WEEK IN PREVIEW:
LLOYD BANKS’ HOUR EXTENDED

G Unit Rapper Still on Top; Angie Stone to Be Highest Debut
We’ve got to teller like it is: G Unit/Interscope’s Lloyd Banks will be #1 on this week’s album chart, notching a second week on top, if the early tally of retail reports is any indication, which it usually is.

Banks’ The Hunger for More will likely come in at around 200k for its second week, giving it a solid lead over Usher, Brandy, Lil’ Wayne and the rest.

Angie Stone’s Stone Love (J/RMG), meanwhile, continues to look like it will have moved 50k or more for the week by the time the counting's done, giving it top-debut honors and likely placing it in the Top 20.

Albums of note hitting the street this week are: Hollywood’s Cinderella Story soundtrack (featuring Hillary Duff), expected to move 180-200k; Warner Bros.Metallica (EP), which should see 100-150k first week; Geffen’s The Roots, expected to do 100k; and RCA Nashville’s Jimmy Buffet, whose parrot-head posse should snap up around 100k in the first week.
