Bad Meets Evil; 2nd Week At the Top- Rap Albums on The Billboard Charts

Bad Meets Evil- Hell; The Sequel is at the top for a second week running. Royce Da 5'9 and Eminem's collabo EP sold 63,000 copies this week, and they are now at a total of 234,000 after 2 weeks on the chart. I suspect that the sales will spring up again once they shoot the video for Lighters with Bruno Mars. The track is already an official second single, and is already gaining air play on radio.

Pitbull's Planet Pit sold 55,000 copies after one week in stores. Now, this dude, i didn't like before, but i am really feeling his feel-good music concept. And he has some nice punchlines too. Pitbull might not be a conventional rapper with the three verse and hooks to separate them, but he seems to have his own lane right now. The man is everywhere, and you can trust that even if he wont go plat with the album, he would definitely go plat with one or two of his singles.

Nicki Minaj's Pink Friday is back on the charts, after she won award for the Best Female Hip Hop Artist category 2 nights ago- who else could have won it? Anyway, the album sold 14,000 copies this week, and is now at a total of 1,446,000 copies sold so far.

Tech N9ne's All 6's & 7's sold 12, 000 copies this week, and is now at a total of 86,000 copies. And Self-Made, Vol.1 from Maybach Music Group sold 8,000 this week, and is now at a 102,000 copies so far. Gorilla Zoe's KING KONG album sold 5,700 copies, with a total now at 16,000.

Self Made: Vol 1 First Week Sales Projection

Rick Ross and the gang just dropped the Maybach Music Group Presents: Self Made, Vol. 1 album, and it is predicted to sale....Read it below-

Universal Music now has the last four million selling debuts as Lady Gaga joins Taylor Swift, Lil Wayne and 50 Cent in a very rare category these days. Here's how it looks headed into the weekend: *Lady Gaga (Interscope) 1m+ *Brad Paisley (Arista Nashville) 145-155k Adele (XL/Columbia) 125-135k *Glee Cast Vol. 6 (Columbia) 75-80k Now 38 (Capitol/EMI) 45-50k *Maybach Music Group Presents: Self Made, Vol. 1 (Maybach/WB) 45-50k (HITS Rumor Mill


45k? Hmm! I am not surprised, that is exactly howmany copies i thought it would sell. You see, rap don't sell like it used too, and especially if you have 2, 3 or 4 rappers coming together as is the case with this album. But it is funny, you would think that each person should contribute to a cumulative fanbase, but i guess the fans are always skeptical. Nas last studio album, Untitled sold 189,000 copies in its first week in 2008, and when he dropped the distant relatives (2010) album with Damian Marley, the album sold just 57,000 copies.
