One-days

ONE-DAY SALES FORECAST: The Now franchise just keeps tickin’, despite—or perhaps because of—consumers’ primary focus on singles. Now 43 (Capitol/EMI) will be next Tuesday’s biggest debut by a mile, just as Rick Ross’ album was this week), with early sales projecting a tally of 110-120k. That appears to be enough to knock Ross out of the top perch, given the typical second-week drop-off. R&B artist Elle Varner (RCA) should have the next biggest bow with 25-30k, followed by country rapper Colt Ford (Average Joe's) with 15-20k and John Mayer’s iTunes exclusive EP (Columbia), with 14-17k.
