![]() Next week, keep a lookout for strong-selling new releases from rock act Live, redneck rapper Bubba Sparxxx, R&B singers Gerald Levert and Macy Gray, and songwriter-tortured soul Tori Amos. Smith at 20, “Face 2 Face” (Arista) from producer-songwriter Kenneth “Babyface” Edmunds, “God Hates Us All” (American) from thrash pioneers Slayer at 28, “Rockin’ the Suburbs” (Epic) by Ben Folds at 42 and finally “Funk Odyssey” (Epic) from Jamiroquai at 44. “Songs” has scanned more than 2.3 million units to date.Īlso making respectable bows on the latest chart were “Worship” (Zomba) from gospel crooner Michael W. One exception to that trend was the indefatigable R&B diva Alicia Keys, whose J Records release “Songs in A Minor” fell just one spot to three, with sales of 161,000 albums. 11, as sales fell by more than half from its debut week to 99,000. The onslaught of new releases pushed most of last week’s top performers further down the ranks: For example, “Toxicity” (Columbia) from System of a Down, slipped from No. Release of both the record and the film was postponed this summer following Carey’s hospitalization for a mental and physical breakdown. Id also heavily recommend In My Lifetime Vol. (aka Payable on Death), at sixth.Ĭoming in just behind the San Diego metalers at seventh was Mariah Carey with the long-delayed soundtrack to her new film “Glitter.” The LP - Carey’s first to be released on Virgin Records, following her split with Sony - sold 116,000 copies. DEFINITELY listen to The Black Album, The Blueprint, and Reasonable Doubt. The album, which opened at fifth, showed that Dylan’s spare, poignant style continues to resonate with music fans after four decades.Īlso high on the debut list were “Ghetto Fabolous” (Elektra), by rapper Fabolous, at four, and “Satellite” (Atlantic), from alt-metal outfit P.O.D. Album starts at 93BPM, ends at 81BPM (-12), with tempos within the 81-179BPM range. The first was shock-metal act Slipknot, which opened in third place earlier this month with “Iowa,” selling nearly 255,000 records.Īrchetypal singer-songwriter Bob Dylan made a formidable showing this week with “Love & Theft” (Columbia). This album has an average beat per minute of 96 BPM (slowest/fastest tempos: 81/179 BPM). “Silver Side Up” marks IDJ’s second major success through its joint venture with hard-rock indie Roadrunner. Island/Def Jam’s chart dominance continued in the latest session with Nickelback’s “Silver Side Up,” which came in at No.
