The Numbers Game: Elle Varner Debuts At #4

Even in a week where only one album on the charts sold over 100,000 (The Now That’s What I Call Music! compilation sold 111,000 copies for the #1 position), you still gotta say it’s a win that Elle Varner‘s debut album Perfectly Imperfect grabbed the #4 spot. It actually did better than projected by selling 33,000 units. We gave our patented review treatment to Elle Varner’s Perfectly Imperfect; check that out by clicking here.
