Here are the first-week sales projections for Tory Lanez' debut album, I Told You, which was officially released yesterday (Aug. 19). The projected sales figures arrive soon after the unveiling of the first-week numbers for PartyNextDoor's P3 and Rae Sremmurd's SremmLife 2, which both dropped on Aug. 12. According to HDD, it is estimated that Lanez will sell 35-40k album units (including streaming) in its first week. In terms of pure album sales, the projections are 25-30k.
If the I Told You predictions turn out to be correct, Lanez will undersell PND (50k) by at least 10k units and will outsell Rae Sremmurd (30k) by at least 5k. PND exceeded his first-week projections by 6k units and Rae Sremm beat out their initial forecast by 2k. P3 is set to make its debut at No. 3 on next week's album chart, while SremmLife 2 will debut at No. 7.
