[Keelzit]

That's a very nice debut for BEP! Even with how huge BBP has been the album still sold decently in its 1st week all things considered.

[HEADOFTHEPACK]

Oh that's much better than what was predicted. Good news.

[halo19]

Amazing for Sonic Youth. :o Better than what HITS listed, as well. They're pretty erratic chart-wise. (Is this their finest showing? I know previously it was Dirty or Experimental).

[thehellion]

Fantastic news for Sonic Youth. That's the highest charting album they've ever had in the US and the album had a bigger first week then their previous album did too. Leaving Geffen for Matador was obviously a good move. It's a very good album too. Highly recommended.

Black Eyed Peas Score First No. 1 Album
June 17, 2009

Editor: Keith Caulfield; Contributors: Anthony Colombo, Gary Trust, Alex Vitoulis; Editorial Director: Silvio Pietroluongo

The Black Eyed Peas go "Boom Boom Pow!" on the Billboard 200 chart, netting its first No. 1 album as "The E.N.D." bows atop the list with 304,000 ... Aventura scores a record high week with its new set "The Last," starting at No. 5, Mos Def scores his second top 10 album and former Pretty Ricky member Pleasure P takes his solo debut album "The Introduction of Marcus Cooper" straight in at No. 10 ... In Progress Reports, we've got updates on Silversun Pickups historic feat on the Alternative radio airplay chart, the developing chart career of singer/songwriter Matt Wertz and the 25th top 10 Dance Club hit for Pet Shop Boys.

FLASH POINTS

• Black Eyed Peas' "The E.N.D." bows at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, selling 304,000 -- the hip-pop act's best sales week ever. It's also the first No. 1 album for the group, which had previously gone as high as No. 2. Its last set, 2005's "Monkey Business," bowed in the runner-up slot with a then-best 291,000. It had the unfortunate luck to come out the same week as Coldplay's "X&Y," which kept the Peas' at bay when it started at No. 1 with 737,000.

• Believe it or not, "The E.N.D." is only the second top 10 album for the Peas. While "Monkey" peaked at No. 2, its first two releases -- 1998's "Behind the Front" and 2000's "Bridging the Gap" -- both missed the top 50. It wasn't until the group recruited Fergie for "Elephunk" in 2003 did the group break through big time. That album, powered by three top 40 Hot 100 singles (including "Where Is The Love?"), peaked at No. 14 and spent 106 weeks on the chart.

• It was hard not to know that the Black Eyed Peas had a new album last week, thanks to heavy promotion from Target. The retailer carried an exclusive version of the album that featured additional tracks and flooded the airwaves with a commercial touting the new set.

• In non-Peas news this week, Latin quartet Aventura enters the Billboard 200 at No. 5 with its "Last" album, shifting 47,000 -- the act's best sales week ever. The effort arrives at No. 1 on the Top Latin Albums chart, its first chart-topper. The group had charted three previous top five sets ... Mos Def's newest, "Ecstatic," starts at No. 9 with 39,000 -- his second top 10 set ... Former Pretty Ricky member Pleasure P strikes out on his own with his solo debut, "The Introduction of Marcus Cooper," entering at No. 10 with just under 39,000. Over on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, the album bows at No. 2 behind Black Eyed Peas.


• Last week's No. 1, Dave Matthews Band's "Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King," slips to No. 2 in its second week with 128,000 (down 70%). Eminem's "Relapse" falls one position to No. 3 with 87,000 (down 38%) while super group Chickenfoot posts a 53% gain at No. 4, shifting 79,000 copies. The album debuted last week with 52,000 with just three days of sales, as it was released early on Friday, June 5. Lady GaGa's "The Fame" climbs two slots to No. 6 with 47,000 (up less than 1%) while the "Hannah Montana" movie soundtrack slips from No. 6 to No. 7 with 46,000 (down 8%). Finally, Green Day's "21st Century Breakdown" drops three rungs to No. 8 with 41,000 (down 21%).

