Early Reads

YOUR VERY EARLY NUMBERS: Lots of caveats go with these early numbers on some key releases streeting this week. Could the hit-stuffed Now 50 pose a threat to Frozen's #1 status? We're not ruling it out. How will Mother's Day factor in? Did we mention that these are really early numbers?

Now 50 (NOW) 90-110k
Hunter Hayes (Atlantic) 70-80k
Sarah McLachlan (Verve) 35-45k
Lily Allen (Parlophone/Warner Bros.) 20-25k
Tech N9ne Collabos (Strange Music) 20-25k

Speaking of Mother's Day, anything dubstep is always in good taste. (5/6p)
