The Predictions Are In! Taylor Swift’s ‘Midnights’ Album Set to Sell Over 1 MILLION First Week

Published: Saturday 22nd Oct 2022 by Sam

Taylor Swift‘s status as one Pop’s most potent titans is being solidified anew with ‘Midnights’ – her 10th studio album.

The 13-track set arrived on October 21 and has been met with acclaim from both fans and critics.

Boosted by a variety of retail formats, a 7-track add-on pack for streaming platforms (which was packaged as a surprise 20-song ‘3am Edition’), and hype overflowing, all have created the perfect sales storm for the eagerly awaited project.

Find out how tall Taylor is set to stand with her latest effort after the jump…

According to Hits Daily Double, the superstar will easily premiere at #1 on the Billboard 200 with ‘Midnights.’

As for the numbers fuelled that win? Huge. 

Per first-week projects, the album is on-coarse to debut with:

1 Million – 1.2 Million

As reported, the 32-year-old has bulldozed streaming records on both Spotify and Apple Music with the LP, which together with her savvy retail strategy is making for a mega opening.

Should the numbers hold, ‘Midnights’ will become Taylor’s fifth studio album to launch with over 1 million units.

      You should be worrying about Mary old h** can’t pass 15K from her flopped album and Cardi’s long delayed album. Think twice before coming for Queen B💅🏾 Sucker!

      Beyonce lives in your head rent free, also if beyonce released 20 versions of renaissance including bundling albums with food and using paid ads views for streams, y’all would hate on her and call her desperate but because it is a white woman it is okay to be a desperate cheater, also Taylor swift isn’t even your fave meaning Taylor would also outsell your fave, the fact you have to even bring up Beyonce shows how much you are intimidated by her success lmao 🤣 👏 , stay pressed hunbun

    #OVERRATED

    Artist like T. Swift take the fun out of watching artist have ORGANIC success. Instead of the MUSIC selling the project, every album will be successful because of the NAME/Stans alone.

    T. Swift should have fallen off long time ago. The “i can do know wrong” should not apply to weak entertainers like Drake and T Swift, whom make basic boring music with 1 good song every 4 years.

    I get it, Taylor is Wholesome and White but this here is…

    🐷 Privilege

    #RETURN TO SENDER

    • Carlitos October 22, 2022

      Are you stupid or are you just STUPID? What in the actual F*CK does her skin color have to do with selling albums? If you want to support an artist, STREAM OR BUY THE FKNG ALBUM! If you don’t want to, or too damn broke to, JUST SAY IT AND MOVE TF ON!

      • Maya doesn’t reply back, stay pressed October 22, 2022

        Taylor swift is an average singer, can’t dance or perform and an average instrumentalist who makes bland pop songs that range from horrible to Catchy with either awful reptile lyrics or straight forward lyrics, your standards are too low. She is white and privileged hence you don’t care. If a black artist released 20 versions of the same album and used paid ads views to increase stream count for an inorganic first week sales you guys would dismiss them, I remember a few years ago how you guys BULLIED Justin Bieber and called him desperate but since 2017 especially that is all your fave has and will ever be. If this album actually sells over 1 million units I will forever hate her and hate her fans more for not calling out her manufactured pr success. It isnd fair on others at all

    • Zade October 22, 2022

      You’re so pressed.

    • Bee October 22, 2022

      Ladies & gentlemen this is what pressed look like 😩😂😂😂, you wish this was Beyoncé

      • Maya doesn’t reply back, stay pressed October 22, 2022

        I don’t wish this was beyonce at all, I would never want my fave bundling albums with food and releasing 20 versions to greatly increase streams plus paid ads views just to get fake sales she didn’t earn for a mediocre album with piaf critics ratings. Embarrassing for Taylor swift.

    • Candace Owens October 22, 2022

      Diabetes is a fat C*ON. She”ll die before Taylor’s next #1 album.

