Thursday Billboard Update - 4/26/12


Lionel Richie's Tuskegee remains #1 for a 2nd week. What is this, 1986?? Believe it or not, 41,000 people bought Garbage Ass Future's (his new name) shitty album Pluto and it debuts at #8. I know that's still not a whole lot, but nobody should be buying that trash.

Gotye's Somebody That I Used to Know also remains at #1 for another week, while Maroon 5's Payphone featuring Wiz Khalifa debuts at #3.