MARKET WATCH

• Album units, current chart week: 6.34 million units
• DOWN 0.6% from last week's charts: 6.39 million units
• DOWN 31.7% from same week, 2008: 9.29 million units
• This week: the top two albums each sell more than 100,000 copies.
• This week last year on The Billboard 200: Lil Wayne notched the biggest sales week of the year for an album when his "Tha Carter III" bowed with 1,006,000. Plies' "Definition of Real" arrived in second place with 215,000.

PROGRESS REPORTS

• Dangerbird Records' Silversun Pickups become the first independently distributed act in more than a decade to reach the top of the Alternative radio airplay chart as "Panic Switch" climbs 3-1. This marks only the third time that an independently distributed act has reached No. 1 and the first since then-Tommy Boy artist Everlast began a nine-week reign with "What It's Like" on the Dec. 26, 1998, chart. One needs to go back to July 1994 to find the last (and only other) independently distributed group to hit the top spot. The Offspring's "Come Out and Play (Keep 'Em Separated)" spent a pair of frames atop the list in 1994 when the band was still signed to indie-distributed Epitaph.

• Singer Matt Wertz went from playing high school summer camps in the early 2000s to releasing his major label debut album on Universal Republic last year. Now, his first radio hit, "Everything's Right," is climbing the charts, debuting at No. 40 on the Adult Top 40 tally. This album, "Under Summer Sun," has shifted 12,000 since it was released last September.

• On the Hot Dance Club chart, Pet Shop Boys net its 25th top 10 single as "Love Etc." climbs 13-9 in its fifth chart week. The duo now holds the title of the third-most top 10s on the chart. Only Madonna (with 52) and Janet Jackson (31) are ahead ... Chart watchers may note that this is the third top 10 for the Boys to feature the word "Love" in the title. "Love Comes Quickly"/"That's My Impression" was a No. 10 double-sided hit in 1986 and "Break 4 Love" (credited to Peter Rauhofer + Pet Shop Boys = The Collaboration) went to No. 1 in 2001.

A LOOK AHEAD

• Among the albums released this week, due on next week's charts: Jonas Brothers' "Lines, Vines and Trying Times," Michael Buble's "Michael Buble Meets Madison Square Garden," Spinal Tap's "Back From the Dead," the cast recording of "Chess In Concert" (featuring Josh Groban and Idina Menzel), Laura Izibor's "Let the Truth Be Told" and Rhonda Vincent's "Destination Life."

• Next week's Billboard 200 competes with the same week in 2008 when: Coldplay bowed atop the list with "Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends" with 721,000. The previous week's topper, Lil Wayne's "Tha Carter III," shifted to the No. 2 slot with 309,000. The soundtrack to Disney Channel's "Camp Rock" started at No. 3 with 188,000.

Black Eyed Peas 'E.N.D.' Up At No. 1 On Billboard 200

June 17, 2009

by Keith Caulfield, L.A.

Black Eyed Peas' "The E.N.D." bows at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, selling 304,000 -- the hip-pop act's best sales week ever. It's also the first No. 1 album for the group, which had previously gone as high as No. 2. Its last set, 2005's "Monkey Business," bowed in the runner-up slot with a then-best 291,000. It had the unfortunate luck to come out the same week as Coldplay's "X&Y," which kept the Peas' at bay when it started at No. 1 with 737,000.

Believe it or not, "The E.N.D." is only the second top 10 album for the Peas. While "Monkey" peaked at No. 2, its first two releases -- 1998's "Behind the Front" and 2000's "Bridging the Gap" -- both missed the top 50. It wasn't until the group recruited Fergie for "Elephunk" in 2003 did the group break through big time. That album, powered by three top 40 Hot 100 singles (including "Where Is The Love?"), peaked at No. 14 and spent 106 weeks on the chart.

It was hard not to know that the Black Eyed Peas had a new album last week, thanks to heavy promotion from Target. The retailer carried an exclusive version of the album that featured additional tracks and flooded the airwaves with a commercial touting the new set.

