On new album, ‘Chromatica,’ Lady Gaga boldly declares “this is the dancefloor I fought for.” A statement that indeed mirrors her reality.
After embracing a more stripped-back, analogue sound on 2016’s ‘Joanne’ and ‘A Star Is Born’s soundtrack (for which she earned as Oscar), the Pop force makes a grand return to the high-octane sonics that saw her become one of music’s most magnetic talents.
And it appears the move is paying off.
Having hit #5 with lead single ‘Stupid Love,’ she – as at writing – is tipped to top the Hot 100 with follow-up ‘Rain On Me’ featuring Ariana Grande.
Armed with this momentum, will the album itself deliver commercially? The first week sales predictions are here and bring with it an early indication of the answer.
Join us after the jump…
According to Hits Daily Double, ‘Chromatica’ is set to open with:
265,000-285,000
[Sales Plus Streaming]
*********
205,000-220,000
[Pure Sales]
Benefitting from a merchandise + tour ticket bundling, the figures mean ‘Chromatica’ is easily on-course to premiere at #1 on the Billboard 200 tally. A feat that would serve as Gaga’s sixth time atop of the tally.
Not a fan but Congrats Gaga
I stan for Gaga as a talent unlike this generation has seen (see versatility) but this album sucks and still sounds like a chêmsèx Party in a Tent of a field at Pride in Majorca. Hope this era is only 3 singles deep and we get a new Jazz album before Q4 for the residency. I never want this sound from Gaga again 🤷🏾♂️
Lmfao… I knew you were a flake once I saw “jazz album.”
You just exposed how tiny your IQ is. Just because I liked her CTC era does not qualify me as only being into one genre of music. STAY IN SCHOOL and spend less time on this blog. 🖕🏾
This is probably my second favorite album from her since the fame (debut album) I’m not the biggest gaga fan but this album right is 🔥 🔥 🔥. Sour candy & replay are bops !!!!! Welcome back to the dance floor Gaga
yooo we feel the same way. This is her second best album for sure. It’s a love letter to 90s and early 00s house music.
Gaga DID THAT! Best pop artist since 2008. Lot of haters will have to eat shyt
You can eat , if u want bollockhead
Hopefully she thanks Ariana Grande from saving her album from flopping. Without arianas name this would’ve sold 99,003 copies SPS
How dumb does this sound… Ariana fans would have bought the single not the album. The album has more sales than streams…. nice reach
Do you think Rain on me would debut at #1 without Ariana? This album would’ve been DOA if it Ariana wasn’t involved and you know it. Stupid love fell down the charts after 4 weeks. Suck a fat one
@OnlyFacts
For someone who hides under the name OnlyFacts you barely have any to spill.
The ASIB version that Beyoncè was linked too at the time, was an project by Clint Eastwood. In no way or form Gaga came in second.
You are the most miserable person on here. Ariana saved this album and Bradley saved ASIB. Oscars Grammys golden globes record breaking residency and NONE of it was because of Gaga. Seethe in the hell hole from which you spawned you trash.
I mentioned nothing about ASIB or her underwhelming Vegas residency 🤣 BUT, since you brought them up, I will say that Bradley Cooper is responsible for her success in ASIB since her produced it! And let’s not forget he was originally set to cast Beyoncé…but we all know after artpop failed, she got on her knees to get the role. 🤗
Lmao !!! Drag Alternative Facts!!! Such a miserable person lmao. How do you laugh at somebody’s success meanwhile you’re an unsuccessful jealous imbecile.
On what planet? The only song on ASIB with Bradley that works is Shallow with GAGA while ALWAYS REMEMBER US THIS WAY, AND I’LL NEVER LOVE AGAIN work without Bradley.
RAIN ON ME would have worked perfectly fine without Ariana Grande.

You’re kidding right?Ariana has like 3 times more followers yet sells so much less.
Just a reminder that Lady Gaga isn’t a genuine individual and here’s a video of her fake crying that resurfaced on Twitter: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rgOutWNd7Fw
You are like c******. Spreading negativity everwhere.

CHROMATICALLY INCORRECT
And they said nobody was buying albums because of c*****.
Congratulations gaga
This is turning out to be a huge come back for u.
That ariana collaboration was a smart business move
U collaborating with black pink was also smart.
U need those international streams.
Then u added elton John to give u that boost in critical acclaim.
A very smart mix.
