rap albums on the billboard chart

I have to apologise for not bringing you this segment of my blog for two weeks now; i usally do this weekly, but because i have been very busy working on my book(which is now done), i didn't have time to bring it for you guys. Enough of the story, back to why you are reading this. There are a couple of new rap albums on the billboard chart, but they are not doing big numbers.

Eminem is still killing the charts, moving units than anybody out right now. His RECOVERY album has sold 1,828,000 copies so far in the U.S, and it did 159,000 copies this week. The album is gearing towards 4 million copies in global sales, and it would have gone 2 times platinum by this time next week.

RICK ROSS'S fourth album, "teflon don" is the next contender on the charts after eminem for the highest selling rap album. It did 63,000 copies in its second week, bringing it to a total of 239,000 copie sold so far.

DRAKE is almost plat at 915,000 copies sold so far. The young money artist sold 34,000 copies this week. A couple of weeks more, and he would be certified platinum.

Tech N9ne did 17 thousand copies this week, bringing his total to 107,000. And Fat joe's 10th album, THE DARK SIDE VOL 1, did 12,300 copies in its debut week.
