Welcome to really late edition of The Numbers Game. The reason? I was busy. Mind your business.
Seriously, this week had only one notable release from the world of Hip-Hop & R&B and it’s Sage The Gemini with his debut album Remember Me. That album title is funny because it almost felt like most people forgot that Sage released an album last week. Sage still managed to sell 7,200 and cracked the Top 50. You think he’d sell more since he has two huge hits under his belt (“Red Nose” & “Gas Pedal”). But he’s also smashing Kaylin Garcia so he’s not doing too bad.
