It’s been quite the journey for Sam Smith.
This week brought with it the long-awaited release of new album ‘Love Goes,’ the campaign for which has been in motion since the start of last year.
Smash hit Normani collaboration ‘Dancing With A Stranger’ kicked off the era, which has shape-shifted in earnest from its initial launch in 2019.
Indeed, the project has spawned a variety of singles and experienced a name-change (from ‘To Die For’) due to sensitivities around the current climate.
Still, it’s finally made it to retail and streaming services.
Find out what the LP’s first week prospects look like after the jump…
According to Hits Daily Double, ‘Love Goes’ is on course to premiere with…
40,000-50,000
[Sales Plus Streaming]
********
20,000-25,000
[Pure Sales]
The numbers have Smith eyeing a top 10 debut on the Billboard 200.
Previous effort ‘The Thrill Of It All’ opened at #1 on the same chart in 2017 with first week sales of 237,000. On home soil in the UK, the sophomore set debuted in pole position with 97,328.
Somebody said when you gay you pay
How come lil nas x hit #1??? He’s gay too. Y’all support black gay artist but white. Racist!!! 🤮🤮
Sam Smith came out as gay before he released his first album and he did well.
His second album also did well
He is just annoying
Forcing people to call him “they” and “them”
Gurl, ur only 1 person.
Exactly
He is just annoying and this era is a mess. He should have released something after “Dancing”, which was the best song out of this era.
His wannabe vogueing and flamboyent persona does not seem authentic and he is annoying with it. This in combination with lackluster music and you get the Flop…
Not fair….. Sam sings better than that ponytail girl…. diamond is a bop!!! Y’all just hating gay white boy. 💅🏿💅🏿💅🏿
It needed to be ballad album like his previous 2 albums. He needs to do the adele strategy. The album grew on me actually, but I would of preferred a ballad album.
There are alot of ballads tho!
🙊
The best new artist curse strikes again
Alessia cara
Dua lipa- future nostalgia sold 18k pure sales, debuted at number 4
Chance the rapper.
Megan trainor
Macklemore and ryan Lewis
Alicia keys
Billie eilish with I hate my past I can’t wait to forget her
Dua Lipa is doing just fine, Sam Smith is now on his 7th year In the industry and only now has started underperforming, and Alicia Keys we all know she is around 20 years into a career so that arguments doesn’t really make sense. The others are true though because flops started happening very shortly after they won the award!
Sam Smith is annoying
If only he shut his mouth and just sang, he wouldn’t be in this mess.
He tries too damn hard to be edgy and a gay icon.
His songs are good.
How do u sleep
To die for
Diamonds
These are bops but people are turned of but this whole gender.binary bullshìt
Exactly, speak the truth
Plus how can you buy THEIR album if THEY are that much by themselves? people want a he, a she or a group
“His songs are good” and you list the singles except dancing with a stranger. You are such an undercover Normani stan.
Funny thing is – the Gays hate him
But they love Adam, cause he is authentic while Sam ist just annoying
!!!
Next time shut up and sing.
T’es!
I tonight arianna’s album was not great and neither is Sam smiths…
Sam smith started flopping after collaborating with Normanly 😂🤣😂🤣
That girl is poison
😂
Exactly lmfaooooo
“Dancing with a cursed stranger” lol
Pathetic pretending to be someone else and responding to yourself
He started flopping when he “came out” for the second time 😂 i have a theory radio stations arent taking a chance on getting flack for not referring to him as they or whatever, so they just choose not to play the songs.
Micheal Jackson put a curse on this b****.lol…
lol 😂
I will always pop up on Sam Smith post as I’m obsessed with him, he’s my white Aladdin and I’m his Arabic princess even tho I’m a dude but, I am getting the reassignment surgery soon as I set up my go fund account.
@Clarkson Whitaker, you’re not the least bit witty, you’re stale as open crackers and your mother’s bad breath 😂 You have no flavor that’s #1, your mama gave you no flavor that’s #2 and your daddy should’ve skeeeted on the sheets 😂 Now bye, and avoid closed areas cause your mama got that DRAGON BREATH 🐉 and pure stank coooochiie 🤣 Tell bumpy legs to retire 😂
I found about your family here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLjOD8T49NY
We all know about your Arab family and the incest within your stinky Arab families marring cousins yuck.
Here are some FACTS for you from Wikipedia:
“Cousin marriage, or “consanguinity” (marriages among couples who are related as second cousins or closer),[1] is allowed and often encouraged throughout the Middle East,[2] and in Muslim countries such as Pakistan.[3] As of 2003, an average of 45% of married couples were related in the Arab world.[4] While consanguinity is not unique to the Arab or Islamic world, Arab countries have had “some of the highest rates of consanguineous marriages in the world”.[1] The bint ‘amm marriage, or marriage with one’s father’s brother’s daughter (bint al-‘amm) is especially common, especially in tribal and traditional Muslim communities,[5] where men and women seldom meet potential spouses outside the extended family.[4] Anthropologists have debated the significance of the practice; some view it as the defining feature of the Middle Eastern kinship system while others note that overall rates of cousin marriage have varied sharply between different Middle Eastern communities. In pre-modern times rates of cousin marriage were seldom recorded.[6] In recent times, geneticists have warned that the tradition of cousin marriage over centuries has led to recessive genetic disorders.[4]”
@Clarkson Whitaker, I got you shook and triggered 😂 Didn’t I tell you Arabs have more flavor in their pinky toes than you have on your whole bad body? 😂 You come to this site wanting to BE ME 🤣 You can’t diss me when you wanna be me, you’re clearly retarded, racist and badly formed lol…got you writing ESSAYS, no life and troll status confirmed 😂 Tell bumpy legs to retire, you came out your mama’s stank cooochiie with a permanent stink face 🤣
Ashy bish all you have done is proven how dumb you are once again. Arabs have no flavour, what have Arabs done for this world apart from trying to destroy it? You call me racist when you don’t even have a leg to stand on, all you have done is been racist to white people so yes I will stop and destroy you for that, and you clearly don’t even know what an essay is LOL and you want to criticise people who are retarded you truly are vile.
Give me you Facebook or Instagram name and I can dm you and we can meet up and settle it seeing that you think that I’m scared of you, come on don’t p**** out now. I will come to your have and destroy your whole family believe that.
I know you must be messed up after seeing your mommy stick a big d**** up your daddy a$$ and seeing your uncle f*** the dead corpse of your grandmother.
Exactly what I thought. Sam’s head got a little big and his body got smaller. He’s annoying and he even tried to diss MJ so evidently Sam’s white gay self needed to be humbled.
But MJ was a p***
Once he became a they/them and “non binary,” his career took a free fall.
Firstly, for as many gay ass fairy dust throwing queens and power bottoms that frequent this site daily, you all are pretty damn conservative (and even more ignorant). That being said, Sam Smith’s album is actually pretty good. Where he f***** up was releasing the first single basically 2 YEAR AGO ! Who is waiting two years for an album to drop?! Even HDYS came out a year ago! Like what in the entire mess. At least he’s flopping with grace. Loved the album even though it’s late AS F*CK. 🤦🏾♂️
Hahahahahajajajaj😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Normanly The Clown will never be any Beyonce of 5H or Sam Smith
No beauty. No talent. No ownership. No voice. Aggressive dancing ability. No stadium shows. No critical acclaim. No real love. McDonald shows. And the list goes on in the scroll.
🔥🔥
I see why the 3 Normanly stans are upset at The gorgeous Camila Cabello
Wow at least Sam Smith sold more that 6k. She beat Beyonce sales lmfaoooo
