As expected, Rick Ross‘s latest album God Forgives, I Don’t grabs the #1 spot on the Billboard charts this week (The 4th #1 album of his career). And while he didn’t push The Throne or Drake numbers, he did do more than Chris Brown’s last album Fortune and almost as much as Nicki Manaj’s Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded. More importantly, Rozay sold more this his album before God Forgives, I Don’t, Teflon Don. Let’s not forget that his crew Maybach Music Group’s album Self Made Vol. 2 is still in the top 30 on the charts. Congrats to the The Bawse (Insert Ross grunt here).
