Magna Carta Holy Grail: Jay Z Sales Prediction Rise / Eyes Half A Million

Published: Friday 12th Jul 2013 by David

Following the well celebrated success of J.Cole’s new LP ‘Born Sinner’, today has brought news that will no doubt see his ROC boss Jay Z celebrate just as much!

Why, you ask?

Good news below…

Thanks to a week long stint on US radio, the performer has seen interest in his new album ‘Magna Carta Holy Grail’ skyrocket, pushing its predicted first week figure well over to the 350,000 to 400,000 unit mark….to half a million units sold.

Indeed, in what will extend his lead on the chart this coming week, the album will sell anything between 450,000 to 500,000 units- likely to reach the latter and claim the #1 spot.

Marking his 13th #1 album, this project will reportedly outperform the 436,000 unit figure scored by 2011’s ‘Watch The Throne‘, and continue to enjoy consistent sales week on week thanks to the launch of his ‘Legends of the Summer Tour‘, kicking off alongside Justin Timberlake on July 14th!

In other chart news, R&B leading lady Ciara has secured two spots on the Billboard Hot 100’s Top 50 this week, by way of her scorching jam ‘Body Party’ and feel good break up anthem ‘I’m Out‘.

This week, ‘Party’ leaps nine spots up from #34 to claim the #25 spot- earning a new peak position and heading to the Top Ten with sales of almost 300,000 units sold thus far.

Meanwhile, in what no do doubt marks excellent news for both she and her collaborator Nicki Minaj, ‘Out’ rockets to #50 days before Ciara’s self titled new album is set to debut at #2 on the Billboard 200!

Well done to all!

    • JOHNVIDAL July 12, 2013

      This post is not about Gaga´s superiority though.

  4. JOHNVIDAL July 12, 2013

    Don´t tell me they are going to update the predictions again and again until he reaches almost 1 million copies like they did with justin Timberlake earlier this year! Please no! LOL

    • S****** Blonde July 12, 2013

      Justin was selling more, if not like he wasn’t selling all that, they just keep updating when the sales are increasing, why are you putting in doubt his success?

    • Super Cisus July 12, 2013

      Shut the hell up with that old flop ass bird in your avatar

      • JOHNVIDAL July 12, 2013

        Flop??? lol she is way more successful than any girl or boy you usually mention hun. And about old… she is 15 years older and with 3 sons but is already looking better than Justin Timberlake. Both Justin and Britney are not aging that well compared to how they looked when they were young, specially in tha face. You don´t know the power of true greats hun. Of course you don´t. All you know is about lessers and basic stars.

  9. rih rox July 12, 2013

    A camel. In a suit.

  10. cake like lady gaga July 12, 2013

    But why would anyone buy this album when its all over the net? I for one downloaded it.

  11. Dev July 12, 2013

    This album is catchy but generic like a diddy album. Jay didn’t break any boundaries and used the same artists to get maximum interest and sales, I mean, he has Melanie Fiona, Bridget Kelly, Alexia Jordan but instead uses his wife over and over and Justin, hail, he even has Rita who is trying to catch a US break. This album will sell big but not because its good, great or groundbreaking but because its generic will all the “big hitters”

    • Pour It Up July 12, 2013

      I dont think his intention was to break boundaries he kinda said that himself. He was honest and said it deffo is not the best album hes done and ranked it like 5th

  12. Pour It Up July 12, 2013

    Jay Z can sell regardless

  13. . : : h 2 o : : . July 12, 2013

    I can’t… I can’t @ the Slayage!!!

    The Carters>>>>>>>>>

  14. The Boy Toy July 12, 2013

    Lol @ the Ciara stans reappearing slowly but surely. You guys were sorely missed the other day. 😆

  15. BITCHPLEASEEEEE July 12, 2013

    LIKE I SAID BEFORE I DON’T TRUST JAYZ WITH HIS ILLUMINATI S***. THIS ISN’T LEGAL AND SO NOT FAIR ON OTHERS. 🙁

  16. DIGGER BEY July 12, 2013

    My Avi is SLAYING! KING JAY sold on name alone! Not to many people can do that. Might of a fact, only a handful of artists n the game can do that and both KING JAY & KING B are one. The man is Legendary! Why others are running around performing left and right and releasing a song a day. KING JAY just did a couple radio interviews and SHUT THE SH*T! I know u wish ur favs could create so much SLAYAGE! #THE ROYAL CARTERS

  17. Brazilian Beyonce!!! July 12, 2013

    A camel that made your fave tbh.

    • THE GREAT LACEFRONCE. July 12, 2013

      HO STFU!!!

      Queen Rihanna >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Camel-Z!

      #DEAL

  19. lol July 12, 2013

    When will Rihanna ever open with this much?

    • . : : h 2 o : : . July 12, 2013

      She can’t

    • ^AKA^ July 12, 2013

      When will Jay Z open with more than 100+ k internationally? When will he finally get a hit on his own since all his hits are featuring songs (Crazy In Love/Umbrella etc. etc.)?
      WORLDWIDE is the key world, not LOCAL. Who cares about just 4.52% of world population aka The USA anyway when 95+ % of people in this world live outside of it?

      • Vandrea July 12, 2013

        As if Rihanna’s “WORLDWIDE” numbers culminate into blockbuster sales. The average Jay-Z album still altogether outsells the average Rihanna album, so really it doesn’t matter where most of those sales ultimately come from. Rihanna fans kill me trying to brag about being “worldwide,” despite her final numbers still being less than huge. I’d take a 8 million seller where 80-90% of it came from U.S., over a 4 million seller where the sales are divided up amongst different regions. Who cares?

    • The Boy Toy July 12, 2013

      Lmao! Rihanna is in the CLIQUE! They could make it happen if they wanted to, trust me.

  20. Lou July 12, 2013

    • The Boy Toy July 12, 2013

    Beyoncé scrapped an album of new material, according to Diplo.
    The producer – who worked on the star’s upcoming fifth collection – revealed that his submissions haven’t made the final cut as the record was cancelled and Beyoncé started work on a new collection.
    “I just did two songs for her new album, well, I tried,” Diplo told The Sun. “I think she scrapped the record.”
    He added: “The record was supposed to be done and they have been hitting me up for brand new ideas.
    “I like to work from scratch, [but] sometimes I get called in to fix records.”

    • The Boy Toy July 12, 2013

      If it didn’t come from Beyonces mouth (as if she EVER speaks on anything), the hive won’t believe it. 😆 #thedelusion

  27. DIGGER BEY July 12, 2013

    Lmao @ an Rihc*nt calling anybody delusional. People lie all the time on celebrities, saying they said this or that. Who goes around believing everything they hear anyway. Nothing but a dumbass stupid b****. And if he did say it, he clearly said ” I THINK” she scrapped the album. THE QUEEN isn’t gonna give a talk a lot b**** like Diplo album details. He’s just like Neyo. They can’t hold water. B****** are seeeeeeeeeeeething that they don’t know Album Details bwhaahahhahahahahahhahaahhahahahhahahahahahahahha. #FIND UR LIFE

    • Super Cisus July 12, 2013
