Although Country sensation Rascal Flatts and Pop princess Hannah Montana took the #1 and #2 respectively, L.O.X./D-Block member Jadakiss [click to read] impressed many, with New York Hip Hop's best debut week in close to a year. With lukewarm reviews, The Last Kiss [click to read], Jada's Def Jam debut, beat fellow New York major label rapper MIMS' debut week by over 120,000 units.

Hip Hop favorite Prince stayed in the Top 10 for week two, with his Target-exclusive three-album set, LOtUSFLOW3R independent project. Keri Hilson's In A Perfect World... [click to read] remained in the Top 15 for a third week, maintaining her status as Interscope's present R&B flagship artist, distinguishing herself against Keyshia Cole. Flo Rida's R.O.O.T.S. [click tp read] gained some second week momentum for the Atlantic Records artist, placing him ahead of UGK, despite considerably lower units scanned last week.

UGK [click to read] did fall over 50,000 units from the previous week with UGK 4 Life [click to read]. Pimp C's posthumous group album with Bun B still continues to defy expectations, as the group's nearly 20 year tenure with Jive Records comes to its final release.