  4. marilyn monh-O-E ® 👠(#1 DIVA) October 22, 2022

    There are only two tracks I like: Anti- Hero and Lavender Haze and the rest are just meh….. 💅🏾 Diva is still jamming and twerking Carly Rae’s The loneliness time. No skipping coz all tracks are hitting me so hard like 10 men gang up on me all the same time 🍆

    • Red Sonja October 22, 2022

      White gay gut pretending to be a black woman. Hi Shayla and your multiple accounts…

  5. LOL October 22, 2022

    LMAOOOOOOOO RIP FLOPSAUCE IM CRYING LMAOOOOOO 😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😂

  6. RIP FLOPAISSANCE October 22, 2022

    LMAOOO SHE BODIED THE SO CALLED QUEEN OF MUSIC IN SEVEN DAYS LMAOOOO 😭😭😭😂😂😂😂

    • Maya doesn’t reply back, stay pressed October 22, 2022

      Lmao first all beyonce didn’t need to release 20 versions of renaissance and didn’t need paid ads views and to bundle her album with restaurant food. Taylor swift is irrelevant hence she needs to fake sales for validation like nicki minaj. It is embarrassing. Beyonce is still Queen of music though. Funny how beyonce was the first person that came to your mind. Obsessed much 🤭? Who wouldn’t be. Its QUEEN BEE we are talking about here

      • RIP FLOPAISSANCE October 27, 2022

        LOL BLAH BLAH BLAH, TAYLOR BODIED YOUR FLOP FAVE, THE END, STAY PRESSED LMAOOOO

  7. True Tea October 22, 2022

    Most of those sales come from her playing the victim.

    • Maya October 23, 2022

      She released LITERALLY more than 20 versions of the album, of course it would “sell” over 1 million units, she is a fraud and she disgusts me and I hate that you guys hype her mediocrity on this channel. Taylor swift is a cheating loser.

  8. Swifter2020 October 22, 2022

    The true Queen of Music!! Singer-songwriter who composed, produced and multi-instrumentalist that do not have to strip to sell records. Cheers to another successful era to come and another 1million plus selling debut.

    • Maya doesn’t reply back, stay pressed October 22, 2022

      She doesn’t compose or produce, the writing credits will tell you that, also writing lyrics such as “me hi hi oo oo” or “everyone is a s*** baby” isn’t something to be proud of, she also has co writers and has been accused multiple times of not writing her songs, she also uses a loop station, she isn’t a true instrumentalist, she also can’t dance or perform and is an average singer at best. Stop overrating her when you aren’t even a stan. You just want to be shady and excited lmao and for no reason. A real queen won’t need 20 versions of the same album to boost her streams by over 80% and won’t need paid ads views to get views on YouTube or radio deals cause her songs won’t be played otherwise. T swift is a flop but y’all aren’t ready for that convo yet so bye

      • Swifter2020 October 24, 2022

        Just like illiterate Bey who has a whole writing team while she took credit for their work? How many times she’s been accused of stealing other people’s work? So what she can dance ? Is not like she created herself! She’s no a pioneer like MJ or Prince…she’s just a pretty face who can sing and dance and there are many others like her. Taylor is a gifted singer songwriter who knows how to narrate her story in music and that’s why she has a bigger fan base and Bey and has a bigger sales than Bey. Facts and facts. Google is free, use it and while you’re at that stream your fav because she’ll need it. Bless your heart.

  9. Vo October 22, 2022

    Wow I’m suprised it’s selling so many. Amazing that this will have Her 5th album to sell over a million in its first week.

  10. Claude Remains October 22, 2022

    Poor Beyonce!!!!!!!!

    • Maya doesn’t reply back, stay pressed October 22, 2022

      Beyonce has sold 220 million records based on RIAA while swift has sold a manipulated sum of 200 million based on RIAA so don’t worry about beyonce, she is chilling in her mansion 😎 😉 😜. Pay your bills though

      • Swifter2020 October 24, 2022

        Check RIAA again dummy…talk is slick but the fact slaps. This will be Taylor’s fifth album to go over 1 million plus in sales…your fav will never.
