Mac Miller has the number one album in America this week with ‘Blue Slide Park’.
The 19-year old rapper ended the week ahead of Michael Buble with sales of around 148,000, according to HitsDailyDouble.com.
That’s not a bad start for a guy who is yet to have a Top 40 single in America. The two singles so far were ‘Frick Park Market’ (no. 60) and ‘Party on Fifth Ave’ (no. 64).
‘Blue Slide Park’ was released on Pittsburgh, Philadelphia indie label Rostrum Records, also the home of another Pittsburgh rapper Wiz Khalifa.
The other debuts this week in the US Top 10 look like being ‘Now That’s What I Call Music 40’, the Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn soundtrack, Romeo Santos ‘Formula Vol 1’ and Il Divo ‘Wicked Game’.
Outside the Top 10 expect to see Disturbed ‘Lost Children’, Tech N9ne Collabos ‘Welcome To Strangeland’ and Noel Gallagher ‘High Flying Birds’. The Gallagher album looks like debuting outside the Top 30 with sales of around 14,000.
