Meghan Trainor: Billboard Hot 100
Title is set to move 220,000 album-equivalent units in its first week, according to Billboard. Thanks to a new blend of sales and single steaming numbers, Trainor will easily grab the top spot in the United States with her first full-length album.
Trainor is actually expected to not just ride on the success of her singles "All About That Bass" and "Lips Are Movin'." Actual album sales are looking strong for her, too. Title is expected to sell about 180,000 copies in its first week.
The new album will displace Taylor Swift's 1989 from the top spot in the country - something that Trainor is very familiar with. In September, "All About That Bass" displaces Swift's "Shake It Off" from the No. 1 spot on the Hot 100, where the single stayed on top for eight weeks.
But Swift shouldn't be too bummed - 1989 was the top-selling album of 2014 and has been at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 for nine non-consecutive weeks.
Other new albums expected to debut in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 include Mark Ronson's Uptown Special, Jazmine Sullivan's Reality Show and Kidz Bop 27.
