  • I've been monitoring Estelle's American Boy for the past few weeks as it ascends and it just moved another 10 spot 26-16. This was definitely a late bloomer but go Estelle! I gotta go check the Billboard 200 to see if its effecting album sales.
  • MTV's Buzzin' star Shwayze has this week's top debut with Corona And Lime coming in at #26. I thought the actual track Buzzin' was the hit, but I guess not, MTV may wanna consider changing the title of the show to "Corona And Lime" lol.
  • After finally debuting on Hot a few weeks ago ago, M.I.A.'s Paper Planes jumps 19 spots 55-36 off the strength of the Pineapple Express promo (I believe I called that).
  • Kid Rock's All Summer Long's strength on the Rock charts has powered his album Rock N Roll Jesus back into the top 5 on the Billboard 200 and now its finally making moves on Hot as it jumps 14 spots 52-38.
  • Oh, nevermind what I said about Buzzin', here it is! Shwayze's lead single featuring Cisco Adler skied 47 spots 93-46.
