HDD – Album Sales Prediction : Feb 27-Mar 4

With 40.05% of reports in, it’s déjà vu all over again. We have the same top 4 as last week. Adele, of course, leads the charge. This will be her 23rd week to top the chart, but it may be her last for a while. Springsteen is releasing an album this week. Adele also has the number 5 album with “19”.

Between Adele and Whitney, they’ve locked up 8 of the top 10 spots in the top 10 so far. “Whitney – The Greatest Hits” is a hit at number 2, “BodyGuard” is protecting number 4, “Triple Feature” gives you 3 albums for the price of 1 at 6th, “I Look To You” is looking good at 7th, “Whitney Houston” is 8th and “My Love is Your Love” is loving it at 10th. “I’m Your Baby Tonight” (12) and Just Whitney (13) give her 8 albums in the top 13.

So, who are the two non-Adele/Whitney’s in the top 10? Well, the NOW 41 compilation album is 3rd and Tyga (featuring a song with Season 6 Idol Chris Richardson) is 9th.

The top solo Idol is Kelly Clarkson with “Stronger” at 21. She also appears in a duet on Jason Aldean’s album (15) and the Grammy Nominees album (17). Scotty McCreery is at 28th.

Voice judges show up on the Grammy Nominees album (Adam, Christina and Blake) at 17 and Blake’s latest solo album at 35.
