Thursday Billboard Update - 9/1/11

The Game's R.E.D. Album takes over the #1 spot on the Billboard 200 by narrowly beating out Jay-Z and Kanye West's Watch The Throne with 97,528 albums sold. Watch The Throne sold 94,227 albums and slipped to #2. Also, debuting at #8, and bringing the beef to The Game is Muppets: The Green Album. (Damn I wish they spelled it G.R.E.E.N.!)

We have a new #1 on the Hot 100 as well this week as Maroon 5's Moves Like Jagger featuring Christina Aguilera leaps 3 spaces from #4. Last week's #1, Katy Perry's Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.), slides to #5. Entering the top 10 at #10 is the Gym Class Heroes' Stereo Hearts featuring Adam Levine.
