Doja Cat's fourth studio album, Scarlet, is now projected to move between 60,000-70,000 units in its first week, according to HitsDailyDouble. The bump is reportedly being bolstered by her “Agora Hills” track, which has climbed up to No. 6 on the Spotify U.S. chart and is following a similar trajectory on Apple Music. Even so, the new album likely won't reach the top of the Billboard 200.
The figure is also a far cry from her previous effort, Planet Her, which debuted with 109,000 units and a spot at No. 2 on the chart when it released in 2021. Prior to that, Doja's debut studio album, Amala, peaked at No. 138 in 2018 while her sophomore effort, Hot Pink, reached as high as No. 9.
