Industry prognosticators are now fearlessly predicting that Taylor Swift's latest Republic rocket, THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT, will soar into the rarefied air of 2 million+ in first-week activity.

As you probably know, the new set was expanded to 31 tracks mere hours after its arrival in an "ANTHOLOGY" edition that will inevitably supercharge the already-frenzied consumption underway by Swifties. POETS quickly blew past Spotify and Amazon Music records for single-day album streams; expect more records to be set very soon.

So if 2m is now considered a floor, what's the ceiling? For the time being, we'll content ourselves with reiterating that this thing is big. Very, very big.

Data nerds are now saying 2.3m+ is the new benchmark for THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT (Republic), which means Swift cleared that bar with ease. Is 2.4m+ in play? Could it go higher? Anything is possible when it comes to Taylor Swift.

Did we mention it’s Taylor Swift week? Our prognosticators have another update on THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT’s first week total. Analysts are now certain that TTPD will clear 2.5m units in its first week, as the 31-track blockbuster continues to raise the bar. For those keeping score at home, that puts TTPD behind only Adele’s 25 for the largest all-time debut. How much bigger than huge can it get? Stay tuned.