My grammy predictions for chromatic
Album of the year
Best pop vocal album (chromatic)
Best pop collaboration (rain on me)
Record of the year (rain on me)
It was because of the tour and merchandise bundles that the figures are so high, just like every other artist who did it. But I’m sure she did get a ton of streams since it’s a good album.
This person has too much time on his hands 😂
What comeback? ASIB was literally a worldwide smash. Stick to spreading fake news about your flop fave.
Worst album of the year, but it’s slay I guess
It’s a great dance album and it’s slaying because it deseves to
İts a crap album for gay liddos
If I was a Gaga haters i would have stopped by now.She keeps proven haters wrong.She is known for longevity in album sales…This will be a good start.
Week 2 sales will be a 90% decrease.
So?
A number one is a number
Hater
Gaga is going to have the number one song and number one album in the country.
Die hater
We love to see it.
🤣🤣🤣
Focus on main pop girl Ariana Grande unfollowing Camila Cabello on Instagram yesterday because she’s racist. Sucks to suck.
Here’s a video of Camila Cabello gushing about Ariana Grande being her good friend yet Ariana unfollowed her on Instagram 🙂 We love to see it https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ChDRD3rfHSE Such a loser
Ariana unfollowed Camila, so?
Does this remove anything from Camila’s life? NO
Will camila stop living?NO
Gurl u really think ur in high school do u?
Ariana stop following on onstagram, so Camila is gonna die or what?
Onlyflops what’s good?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Niggà u better grow the f**** up.
There are more important things happening in the world.
U need to mature.
This is why nobody wants to date u.
U think like a kid. Grow up.
🤣 Susan, drag it!
Ya! She let Britney take the top spot from her with a 4 year old song the delusion is real
Your comment doesn’t even make sense. Nobody is expecting mood ring to chart on billboard. Let me look up your IP address…I’m certain you’re someone else
Only flop I was actually praising Britney 😩🤦🏽♂️
Your name is Erica but you used the “🤦🏽♂️“ emoji??? Hmm, you just exposed yourself.
I don’t give a f u c k 🤷🏽♂️
These are big numbers
Wow. 220k pure sales.
Amazing.
I dont like the look or vibe or sound this era. Gaga has already peaked artistically but I’m happy for her.
Katy u better get with the times.
Jump on one of these new pop girls , so u can get a hit.
WARNING: comments from spam accounts will be removed.
Tour and merchandise bundles.
Spastic idiott, without features this album is flop
GAGA is da Queen. Look at the pure sales # and u know what I’m talking about. Some artists might had huge # of streaming, when it comes to pure sales, this is the real deal! More STAR power to u! Gaga. Hater keep hating and keep crying bout it!
WARNING: comments from spam accounts will be removed.
Congrats! Not my favorite album from her but she’s always been a huge album sales girl. Even in the streaming era, Pulling off those pure sales # is great! The album is still a grower for me tho..
WARNING: comments from spam accounts will be removed.
That’s not true. Both Artpop or Joanne went platinum in sales. Both stalled around 600k
for the people that said she was DONE???? you can eat your words. These are excellent numbers and def coincides with her name. People still love and want to see Gaga. I’m happy for her!
Congratulations!
i guess you children werent around when people were selling upwards of 30 MILLION CDs in the 90’s….on just one album…. Alanis Morissette’s Jagged Little Pill….Shania Twain…Celine, Mariah, Whitney…..and only Adele has had MILLIONS sold from 1 album in physical copies….and you all are over here GAGGING about 200 thousand and call those “great numbers”……
Because times have changed, not comparable
Congrats Ariana & blackpink for saving lady hogatha
Next Monday, June 8th, Gaga will announce the tour is canceled. 69% of these sass calculations are from your ticket bundling. She’s a flop, but it’s covered up by ticket bundling and a high profile collaboration (Similar to racist Camila Cabello).
Sales ^^
So her enigma residency, and the sold out joanne tour were flops in your mind? You need major reality check
😂😂😂😂. Tour Bundles. What a Fraud!!
She’s like Camicky Cabelly. Fraud!!!
She will cancel the tour and she knows it.
U are Bitter, we love to see it
🤣🤣🤣🤣
now show me normani on the charts.
“Crickets”
😭😭
Show me Camicky’s MOM remix on the chart. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Are we recounting Camickys debut sales since the tour was cancelled as I predicted.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why is her cancelled and many others are postponed?
