So the Billboard is updated weekly on Thursday’s! So you all will be update each week on Thursday or Friday. Now that the confusion with that is out the way, let’s talk about the albums on the billboard chart. Looking at this chart every week is a true reminder of economic times….Almost every album that debuted 2 weeks ago is already out of the top 25, and looking at the weekly numbers for album sales for the top couple of albums on the billboard 200, if they aren’t in the top 10, they might have only sold 30 albums for the week!

Yeah, that’s pretty shitty…I mean, Taylor Swift…country singer, model, actress, last album went triple platinum…this one of the hottest chicks in the game right now! But her latest album, which has now been on the billboard chart for 30 weeks and hasn’t fell from the top 10 once, hasn’t even gone gold!!!!!

With all that said, it’s almost a sigh of relief that Eminem has released his Relapse album. I mean, Eminem is one of the best rappers of all time, and we’ve all seen the kind of numbers his sound scan has done in the past. He held us down in the #1 spot for the previous 2 weeks, only to fall to #2 this week, but I think that he will be at the top for a while longer, and no doubt will be our leader on the chart for weeks to come. All other albums on this chart are doing alright i guess… Like I said in the beginning, if the album isn’t in the top 10 or so, they may be only selling a couple hundred or so albums per week……
