Lupe Fiasco Claims No. 1 Due To SoundScan Foul Up

Posted by admin - Filed under: Hip-hop charts, Hiphop, hiphop articles - (Saturday September 30, 2006 at 1:56 am)

Lupe FiascoFinally Lupe Fiasco, whose debut seems to be living up to his last name, might catch a break. After some sinister force leaked his album not once but twice, some dark presence caused record sales authority, SoundScan, to count wrong and mess up Billboard’s weekly charts.

Billboard claims the top 6 albums on the Billboard 200 (including Justin Timberlake’s at No. 1) remain the same, but the majority of everything else might shift.

“Actually, this week’s Billboards numbers are off because of an error!!!” Fiasco said on a forum board, according to Soundslam. “Best Buy hadn’t turned in their sales… I must remind I was the number #1 seller at Best Buy this week. The numbers without Best Buy stand at 57,000…the new numbers will be out this Friday after they turn in… hahahahaha… GOD IS GREAT!!!!”

If this is the case, his set, Lupe Fiasco’s Food & Liquor, may very well end up No. 1 on the Top Rap Albums Chart and displace Chingy’s Hoodstar, but as of posting time the Billboard charts remain unchanged.
