Chart Stalker 10/21/10: The Weezy Bounce

After a run of three consecutive number one albums coming from the country genre, the streak is broken by Lil Wayne. The New Orleans rapper’s latest effort, “I Am Not a Human Being”, bounces from #16 to #1 in its third week on the chart. The reason for this jump? After two weeks as a digital exclusive, “Human” was officially released on disc. Over 125,000 people scooped it up-not a huge number considering Weezy’s recent past, but when you take […]

Chart Chat 10/14/10: His Name Was Toby

Country music continues it’s stronghold on the Billboard album charts this week. For the third consecutive week, the genre scores a chart-topping debut. This week’s chart-topper is the latest record from Toby Keith. Everyone’s favorite Dixie Chick-basher scores the #1 album with “Bullets in the Gun”. Unfortunately, it also starts with what’s probably the lowest total for a chart-topper in October EVER, scanning just under 71,000 units. Nevertheless, Toby follows Kenny Chesney (now #2) and Zac Brown Band (#5) to […]

New Release Report 9/28/10: Walking Down “Lonely Avenue” with Ben Folds

When I saw Ben Folds in concert earlier this year, he noted that the album he’d been working on with British author Nick Hornby had been completed, and I was super intrigued. I’m a pretty major Folds fan, and “High Fidelity” has long been on the list of my favorite books and films (and I also picked up “Long Way Down” over the summer…it was a great read). The one song that Folds played from the collaboration that night was […]
