Here we go again. Another dose of your weekly Numbers Game. Well, in today’s edition: Mariah still rules, Atmosphere does what a lot majors can’t, & Prodigy gets no appreciation. Now that I think about it, only 1 Hip-Hop artist is in the Top 10. Does next week bring any hope? With releases from Lyfe Jennings, Lil’ Mama, and Estelle; it depends on who you ask.