In non-Peas news this week, Latin quartet Aventura enters the Billboard 200 at No. 5 with its "Last" album, shifting 47,000 -- the act's best sales week ever. The effort arrives at No. 1 on the Top Latin Albums chart, its first chart-topper. The group had charted three previous top five sets. Mos Def's newest, "Ecstatic," starts at No. 9 with 39,000 -- his second top 10 set. Former Pretty Ricky member Pleasure P strikes out on his own with his solo debut, "The Introduction of Marcus Cooper," entering at No. 10 with just under 39,000. Over on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, the album bows at No. 2 behind Black Eyed Peas.

Last week's No. 1, Dave Matthews Band's "Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King," slips to No. 2 in its second week with 128,000 (down 70%). Eminem's "Relapse" falls one position to No. 3 with 87,000 (down 38%) while super group Chickenfoot posts a 53% gain at No. 4, shifting 79,000 copies. The album debuted last week with 52,000 with just three days of sales, as it was released early on Friday, June 5. Lady GaGa's "The Fame" climbs two slots to No. 6 with 47,000 (up less than 1%) while the "Hannah Montana" movie soundtrack slips from No. 6 to No. 7 with 46,000 (down 8%). Finally, Green Day's "21st Century Breakdown" drops three rungs to No. 8 with 41,000 (down 21%).

Overall album sales in this past chart week (ending June 14) totaled 6.34 million units, down 0.6% compared to the sum last week (6.39 million) and down 31.7% compared to the same sales week of 2008 (9.29 million). (Why down so much? It's partly because Lil Wayne notched the biggest sales week of 2008 for an album when his "Tha Carter III" bowed with 1,006,000.)

Year to date album sales stand at 161.4 million, down 14% compared to the same total at this point last year (188.6 million).

[Young Money]

Hopefully Eminem, DMB, GaGa and Green Day hang around in the top 10.

Thanks for bringing this over, malwaredie! It's nice to see it so early.

omg Carrie is outselling Kelly without a Hot 100 top 20 single

"I Told You So" was a top 20 single.

Or, if you're talking about the current top 20, this observation is rather pointless, since both albums are below the top 50, and, at max, 20 albums can have singles currently in the top 20 of the Hot 100, so the math would say that many albums without top 20 singles are outselling both of them. :o

[tsw2008]

Thanks !

wonder if she will get dropped.

[Osaka Sun]

6 LADY GAGA FAME 46,773 0 46,753 1,041,179

How much do you think she'll sell when it's all over?

[shaq91]

Go BEP!!! WOW @ GAGA!!! I think she'll probably be like 2x platinum, maybe 3x!

[busyboy]

What the hell happened to Prince??!!

131 PRINCE LOTUS FLOW3R 3,882 -61 9,915 355,098

[musicjunky318]

Wow, big drop.

[HolidayGuy]

Perhaps Target stopped featuring Prince in its circular? Or, maybe the price increased?

I overlooked Vanessa Williams' debut last week (not that it was spectacular).

[areyoureadytojump]

Prince was not in the Target circular this week.

[HolidayGuy]

^Or, last week- I guess. :)

Over 2 Million is my guess.

[cartman2002]

This week the top 48 albums sold more than 10,000 copies this week and it took 2,600 copies to make the BB200 this week which is an improvement from last week's chart.

[Mikal]

Who'd have thought 'My December' would outsell 'All I Ever Wanted' LOL

[Illusions]

MD WON'T outsell AIEW. AIEW only has 200,000+ more to go to outsell MD and it's only been out 14 weeks!

[Keelzit]

I love how you say ''only''. At this rate the best we can hope is that the ''only 200k'' becomes an ''only 100k''.

it will stuck pretty soon at like 1.8m it will end with 2x platinum, i think x mas 2009 will safe this album and probably push soundscan sales to 2 million..

But please consider she already had 2 mega hits and the album has only sold 1m to date.. she needs to stay in public interest to keep on selling.

MD sold 800,000+ with one single to date.

AIEW has sold 600,000+ with two singles in 14 weeks! We can safely say that Kelly will pass MD album sells and will go platium!
