rap albums on the billboard chart

Yeah, another week has gone by, and it is time for us to check out the rap albums on the billboard top 200 album charts. Unfortunately this week, there are no new rap releases, but just the same albums that have been on the chart, moving up or down.

B.o.b's the "adventures of bobby ray" is at the top of rap albums on the charts this week. He is at number 13 on the billboard top 200 albums charts, with 20,000 copies sold this week, bringing his debut solo album to a total of 210,000 copies sold so far,

The next album on the list is the duo album between reggae veteran and son of the late BOB MARLEY, "damian marley", and RAP LEGEND, NAS. Distant relatives is at number 18 this week, with 17,000 copies sold this week. In three weeks, the duo have managed to sell a cumulative total of 100,000 copies. I think the album is meant to have done more than that, but to quote one of nas's line on the album, "people don't want to hear the truth.", cos their album IS the truth. A perfect blend or rap and reggae. Just for the record, the album has sold about 250k copies worldwide.

Ludacris is up next with his highly versatile album, battle of the sexes. I have always seen ludacris as the must underrated rapper in the game; as my friend always says, luda's verses are like solar eclipse's; after he drops his verse, you must probably won't see the next rapper coming, cos luda would have stole the show. His 7th solo album did 12,000 copies this week, brining the total sales to 441,000 copies so far. He is almost GOLD, and if he does not make it to platinum, not to worry, cos two of his singles, HOW LOW, and "my chick bad", have already sold in excess of a million copies as individual records. Wow! Good for him. Battle of the sexes comes in at number 28 on this weeks' billboard top 200 album charts.

Re-entering the charts again, this week is DRAKE, the rapper with the hottest buzz right now, that seemed to be doing a lot of singing this days. His mixtape, that got him his popularity, and was later re-packed and sold as an album, SO FAR GONE, is back on the charts this week, selling 5,000 copies. Bringing the total sales for the cd to 474,000 copies sold. Not gold yet, but a lot of people are pitching him to sell in excess of a million copies in his first week in stores, with his début solo album; THANK ME LATER, which has already leaked on the internet.

THE SELF PROCLAIMED QUEEN OF THE SOUTH, TRINA, is still moving some units on the charts. Her latest work, AMAZING, is coming at number 97 this week, almost out of the top 100 albums, of the billboard charts. The album sold 4,700 copies this week, bringing the total to 59,000 copies sold so far.

REFLECTION ETERNAL'S album, "revolution per minute", sold 4,700 copies this week, bringing the total sales so far to 33k copies, As I said, the people dropping the truth are no longer selling.

The last album on the charts worth mentioning is southern rapper, GUCCI MANE'S album, "The State vs Radric Davis", which is coming in at number 162 on the charts; and selling 2,900 copies this week. This brings his total sales to 369,000 copies.

That's it, and please, if you want any extra data concerning sales, don't hesitate to leave a comment, and I will sure work on it.

I have been hearing a lot on how GOON AFFILIATED, "Plies" new album is doing. I heard it is selling out in stores. It was released 2 days ago, the 8 of june, so get ready for a big number rap album next week.
I am pitching it to sell between 200-300 copies in its first week.
