Thursday Billboard Update - 10/22/09

Crazy Love
Not much going on on the Billboard 200 this week. The Black Eyed Peas' The E.N.D. jumps back into things with 39,600 sold this week and landing back in the top 10 at #6. Mario's new album D.N.A. (which I had no idea was coming out) debuted at #9 with 31,700 sold. Not bad for 0 promotion.

This week Jay Sean reclaims his spot atop the Hot 100 with his single Down. I'm not sure how much longer he can keep it up though because The Black Eyed Peas' Meet Me Halfway finally made it to the top 10 (17-9) and has its black eyes set on #1.
