Big ups to Busta Rhymes for The Big Bang taking the top spot on not only the Billboard 200 albums chart but also on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and Top Rap Albums charts. SoundScan figures hit 209,000 units moved the first week and that's cause for congratulation.

1. Busta Rhymes - The Big Bang
2. The Dixie Chicks - Taking the Long Way
3. AFI - Decemberunderground
4. Soundtrack - High School Musical
5. Three Days Grace - One - X
6. Soundtrack - Cars
7. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Stadium Arcadium
8. Rascal Flatts - Me and My Gang
9. Yung Joc - New Joc City
10. Ice Cube - Laugh Now, Cry Later

Not surprisingly, sales of cds overall continue to slip:
At 10.4 million units, overall CD sales were up 9% from the previous week and down 13% compared to the same week a year ago. Sales for 2006 are down 4% compared to 2005 at 251.6 million units.
