Thursday Billboard Update - 10/23/08

Kenny Chesney obviously learned his lesson from last year and made sure he came out with his new album on a week where zero rappers dropped albums lol. His new record, Lucky Old Sun, does knock T.I.'s Paper Trail out of #1, but that record has been out for 2 weeks. That's pretty much it on the 200 because nothing else of importance really happened. This would've been a great week to drop than album, but I know everybody is waiting until December to try to let Christmas boost their otherwise low sales lol.

Things went back to normal this week as T.I. regain his #1 spot with that amazingly mundane single Whatever You Like (I still don't get what hoes like about that record lol). Nothing else important happens here either besides M.I.A.'s Paper Planes finally exiting the top 10.
