Albums marked with bold have had their sales updated since the previous post. Will be updated with the actual numbers once they become available.

Total number of albums on chart: 164

Albums selling over 2,000,000: 1
Albums selling over 1,000,000: 3
Albums selling over 500,000: 8
Albums selling over 250,000: 14
Albums selling over 100,000: 28
Albums selling over 50,000: 44 (probably 45-47)

We get a lot of updates to the list. Most importantly, Wiz is now definitely in front of BME, and Pitbull is one or two weeks away from surpassing Wale for #9 - he has been outselling him by 1,5 to 2k per week for a while now.

Yelawolf is not at 140k+ up to #22, while Tyler has almost caught up to Tech N9ne and is outselling him by 350-500 copies per week. He should surpass him in two to three weeks to rise to #17.

Kendrick Lamar continues to sell very well and has now surpassed 50k with 'Section.80'.

Albums marked with bold have had their numbers updated.

Another week in which we don't get the full numbers, so all the charts are updated from the BB200 and the Catalog charts.

Lots of movement around the chart and a few old albums that we missed added due to the numbers we got this week. Now we have a better picture of the top 20, where we have a single new debut at the very last position.

All of the albums in the top 10 have now sold over 50k. E-40 had an update to his three albums, which have sold a combined total of more than 55,000 so far. I added the 9,500 first week sales of the bundle set - arguably he has sold some more of that since then, so his real sales are almost surely a few thousand higher.

Not so many updates this week, as we have to deal with BB200 and Catalog updates and nothing else. Wale drops out of the top 200, so Pitbull temporarily goes to #9, although he should surpass him in numbers within a week or two.

Albums marked with bold have had their numbers updated.

Another week in which we don't get the full numbers, so all the charts are updated from the BB200 and the Catalog charts.

No big movers, just a single debut for El-P, who scores his highest debut on the BB200 ever with the highly-acclaimed "Cancer For Cure".

[Lehmann]

So boring year for hip hop.
It looks like you forgot to update Nicki Minaj numbers

[skycycle]

Thanks, it's fixed now.

It's been a slow start for hip-hop, but things will get interesting very soon - albums from ASAP, Nas, Waka, Rick Ross, Big KRIT, Curren$y, DMX, MMG and many more - this is only during June & July

So stay tuned, I'm sure a few surprises are in store for all of us I'm also positive that Nicki and her shitty album will not be #1 come year's end

[Willypedia]

The 10 best hip-hop albums of 2012 I heard so far:

Killer Mike - R.A.P. Music
Big KRIT - 4eva N A Day

El-P - Cancer 4 Cure
Apollo Brown & OC - Trophies
Odd Future - The OF Tape Vol. 2

[Lehmann]

Reks - Straight, No Chaser is very decent album too
Looking forward for Big K.R.I.T., Nas and DMX albums, not sure if I'm even going to check ASAP, Curren$y and Maybach Music ones
Good one, Willy!

LOOK WHO'S BACK ON TOP

Adele Returns to #1 thanks to NBC Special; Alan Jackson, Beach Boys, Curren$y, Big K.R.I.T. Bow

June 6, 2012

With the impact of her NBC special this past Sunday now clear, it looks as though Adele will score another week at #1, her 24th, tying the record for fourth longest run on top of the album charts with the Purple Rain and Saturday Night Fever soundtracks. West Side Story holds the record for most weeks at #1 with 54, with Michael Jackson's Thriller #2 at 37 weeks. Tied for third place are Fleetwood Mac's Rumours, Harry Belafonte's Calypso and South Pacific, all with 31 weeks.

Alan Jackson's 30 Miles West, his Capitol Nashville/EMI bow after many years with Arista Nashville, looks to be the top-charting debut, with between 65-70k, based on one-day reports from whatever retailers haven't paved paradise and put up a parking lot.

The Beach Boys' Capitol/EMI comeback, That's Why God Made the Radio, is the next highest new entry with 60-65k.

Warner Bros. rapper Curren$y's The Stoned Immaculate, featuring Wiz Khalifa, Wale, 2 Chainz and Big K.R.I.T., remarkably, his eighth album since 2009, is on target for 40-45k, the same amount for Def Jam/IDJ hip-hop artist Big K.R.I.T.'s highly anticipated debut, Live from the Underground.

Columbia singer-songwriter Brandi Carlile's Bear Creek looks to be in the 25-30k range, the same as Reprise legend Neil Young & Crazy Horse's collection of folk standards like "Oh! Susanna" and "This Land Is Your Land," Americana.

Fantasy/Concord Music Group's Joe Walsh is looking at sales between 19-22k for his solo effort, Analog Man.

