Maxwell Tops Billboard 200, Sales Career-High

I don't know if its because of everyone being in the store to buy Michael Jackson album, or because people just really love Maxwell that much, but his latest album BLACKsummers'night has sold 319,000 in its first week and will debut #1 when the Billboard 200 is released tomorrow. That's a career-high for Maxwell, besting his previous high of 296,000 on his last album Now.

And just think, he didn't even use auto-tune or sell out and make a ringtone song (*cough* Musiq *cough*). Real music wins again.
