Rick Ross No.1 W/"Deeper Than Rap," 158K First Week Sales
Rick Ross' Deeper Than Rap becomes the No.1 album in the country this week with its 158,000 sales debut atop Nielsen Soundscan's Top 200.
The new album was able to fend off stiff competition from other debuts discs including Asher Roth and mainstays like Hannah Montana.
Rick Ross' Deeper Than Rap led the way this week landing at No. 1 with 158,000 scanned discs followed by the Hannah Montana soundtrack which landed at No. 2 with 104,300 copies and Depeche Mode's Sounds of the Universe at No. 3 with 80,100 copies. Asher Roth's Asleep in the Bread Aisle debuted at No. 5 with 62,000 copies while Chester French's Love the Future opened at No. 77 with 6,300 copies. (Sales Wrap)
Early speculation of Ross' one-day numbers showed him easily debuting atop the competition this week.
Miami rapper Rick Ross will top next week's HITS Album Sales chart, with between 150-160k in sales for his third album, Deeper Than Rap, and first for his new Maybach Music Group through Def Jam after a pair for Slip-N-Slide. His last, the gold-certified Trilla, now over 700k and his 2006 debut, Port of Miami, both debuted at #1. (Hits Daily Double)
Entertainers voiced their opinion upon the project's release including Kanye West who displayed his approval of Ross' highly anticipated release.
"Rick's album is the sh*t!!!!," Ye wrote in his daily blog. "He made an album I can play in my apartment which is the highest honor I can give any piece of music. TV On The Radio, Pink Floyd and the new Rick Ross album!" (Kanye's Blog)
Def Jam labelmate Fabolous recently spoke with SOHH on whether the Internet may have helped or hurt the rapper's overall first-week sales.
"I don't know, it's hard because this digital era, people will watch your videos and stuff all day but not go get your album," Fab explained. "So, it doesn't translate. You can have one million, two million, ten million views on something but that doesn't mean that people are going to actually go buy the album." (SOHH)
Despite taking extreme measures in his rap battle with 50 Cent, both emcees' generated consumers' attention which, in turn, purchased their past releases.
The real winner may be Universal Music Group, which owns Island Def Jam and Interscope, the labels the rappers are signed to. Since the dispute started in January, the sales of Ross' two previous albums have increased by 62%, while sales of 50 Cent's three catalog titles grew by 74%, according to Nielsen Soundscan. And the more that bloggers wrote about the battle, according to the online chatter tracker Nielsen BuzzMetrics, the more the two artists reaped the benefits. (Billboard)
Ross has yet to release a statement regarding his album's stellar debut.

Keyshia In King Magazine
On changing any part of her body
I’d make my breasts smaller. They’re too big. I can’t wear any of the tops that the other girls wear. But I appreciate them anyway. God is good regardless, so I’m going to be good with it. I don’t want to make God mad at anything right now. I don’t think he’d appreciate that.
Disqualifications from being “Mr. Right”
Jealousy. I wouldn’t be able to handle that. No jealousy right now. He don’t have to be a certain height, just a beautiful person all around. It wouldn’t hurt if he knows how to make breakfast. And if he had a beautiful smile and lips.
On Mr. Right being a White Man
I would have to know that he’s really serious. I’ve never dated a white guy but I’m definitely open to it. I don’t care what people say.
On Her Celebrity Friends
My Mama. She’s a celebrity. No, Monica and I stay in touch. Her child Melo is my godson. Oh, and I hang out with Paris and Nicky Hilton sometimes. We go out when I’m in LA. I actually had Thanksgiving dinner with them.
What Recession???
I’m a princess. I have a house right now on an acre. A lot of people are coming by my house, knocking on my door. But I own a gun- a Glock. Somebody followed me home once and I called the police that I’d kill him and that I’d prefer not to.
Keyshia still has a lil hood in her but she’s definitely gone Hollywood.

What a Monday Morning
I got up real early, earlier than usual till no one actually will believe I am awake at that time. So I drove to KL city.
I stop by somewhere then headed off to Times Square for hype of the day.
No, it aint a sneaker shop cuz it is...
Today is their 1st day for business and I didn't queue up cuz I hate waiting so my stop at Times Square was a waste. I was told by a staff that they'll have an outlet at Mid Valley Bangsar soon.
I guess those who says that they went there before today either got good connects or they just good at tellin' a lie.
