BLONDE'S BOMBSHELL OF A DEBUT

First-week sales of Frank Ocean's Blonde will likely double those of prior Def Jam release Channel Orange, which opened with 131k in July 2012. Since the tracks are currently album-only at iTunes, presumably just for the first week, Blonde’s SPS additions will come solely from streams. In Blonde’s exclusive, abbreviated first week at Apple Music, streams from the album could exceed 50 million.

Frank Ocean (Boys Don't Cry) 265-290k SPS, 225-240k album
