NCT or Blackpink: who will chart higher on the BB200 albums chart?

Quote from How You Like That (460)

Just because stray kids shipped their us version albums to other countries once doesn't mean they will always get to do that again. They will get caught like superm was.

The way people really want to believe this when Stray Kids booked 12 dates in arenas on US lol

NCT’s highest charting position was #3 with 55k units

BLACKPINK’s highest was #2 with 120k units. It’s clear who will win

blackpink. Nct is not as popular as stray kids in the US. Straykids got a #1 with less album units sold than bp's The Album when it got #2 and it's safe to say bp's new album will do at least a bit better than that.

Quote from OP

vinyls and kits are both different forms of the same album, are they not?

just like digipacks, they are ways to boost sales & that's fine

almost every kpop group does that?

No it’s not. The album even has those but never have I seen akp say it has 6 versions. And I’ve only seen this sentiment here. It’s THREE versions.

If it was fine to you you wouldn’t be using it to shade bp

I think It was about the same first week (?) 110k for both or something. Unfortunately, BP was unlucky that time. Almost the whole year you can get #1 with that amount.

The one with the biggest streaming in demand, since that helps a lot. TA had 110k units, 80k pure sales and 30k in streaming
