Taylor Swift's fifth studio album "1989," a musical departure from her country pop roots released Monday, Oct. 27, is slated to become the first album of 2014 to have gone platinum in its first week, according to Billboard.

This will be Swift's third consecutive record to go platinum in its first week, following 2010's "Speak Now" and 2012's "Red," Stereogum reports. Like her previous efforts, this album will sell a million copies by week's end. Swift doubted it could follow the trend, but it will also mark the best opening week sales since "Red" sold $1.21 million. 

Trailing only behind Disney's "Frozen: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack," which sold an impressive $3.2 million and has been certified triple-Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America, Swift's "1989" will become the second-best selling album of 2014. 

According to Forbes, last year 83 songs went platinum with digital sales dwindling and listeners purchasing the singles more than the entire album. As of Oct. 16, over 60 songs have sold 1 million.

Beyoncé's self-titled album sold 1.3 million copies in the final three weeks of 2013 when it had its surprise release in December. It is currently at No. 2., selling the 787,000 this year. Lorde's "Pure Heroine," also released in 2013, is inches behind with 750,000 albums sold.

By Fall 2013, Justin Timberlake's comeback album "The 20/20 Experience," is one of five records that have hit one million units sold or more. Timberlake's third studio album became the best-selling album of 2013 in the U.S. with 2,427,000 copies sold.

Rapper Eminem's eighth effort "Marshall Mathers LP 2" had had the second-highest album sales of 2013, selling over 2,203,601 copies in United States according to Nielsen Soundscan, as of Sept. 4. The album debuted at number one on the U.S. Billboard 200 and had the second-highest album sales of 2013. As of Sept. 9, the album has sold 2,203,601 copies in the U.S., according to Nielsen Soundscan.
