Wiz Khalifa Drops To No. 6 In This Week’s Album Sales (9/3/2014)
Wiz Khalifa's reign at No. 1 on the charts has ended after one week. After selling a little over 85,000 units of his latest album Blacc Hollywood last week, Wiz's sales have dropped sharply in the second week. Wiz sold 30,148 units this past week, placing him at No. 6 on the charts.
Hip-hop's landscape is looking a little better since last week, especially with the release of G-Unit's The Beauty of Independence EP last Sunday. The EP debuted at a respectable No. 17 on the charts, selling 14,246 units. Iggy Azalea's The New Classic received a 23% bump in sales from last week, placing her at No. 14 on the charts, as opposed to No. 16 on the charts last week. Iggy is continuing her dominance over the summer, and inching her closer and closer to Gold status.
Outside of the hip-hop world, Beyonce's eponymous album received a jolt in sales after her performance at the VMAs last Sunday. Her album moved 15,315 units over the past week, placing her at No. 13 on the charts, whereas her album was not even in the Top 50 last week. Trey Songz's Trigga album dropped 13 spots since last week, placing him at No. 37 with 7,058 albums sold last week.