*crickets*
She’s a fraud . Hold your L super tight 🤣🤣
Normani is not on the charts this year but she snagged a Brit Nomination and a Rolling Stone Cover this year. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yo you’re insane. You’re one of those pussyboyy’s that cries on grinder anytime someone asks you for a face pic. You’ve got misdirected anger.
“Normani is not on the charts this year but she snagged a Brit Nomination and a Rolling Stone Cover this year”
None of them were solo.
Brit award sam Smith Impact
Rolling stone cover was not solo.
Megan was on the same cover with f*******, fast forward some few weeks later megan has the number one song in the country while normani is a flop model fenty underwear
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
My oh my remix- 800k views (released 3 weeks ago)
Motivation remix- 600k views(released 7 months ago)
🤣🤣🤣
Cabelly 🤣
That Lunatic called onlyshìts is losing its mind right now in the comment section
We love to see it.
😭🤣🤣🤣
Uncultured rat
U better see a doctor
Mental n** case
You’re the only lunatic we see. You’re quite sad.
Projecting ur insecurities isnt going to cure ur mental illness
U better seek help
TGJ isn’t gonna help u
Not a goid reason to call him the N-word, Clarkson. C’mon, I appreciate your analytical skills but, sometimes, you get injurious. I invite you to rise above pettiness by adding your grain of salt to this musical margarita and bypass the endless provocation-retaliation catch-22. Well-placed shade is delectable from time to time, just ditch the slurs. What do you think?
Congrats I guess. The album isn’t great. But cheating your way to number 1 seems to be the thing to do these days
There is no cheating. This album is to make people dance and that’s exactly what it’s doing.
Anyone selling 200K in pure sales in 2020 is a huge win in my book. I hope she can hit 300k in total
It’s quite easy to sell that much with a tour bundle. The second week sales will prove how much of a flop Gaga is in 2020.
If this prediction holds true, GREAT for Gaga.
REAL SALES
All these essays until u ask.yhe rats where normani is on the billboard hot 100, spotify 100, itunes 100 and then its crickets, library silence.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Now you’re hiding behind Gaga sales?
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Camicky does not have solo achievements this year or last year 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Camicky was outsold by Jhene Aiko, Summer Walker, DaBaby , and many more acts with a small percentage of her budget.
The tour was cancelled due to low demand. 🤣🤣
I will continue to drag you up and down this blog. You have taken many Ls. Hold them tight. The Clown Bites Back. 🤣
Every artist u mentioned has a career, a grammy nomination , a number 1 etc
Normani doesnt have a career, no album, nothing.
All these essays and u still didnt answer my question.
Gurl…
🤭🤭🤭
You are in a manic stage. This isn’t normal behavior. This has nothing to do with Normani. You’re obsessed with her and it’s unnatural. Hopefully your family finds you help.
TGJ will not solve ur problems.
Projecting on a stranger u met on a blog will not solve ur problem
Seek professional advice
Obsessing over a faceless stranger on the internet is insanity
See a doctor
I will pray for u
Love and light. Stay blessed u nasty dirty rat.
Haven’t seen pure like that in a while. Congrats
She’s always been good at pure sales I’m shocked she’s held it for so long
Tour bundles. Aka she’d flop without it
U stupid sewer rat, without tour bundles, she will still sell more than 100k
Her streaming numbers are good for this album.
U seriously need help
I will pray for you
THEE lady Gaga on her 6th album 12 years into her career pulling in these numbers having a top 5 hit and Rain On Me about to hit number 1 and her album about to hit number 1. Ya hate to see it. She has proven everyone wrong every era. They say she’s over and she comes out on top. We love a queen
I see the Moderator has EXPOSED some DUPLICATE accounts from the SAME USER ……………….. 👀
Slaydy Gaga is back!!! Everything is on point and the haters deeeeep down are fuming. 🙂
Chromatica is pop and dance music Genuis!! I love it especially Sine From Above!!!
The worst track on the crappy album.
Lol congrats Gaga. Lot of folks mad because she’s 12 years in and still pulling major numbers their current faves can’t pull even with streaming and merch bundles lol.
The album is trash.
Congrats to Gaga these are great numbers. She’s still doing decent numbers even on her 6th album very impressive.!! Wow six number 1 albums.
Ariana saved her dying career LOL
Flop
