The 20-track set, which follows 2019 debut ‘Over It’ and last’s ‘Life On Earth’ EP, has been the talk of social media since its arrival on November 5.
From its autobiographical lyrics, end of tether anchoring, and a star-studded list of features (Cardi B, SZA, Ciara, and more), ‘Still Over It’ has been drumming up all sorts of buzz.
And it’s reflected in its commercial performance.
For, according to Hits Daily Double, the set is trending towards sales that place it within the highest debuts of this year so far.
As of writing, the project is forecast to launch with sales in the ballpark of 185,000 – 210,000. The numbers are fuelled by streaming, with on-demand streams of the album’s individual tracks soaring towards 225-250m.
It means Walker is set to launch at #1 on the Billboard 200.
Furthermore, it will serve as the songbird’s first chart-topper on the tally, highest first-week numbers, and the biggest debut by a female R&B artist since Beyonce’s ‘Lemonade’ (653k).
