City Girls, the dynamic hip-hop duo, is set to release their highly anticipated album “RAW” (short for “Real Ass Whores”) this week, with industry insiders projecting sales between 6,000 and 8,000 album-equivalent units during its debut week. While the album’s release is eagerly anticipated by fans, the numbers forecast a decline from the duo’s previous record, “City on Lock,” which sold approximately 19,000 units during its initial week in 2020.
City Girls, comprising members Yung Miami and JT, have gained a devoted following for their bold lyrics and infectious beats. The duo’s previous album, “City on Lock,” released during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, enjoyed robust sales, likely driven by fans seeking entertainment during lockdowns.
The expected sales figures for “RAW” reflect the evolving landscape of the music industry, where streaming services and digital downloads play a significant role. Many believe the low sale numbers are a by product of the oversaturation of sexually charged music with lyrics that lack artistic merit.
However, industry experts note that the true measure of an album’s success extends beyond its initial week, as streaming platforms allow music to reach audiences continuously over an extended period. City Girls’ dedicated fan base and their ability to connect with listeners on a personal level through their music are expected to contribute significantly to the album’s overall success in the long run.
“RAW” is already generating buzz online, with fans expressing excitement over the duo’s latest creative endeavor. The album promises to deliver the signature City Girls sound while addressing themes of empowerment, self-expression, and resilience.
