Off The Charts
 

keysasiam.jpgBlame it on a lack of any viable new competition or the fact that she's pretty great (or both), but Alicia Key's As I Am is back to number one on the Billboard 200 in her 12th week on the charts. She sold 61,000 albums this week. Also gracing the top 10 are Mary J. Blige at No. 5 and Keyshia Cole at No. 10. Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana is on it twice. Can I be this kid's agent?

The list after the jump.

1. Alicia Keys, As I Am, 1, 12
2. Juno, Soundtrack, 1, 5
3. The Mars Volta, The Bedlam in Goliath, 3, 1
4. Bullet For My Valentine, Scream Aim Fire, 4, 1
5. Various Artists, 2008 Grammy Nominees, 5, 1
6. Mary J. Blige, Growing Pains, 1, 7
7. Hannah Montana, Hannah Montana: Non-Stop Dance Party, 7, 1
8. Keyshia Cole, Just Like You, 2, 19
9. Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift, 5, 67
10. Miley Cyrus, Hannah Montana 2 (Soundtrack)/Meet Miley Cyrus, 1, 32

It is definitely well deserved. The album is beautiful, I think it is one of her best.

Alicia deserves to be number 1 faeva, she is talented and she is not just beautiful outside, she has a beautiful spirit. People are really jealous of her, hell she can't help her talent has folks buying her album.

If one more person in my office ads Alicia's "No One" as their ring tone, I swear to god I will freak out.

Alicia's CD is good, but I'm really feeling Mary J's more than any other right now. Keyshia's isn't bad either. 2007 was an amazing year for R&B.

Who is dropping this year? Janet, Mariah and ???

Omg, I must be the only person who can't stand her music now. I liked Alicia's first album but this one is terrible so far, imo.
'No One' and that other one that they play to death on the radio sound whiney as hell to me. When did she get to be such a damn whiner while singing?

On another note, I will definitely be purchasing that new 'The Mars Volta' cd. Mary J. and Keyshia are awesome in my opinion!!
