NEW YORK \u2014 Taylor Swift’s \u201creputation\u201d is in good standing: the album has sold more than 1.22 million units in its first week.<\/p>\n

Nielsen Music and Billboard report Monday that the album is Swift’s fourth project to sell more than a million copies in a week. Swift became the first artist in history to have three albums sell more than a million units in their debut week when \u201c1989\u201d sold 1.29 million copies in 2014. Her albums \u201cRed\u201d and \u201cSpeak Now\u201d each sold 1.21 and 1.05 million copies when they released in 2012 and 2010, respectively.<\/p>\n

\u201cReputation,\u201d released on Nov. 10, has sold more traditional albums than any other release this year. Ed Sheeran and Kendrick Lamar’s recent albums are behind Swift, but have not sold a million units traditionally.<\/p>\n

Since Billboard changed how it views album sales \u2014 incorporating single track sales (10 song sales<\/p>\n

(1,500 streams<\/p>\n

have each sold more than 2 million units.<\/p>\n

Swift’s \u201creputation\u201d is not available on streaming services, pushing fans to buy it or wait until it appears on Spotify or Apple Music. The album includes the hit singles \u201cReady for It?\u201d and \u201cLook What You Made Me Do.\u201d<\/p>\n
