| After
falling to No. 4 last week, Jay-Z's "The Black Album" is back
on top of The Billboard 200. In its third week, sales of the Roc-A-Fella/Def
Jam set declined just 10% to 260,000 copies, bringing the to-date sales
total of "The Black Album" above the 1 million mark. In a week
that saw new releases from Missy Elliott, Nelly, Enrique Iglesias and Nelly
Furtado, only No Doubt came close to challenging the rap superstar for No.
1.
The California group's Interscope compilation "The Singles 1992-2003" sold 253,000 copies to bow at No. 2. Sales were just short of the 255,000 opening week copies posted by No Doubt's 2001 studio album, "Rock Steady," which debuted at No. 9 and has sold 2.7 million to date. The band's current cover of Talk Talk's "It's My Life" is up 9-7 on the Top 40 Mainstream Chart published by Billboard sister publication Airplay Monitor. |
