According to reports from  Hits Daily Double , the songs on the Houston rapper’s third studio album have been streamed over 100 million times. In terms of actual sales, the album is expected to move somewhere between 450-500,000 equivalent album units in its first week. That is an undeniably massive opening, especially when compared to the numbers Travis has pulled in the past. If these sales projections come to fruition, Scott will have more than quadrupled the first-week sales total of his last project,  Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight– which moved 89,000 units in its opening week. The album is loaded with features from big stars including Drake , Frank Ocean , and  Stevie Wonder. This album and it’s release has been teased for more than 2 years at this point, which could be why it’s doing such huge numbers. In any case, it seems like Astroworld ‘s long-awaited release has not disappointed, at least as far as number go. We’ll find out for sure once the final numbers come in. Congrats to La Flame on the huge release.

Well, according to a press release from her label, Jive Records, the song will hit radio and iTunes at midnight ET on Tuesday, days after a demo version of the club tune leaked online. The song will remain an iTunes exclusive purchase for a week, until January 18. “Hold It Against Me,” produced by Dr. Luke and Max Martin, is the lead single from Brit’s highly anticipated, yet-untitled March release . “Heard an early demo of my new single leaked. If u think that’s good, wait til you hear the real one Tuesday,” the pop star tweeted . “With her vocals on that, it’s going to be an undeniable, surefire hit,” Perez Hilton told MTV News about the demo, which features vocals from songwriter Bonnie McKee. “I loved it. My own critique is that the demo sounds a little too much like Ke$ha. I hope that the finished song feels like a Britney song. Besides that, it’s still to me a hit song.” Luke admitted that the track that has everyone talking already will really have fans hyped once the final version drops. “That version of hold it against me is really really old,” he shared. “It don’t sound like that anymore… it’s WAY better.” The “Hold It Against Me” leak is the latest in a long history of leaked Britney songs . In the past, other Spears lead singles like “Womanizer” (off 2008’s Circus ) and “Gimme More” (off 2007’s Blackout ) also hit the Net early, only gaining the singer more buzz for those releases. What are you expecting from Brit’s new single? Let us know in the comments!
