Lupe Fiasco's LASERS album is still the number 1 rap album on the charts, but is no longer the number one album over-all on the top 200 album charts. The album dropped 75% in sales, and sold 47,000 copies this week, bringing the total after 2 weeks in stores to 251,000 copies. I think that is still looking good, considering the fact that that is half way to gold status, and a lot of rappers nowadays don't even sell that much their entire album sales.




Next up is Nicki Minaj's PINK FRIDAY album. She is still popping, still a "burning match" as Lil Kim said, although we don't know how next year or the one after would be for her. But right now, let us celebrate her success. Her debut album sold 25,000 copies this week, and now stands at a grand total of 1,239,000 copies sold.




Recovery from Eminem is up next with 20k sold this week. Eminem's 6th album is now at a total of 3,737,000 copies sold. He is moving towards the 4 million in u.s, but has far surpassed that internationally. He has sold over 7 million copies of the album internationally.




My Beautiful Twisted Dark Fantasy, the album from Kanye west sold 11,000 copies this week, and the album sales is now at 1,085,000. Reakwon's new album, Shaolin vs Wu-Tang, sold 9,400 this week, and now at a total of 38,000 copies.
