Usher's 2004 album Confessions tops the 10 million mark in U.S. sales this week. It's only the 19th album to reach that milestone since Nielsen SoundScan began tracking sales for Billboard in 1991. Confessions is the best-selling R&B album in this period (excluding hip hop). Here's the rest of the top five among R&B albums: Boyz II Men's II (8,586,000), TLC's CrazySexyCool (7,342,000), Janet Jackson's janet. (7,035,000) and Boyz II Men's Cooleyhighharmony (6,971,000). (The Fine Print: I'm classifying Nelly's Country Grammar, 50 Cent's Get Rich Or Die Tryin', Dr. Dre's 2001 and Lauryn Hill's The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill as hip-hop. I'm classifying Whitney Houston's The Bodyguard soundtrack and Mariah Carey's Daydream and Music Box as pop.)
