Kacey Musgraves’ Golden Hour album — basking in the glow of its four Grammy Award wins on Feb. 10, including album of the year — is set to re-enter the Billboard 200 chart next week with a massive gain in units earned.
According to industry forecasters, the album, which debuted and peaked at No. 4 last April, is poised to re-enter the chart dated Feb. 23, straight into the top 15, with perhaps 25,000 to 28,000 equivalent album units earned in the week ending Feb. 14. That would represent a gain of around 340 to 400 percent, as compared to what the album tallied in the week ending Feb. 7: 6,000 units, according to Nielsen Music.
