It’s time to get the tallies from another week of album sales. This week we have two new entries in the Top 200.
Leela James hits the charts with her hightest debut ever. Her third album My Soul comes in at #37. Leela is a overlooked talent and of course we here at nappyafro love her hair.
Cam’ron makes an unexpected splash on the charts this week. I honestly didn’t know Heat In Here, Vol. 1 was actually up for sale. Have you seen that cover? But hey, he still sold 4,000 units for a mixtape. Props to him & Vado.
