Rap:
Nas’ Untitled has cracked 300k
Lil Wayne - Tha Carter 3 2.1 million
G-Unit - T.O.S. 193k
Kanye West - Graduation 2.1 million
50 Cent - Curtis wasn’t n the top 200 so I don’t know the exact number, under 2 milli though
Rick Ross - Trilla Over 650k
N.E.R.D. - Seeing Sounds over 150k
Plies - Definition Of Real 54k short of gold
David Banner - 100k
Three 6 Mafia - 200k
The Clipse Present The Re Up Gang - 10k

R&B:
Rihanna - Good Girl Gone Bad - 1.5 million
Keyshia Cole - Just Like You - 1.5 million
Ashanti - Declaration Over 200k
Alicia Keys - As I Am 3.5 million
Usher - Here I Stand - Shy of a milli
The Dream - Love Hate is almost gold
Lloyd - Lessons In Love 51k
Good to see The Dream will be going gold, the album was fire. Lloyd
had a weak opening but can make it up if he got some good singles,
having Lil Wayne didn’t get the same buzz this time around. Nas’
Untitled needs another single ASAP, while T.O.S. doesn’t look like it
will make it to gold.

so Nas broke gold, 3 6 should have gotten better sales... g-unit blows - barely 200k
& clipse the re-up gangs sales are terrible if this isnt their first album in stores.
