ChartWatch for March 17, 2010 “I’m on the rise, so many people despise me Got party ammunition for those tryin to surprise me It’s a celebration and everyone should invite me” – Christopher Ludacris Bridges I dont know if he is a despised as he likes to believe because a lot a fans showed up to support him this week. Ludacris released Battle of the Sexes last week and it has moved 136,000 copies since its debut. The Atlanta MC grabs the number one spot this week which is pretty big for a rapper in todays sales climate. He is followed, at number two, by the Gorillaz (they have a rapper so Im including them), the animated hip/pop/rap group and their latest disc Plastic Beach. The group sells 110,000 copies for the sales week. Sade takes another dip, dropping from 2 to 6 and selling 55,000 copies of her latest album, Soldier of Love. The Black Eyed Peas also drop a spot but continue to sell more copies of their monster album The E.N.D. This week the group moves another 42,000 copies. Moving beyond the top ten we find Lil Wayne and his rock themed album Rebirth. This week the New Orleans MC moves another 28,000 copies. Plus with Gucci Mane and Jay-Z falling out of the top 50 the remaining album is from Waynes label Young Money. We Are Young Money sells 15,000 copies and takes the 33rd spot. There arent too many albums dropping this week so well be back next time with more from the charts.
