PEARL’S BACK AT #1
That’s more than enough to leapfrog Jay-Z’s Roc Nation/Atlantic album, The Blueprint 3, which falls to #2, ahead of the week’s other Top 5 newcomer, Jive/JLG’s Three Days Grace, whose Life Starts Now bows at #3.
A pair of divas, one veteran and one youngster, in Arista/RMG’s Whitney Houston (#4) and Hollywood’s Miley Cyrus (#5), round out the Top 5.
DGC/Interscope L.I. punks Brand New’s Daisy (#6), Prospect Park L.A. rockers Five Finger Death Punch’s War is the Answer (#7), Columbia crooner Harry Connick Jr.’s Your Songs (#9) and Downtown Records U.K. singer/songwriter David Gray’s Draw the Line (#10) are the other Top 10 debuts, with Epic’s Michael Jackson Number Ones collection the lone holdover at #8.
Other Top 50 newcomers include Shangri-La Music all-star group Monsters of Folk (#13), Casablanca/Universal Republic’s Mika (#19), Six Steps Records Christian artist David Crowder (#22), Sony Music’s Now That What I Call Club Hits (#38) and Epic’s Sean Kingston (#42).
Atlantic’s Skillet (#34), Universal Republic’s surging Owl City (#39), Capitol Nashville’s Lady Antebellum (#41) and Darius Rucker (#49) all re-enter.
This week’s release schedule includes Island/IDJ’s Mariah Carey, Fueled by Ramen/ Atlantic’s Paramore, Columbia’s Barbra Stresiand, Virgin/EMI’s Alice In Chains, Hollywood Records’ Breaking Benjamin and Selena Gomez, Columbia Nashville’s Miranda Lambert and Interscope’s AFI.
