Thursday Billboard Update - 8/30/12

Trey Songz grabs his first #1 album as Chapter V debuts atop the Billboard 200 with 135,000 sold. DJ Khaled's new album Kiss The Ring debuts at #4 with 41,000 sold. For the first time in 79 weeks, Adele's 21 is not in the top 10, falling 8-12. She'll likely return next week, but it's worth noting.

Pretty boring week in the top 10 of the Hot 100 this week.
