I missed posting up these album sale numbers yesterday. That was because I thought they were delayed because of the 4th of July (Plus I’m lazy and really didn’t bother on checking).
If you are a person who watches out for things like album sales, you probably already know that Trey Songz‘s album Trigga is the #1 album in the country. This is actually Trey’s second consecutive #1 album. Trigga sold 104,000 copies in it’s first week.
Another thing that has made the news is the low sales of Robin Thicke‘s Paula; specifically him only selling 530 copies in the The United Kingdom. Well, the good news is that while the album has a lot of cringe-worthy lyrics, it sold much better in the United States. Paula pushed 23,700 units last week and grabbed the #9 spot (For some funny commentary on this album, check out the latest rant heavy episodes of The FRO Horsemen & The FROCAST).
