Mary J Blige Album Stronger Debuts At #2; Susan Boyle Still Killing Them

The last two years America has seen a British invasion like no other when it comes to music, and now Susan Boyle is proving the UK is nothing to mess with. She has managed to keep Alicia Keys and Mary J Blige from the #1 spot, by outselling all Americans for the past 5 weeks. She’s even beat Taylor Swift.




Mary J Blige managed to sell about 330,000 units which isn’t bad considering she hit her husband during her debut week. Young Money debuted at #9, selling only 142,000 units. Last but not least Alicia Keys album dropped to the #4 spot, which is really great, considering Chris Brown and Rihanna fell off the top ten, and the top 20 for that matter during their second weeks.
