Doja Cat‘s new album, ‘Scarlet,’ is already weaving quite the success narrative domestically and internationally.
Released Friday (September 22), the hitmaking rapper went to chart battle with the critically polarizing effort led by singles ‘Attention,’ ‘Demons,’ ‘Agora Hills,’ and the chart-topping ‘Paint the Town Red.’
Yet, despite not being greeted with the buzz of its history-making predecessor ‘Planet HER,’ ‘Scarlet’ is certainly being welcomed handsomely in some of the planet’s biggest sales markets.
Details inside.
Doja Cat’s ‘Scarlet’
Predicted First-Week Sales (SPS): 50,000-55,000 units
Predicted Billboard 200 Debut: #2-#8
Per HDD, ‘Scarlet’ – on pace to be the week’s top-selling new album – will likely tap out near the 55,000-sold mark by the end of its inaugural sales tracking week.
If the prediction holds true the sum won’t be enough to dethrone the projected chart champion, Olivia Rodrigo‘s sophomore studio effort ‘Guts,’ from the top spot. A historical repeat, longtime fans of both performers know this isn’t the first time Rodrigo has blocked Doja from topping the Billlboard 200.
And while the forecasted first-week sum of ‘Scarlet’ represents a nearly 51% drop from the 109,000 its predecessor (‘Planet HER’) moved out-of-the-box, the numbers should still be enough to land the rapstress her third consecutive top 10 opening on the hitlist.
Beyond pending U.S. music charts updates, the predictive news comes just as current Apple Music charts around the world report Doja is planted in the top 10 of over 100 countries including leading global markets like United States, United Kingdom, Spain, Peru, France, Canada, South Africa, Brazil, China, Jamaica, Germany, and more.

FLOP
Terrible sales. Couldn’t crack 100k even with a #1 single and several stunts. I guess her kittens really don’t f*** with her fr. Oh well that’s why Nicki will remain queen and these other b****** just court jesters and wannabe’s.
1. Cardi B 🔥
2. Megan thee 🐎
3. Doja Cat 🐈

DojaCat’s “Scarlet” debuts with 26 million streams on Spotify. It’s the second biggest debut of all time by a female rapper just behind “Planet Her”.
In streams not pure sale… any and everybody wanted to be noisy… they didn’t actually buy
flop
1. Wasn’t expecting her to drop so much from Planet Her so wow.
2. All it took was these reports for the Garbz to turn on Doja 😩 they’re so fickle. Let’s see what happens come November
What reports?
This album will continue to sale. She has hits on it. It’s one of the best albums out there. She is a great talent.
Issa flop sis. DOA
DAME. I was not expecting that. I personally have not listened to it cause nothing has caught my ear, and her personality has went down the toilet. The way they talk about it on tiktok i was sure this was gonna come in number 1 with 200k+. Ppl weren’t feelin her antics and she hyped herself up. Now look.

This s*** knock HARD though. Y’all missing OUT!
Same. I’m still streaming! can’t get enough. The album’s visual art is kinda meh though so I might pass on buying it physically..
I like the visual art. I will definitely be buying physical if it gets a vinyl release.
We love to see her F L O P 🥰
Damn she sold less than Meghan’s “Flopazine”
Yo momma sells less p**** in these streets than the local tricks.
People are still streaming and not buying that’s why. She will likely seek more via streaming. And since Doja is becoming established, her label is probably gonna spend less payola to boost her album sales compared to Olivia. PS: the album cover is kinda boring and doesn’t show her face unlike all her previous ones. That could be a factor also?
Excuses
Yet that flop song hit #1. That suspicious. Wonder how her tour is selling. 🙄🙄🙄
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas flop satanic white supremacist trash w**** 🤠👏
We love to see it!
Ikr she really lost all her BLACK fans… Half her audience. Dumbass b****

Go back to pop Doja cause the album is not it
Better than Normani. Lol
This site is getting boring they just report what they see and hear. What happened to Tgj favourite top 5 track list from albums.
Good for Doja, I hope the record labels aren’t paying attention to the stans obsession with charts. It’s just part of their parasocial relationship and the focus is a symptom of needing to live vicariously through these artists
