[情報] Jill Scott Celebrates First No. 1 Album on Billboard 200
R&B singer Jill Scott celebrates her first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200
chart as her fourth studio effort, "The Light of the Sun," debuts atop the
list with 135,000 sold according to Nielsen SoundScan.
She's been notching hits on the chart beginning with her 2000 debut, "Who Is
Jill Scott?," rose to a No. 17 peak the following year. Since then, she's
released three more studio albums, a live set and a collaborations collection.
Right behind her at No. 2 this week is folk rock act Bon Iver, who sees its
self-titled second full-length album take a bow with 104,000. This marks both
its highest-charting set and best sales week yet. Fronted by
singer/songwriter Justin Vernon, the Bon Iver's previous high-water mark came
when its "Blood Bank" EP debuted and peaked at No. 16 with 23,000 in 2009.
Adele's "21" holds at No. 3 with 101,000 (down 12%) while Jackie Evancho's
"Dream With Me" falls two to No. 4 in its second week (77,000; down 52%).
"21" spends its 18th week lodged in the top three of the chart while its
cumulative sales rise to 2.43 million. It continues to reign as the U.S.'
top-selling album of 2011.
Country singer Justin Moore's second full-length album, "Outlaws Like Me,"
debuts at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 and No. 1 on the Country Albums chart
with 65,000. The runner-up on the Country Albums chart this week, Jason
Aldean's "My Kinda Party," slips five rungs on the Billboard 200 to No. 10
with 40,000 (down 22%).
Last week's No. 1, Bad Meets Evil's "Hell: the Sequel," also falls five slots
to No. 6 (63,000; down 63%) while Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" dips four to
No. 8 (49,000; down 27%). Sandwiched between those two is a new arrival from
Pitbull, as his "Planet Pit" starts at No. 7 with 55,000. It's his second top
10 set following 2009's "Rebelution," which debuted and peaked at No. 8. His
new album was preceded by the set's top 10 Billboard Hot 100 singles "Hey
Baby (Drop It To the Floor)" (featuring T-Pain) and "Give Me Everything"
(featuring Ne-Yo, Afrojack & Nayer).
Rounding out the new entries in the top 10 this week is "Weird Al" Yankovic
who earns his highest charting album ever as "Alpocalypse" laughs its way to
at No. 9 debut (44,000). Led by the single "Perform This Way" (a parody of
Lady Gaga's "Born This Way"), the album surpasses his previous career-high
peak with his last studio set, 2006's "Straight Outta Lynwood," which debuted
and peaked at No. 10.
Over on the Digital Songs chart, Katy Perry's "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)"
fends off the advances of Maroon 5 and Christina Aguilera as the former holds
at No. 1 (226,000; down 4%) while the latter pairing's new "Moves Like
Jagger" debuts in the No. 2 slot with 213,000. The latter single premiered on
the June 21 edition of NBC's "The Voice," where Maroon front man Adam Levine
and Aguilera serve as coaches to the singing contestants.
LMFAO's "Party Rock Anthem" (featuring Lauren Bennett & GoonRock) is pushed
back a slot to No. 3 (212,000) despite its 1% sales gain while Pitbull's
"Give Me Everything" slips a rung to No. 4 (187,000; down 7%). Adele's
"Rolling in the Deep" is stationary at No. 5 (170,000; down 9%), Nicki
Minaj's "Super Bass" slides up one to No. 6 (169,000; up 13%) and Lady Gaga's
"The Edge of Glory" falls one to No. 7 (149,000; down 1%). Jason Aldean's
"Dirt Road Anthem" falls four slots to No. 8 (141,000; down 26%) and Lil
Wayne's "How to Love" moves 9-10 (130,000; 1%).
Making a big jump into the top 10 is Hot Chelle Rae's "Tonight Tonight,"
which zips 14-9 with 137,000 (up 41%). It's the sixth straight weekly sales
gain for the song, which concurrently bullets at No. 12 on the Pop Songs
airplay chart.
Overall album sales in this past chart week (ending June 26) totaled 5.92
million units, down 6% compared to the sum last week (6.30 million) and down
2% compared to the comparable sales week of 2010 (6.07 million). Year to date
album sales stand at 149.12 million, up less than 1% compared to the same
total at this point last year (148.42 million). It is the fifth week in a row
where year-to-date album volume is greater than the same time in the prior
year.
Digital track sales this past week totaled 25.29 million downloads, up 1%
compared to last week (25.11 million) and up 17% stacked next to the
comparable week of 2010 (21.57 million). Year to date track sales are at
635.35 million, up 10% compared to the same total at this point last year
(575.96 million).
Next week's Billboard 200 competes with the same week in 2010 when: Eminem's
"Recovery" held at No. 1 for a second week (313,000; down 58%) while
The-Dream's "Love King" was the top debut at No. 4 with 58,000.
