Next Week's Top 15

NEXT WEEK'S TOP 15: Jason Aldean will give RED the top two albums of the week, the top two debuts of the year and fourth week at #1 behind three weeks for Mumford & Sons. A different Red will take over next week, however, as Taylor Swift's new album is expected to push 1m in first-week sales. Oh, and Sony could see as many as six titles in the Top 10. Here's how it looks headed into the weekend.

* Jason Aldean (Broken Bow) 400-420k
Mumford & Sons (Glassnote) 75-80k
* Brandy (RCA) 65-70k
* Scotty McCreery (19/Mercury Nashville/Interscope) 35-40k
P!nk (RCA) 30-35k
* Jamey Johnson (Mercury Nashville) 27-30k
Miguel (RCA) 21-24k
Little Big Town (Capitol Nashville) 21-24k
Adele (XL/Columbia) 19-22k
Kiss (UMe) 17-20k
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis (Macklemore) 17-20k
* Anberlin (Republic) 17-20k
Muse (Warner Bros.) 17-20k
MGK (Interscope) 17-20k
*Metalocalypse: Dethklok (Williams Street) 15-18k
