This Week’s Hip Hop Album Sales

Justin Timberlake continues to sit alone at the top with his new album, The 20/20 Experience. The project was the top selling album for an impressive third week in a row. Surprisingly, the next highest selling R&B or hip hop album of the week wasn’t Lil Wayne – instead it was Odd Future front man, Tyler, The Creator.

Tyler’s album, Wolf, features appearances by Pharrell, Erykah Badu, Casey Veggies and Frank Ocean. The new project trumps Tyler’s previous release, Goblin, which was released in 2011.
