Dr. Dre remains the highest selling Hip Hop album on the Billboard Top 200. N.W.A remains highly ranked at the #9 spot, but Eazy-E and Ice Cube’s solo projects saw significant decrease from last week’s sales. Future drops out of the top 10 for the first time in Dirty Sprite 2‘s sixth week on the chart.  Meek Mill’s Dreams Worth More Than Money falls out of the top 20 overall sales for the first time since its debut.

Dr. Dre Still At #3

Dr. Dre’s Compton: A Soundtrack by Dr. Dre remains at the #3 spot for the second straight week. The album’s physical copy became available August 21 and this week saw more than 10,000 more albums sold than last week when the project was still only available on Apple Music. The rapper-producers other two solo albums, 2001 and The Chronic charted at #70 and #73 respectively.
