Wale held down the number 2 spot with his album “The Gifted”, which sold approximately 58,000 in it’s second week.
In other chart news, while Jay-Z’s “Magna Carta Holy Grail” didn’t land on the charts this week do to the tracking methods of Nielsen, his “The Black Album” re entered the Top 200 almost a decade after being released.
