Thursday Billboard Update - 6/25/09

The Jonas Brothers take over the #1 spot with their new album Lines, Vines, & Trying Times (which sounds coke inspired if you ask me) which sold 247,000 in its first week. Eminem is now the sole Hip-Hop act in the top 10.

Jumping promptly into the top 10 this week is Drake's Best I Ever Had at #3! BAM! I told you, I told you, I told you!!! Also landing in the top 10 is Drake's other single Every Girl featuring Young Money coming in at #10. Drake won and XXL's Freshman class issue loss lol.

  • Debuting at #32 is a group with possibly the laziest name in Hip-Hop history, the New Boyz, and their new single You're A Jerk. Man, XXL's Freshmen class issue misses again lol.
  • Beyonce is at 'em again as Ego (aka "the dick song that I feel uncomfortable listening to because its an ode to penis" lol) soars 14 spaces 58-44.
