The Game's Blood Moon: Year Of The Wolf debuted at No. 8 on the charts this week, with 30,544 units sold. It's a rather disappointing showing for an album that had a good amount of promo behind it, and a few solid tracks with all-star features such as "Hit Em Hard," "Fuck Yo Feelings," and "Really" among others. In comparison, Childish Gambino's Kauai sold over 18,000 albums last week; its second week, with no promo.

Four. That is the number of hip-hop albums that took a spot in the Top 50 this week. With Iggy Azalea's The New Classic and Flying Lotus's You're Dead dropping out of the charts since last week, and The Game's project charting this week, the only albums that were on the charts last week that remain this week are Jeezy's Seen It All, Lecrae's Anomaly, and Childish Gambino's Kauai. Anomaly grabbed the No. 34 spot this week, dropping only one spot, and selling 8,460 units over the past week. Seen It All has reached the 200,000 total units sold milestone this week, grabbing the No. 38 spot in the process, selling 7,449 copies. Finally, Childish Gambino's Kauai landed at the No. 42 spot, selling 6,846 units.

As stated in previous weeks, the influx of hip-hop projects in final quarter of the year, such as newly released Logic's Under Pressure and T.I.'s Paperwork, should see the charts become more favorable towards hip-hop.

Outside of the hip-hop world, Chris Brown's X continues to have a solid showing on the charts, selling 12,115 units and landing on the No. 23 spot this week. Keyshia Cole's Point Of No Return took the No. 43 spot, selling 6,846 copies. Tinashe's Aquarius drops a dramatic 30 spots this week, taking the No. 46 spot, while selling 5,886 units. Finally, Jhene Aiko's Souled Out lands at the No. 47 spot, selling 5,664 units.
