Taylor Swift lover makes his debut at number 1 but does not reach the million goals at 885K and ends

Home The music The lover of Taylor Swift makes his debut at number 1 but lacks magic …

Taylor Swift had a chance this week, but her series is over.

Nevertheless, she can not complain about the sale of 885,000 copies of "Lover", her new CD. And 700,000 of them were CDs and downloads. (Well, downloads, you can not buy CDs anywhere.I just tried to buy Lana Del Rey's new CD in Manhattan, and the few existing record stores do not sell it. have vinyl, which does not fit the audio slot of my car.)

Whatever the case may be: Taylor has also recorded three of the five most listened songs last week. On the rest of the chart, you can find most of the "Lover" tracks.

The album number 50 of the week was "Divide", the 2017 edition of Ed Sheeran. It sold 11,545 copies, including 942 CDs and pay downloads. The majority of sales come from streaming.

The Iconology of Missy Elliott sold 17,486 copies. Of these, 10,000 were CDs and downloads. Elliott had a lot of pressure this week from the MTV Video Music Awards.

All this broadcast produces a small amount of revenue for the artists. According to BuzzAngle and hitsdailydouble, the # 1 song on August 21-28 was a song called "Ransom" by Lil Tecca. He made $ 215,775. Half goes to taxes, so you are now at $ 110,000. Then you share that with the record company, the music publisher, the guy who promoted it on Spotify and AppleMusic, and so on. Lil Tecca must keep a second job.

But I keep away from the topic: "Lover" has already been dethroned from number 1. Even though he will break the million mark next week, the Swift album has enjoyed its greatest glory. Digital chews and spits you out, baby.
