[JC.]

Justin Bieber continues to break records on Billboard's charts, as his "Under the Mistletoe" album debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, selling 210,000 in its first week according to Nielsen SoundScan.

The collection is the first Christmas set by a male artist to debut at No. 1 in the 55-year history of the chart and just the eighth holiday album to hit No. 1. Susan Boyle's 2010 album "The Gift" is the only other Christmas effort to open atop the list.

Previous to Boyle, the six earlier holiday albums to top the Billboard 200 were: Josh Groban's "Noel" (1997), Kenny G's "Miracles - the Holiday Album" (1994), Mitch Miller's "Holiday Sing Along With Mitch" (1962) and "Christmas Sing-Along With Mitch" (1958), Bing Crosby's "Merry Christmas" (1957) and Elvis Presley's "Elvis' Christmas Album" (1957).

Further, "Mistletoe" marks the 17-year old's third No. 1 album. He is the first soloist to earn three No. 1s before their 18th birthday. Previously, he was tied with LeAnn Rimes, who notched two No. 1s in 1997 -- before she turned 16.

His first No. 1 album came on the chart dated April 10, 2010, with "My World 2.0." His second was the "Never Say Never: The Remixes" EP on March 5, 2011.

"Mistletoe" starts with Bieber's third-best sales week, after the first two frames of his last studio album, "My World 2.0." That title bowed with 283,000 and then shifted 291,000 in its second stanza.

But Bieber isn't the only news this week on the Billboard 200 -- not by a long shot. Six total debuts populate the top 10, including the entire top four. It's the first time the chart's Nos. 1-4 slots have been debuts since the Feb. 5 tally, when the Decemberists' "The King Is Dead" bowed at No. 1.

Rapper Wale arrives at No. 2 this week with his second effort, "Ambition," selling 164,000, while Miranda Lambert's "Four the Record" starts at No. 3 with 133,000. The previously mentioned Boyle begins at No. 4 with her third set, "Someone to Watch Over Me" (132,000).

For the former two acts, their latest albums bring them their best sales weeks yet and highest charting sets. Wale's last release, "Attention Deficit," spent just two weeks on the list, peaking at No. 21 with a 28,000 debut. Lambert's previous best sales start was with "Revolution's" 66,000 bow at No. 8 in 2009. Her highest charting album, until this week, was the No. 6 arrival of "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend" in 2007.

Boyle's "Someone" is her third top five set, following the No. 1 debuts of "I Dreamed a Dream" (701,000 in 2009) and "The Gift."

Rounding out the rest of the six debuts in the top 10 this week is Florence + the Machine's second album "Ceremonials" (No. 6 with 105,000) and Tyrese's latest "Open Invitation" (No. 9 with 76,000).

Florence's debut set "Lungs" climbed to a No. 14 peak in 2010 following its performance of the single "Dog Days Are Over" on the MTV Video Music Awards. Tyrese's "Invitation" brings the actor/singer back to the tally for the first time since 2006's "Alter Ego" debuted and peaked at No. 23. "Invitation" is his highest-charting album, passing up his 2001 set "2000 Watts," which topped out at No. 10.

As for the holdovers in the top 10: Adele's "21" slips out of the top four slots for the first time in its 37 week history on the list, falling 4-5 (108,000; up 1%). Coldplay's "Mylo Xyloto" tumbles 1-7 in its second week on the chart (104,000; down 76%) while Michael Buble's "Christmas" holds together slightly better in it sophomore frame, dipping 3-8 with 89,000 (down 37%). Kelly Clarkson's "Stronger" rounds out the rest of the non-debuts in the top tier, moving 2-10 with 51,000 (down 69%).

Adele still in the top 5

Florence opening up with over 100k

Wale killing it - all he needed was some urban love. I hope he goes at least gold.

[staracademy1990]

Under The Mistletoe - 210,000
Ambition - 164,000
Ceremonials - 105,000
Open Invitaion - 76,000

Great numbers
Wale went from opening with 28K with his debut to 164K with this one (outsold his debut already)
I'm very surprised with Tyrese, his single hasn't impacted much, so didn't expect 76K
Bieber killing them


Mylo Xyloto - 104,000
OUCH

Justin Bieber - Under The Mistletoe

It's the 1st Christmas set by a male artist to debut at #1 in the 55-year history of the chart and just the 8th holiday album to hit #1.

"Mistletoe" marks the 17-year old's 3rd #1 album. Bieber is the 1st soloist to earn three #1s before their 18th birthday.

Wow, im really impressed with his success.

[Peep Show]

Yess Justin another day another record

In the immortal words of Nikki Finke, “Toldja!”
That’s right, just like we said last week, Rostrum Records rapper Mac Miller’s Blue Slide Park, distributed digitally by INgrooves and physically by Fontana, will debut at #1 smack dab in the middle of Q4, with estimates of between 175-185k, which might even be conservative.

This is a triumph of social networking and good, new-fashioned viral marketing, as Malcolm McCormick, the son of a Christian architect father and Jewish mother photographer, transforms his combined 2.7 million Twitter, Facebook and MySpace followers into an impressive debut.

This is Miller’s physical full-length debut after a series of well-received digital mixtapes, an EP, On and On and On Beyond, and a smash video in “Donald Trump.”

Those figures are based on one-day sales figures from music retailers, some of whom are even holding out at brick-and-mortar outlets, though it’s looking like digital might even surpass physical on this release.

Also on tap, Chop Shop/Atlantic’s Twilight: Breaking Dawn soundtrack, which arrives before the film’s Nov. 18 release, should do between 120-130k.

Capitol/EMI’s Now 40, the latest in the compilation series, should debut in the low six figures, with a projected total of 100-110K.

Sony Music Latin star Romeo Santos’ solo debut, Formula Vol. 1, which includes cameos by Lil Wayne, Pitbull, Usher and George Lopez, will debut with between 65-75k after being #1 on iTunes Latin Music chart and #4 overall. Santos will perform the current single, “Promise,” with Usher tomorrow night on the Latin Grammy Awards.

Syco/Columbia’s Il Divo album, Wicked Game, their first since 2008’s The Promise, will bow with between 50-60k.

Reprise Chicago metal mavens Disturbed’s Asylum, their follow-up to 2008’s Indestructible, is on target for a first-week total of 35-40k

Veteran Strange Music Kansas City rapper Tech N9ne’s Welcome to Strangeland, the fourth in his “Collabos” series, was released on the hip-hop star’s 40 th birthday and is looking at between 24-27k.

Sour Mash/Mercury artist Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds debuts with 12-15k for the Oasis guitarist.

Album sales were up 10% vs. last week, up 14% vs. same week last year and up 3% year to date.

Track sales were up 4% vs. last week, up 5% vs. same week last year and up 10% year to date.

TEA (Track Equivalent Album) sales were up 8% vs. last week, up 11% vs. same week last year and up 5% year to date.

Of course, we’ve been down so long, anything seems like up to us.

Anyone saying Susan Boyle is irrelevant is delusional. 132k and a #4 debut doesn't equal irrelevant.
