YG is expecting BP to sell over 2.5M albums in 2021

YG financial report has them expecting 3.5M+ total album sales in 2021 due to BP & treasure album sales growth.

Meaning YG is banking on BP to sell like 2.5M albums.

That's achievable if BP release another Pre-release single album & then a 2nd full album later on.

Imo:

Pre-release = 500K

2nd Album = 1.75M

Back catalog = 250K

What do u guys think?

Are we getting the same roll-out as 2020?

It's unlike YG to follow the same strategy 1 year after release but it's a new management & Touring is still not feasible for 2021 so I think it's entirely possible we get the same roll out from 2020.

Quote from Versatile

Since the title seems to be an assumption, Imma put this in gossip, and anyway I think that BP can sell 3 million albums eventually maybe not next year but the following

That's true probably in 2023

Quote from sachsach

that means 1M total album sales from Treasure? i can't

i'm broke

Pretty sure 750K & 300K from other artists lol

But 1M is achievable if they release 4 albums I guess

Quote from drakan

that or YG is planning on giving treasure 9 comebacks this year

Lol probably 3 aka 750K

Their first already sold 250K

Quote from Mia92

Well when you only include 8 songs into an album, why not? Another album with 8 new songs is feasible especially since the total of two BP albums is what most artists include in one album.

Yeah I don't mind

I always dread listening to more than 11 tracks album anyways

Quote from sachsach

they will be making their japan debut this year, i guess only 2 for this year

Likely 3

January

Summer

Winter

Quote from azhra-0110

They will probably sell way more than that (YG as a whole). I bet the solos will sell a decent chunk as well, especially lisa's

That's true

Rosie/lisa & potentially jisoo solos can do 550K-750K alone

YG will probably sell 4M total

Quote from amalyas

Would the solo EP be included in these sales ?

No only BP sales cause they have data to base it upon (2020 performance)

The solos are hard to predict tbh

Quote from arin

Multiple albums this year can achieve that.

Just 1 single & 1 full album will do the trick

Quote from sachsach

bigbang is coming back or nah?

TBD

Only GD is confirmed & his last album didn't even come in traditional CD packaging

So his potential sales are hard to predict

Quote from kittykitka

if yg keeps promoting them like they did in 2020

I don't see why not

Yeah I hope we get that 2nd full album with 2 pre release before hand

Quote from amalyas

I see !

Well then it's still possible, but I think we would need two albums to do so Which I'm 100% here for, YG needs to stop sleeping on the Pinks. We'll see...

1 single & 1 full album will do the needful actually

Quote from glitglpwm

Does that include Lisa and Rose solo? Because if yes it is very possible.

Nah only BP releases

Quote from hueningkaiskai

they need to release albums for that

That's... The point

Also 1 album will suffice

Quote from ForgottenSoul

I think its very much possible another full album + solos is probs 2.5m.

No

Full album + pre release + back catalog

Quote from hueningkaiskai

unless they release another full album no

Again that's... The point

Same rollout as 2020 will guarantee 2.5M sales

Quote from gerrard174

thats an assumption

Treasure sold 750k in their debut year

YG is definitely banking on both BP (1.5m at least depending on releases), Treasure (1.5m given they are junior and are highly promoted, likely debut in Japan too). Not to mention other artists (ikon, gd) whcih could make up another 500k or more

Treasure sold 700K actually

There's no way treasure will sell 1.5M in 2021..

Assuming they release 3 albums.. That's maximum 800K

Bp sold 1.7M in 2020 so 2.5M with same rollout as 2020 is more than possible

Quote from ForgottenSoul

Treasure will sell 1.5m in 2021.. on Gaon at least and JP..

Treasure recent album could do like 400k+ including JP..

.......

Their new album is like 270K

Assuming they release 2 more albums it'll be maximum 900K in 2021

Where will the 600K come from?

Quote from ForgottenSoul

They already sold 1m albums in 4 months yet you think they cant sell 1.5m in a full year?

O_o

Yeah with 4 albums...

Now unless u think YG is going to give them 4 CBS this year... Tbh that's possible lol

My point is the growth won't be that massive to reach 1.5M with 3 albums... More like 800K-900K lol

Quote from QueenMaknae27

This estimation seems realistic
- BP mini album
- Rose Mini Album and if they Lisa released it as a single album
- Big Bang can contribute to 100-200k albums
- Treasure album

That's only BP lol

Also no to mini album...
