The buzz around Kanye West‘s ‘Donda’ album shows no signs of letting up. Quite the contrary. Because the sales forecast for the rapper’s 10th studio effort has been revised up.
Full story below…
As reported, the set was on track to launch with 300,000 in the US.
Now, Hits Daily Double reports that the LP is now eyeing a 350,000 opening.
Should ‘Donda’ deliver either number, it’ll become the biggest-selling album debut of the year so far – besting the 297k start of Olivia Rodgrigo’s ‘Sour.’
Its success is questionably fuelled by streaming. For, as West’s label Def Jam notes, the project drummed up over 180 million streams in 24 hours.

So why isn’t anyone streaming Camila’s “Don’t Go Yet”?? Poor baby is outside the top 60 on billboard and it hasn’t even been a full month since it was released.
The spirit of DONDA said, “My baby Kanye is going #1 on your Billboard chart with big, big sales. And Kanye ain’t scared.” 😂❤️
Big streaming numbers due to a bloated album with 3x as many tracks to stream than some other albums
The spirit of DONDA said, “Remind him that Drake had 25 songs on his last album.” 🤣❤️

Wow the clown is talking to its self 🤡🤡🤡🤡
Immaust say this: the ONLY REASON i listened to this was because i have a free trial of Spotify, and all this damn hoopla.
I was not impressed at all by the album….
It pretty much all sounded like one continuous track that would never really kick in….almost like a 27 track intro.
I really just wanna see what the numbers will be after…. But definitely not something i am gonna listen to again….same goes for that Olivia chick…..if it weren’t for free streaming i would have never checked for her…
Chile hang this album up like a throwback. True Tea isn’t checking for this fake wannabe false messiah or his clothes, politics, his love life, etc. Hell I forgot all about this MF until this week.
Wait. Olivia Rodrigo sold 297k first week???? The same girl who just did an interview and said she thought only white girls could be pop stars? Basically ignoring Beyonce, Rihanna, JHO/JLO, Selena Gomez, Aaliyah, etc. THAT GIRL SOLD 297k???
