One of the many who purchased Ariana Grande‘s ‘Problem’ last week?
If so, you are to thank for helping the Urban Pop starlet set a new record on the ‘Billboard Hot 100‘, solidifying her status as one of Pop’s more commercially promising newcomers.
Details below!
Impacting the ‘Hot 100′ at #3, 438,000 purchases of the ‘Problem’ hands it highest opening week number for a new single since Katy Perry’s ‘Roar‘ pounced on the chart with 557,000 units in the August of 2013.
Meanwhile, Mariah Carey’s ‘Me.I Am Mariah…The Elusive Chanteuse‘ suffers a dip in its pre-order sales this week, now sitting at #93 on iTunes US Top 100 Albums tally, now placed one spot beneath Lady GaGa‘s ‘ARTPOP‘, which sold well under 3,000 copies in the last week.
Due out on May 27th, the project’s pre-order sales may see it slip out of the chart if it they do not pick up in the coming hours, giving some indication as to how it may fare once its released to the world in two weeks time.

I think Mariah will do 150-200k in its first week.
Which is solid, but for Mariah, hmmm not the best.

Get it straight dude…
Lmao you guys are really going to compare an album pre order to a single?! It’s so cheap and tacky to try and take away from Ariana’s success by bringing up yet another irrelevant Mariah comparison. Never in my life have I seen a blog compare pre orders to the sales of someone else’s single but I guess you guys are desperate for clicks. I really don’t see why you brought Gaga into this either. This is about Ariana. You’ve probably realised I’m a lamb and probably won’t post my comment but as long as YOU see it and realise how ridiculous you are that’s all that matters. Anyway, congrats to Ariana & Iggy.
One is winning. The other is losing.
One is a legend, the other is a copy cat…
You ain’t lying. @Stephy.
Although I’m talking modern day, not the renaissance era.

You tell ’em MC!!! QUEEN!!! REIGN ON HIGH YOU MAGESTY!!!
OFTEN IMITATE NEVA DUPLICATED!
This Album will go DIAMOND!!!
Wow! The ultimate reach…. A pre order (that was in the top ten for more than one day) is being compared to a single. A single that is of the same style that MC uses. Yet we praise the copy cat because she is new. Talk about going where the wind blows.
How about compare an album that is actually out.
Ultimate low.
RIGHT!? I AM MARIAH CAREY THE ULTIMATE DIVA THE QUEEN OF POP
Or if we are going to compare let’s compare the debuts. Cause as we all know who debut harder and had hits. Y’all say stay current but it’s a current record that non of these females are breaking. They have to create new records because runs on billboard and #1 hits and albums sold are on lock by mariah Carey.
I AM MARIAH CAREY THE ONLY QUEEN OF POP!
Y’all can’t call some irrelevant if people are copying her style. You can’t call someone a flop or constantly shine light on their decline when they have sold more than the people y’all praising. I bet you when the album comes out people will either buy it or download it and as I look at it people will still WAnT and still will listen.
FLOPriah!!!
FLOPiana…
All Mariah has to do is release a last single that’s hot, perform LIVE at the BBMA and the album will skyrocket
When the Skyfalls…
Guys dont forget to get my album on may 27!!!!! or you can also illegally downloaded
DEATH! YOU ARE SOO CRAZY!!!
That isn’t slayriah it’s a troll with the same avi
of course not I am…Marian the elusive chanteuse
#Beautfiul just came on the radio
Please get your own avi and stop fuckingg trolling please. #DumbBitch
Says one of the biggest trolls on here kii
You clearly aren’t the real Molly. And I’ve never trolled so sit down!
I still like you…
Why are we comparing a basic pop girl with a music legend? Lets see how much this girl sells when she’s Mariah’s age. (If she still has a record label at all)
Death you didn’t eve get the avi right because U have Marian to the left corner while she is in the middle of my pic.bye!
Thanks SKYFALL. And crying @ Ariana not making #1.
LOL ARE U CRYING @ MARIAH NOT MAKING #1 EITHER? LOL
Nope already done it 18 times. Ariana = zero
Awww
Sam is just as pathetic as Slayriah. Poor souls. The only way to make themselves feel better is if their shading others or comparing two different generations.
Anyway, congrata to Ariana on her high debut. Also, congrats to Mariah for lasting over 20 years in an industry that discards artists. I hope the album lives up to your legendary status.
So sick of these paid trolls on this site.
Mariah’s album at this rate will do anywhere between 75-125k the 1st wk tbh. Memoirs sold 170k the 1st wk with a platinum Top 10 single and solid promo campaign so what makes y’all think she’ll sell nearly 200k the 1st wk with an album that was pushed back by a whole year, has had 3 failed singles (Triumphant, Letting Go and You’re Mine) and hardly no real promo but a few radio interviews. Mariah should’ve just dropped the album last July and she would’ve did a solid 175k the 1st wk because #Beautiful was a huge hit for Mariah and the album would be pushing at least ARTPOP’s numbers by now (700k US/1.8 mil WW) and possible international tour. I love Mariah and I’m a huge fan of hers, but let’s think realistically now. Mariah’s style of music isn’t commercially relevant in 2014. #Beautiful did well because it had a different sound. I don’t know why Almost Home wasn’t pushed as the lead single in March of 2013, followed by #Beautiful in June/July then You’re Mine in October/November and close the era with Letting Go in February/March of this year. Almost Home and #Beautiful could’ve been huge crossover singles in the US, Asia and Europe and possibly had even gave Mariah her 19th and 20th #1s on the Hot 100 and gave her 2 Grammys. The album would’ve did extremely well off that, a solid 250-300k the 1st wk and she could at pushing PRISM’s numbers (1.3 mil US/3 mil WW). Hopefully Mariah can get her s*** together
Her Magest the Queen, and songbird supreme will rain her wrath down upon these lesser h***!! Once this album is released all others wigs will be thrown into the black hole of kalkutta! They will beg for mercy, cower at her feet, and glorify the goddess Mariah on high!!!!!
DIAMON ALBUM SALES for the Elusive Shantues!!!!
Sam tried it!!! Mariah’s album is not even out! She has no reviews or anything yet and that Ariana single is trash it’s nothing but a talk dirty remix! Call me Ariana finally figures out her identity!
that performance was good!!!
Lets get one thing clear Mariahs not making music for money anymore!!
This blog is so blind to Beyonces bullsh!t so quick to call out others but always fails to admit beyonce is not original but all recycled material (single ladies dance, halo, why dont you love me, if i were a boy) should i go on?
As for Ariana .. Like Mariah said longevity is the name of the game dahhlin!
Sam is just a SAD hater! Since when does he report about PRE ORDERS of artists who debuted in 1990? Where are Mariah Carey´s peers on the charts? LOL what a hater. About Ariana: that song is mediocre. Compare that to what Mariah, Alicia or any other real huge artist were releasing at that age.
Why the hell is the legend Mariah Carey even mentioned in this little biches thread? I guess biting peoples sytle is “IN” these days (i.e. Katy Perry/Lady GaGa, Nicki Minaj/Lil’ Kim, Izzy/Rihanna, Ariana/Mariah Carey… all these biters copy the orignals. I don’t want to hear a duplicator or wannabe…I’d rather listen to the ORIGINAL-the one who already slayed the s*** out of the game with their talent! I’ve already determined that the lame who runs this joint, spam is it? PLEASE go and take a seat with your EDM filled m** player, sit down Mariah Carey hater. It is what it is, Mayday slayday #May27
