The remainder of the top 10 will find Norah Jones' Come Away With Me dropping two spots to #4 (100,000) Avril Lavigne's Let Go taking a step back to #5 (82,000) the soundtrack to Oscar favorite "Chicago" holding onto its #6 position (81,000) Jennifer Lopez's This Is Me. Thanks to his new film "Deliver Us From Eva," which opened in theaters last week, and the subsequent attention derived from working the late-night talk-show circuit, the muscle-bound MC's 10th album enjoyed a weekly sales increase of more than 55,000 copies. LL Cool J returns to the top 10 with authority as his 10 will rocket up 75 spots to #9 (66,000). Close behind will be Kid Rock's Cocky, which, after more than 14 months, achieved its highest chart position at #3, with more than 103,000 copies sold last week due to the crossover success of its latest single, "Picture."Ĭountry singer Blake Shelton will have the next-highest charting debut with his second album, The Dreamer, which will land at #8 with more than 76,000 copies sold.

Although 50's album was released five days early to combat bootlegging (see "Industry Insiders Say Bootlegging Won't Dent 50 Cent"), it's questionable whether having the extra two days would have increased his total, since many retail outlets reported the album sold out after the first couple of days on the shelves. The Queens MC sold more copies of his debut LP last week than all the other top 10 albums combined and 50's one-week tally is the largest since Shania Twain moved more than 874,000 copies of Up! in November.Įven more remarkable is the fact the volume was attained in a shortened sales cycle. Only Snoop Dogg's 1993 debut, Doggystyle, comes close, with more than 802,000 copies sold in its first week. With the tremendous total, the LP is the best-selling debut album since SoundScan started its tracking system in May 1991. Get Rich or Die Tryin' will be the top-selling album on next week's Billboard albums chart, moving in excess of 872,000 copies, according to SoundScan figures released Wednesday (February 12). In less than a week, Get Rich or Die Tryin' has turned 50 Cent into a cash cow for his record label.
