King of Stage

Chapter 842: Shoulder-to-shoulder superstar

, The fastest update to the latest chapter of the king of stage!

In the second week of March, "Nine" reached the top of the Billboard Albums chart without any suspense with a sales data of 1.17 million, becoming the second champion album of King One Day.

Moreover, this time is the throne of airborne champion! The strong performance of the devastation ushered in exclamation and cheers!

However, King One Day is not the only singer to release a new album this week. In addition to them, there are a series of strong competitors:

Rapper school boy Q (ScHoolboy-Q), indie rock singer Beck, rapper Kid-Cudi, country singer Dierks-Bentley, Latin singer Romeo Santos (Romeo-Santos), alternative rock clash bands (The-Fray) and so on.

All of the above-mentioned singers released albums in the same week as King One Day; and their sales performances were all good. Among them, the sales of school boy Q and Baker exceeded 100,000, and the sales of other singers were all 50,000. Above, finally join hands with the king to wash the list together.

On the billboard album chart, except for "Frozen" OST, which was pulled down by King One Day and slipped to the runner-up position, the top eight spots were all occupied by newly released albums, showing a hundred flowers blooming and a hundred schools of thought contending. The gorgeous posture is really dazzling.

But it is precisely because of such a fierce and anxious market competition that "Nine" still bursts out with such amazing energy, it makes people more and more feel the appeal of the king for a day, it seems... far more than imagined. The grandeur is more grand, and maybe it should be re-adjusted.

In the third week of March, the anticipated "One Day King VS Pharrell Williams" failed to explode with enough energy, I have to say that I was disappointed.

but!

Amidst the disappointment, we can still see the surprise, "Nine", the sales level of 500,000 broke out again the following week after the issuance, revitalizing the market with one's own efforts.

Five hundred thousand!

That's half a million!

Compared with the first week, sales fell by more than 60%, but this result is definitely not a failure, but a superstar level, which can be compared to Justin Timberlake.

Last year, the next week of "Perfect Vision" delivered 330,000 sales, which was more than two-thirds of the decline in the first week. In comparison, the performance of "Nine" was slightly better, which also means So, not only fanatical fans are contributing to sales, but passersby should also buy a lot of albums.

Suppose, Farrell’s "Girl" broke out with a sales volume of 300,000 according to the forecast, but the performance of "Nine" in the next week can still easily overwhelm the opponent; not to mention that now, "Nine" is absolutely amazing and absolutely amazing. The performance has crushed the "girl", even "the next week VS the first week" still has an obvious advantage.

This is a complete victory!

Undisputedly, the victory!

Although no one is discussing it anymore, because the result is obvious, but... "One Day King VS Pharrell Williams 3.0" ended with a one day King's victory.

From last year to this year, Ronan and Farrell competed on the billboard singles chart twice, and all of them were Farrell's last laugh; but when it was on the billboard albums chart, Ronan got back.

Such a result is not unexpected; what is really unexpected is that no one thought that one day the king would win so easily, Farrell had no chance at all, or even not on the same level at all.

Such a situation makes people a little bit dumbfounded. The upsets are one after another, and people have to sigh the changing situation. The wind direction of the market is like a child's mood. One second is still laughing, and the next is already crying.

The reporters will naturally not let the two parties go, but it will be even more difficult for them to make trouble this time.

During the interview, Ronan bluntly stated that he did not pay attention to these news. What he really paid attention to was Farrell's album. "I like this album. Of course, I won't say that I love it fanatically. , But undoubtedly, I like Farrell’s exploration of retro style."

"So, do you still have reservations about this album?" The reporter immediately caught Ronan's speech ill and went inside.

Ronan laughed happily, "Yes, I have reservations about the album." He still refused to express perfunctory friendliness with public relations and social rhetoric.

The reporters were all excited, as if they were beaten up with blood, but Ronan no longer responded.

Afterwards, the reporters passed Ronan's words to Farrell intact-this time he didn't interpret the distortion by himself, and then he could see Farrell laughing.

"Haha, I know, I am also going to sit down with Ronan and discuss it. He actually has reservations about my work? We need to talk about it." Although the content of the words seemed to be "threatening", Farrell But very happy.

The reporters also noticed that there was something in Farrell's words, so they tentatively asked, "Did you and Ronan pass?"

"Of course. On a professional level, I tried to listen to his opinions. Similarly, I also gave him some opinions. We all found this very interesting. Unfortunately, because of the busy schedule, our conversation could not be deepened. I have always I look forward to sitting down with him and discussing it in depth."

Farrell said frankly.

As a producer, Farrell does have his pride, but at the same time, he is also a producer who frequently cooperates with all kinds of objects. He knows how to communicate, when to insist on when he should listen to opinions, and most importantly, He likes brainstorming discussions.

So Farrell likes talking to Ronan, which is very interesting and can also trigger inspiration-he now understands why Justin Timberlake and Ronan became friends.

"Personally, I like the album'Nine' very, very much, but I also have some opinions, and I told Ronan without reservation." Farrell also added politely.

The reporters who sharpened their knives and prepared to do a big job once again came back down, but after all they were not able to pick things successfully.

Of course, there are still a small number of media and fans who insist:

The duel is still not over~www.readwn.com~ The North American music market depends on explosive power and endurance. It is a stupid behavior to determine the victory or defeat in just a week or two. Next, we have to look at the stamina of the "girl". .

But these opinions are only a few after all. From the reputation and popularity of the "girls", it can be seen that the stamina of this album may be difficult to counterattack, that is to say, the victory or defeat is divided.

In fact, it is true.

In the fourth week of March, the sales of "Girls" unexpectedly ushered in a decline, falling straight below the 70,000 threshold. Only 68,000 copies were sold the following week, and the sales volume in the first week was unsatisfactory. , The next week's decline is not optimistic, and the ranking of the Billboard Albums chart also slipped to sixth.

Of course, the sign of "Pharrell Williams" still has a certain appeal, and the endurance of the North American music market is indeed long and strong.

Although "girls" have long lost their competitiveness, the year-end global sales have reached 1.8 million copies, of which North American sales will cross the one million threshold.

Such a result is not considered excellent, it can only be said to be barely passing.
