Thursday Billboard Update - 8/4/11

Kelly Rowland's Here I Am debuts at #3 with 77,100 albums sold. Pretty decent for Kelly Rowland. Amy Winehouse's Back To Black doesn't top the charts this week like I guessed, but it did rise 5 spots to #4 with 53,700 albums sold in the past week. Still not sure how it's not a cataloged album, but whatever. Rejoining the top 10 at #10 is Bad Meets Evil's Hell: The Sequel with 26,000 more albums sold.

Not too much going on on the Hot 100, Britney Spears' Go does crack the top 10 at #9.
