Thursday Billboard Update - 9/2/10

Katy Perry's Teenage Dream (which would've been a great name for R. Kelly's new album, especially with the semen-ish drippings on the title) takes over at #1 from Eminem's Recovery with 192,100 sold first week. Coming in at #2 is Fantasia's Back To Me with 117,100 sold. Hopefully this will stop her from being dropped by her label so she doesn't have to have another "suicide attempt." And finally, Usher's Versus EP debuts at #4 with 45,900 sold.

After cracking the top 10 last week, Lil Wayne's Right Above It featuring Drake and B.o.B's Magic fall and are replaced by Taylor Swift's Mine (14-9) and Ke$ha's Take It Off (16-10).
