Eminem continues to dominate the charts with 3 entries in the Top 200. He failed to regain the top spot with releases from Disturbed and Now 35 taking the top spots. But Mr. Mathers still holds down the 3, 87, and 137 spots. While Usher lost ground on both his entries, Drake moved up a couple spots to 16.

Kill Devil Hills, the acclaimed collaboration between DJ Muggs and Ill Bill failed to crack the Top 200. Tune in next week to see how releases from Young Buck, Dorrough and Q-Unique perform.
meh. this list should be reading j. cole, laws, lupe fiasco, joe budden, joell ortiz, etc.
none of their albums came out yet wat u talkin bout
True for J. Cole and Joell Ortiz 😉
Eminem, Drake, Rick Ross all the fake rappers sell, Teflon Don Gold tho
Damn.. Mike P did alright considering I haven’t seen/heard any type of promotion other than his self promotion online.
It’s kinda of stupid how DX keeps changing the site so much. What they had going was good as it was. I can support change but if the change makes it worst from wha it already was they need to stop. You don’t see Allhiphop.com changing there scenery every month. I can’t even read the numbers that well with out sqinting atleast put some comas on there where they need to be.
I think this version of their site is the cleanest yet, and I’ve been coming here for quite some time. Just my opinion.
get some fuckin glasses
When it’s all said and done eminem going triple platinum+, Drake 1.5 million, Usher 1.5 million. Ross gold maybe. Big Boi brass. Fat joe glue.lol Cuz that nigga stuck. Even when he makes a good album for once.
Did this nigga say dude album went glue
i think i found the dudes page that everyone was saying lil wayne is about to sign. He’s on stage with lil wayne be advertised in the background and then dj busy bee was co signing him…I can’t hate the kids nice. http://www.youtube.com/user/hiphopsbaby1
It kills me to see people like Big Boi, Roots, Nas & D Marley albums selling 100-200k when they are brilliant albums, and then there are other sellouts with garbage cd’s doing massive #’s. Marketing & promotion is all it is, I wish it was fair. I can’t get a hard copy of The Darkside Vol.1 at the store, but Kelis’ shit album has got a promo right there in the hip hop section in between all the Eminem & Rihanna propaganda. Anyways….this is what the industry has come to i guess.
I hope Buck go hard this week.
If you think jat joe is on eminem’s level you’re out of you’re fucking mind. “real hip-hop head” has become another way of saying “hater”. It’s obvious that the roots,nas, and big boi don’t care about sales so you shouldn’t either. I love mf doom, roots, and nas too, but god damn, be happy that hip hop is topping the charts period and stfu. I mean jesus this hater shit is getting annoying.
True …
Jesus Javito, quit hatin on me! You hate so much, damn. When did I ever say I’m a “real hip-hop head”? You making shit up to hate about. That’s some hatin-ass hate righ there.
My point was a lot of great music goes unpromoted.

Fuck Me!!!! Big Boi should be sellein way more than this!!! I mean damn even without all the promo his ass should have went gold by now. On the other hand I guess this shows you music with skill low numbers music that suck big stacks. If Big Boi cant get to 200 im going to kill someone lol!!
Long live DISTURBED
Fuck Dicksturbed Fuck screamo lol
Hahahaha u shop at hot topic dont u??
Damn disturbed and all shitty nu metal
not scream(no offense to that guy who called disturbed screamo,they arent)
disturbed is a great rock/ metal band. screamo is emo and that they are not. have some diversity in your music, if you only like one genre, i’m sorry for you. open your mind and ears. there is a lot of great music out there.
Why Rick Ross hasn’t released another single is mind boggling to me? SMH
why do you have your picture up thats mind boggling
I just need to know if you picked up that ROOTS CD yet
Why you like Rick Ross is mind boggling
khordkutta – nah man I ain’t get a chance yet but i’ll probably get it today…john legend and roots got a cd coming soon right?
Ross flopped that’s why. With all them features on the album his budget is spent!! DefJam can’t afford to put more money into the project. They’ll never recoup. They’re just gonna let it ride out from here.
Em will be triple plat b4 the end of the year.
Thank you for putting the comas in between the numbers HiphopDx. Apparently you were listening to me. It just looks tacky with no comas. Anyways eminem triple plat by the end of the year. he’ll always go multi platinum even when his music isn’t even is at it’s best.
You cant be mad at Em.. Wait..YEs you can cause his numbers get inflated..but Still you cant be mad cause he does go Hard and derserves what he gets.
But I wish everybody gets what they derserve.
Nas and Jr. Gong
Big Boi
The Roots
Bun B
Came out with good albums and they wont make Drakes number any time soon. They derserve Gold or Higher.
It bothers me that certain types of music make it to the forefront and others dont.
It makes me ask why?
Thats why I wanna be able to put out music independtly. and Change the system.

Bingo! Glad to hear those comments. Somebody else gets it.

True…Distant Relatives has moved from 125 to 114 the week of 8/29/10 and it was not posted that week as well. Distant Relatives is truly showing steam!

KRS-One and True Master “Meta-Historical” is an awesome album. The teacher is back on his game on this one! It is really good event the skits are really good! BEATS ARE BANGING and the lyrics are so inspiring and real.
jeremih ft 50 cent,down on me that shit is straight fire ,fifty proved once again that whichever beat he’s on ,he can crack that shit up.shit is good.check it out.
Ross is wacc…EM does it again..#1 biacht
is it me or did these mutha fuckas just put ludacris back on the board…okay now we really know hip hop is dead now..his album came out a year ago..ha ha
People on this site are always using sales as a way of saying an artist has sold out or real hip hop isn’t selling and only commercial rappers can sell records… But me I just gotta give props to any rapper that is selling records cuz honestly u have to sell records to keep the genre alive…. and damn Eminem is about to hit the 100,000,000 mark…. but after him who will we have?? The next closest is the late great 2pac! Hopefully we get a new young mc to come through and dominate record sales and media so worlds passion for rap can continue!! But noone has been able to bring the world that raw entertainment that pac and em did…..everyone is too focused on clothes and nice cars and hair styles….
I guess you must mean 100,000,000 million mark with his career sales world wide right? Yeah and your right pac was the highest selling rapper until eminem came around. But only time will tell if a rapper of em and pacs caliber would arive. It definitely as hell isn’t drake and/or lil wayne. But I think eminem will have to drop one more album to hit the 100 million mark. So far I think he’s in the mid to high 80’s(million) in record sales.
Eminem: I jus like to thank all my white fans, cause without you i be nothing..i like the way all of you get on hiphopsites like this one and make me look good by your audacious comments that hides my real lyrical ability and my trash cd’s that have yet to be acclaimed classics even though i sold the most units this year, so thank you once again. Kim is a bitch still, my moms iz gay and fuck all the pop singers accept for Rihanna, thank you for the hit, and thats all shout out to 50 cent for being irrelevant..
commercial rappers are good for hip hop, fyi. it brings a huge amount of fans, who hopefully dig a little bit deeper than em/wayne. either way, ive liked having em as raps front runner instead of wayne/drake. its not biggie/pac, but its better than the other options.
