Here Are the First Week Projections for Kanye West’s New Album ‘Donda’
Written by SOURCE on August 30, 2021
It isn’t Yeezy season without some impressive numbers, and it seems Kanye West’s latest album Donda has a similar destiny.
The project, which was released on Sunday following Ye’s Thursday night listening event in Chicago, finally arrived in a 27-track package around 8 a.m. after three listening events, a public feud with Drake, and confusion over if the album was supposed to drop in the first place. Either way, all of the conversation around Donda has given Yeezy a pretty remarkable edge over Halsey’s latest release If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power, with Donda projected to gross at or above 300k in its first week, according to HITS Daily Double.
Donda currently has a hold on the entire top 10 on Spotify and top 20 on Apple Music, as of Monday morning, and has also landed at No. 1 in 130 countries on Apple Music, which TMZ reports is the most No. 1 entries in history.
