Thursday Billboard Update - 8/27/09

Reba
There's nothing going on in the top 10 as far as I'm concerned.

No new entries into the top 10 this week, but the same ol' guys in a few different spots. Jay Sean's Down does reach a new high at #3 though.

The Billboard 200 1-10

  • Did you know Sean Paul dropped an album?? Well he did and Imperial Blaze debuted at #12 with 28,000 sold. That's pretty good for an album no one knew about. I remember him dropping a single and in the actual post it does say its dropping August 18th, but I just figured it got pushed back since I hadn't heard anything else until now. I mean I didn't even see the album leak online or anything.
  • Neo-Soul singer Ledisi also dropped an album, Turn Me Loose, last week and it came in at #14 with 27,000 sold. May be I was just out of the loop, but I had no idea this came out either.
