Thursday Billboard Update - 8/12/10

After being beat out by Avenged Sevenfold's Nightmare by 3,847 albums last week, Eminem's Recovery still can't recover the #1 spot being best by 4,006 by Arcade Fire's The Suburbs this week. Recovery moves 152,073 in its 7th week and The Suburbs sells 156,079 in its first. What a great problem to have if you're Eminem. I'm sure his double platinum status next week will make up for it. Recovery has sold 1,980,373 copies thus far.

Also, Bun B's Trill O.G. debuts at #4 with 40,530 sold.

Eminem and Rihanna's Love The Way You Lie retains the #1 spot over on the Hot 100 this week, but there's no telling how long that will last as Taylor Swift new single Mine debuts at #3 after only a few days of its release.
