The Predictions Are In! Taylor Swift’s ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ Set to Sell Over 2 MILLION First Week

Published: Saturday 20th Apr 2024 by Sam

Taylor Swift is set to tower taller than tall with her latest studio album, ‘The Tortured Poets Department.’

The LP was already one of the year’s most eagerly anticipated, only for the Pop force to pull quite the wildcard of dropping an additional 15 tracks to the already stacked LP in the form of ‘The Anthology.’ An unprecedented move that effectively rendered the project a double album, it saw the set’s overall tracklist swell to 31 songs.

Between the buzz, record-breaking streams, bountiful physical editions, and the freshly added tracks to consume, Swift was always looking at a gargantuan launch.

Find out how high the numbers are looking below…

According to Hits Daily Double, the album is officially on course to premiere atop of the Billboard 200 with over 2 million units – first week. Yes, 2 million.

In doing so, it’s on track to surpass the huge opening week sales delivered by ‘1989 (Taylor’s Version)’ and ‘Midnights’ to become the biggest debut of Swift’s career.

What’s more,‘The Tortured Poets Department’ will register as Swift’s seventh album to open north of 1 million units and the third to launch with over 1.5 million. Uniquely (and in a rather epic feat), latter sums were all accrued within the last two years.

Keep it locked for more on Ms. Swift’s epic opening and be sure to let us know…

  6. AJ April 20, 2024

    how and why?
    Are gay men that devoid of personality that they have to call themselves tortured Poets?

    And the rest of America? Bought into the doe-eyed soul of the “all American stereotype” of blonde hair and blue eyes.

    The music is bland, the personality is lackluster and it’s all gimmicks and tricks. Y’all been played by “masters-gate”.

      • PUERTO RICKUN April 20, 2024

        Beyonce is a fair skinned woman who rocks a blonde wig. An unambiguous black woman such as SZA would make a better argument. 😉

      • Diabetes Amputated April 21, 2024

        The Diabetes bacteria has now reached your brain haha. You miseable fatso. Just sad. You are doing more harm to Beyonce than helping her. The exact reason why Beyonce is trying to be white because of blacks like you.

  19. UHoesFunny April 20, 2024

    All 31 tracks on this album are so boring and pointless and meaningless. She’s getting horrible reviews. The only people who listen to this music are white fat teenage girls and gays who were bullied in school. Name one track that’s a bop 😂

    • Karen April 20, 2024

      Beyonce no panties on jumping like a kangaroo on stage and can’t do Adele or Swift numbers. 190,000 flop

      • Diabetes Amputated April 21, 2024

        Hahaha miserable Beyonce fans who thinks the world revolves around them. Beyonce is like a country artist who just sells a bit more. Fact. Dont put her in the same level as Taylor as she will always be below her.

      • UHoesFunny April 21, 2024

        Mayo Swift album is boring 🥱

      • ADELE April 21, 2024

        MAYO SWIFT ALBUM IS SELLING 🤣

  20. Dua Lipa April 21, 2024

    Cowboy Carter landed Beyoncé her biggest streaming week ever and broke streaming records on several platforms. It became the most-streamed album in a single day in 2024 on Spotify, with over 76 million streams globally in its first day which was later surpassed by Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department. 🥰😂

    • FLOPBOY PAYOLA April 21, 2024

      ….WHICH SHATTERED FLOPBOYS NUMBERS WITHIN THE FIRST 15 MINUTES OF RELEASE LMAO 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  21. TAYLOR WINS AGAIN!!!! April 21, 2024

    Beyonce is BORING, UNRELATABLE AND PRETENTIOUS. That’s why she’ll never do these numbers.

  22. Bey-A-Culpa April 21, 2024

    Checkmate.

  23. UHoesFunny April 21, 2024

      • UHoesFunny April 21, 2024

        You call “Fortnite” a bop???

        I have to laugh

        🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  24. Yo April 21, 2024

    Taylor swift is an icon! There is no one in her league.
    No one can say there’s anyone bigger. She’s sooo consistent. Tell me an artist who’s had 11 massive albums in a row. Tell me an artists who’s 11th album is selling 2 million in a week? No on in history!
    That’s why she’s the music industry.

  25. Riley April 21, 2024

    No album of the year for Mrs Joe Camel. Bhawaaaa lmao.

  26. THIS USHER BABY April 21, 2024

    Beyonce trying steal my moment from SUPER BOWL and got stole by Tay Tay swift baby.

  27. Ummm April 21, 2024

    White people, who generally have more money and access to more resources, are more likely to financially support their favorite artists and more likely to buy physical records.

    Black people, who are generally poorer and have less access to resources, are less likely to financially support their favorite artists and are more likely to stream.

    This is why Black artists pray for crossover success and often make artistic decisions that will attract white consumers. They can’t live off of the little bit of financial support that Black audiences provide.

    This is a white world.

    Sad, but true.

    • Gworl Bye April 21, 2024

      Beyonce fans always pull that race card whenever someone does better than her. Pretty played out at this point.🙄

    • Gworl Bye April 21, 2024

      P.S., your argument is stupid because the majority of Taylor’s numbers are coming from streams, and it’s not black people that are streaming her music. LOL 🤡

    • MecostaDenada April 21, 2024

      The Lord said the earth is given into the hands of the wicked, Chile. Who might that be? 💅🏾

    • Diabetes Amputated April 22, 2024

      But even the asians are for Taylor. The problem with black music is that its too local just like country music. Pop is the lane that would most likely have the biggest audience, especially for asians. You all talking about yhe anglosphere consumers but are overlooking the massive asian market(including china).

  28. LizzosArmpit April 21, 2024

    Beyonce needs hand-outs and welfare for success. She’s all payola and demon-worshipping. No one is listening to the that Cowboy Cuntress album. NO ONE. It’s a tik tok moment and nothing more for black people to say “Weez Cuntry TOO!”, stealing space from white people that actually like the genre. NO ONE will be listening to those overproduced, made by committee “content” (not songs) with 85,000 writers and producers.

  29. ADELE April 21, 2024

    LMAO BYTCH MORPHED INTO A WHOLE WHITE WOMAN, HER PET CAMEL SPENT $20 MILLION IN PAYOLA FOR HER FAKE COUNTRY MUSIC, AND SHE STILL GOT FLUSHED LMAOOOO 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
