INFORMATION on PREVIOUS WEEK'S ALBUM PLACINGS on the BILLBOARD 200

ALICIA KEYS-- "The Element of Freedom"
DROPPED from #2 to #4

ROBIN THICKE-- "Sex Therapy..."
DROPPED from #9 to #30

Susan Boyle is about to hit triple-platinum status with her album...and it's seriously blocking anyone from having the #1 spot. Same thing happened to MJB that occurred with Alicia Keys...plenty in sales...but not enough to secure the top spot.

YOUNG MONEY debuts in the Top Ten...this really doesn't impress me...but it does make me happy when I think of Drake...I'm just saying.

EMINEM jumps from #133 to #11, thanks to his "Refill..." re-release...but I honestly don't think this album is gonna stay in the Top Twenty for that much longer.

ALICIA KEYS drops only two spots while ROBIN THICKE remains in the Top Thirty...

CHECK HERE NEXT WEEK on THURSDAY, JANUARY 7th, 2010 to find out how MARY J BLIGE, YOUNG MONEY, and EMINEM do on Rise and Fall portion of this blog!
