foklore deluxe singed album has been on sale since Nov.30. you can still buy it from her web store. so we will see signed CD effect for next few wks I guess. but not dramatic as this week. How many fans are left to buy these? Or is it the same people buying them again? Interesting question when most AOTY nominees rn are under 100k total US sales.

Can we just take a moment to appreciate that folklore sold 100k in its 23rd week?! Who is even opening with those numbers?! Just wow. Isn't this a misleading statement/post? I thought a lot of these numbers were due to albums ordered previously just now being shipped? You have a point, but by that same logic we should say evermore sold a lot more copies than Hits is reporting this week because lots of people ordered physical copies that haven’t shipped (or don’t exist yet), but I don’t see anyone arguing this is the case. It’s impressive however you look at it, whether you say folklore sold 100k last week or ~40-60k for each of the last 3 weeks (considering it had ~20k in sales over the past few weeks). In fact I wish they had just shipped more copies last week cause the album missed out on the Billboard top 10 by less than 1k.

I would say it sold more this week than reported; people purchased it this week.

Whatever she sold this week aside, we should find clearing 2 million SPS in this day and age (and with only 1 short-lived single) far more impressive than what she is selling now. I mean the woman has the 2nd most successful album of 2020 and is arguably the biggest female artist of 2020 on her 8th and now 9th album cycle. You want to talk about longevity? That's impressive longevity.

That's impressive longevity. I drove to a Circuit City to buy her debut album on release day. I was 20 years old. She’s been consistently famous now for 15 years. Never, ever could have predicted she’d be the biggest music act of the new millennium.
