Carter 4 Retains Number 1 Spot: Rap Albums on Billboard Charts

Carter 4 is still sitting at the top of the charts, although it dropped 77% in sales from last weeks 964,000 copies. Lil Wayne's Carter 4 sold 219, 000 copies in its second week to now total at 1,184,000. With the way it is going, it might not make it to 3,000,000. It might make it to 2 million, but i don't know about making it to 3 mill.





Kanye West and Jay-Z are holding it down strong with their Watch the Throne Album, which sold 49,000 copies this week. It is now at a total of 836,000 copies; and that is just 160k short of a platinum plaque. I am going to make a bold prediction right here that this album is going to tie with Carter 4 very soon.

And next up is the greatest disappointment on the charts; The R.E.D Album, which sold 19,000 copies this week. Game's 4th album is now at a total of 156,000 copies sold in 3 weeks. I think that is very disappointing for someone who was making fun of 50 cent for selling 160k first week of his last album- Before I Self Destruct. I am a Game fan, and i think The R.E.D Album is in the top 3 best rap albums that have dropped this year, but i think Game destroyed his own career with his shady moves. He lost many fans going at Jay-Z. If he had gone at jay and stuck to it, then maybe it would be cool. But, you go at someone today, and apologize tomorrow, and then go at him again...when you do something like that, people would stop taking you seriously. My advise for game is for him to put in more energy into his career than he puts into minding other people's business.

Bad Meets Evil (Eminem & Royce Da 5'9) sold 17,000 copies of their Hell: The Sequel album this week, and they are now at a total of 516,000. Pitbull's Planet Pit Album sold 14,000 copies this week to now total at 206,000. Eminem appears a second time on the charts with his Recovery album which sold 7,600 copies this week, to total at 4,024,000.

Whiz Khalifa is back on the charts this week with his Rolling Papers album which sold 6,300 copies, and now totals at 570,000. And Ace Hood's Blood, Sweat & Tears album sold 3,700 copies to now total at 52,000.

Tha Carter 4 At Number 1: Rap Albums on The Billboard Charts

Yeah, it is finally here...the moment you have all been waiting for...to know howmany copies Carter 4 sold in its first week out. The figures i put up yesterday were a couple of tens of thousands of copies more, so i present my apologies to that effect. Carter 4 is the number one album in America this week...Carter 4 is number 1 on Billboard top 200 album charts and it sold 964,000 copies after one week in stores. Just 36,000 copies more and it would have done a million. But, i think we can still say it did a million.

Jay-Z and Kanye West are up next with their duo album, Watch The Throne, which sold 80,000 copies this week. Although there is a far margin between it and Lil Wayne's Carter 4, it should be considered that it has been on the charts for 4 weeks, and it dropped less than 20% in sales from last week. But, this would give Lil Wayne some bragging rights...because Jay-Z has always been known to pull that "numbers don't lie stunt" on rappers that test him on the mic. He can't say anything about that right now...what goes around comes around.

Game is up next, with more than 50% drop in his sales from last week's 98,000 debut. He sold 39, 000 copies this week...to now total at 137,000 copies in 2 weeks. Hmm! Can Game crack 500k with this type of sales? I am a big fan, and i love the R.E.D album, but i think he needs to do something about marketing fast. And one more thing, i think Game is Psychic. Read these lines from his Good Girls Go Bad track on R.E.D album- He on the top of the charts next to Beyoncé Right under Kanye. It is funny that he is really under Kanye (kanye and jay), and next to beyonce (beyonce also sold exactly 39,000 copies this week...the same thing game sold.)

18,000 copies of Bad Meets Evil Ep, Hell: The Sequel sold through the week, and eminem and royce da 5'9 are now at a total of 499,000 copies sold. Let us just say 500k. I still see this album going Plat...just wait and see. By next week, i see the sales of the album rising to like 25- 30k, when people get into that Lighters video.

Tyler, The Creator's Goblin album sold 9,700 copies this week, and now totals at 118,000 copies. Cash Money artist, Glasses Malone's Beach Cruiser album débuts on the chart this week, with 2,700 copies sold after one week out. I guess this is evidence that gangsta rap nolonger sells...and the funny thing is that this album is pretty decent.





Slim Thug Presents Boss Hogg Outlawz- Serve and Collect Part 3 (Immahogg) sold 2,400 after one week out. People wont learn the basics. Why would you have a long unfriendly name for your album title...i guess that is why it sold so low. Make it simple for people to know what you are saying. I am sure some Slim Thug fans didn't get the album. I am a fan by the way...but i haven't seen a copy of the album in stores over here.

Rap Albums on The Billboard Chart

The beastie boys are back on the charts, and their new album, Hot Sauce Committee Part 2 sold 127, 833 copies in its first week in stores. That makes the rap trio's new album stand as the number one selling rap album on the billboard charts this week.

Rolling Papers from Whiz Khalifa sold 19, 357 copies this week, and this brings his total so far for this album to 371,111. I wish him all the best on his journey to GOLD status, but i think he would have to drop another hot single from the album before he can do that.

Pink Friday sold 14,165 copies this week, and Nicki Minaj's debut album is now at a total of 1,356, 366. She is hanging in there, but i doubt she can't make it to double platinum. I think she has done good for herself already...i think maybe her sales would stall at around 1.6 million or there about.

I Am Not A Human Being by Lil Wayne sold 6,165 copies this week, bringing the total of the EP to 871,2888. This guy...i can't believe this album is still on the chart. First of all, it was not meant to be an album, and it is not a full length album...it was released first as a digital cd, and later released as EP. I think, from how long this album has been on the charts, that people are really waiting on his Carter 4 album. I wish him all the best. More money for Baby whichever way.

Snoop Dogg's Doggumentary sold 4,092 copies this week, bringing the total to 87,509 copies so far. And Wacka Flocka Flames'Flokaveli sold 3,471 copies, and the total now stands at 258,310. Diddy's Dirty Money album, Last Train to Paris sold 3,251 copies this week, and the total is now at 267,292.
