1. Jack White – Blunderbuss – 137,554 – I knew this was going to land somewhere near the top of the charts when I saw a tweet saying Jay-Z was at a recent show. Turns out, it’s at the very top.

2. Adele – 21 – 83,917 – Adele’s slacking. She’s only pushing a hair above 80K now? What a loser. In all seriousness though, guess who’s on “diamond watch”? She’s only 1.1M away.

8. Nicki Minaj – Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded – 32,432 – I have no problem admitting 2 Chainz’s verse on “Beez In The Trap” is my guilty pleasure. “NICKI, NICKI, NICKI…”

17. Future – Pluto – 17,293 – Here’s a little known fact about Future. He can actually rap when he feels like showing it. That said, 98% of people won’t believe you when you tell them that. He does have ties with the legendary Dungeon Family, for the record. 

23. Maroon 5 – Hands All Over – 15,291 – This has nothing to do with the now platinum album you see here. But Songs About Jane is one of the best albums I’ve ever heard in my life.

32. Drake – Take Care – 11,939 – Something tells me we’re going to be hearing a lot from this guy over the next few weeks. As a fan of his music, HYFR.

64. SWV – I Missed Us – 6,566 – You know, I heard their song on the radio the other day and it wasn’t bad at all.

67. Young Jeezy – TM103 – 6,402 –  Hey, a birdie in my window (ok, Twitter) told me The Real is Back 3 is on the way.

75. Bruno Mars – Doo Woops & Hooligans – 5,703 – Is it me or has this guy been quiet as a church mouse lately?

119. Wiz Khalifa – Rolling Papers – 3,426 – I wonder who these 3,000 people are. In related news, Taylor Allderdice is still in rotation.