WaterTower's soundtrack for the upcoming '80s hair-metal homage, Rock of Ages, starring Tom Cruise, Alec Baldwin and Russell Brand, is eyeing between 12-15k, the same total predicted for Columbia's Victorious, the cast album from the hit Nickelodeon series.

Solid numbers, biggest 1st week for Currensy I think? If they stay below 50k they won't debut within the top 10 of our chart, but they should charge into it the week after. Based on the longevity of the albums, both have a shot at snatching a top 20-25 place come year's end

Great.
What do you use for producing ?

I've got Fruity Loops 10, but when it comes the sampling, I use the MPC2000XL. And then I use Pro Tools for the mix and the master.

Anyway this is my new song, I dropped it today...it's not a beat, it's a full song, with verses and hooks. We might even shoot a music video for it. It's a club song, no conscious themes, sounds like a Chris Brown/Young Money song but with better verses, well at least that's what I think, Let me know what y'all think about it.

The sales were late in leaking last week, so I will just wait a few days until (hopefully) the new ones leak and I will update them all, filling in any blanks from the previous week of course...

According to BB, Big K.R.I.T. debuted at #5 and Currensy at #8, with 41k and 36k respectively.

The shocking news? Waka Flocka is predicted to debut with less than both of them, right now heading for between 25-30k. I guess I really need to revise my prediction list, as it now seems Waka will struggle to have good sales, just as B.O.B. will likely not see Gold this time around.

Makes you wonder when will someone take Nicki Minaj off that first spot, eh?

Comments?

EDIT: I actually decided to post the 2012 chart for last week, just for comparison purposes. You can find it below this post, with 2 new albums on it.

According to HDD, Ursh’s latest album, Looking 4 Myself, is slated to unseat Adele’s 21 from the top of the charts with 120-130,000 sold in its first week. It’s 200,000 copies less than his previous album, 2010’s Raymond v. Raymond.

Meanwhile, Waka Flocka Flame’s sophomore LP Triple F Life: Fans, Friends & Family will have a considerably smaller first-week run with a projected 25-30,000 albums expected to sell. His last album, Flockaveli, bowed with 37,000 copies sold.

Hip Hop Album Sales: The Week Ending 6/10/2012
#5. Big K.R.I.T. - Live From The Underground - 41,000 (41,000)

#8. Curren$y - The Stoned Immaculate - 36,000 (36,000)

#22. Nicki Minaj - Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded - 35,000 (522,000)

#42. Drake - Take Care - 8,300 (1,770,000)

#43. B.o.B. - Strange Clouds - 8,200 (149,000)

#70. Tyga - Careless World: Rise Of The Last King - 5,600 (244,000)

#72. Travis Porter - From Day 1 - 5,500 (20,000)

#86. Future - Pluto - 5,000 (102,000)

#106. Jay-Z & Kanye West - Watch The Throne - 4,200 (1,445,000)

#192. Childish Gambino - Camp - 2,200 (160,000)

Albums marked with bold have had their numbers updated.

Another week in which we don't get the full numbers, so all the charts are updated from the BB200 and the Catalog charts.

Big KRIT and Currensy debut outside the top 10 at #11 and #13 respectively, but they should crack it in one or two weeks time. Future's "Pluto" becomes the 4th hip-hop release to surpass 100k sold - and we are in the middle of June...

[skycycle]

I updated the 3 charts we are currently following (2010-11-12) for the past week, a bit late, but better than nothing

Here is the HipHopDx article for this week, while we wait for numbers. Waka opening much lower than I expected, while Kid Ink shames him after selling 20k with a digital-only release... Same old story all over again

Hip Hop Album Sales: The Week Ending 6/17/2012
#10. Waka Flocka Flame - Triple F Life: Fans, Friends & Family - 33,000 (33,000)

#20. Kid Ink - Up & Away - 20,000 (20,000)

#29. Big K.R.I.T. - Live From The Underground - 12,000 (53,000)

#31. Nicki Minaj - Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded - 12,000 (534,000)

Albums marked with bold have had their numbers updated.

Another week in which we don't get the full numbers, so all the charts are updated from the BB200 and the Catalog charts.

This time I've combined the charts, since we got an early release of this week's numbers - almost all the updates are from both weeks, the others I've added but they are not bold, since we only got last week's #s.

The Project X Soundtrack receives a huge boost, selling more than 11k this week and temporarily replacing Future's Pluto as the #4 album on this chart. Meanwhile, Big KRIT has made it to the top 10, and he will soon be followed by Currensy and Waka, currently at #12 and #13. Tyga surpasses 250k, becoming the second album this year to do so.
