Janet Jackson :: Charts & Sales History

[Bojan]

It’s pretty simple, actually.

According to what it has been posted here today with Soundscan figures:

Unbreakable (album)

ALBUM SALES: 272,488
ALBUMS W/TEA 305,300

TEA= Track Equivalent Albums
305,300 - 272,488 = 32,812

Ratio for TEA is 1/10
328,212 tracks sold from Unbreakable.

So obviously “No Sleeep” sales cannot be 353k.

@Bojan, you (or the person who gave you the info), added the track total and the song total.
Digital Tracks and Digital Songs are different charts.

[spoiler:9p4nnvt7]The Hot Digital Tracks chart is a song popularity chart that ranks the best selling digital tracks in the United States according to Billboard magazine. It is not to be confused with the Hot Digital Songs chart, which combines different versions of songs for a summarized figure (for example remixes, "explicit" or "clean" versions, and/or any other alternate versions can chart separately here, whereas all versions of the same track occupy only one position on Hot Digital Songs[/spoiler:9p4nnvt7]

178,183 is the song total with all its versions.


(Which means 150k sold for the rest of the tracks on the album)

So that means that version with J. Cole + the remix sold 174,000 and the original, solo version only 4,000 copies?

Re: Janet Jackson :: Charts & Sales History

Solo went top 10. It can’t have only sold 4,000

For certifications, yes.

Number Ones should be Platinum
Discipline should be Gold
Icon could be Gold

Billboard:

The 2018 Billboard ICON Award honoree, Janet Jackson, collected a 939 percent sales gain for the three songs she performed: “Nasty,” “If” and “Throb.”

Streaming information about the tracks will likely be available in the coming days.

(Which means 150k sold for the rest of the tracks on the album)

So that means that version with J. Cole + the remix sold 174,000 and the original, solo version only 4,000 copies?

No.
Probably the remix sold 4k copies and the J.Cole and solo version combined 174k.
I don't know if the mistake comes from your source, who assumed each figure belonged to those versions, maybe you did, or maybe from the way they're named in Soundscan database.

But, as I posted before, the total TEA for the album is 328k, so the mistake of you counting twice the No Sleeep sales is clear.

I believe and I appreciate all the other figures you posted, though. Amazing to have updates sales!

Wow, updated sales!

Which figure should we be using? The one with TEA?

For certifications, yes.

Actually, for certifications, the figure that should be used is "ALBUMS W/TEA W/SEA ON-DEMAND", as RIAA covers TEA and audio and video SEA.

Thanks for that info.

"No Sleeep" is confusing, but you're probably right.

So, with what we have right now, if neither of her under-certified albums was over-shipped (or sold more than we think), she could have 36.5 or 37 million certified units by RIAA. But it will be interesting to see "ALBUMS W/TEA W/SEA ON-DEMAND" for her older albums. Could "The Velvet Rope" be 4x Platinum?

[red3269]

So 8M albums sold (w/ TEA and SEA on demand) in the US from AFY to Unbreakable. Not too shabby

[JeremySpears]

US pure album sales according to chart data on Twitter:

20 Y.O. 722,710
Discipline 457,416
Unbreakable 272,488

[stevyy]

Could "The Velvet Rope" be 4x Platinum?

It probably sold 4m in traditional sales (shipments)...

she is so undercertified, it's crazy. I hate the RIAA for not certifying out of merit, but want $$ for it.
