YOUR WEAKEND TOP 10 PREVIEW: With an expected tally of 190-200k, the debuting Nas (Def Jam/Columbia) will unseat fellow MC Lil Wayne (Cash Money/Universal Motown), who’s spent four weeks total at #1, but he’s looking good for #2 with a number in the 105-110k range. Former chart-topper Coldplay (Capitol) is also hanging around the chart’s upper reaches with a projected 85-90, as is Camp Rock (Disney), right behind at 80-85k. The resurging Kid Rock (Atlantic) will probably round out the Top 5 with 70-75k. The rest of the Top 10 will be a traffic jam involving Mamma Mia! (Decca) and the debuting John Mellencamp (Hear Music), both looking 50-55k-ish; as three more bows—David Banner (SRC/Universal Motown), O.A.R. (Everfine/Atlantic) and Taylor Swift’s Wal-Mart exclusive (Big Machine)—join Capitol’s Now 28 in the 40-45k ’hood. You may now return to reading I.B. Bad’s assessments of new-look EMI and Warner Music’s latest misadventure. (7/18a)

They need to release Lost! as a single. It's the best song on the album.

I agree on both counts. ^_^

I'm thinking 'Lost!' is the obvious choice for the 3rd single.

[madonnafan18]

Wow @ Kid Rock!

[music135]

Rihanna will fall a few spaces, but I think her sales will only decrease a little bit, I'm hoping for another week of at least 40,000 Leona's still doing well, and Natasha climbs!

[warriorsoul]

no top 200 from last week yet?
anyways Duffy is doing great!!

[LOL!]

Goo Leona, still top twenty
I think this will deffo sell 1million soon and hopefully 'Better In Time' will start to help

Rihanna is SO selling over 50k again next with the help of the Disturbia video release.

It was, and it was #14 on the Billboard 200, it looks like her new wal-mart exclusive is causing a large drop in the albums sales Oh well, I hope Rihanna ends up in the top 10

[LOL!]

Oooh, thanks for clearing that up
