There was never any doubt that Justin Timberlake's first album since 2006 would sell well. But with record sales trending downward it was hard to predict first week numbers.
The final numbers are in and according to HDD, Timberlake's The 20/20 Experience has sold 980,622 copies in it's 1st week to easily claim the top spot on the Billboard 200 chart.
That number not only beats all previous projections, but the disc even surpassed his 2006 album FutureSex/LoveSounds'' opening week sales by nearly 300,000 copies. FutureSex/LoveSounds went on to sell over 10 million copies worldwide which bodes well for The 20/20 Experience.
The closest competitor to the monster sales from JT this week is Kacey Musgraves' Same Trailer, Different Park, which sold 42,125 copies
