Maxwell lands the top spot on the Billboard 200 album chart this week with BLACKsummers'night. The Black-Eyed Peas' "I Gotta Feeling" continues its own streak atop the Hot 100 singles chart this week, while Mariah Carey debuts big @ #11 with "Obsessed," which makes her just the eighth female artist in history to have at least 40 entries on the chart! It's also worth mentioning that Britney Spears' "Radar" has debuted at #35 on the Mainstream Top 40 chart this week, giving her her 21st entry on the chart, the most on any artist since 2000. Also, Michael Jackson continues to reign the other Billboard charts & has outdone himself yet again. Michael sold 1.1 million albums this week, a jump of 37% even over last week, apparently because of his memorial coverage. His Number Ones album is the top-seller for the third week in a row with 349,000 copies sold (a 3% increase) & leads the way for a Jackson-related top 12 on this week's Top Pop Catalog Albums chart. The King of Pop cannot be stopped!
