Lady Gaga’s 'A Star Is Born’ Soundtrack Set for Chart-Topping First-Week Sales The album is expected to debut with more than 200,000 <br />copies sold. This would give the soundtrack <br />the biggest week in pure album <br />sales for a movie musical <br />soundtrack since Frozen in 2014. If the album does surpass 200,000, it would also have the best opening for any 2018 soundtrack. Black Panther: The Album <br />currently holds that title. Aside from the single “Shallow,” the ‘A Star is Born’ soundtrack was not released until the day of the movie’s release. The expected chart-topping sales should place the album in the No. 1 spot on the Billboard chart. The official sales count will not be announced until Sunday.
