK)

m.hitsdailydouble.com/news&id=332246&title=NEW-RELEASES-%28AND-ANOTHER-BUNNY-BENCHMARK%29

The #1 spot on Friday's HITS Top 50 will likely once again belong to Bad Bunny. His Un Verano Sin Ti (Rimas) may once again finish the week over 100k. After opening in May with 274k, the album, now in its 11th week, has yet to fall below the six-digit threshold. Another 100k will put the project at 1.6m YTD, eclipsing the Encanto soundtrack to become the biggest album of 2022 thus far.

Here's how the week's new releases are looking, including new sets from BTS member J-Hope and genre-blurring breakout Steve Lacy, who's already generating Grammy buzz.

Lizzo (Nice Life/Atlantic) 75-85k
Steve Lacy (L-M/RCA) 29-33k
J-Hope (Big Hit/Geffen) 21-25k
Yo Gotti, Moneybagg Yo & CMG The Label (CMG/N-Less/Interscope) 21-24k

In political news, jury selection is underway for the Steve Bannon contempt-of-Congress trial, and due to the proximity of the defendant, potential jurors are already asking about the availability of "whole body" hand sanitizer.

That's a career best for Lizzo but hardly anything to celebrate imo. The three hits she's had only translated to a 40k bump from her last album...

I guess the pre-Tik Tok reception of ADT tells the real story (she lives or dies commercially with the hits, there's still not a big dedicated fanbase).

[Envoirment]

Really good numbers for Lizzo! Hopefully the album will have some good legs and she'll have a couple more successful singles from it.

[Wavey✨️]

She was independent with two albums before she got a deal with Atlantic. She's now on her 2nd major album/4th overall, and she's doubled the sales. I'd say it's good growth. The singles will keep the album afloat.

Well if Cuz I Love You/Tempo/Juice are any indication...

[recordyear]

Actually Lizzo has a somewhat dedicated fanbase as the pure sales of the album look like to be decently strong (it's above Luke Combs' and Carrie Underwood's albums in iTunes pre-order chart since it is up for pre-order).

[Baby Yoda Hot100Fan]

^Cuz I Love You got almost 60% (24k out of 41k) of its first week's SPS from pure sales. We'll see what the distribution is for Special.

[shayonce]

HDD updated lizzo's number with 65-75k.
probably 5~60k sales + 15k ish SEA.

btw she has..
7 Vinyls ($24.98)
3 Box Sets ($55~85)
3 Cassettes ($14.98~$21)
3 CDs ($10)

[recordyear]

~68% of Lizzo's SPS is pure sales.

[NeRD]

This is about what I had in mind for Lizzo's numbers. We'll see how it holds up.

[slw84]

The pure sales are good for Lizzo but the streams not as much. I'm not sure this will hold up but good for Lizzo.

[Rican@]

Personally I thought she should have moved 100K easily. Her pre-order has been up since the single dropped. Quite surprised that she barely pushing above 60K. People aren’t anticipating nothing these days.
