The first week album sales for Mary J. Blige’s and Omarion’s new projects have arrived.
With 55,000 album copies sold during its first week, Blige’s latest set The London Sessions earns the singer-songwriter her 13th top 10 album on the Billboard 200 after debuting at No. 9. The album also tops the Billboard Top Hip/Hop & R&B Albums chart, making it her 10th studio album to achieve this feat. The latter accomplishment ties the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul with the Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin for the most No. 1 albums on that particular chart.
