Fans of ‘Kiss Me More’ crooner Doja Cat wanted more, and more is exactly what they received courtesy of the deluxe edition of her third studio album, ‘Planet Her.’
Released June 26 (just a day after its original incarnation), the updated version expanded the set’s tracklist to 19 songs and includes appearances from fellow rappers Eve, Gunna, and others. As Cat’s beloved fan base, affectionately called #Kittens, continue to consume the set and its re-release at a historic rate (see: biggest album debut by a female rapper in Spotify history), their hard work has boosted its predicted first-week sale figure.
What’s more, the uptick in activity could also see its lead single – the SZA-assisted ‘Kiss Me More’ – pucker up to kiss the top of the Hot 100.
Look inside to see just how new development has become just what the Dr. Luke doctor ordered.
Doja Cat’s ‘Planet Her’
Revised First-Week Sales (SPS): 110,000
Revised First-Week Sales (Pure): 11,000
Predicted Billboard 200 Debut: #2
Initially predicted to move 100,000 units its first week (as we reported here), industry analysts have updated the LP’s forecast to include deluxe edition sales – a move that packs an additional 10,000 units to its sum.
If the projection rings true, the total is still not enough to surpass the new Tyler, The Creator album (headed to #1 on the Billboard 200 with predicted sales of 185,000 units) but will solidify Doja at #2 with the highest first-week sales of her career yet.
On the Hot 100 side of the fence, however, chart-topping looks a bit more promising for the GRAMMY nominee.
Currently enjoying the second highest-charting hit of her career with the #4-peaked ‘Kiss Me More,’ industry analysts believe the increased streaming and digital downloads of the week will likely move the song to a new peak next week – possibly as high as #1. Its commercial performance is so in line with the tally’s current champion, BTS‘ ‘Butter,’ and other top contender, ‘Bad Habits’ (the comeback single of Ed Sheeran), it could edge out the boys for a victory.
If it bests the competition, ‘Kiss’ will become Cat’s second career Hot 100 #1 single – following 2020’s Nicki Minaj-assisted ‘Say So’ – and SZA’s first.
Keep it locked to That Grape Juice to find out who won the tight race once the news is unveiled Tuesday (July 6).
RCA records will be so happy with this.
Their investment in doja paid of big time.
Some people have IT while some dont *cough “normani ” cough*
Doja is a star. She was born to do this.
If u give ur label number 1 songs, they will invest in u.
If u were a record executive at RCA records, will u still give a f**** about normani, when u already have doja, sza and h.e.r
Normani has been shelved. she’s not a priority at RCA records.
There’s no demand for her music.
RCA has taken f*******’s budget and given it to doja, a real superstar.
It happened to Christina millan in 2006. Def jam took her budget and gave it to Rihanna who was showing more potential .
Pon de replay was a huge top 2
Sos was a number one hit
Def jam saw this and immediately pulled Christina millan budget and started pouring all their resources into Rihanna and it paid off big time.
It wasn’t just Christina milian whose budget got took! 👀 lol
Spill 😉
Yaaaaas Doja! ❤️🔥
Boys and girls, our new IT girl has arrived!
May she be adorned with the best fashion there is. I want LOOKS, I want HITS, I want BEYONCE-TIER PERFORMANCES. I want VISUALS.
We shall end her though when her time is up just as we have made her. Lol.
Congrats Doja!
Freak
When will HER?💀
Flop 😂💯🤳🏽
You just hating because she had a white man as her love interest in her last two videos 💋 Stay mad, racist bish.
Flop heaux 😂🤳🏽💯
Fake laughter to hide the tears. Psychology 101 💋
I love white & black men 💅🏿 As long as they have big packages delivering to my mouth and my other two holesssssss❤️
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Doja i love that woman.
Another black woman crushing Camicky the Clown and her fans. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Remember they said Camicky was the biggest Spotify star. But had to cancel a tour. And without Shawn’s Seniorita she would be dust.
Camicky is smoke and mirrors. No solo hits. 😂😂😂😂not even a top 40 solo hit.
I mean just look at the straight to dvd that her fans were saying was a Hollywood blockbuster
I literally can’t stop laughing
Funny thing, bish, is I agree. But the same sentiment goes for Normani too. Open your eyes and close yo legs.
TYLER DID ALMOST DOUBLE WITH NO PROMO….IF THATS ALL SHE DID HER FIRST WEEK GOOD LUCK TO RCA TRYNA BREAK EVEN
Exactly…they’ll be lucky to recover even a fraction of what the spent on promoting this racist b****. Dumba$$es 😂💯🤳🏽
Bye fakie
So what! Tyler has been around longer and has a bigger fanbase. Male rappers always sell more period. Doja still selling more than most. You don’t see many artists selling over 100K these days. Look at H.E.R. she had more promo than everybody and sold 35k????
LOL THATS THE POINT BUT TYLER ALSO ISNT A MAJOR LABEL ARTIST HE HAS BEEN MOSTLY INDIE UNLIKE THESE GIRLS N PLZ DONT USE THE GENDER THING CUZ MEG CLEARS BOO
Ok and Tyler still outsold Meg. Good News barely scrapped 100k first week but I guess sweetie
Flopmami will never💅🏿 Doja is taking over RCA. Bye f*******, bye SZA🗑
Yaaaaaas 🔥
Her song with the weekend a flop
Happy for Doja. I like her sound and we need some diversity. I’m enjoying what the women of rap are putting out.
