Rap Albums on Billboard Chart

Although the album debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart, G.O.O.D Music's Cruel Summer album is the highest selling rap album for this week. It sold 205,000 copies after a full week in stores. And, ironically, another G.O.O.D Music artist, 2 Chainz is up next...his Based on A T.R.U Story album sold 17,000 copies this week, and now stands at a 288,000 total.








Tech N9ne makes it on the chart this week with his new album, E.BA.H, which sold 14,000 copies after 7 days in stores. Tech is fully idependent, so he probably made about $70k this week alone from album sales...that ain't bad.
