Latest Weekly Album Sales


Here are the top selling hip hop albums of the past week.

1) Lil Wayne Tha Carter3 1,005,545
2) Plies Definition of Real 214,532
3) Usher Here I Stand 100,807 (689,332 Total)
4) N.E.R.D. Seeing Sounds 79,968
5) Ashanti Declaration 33,898 (120,386 Total)
6) Bun B II Trill 19,994 (182,541 Total)
7) Rick Ross Trilla 13.804 (577,486 Total)

Honestly, I did not think Lil Wayne would sell 1 million copies in a week. The fact that he outsold both Kanye West and 50 Cent is ridiculous. Then again, not really, considering how many non-rap fans like this guy. But you gotta give him props, he's probably recorded like 1000 tracks in the past year.

I'm honestly laughing at this list right now just because of the fact that Plies sold that many records. But it's cool to see Bun B still has it. In today's world of rap, selling 200,000 is good.
