I guess Black Milk’s Album of the Year fell out of the top 200 after just a week.  Damn shame seeing as how he has one of the best albums of the year.  Eminem looks like he will definitely hit triple platinum this year.  I wonder what Lil Weezy’s new(WACK) album, I Am Not A Human Being will sell.  I’m sure he will sell over 100k maybe 200.

Several new releases hit the charts last week but only one managed to make a big splash.  Trey Songz new album, Passion Pain and Pleasure sold 240K in its first week and is sitting at number 2 on the charts.  Eminem is right behind him with 89K sold this week.  The other usual suspects are still sitting in the 15-30 range.  Check it out

Black Milk’s Album of the Year sold 3,700 in its first week while Bilal did 4,800.  I think those both go as no surprise though.  Go buy Black Milk’s album and support one of the best albums of the year.  John Legend and The Roots, Wake Up dropped yesterday and it is pretty dope as well.  Until next week.

Kanye West I'm Good

Today is a special day.  Not only is it (Fly) Friday but I revisited one of my favorite mixtapes of all time, Kanye West’s I’m Good.  This was back when people thought Kanye was “making a compilation but he was really making himself they competation(sp).”  I first heard I’m good back in the summer of 03 I think it was, after my freshman year in college and bumped it that whole summer.  I rememeber not only being impressed by the beats(now listening some are pretty wack) but also by Kanye’s abilities on the mic.  He wasn’t the best lyricist but he was funny and said some shit I had never heard before.  One of my favorite lines, “my diamonds yellow like a smoker tooth.”  Not even that hot just funny and stupid.  So this morning when I was listening, I remember falling in love with John Legend’s joint on there, I used to love you, and planned on that being the song of the day until I heard Two Words, Philly N@$#@!, Drop Dead Gorgeous and my personal favorite, Half Price.  So to pay tribute to one of my favorite artists(used to be), Kanye West and this BEAUTIFUL (Fly) Friday in Chicago, today I’m gonna give you the whole mixtape,  Kanye West I’m Good.  Here are a few songs as well as the link for the whole album.  Peep the track list, listen and enjoy.
