Break out the pepper spray! Everybody get some in the face! Hey, wait a minute—that’s no way to celebrate! Well, the superstar rapper and the superstar R&B crooner may have had their final breakup on the road over the weekend, with Kelly ending up on the wrong end of a can of thug-be-gone (see Rumor Mill), but they’ll still have the top album in the country this week. Come on, guys!
The next-highest debuts on this week’s chart are likely to be Trick Daddy’s Thug Matrimony: Married to the Streets (Slip-N-Slide/Atlantic) and Simple Plan’s Still Not Getting Any (Lava/Atlantic), the latter falling surprisingly short of expectations.
Big albums hitting the street tomorrow include Now 17 (Capitol), which early guessers have pegged at 350k or so, and A Perfect Circle’s Emotive (Virgin), expected to have a first week of around 100k-120k.SONG REVENUE: CALM BEFORE THE STORM
