Okay, of course we all expected Nasir to grab the top spot from Weezy on the Billboard 200. I’m still suprised that after all that publicity Nigger/Untitled recieved from main media outlets, that it only pulled in around 180,000. I guess everybody can’t leak 2 weeks before the official release date and still sale a million copies. In other chart news, Tha Carter III continues to do crazy numbers, David Banner cracks the Top 10, and the rest is the whatever….
