Kendrick Lamar is slated to have a very strong first week on the charts.

According to HDD, K. Dot is projected to sell more than 200,000 copies of his major label debut good kid, m.A.A.d city. Pop-country singer Taylor Swift is expected to nab the top slot with her latest LP Red, which will likely crown the charts with over a million copies sold.

The Compton, California native’s latest release reached as high as No. 2 on the iTunes album chart yesterday. The LP features guest appearances from Mary J. Blige, Dr. Dre, Jay Rock, Drake and MC Eiht.
