Despite a 72 percent drop in sales from last week, The Jonas Brothers still managed to remain on top of The Billboard Top 10 for a second week in a row, having sold 147,000 copies of their new album “A Little Bit Longer.”
Last week, the album sold 525,000 copies, becoming the third-best debut of the year.
The second place in the top is occupied by Kid Rock, who sold 101,000 copies of “Rock and Roll Jesus.”
Rock band Staind had the best debut of the week, selling 92,000 copies of “The Illusion of Progress” and occupying the third place in the top. Their last studio album sold twice as many copies, 185,000, on its debut week.
Ice Cube’s "Raw Footage" debuted at No.5 with 70,000 copies, which is less than half the number of copies its previous album sold two years ago.
The soundtrack from “Mamma Mia!” slid from the second spot to the fourth one, with 87,000 copies sold.
Another new release that managed to enter the chart’s top ten is the self-titled album of Shwayze, who sold 46,600 copies of their debut album and occupied the tenth position.
Miley Cyrus’ “Breakout” fell two places to No.6, with 61,600 sold, while Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter III drops one spot to No.7, selling 56,800 copies.
Wayne’s hit album is followed by Sugarland’s “Love on the Inside,” which sold 56,300 copies.
And, at No.9, we hear the Jonas Brothers again, as we find the soundtrack to “Camp Rock,” which includes several songs by the teen trio (sales of 47,200 ).
The soundtrack to “Cheetah Girls: One World” enters next week’s chart at No.13, with sales reported at 34,300.
