RCA's Ke$ha should be able to stay stocked up on whiskey-flavored toothpaste with an 80-85k bow; Big Machine/Republic country beau hunks Florida Georgia Line chug into the holidays with a 50-55k debut.

ONE-DAYS: NOBODY BEATS THE WIZ

Wiz Khalifa Is the Big Debut and #1 Contender, With Ke$ha, Florida Georgia Line Also Bowing
Eggnog! Presents! Cookies! More Eggog!

That's what it sounds like in our heads these days, but we may as well go on pretending to work while the boss is around.

Hey, here's an idea: You ask us about next week's likely sales numbers, and we'll pretend to know something about that.

O.N.I.F.C., the very latest offering from Atlantic's Wiz Khalifa, is on course to sell somewhere in the 135-145k range, making it a contender for #1 next week against chart stalwarts Rod Stewart (Verve) and Taylor Swift (Big Machine).

How will the week's other new releases stack up? We're glad you asked. RCA's Ke$ha should be able to afford plenty of whiskey-flavored toothpaste with an 80-85k bow, while Big Machine/Republic country beau hunks Florida Georgia Line chug into the holidays with a 50-55k debut.

But what does O.N.I.F.C. stand for, you ask? Some say it's "Only N***** in First Class," but we like to think it's "Oh, Now I Feel Christmas-y."
