Jay-Z remains in the No. 1 slot on the Billboard 200 albums chart, with his new album “The Blueprint 3″ selling 298,000 copies. At No. 2 on the Billboard 200, Whitney Houston’s “I Look To You” climbs one spot with 156,000 copies. Following Houston is the first of five debuts in the top 10: Muse’s “The Resistance” at No. 3 with 128,000 copies — a career-high for the act. That figure more than doubles the band’s previous best week, when 2006′s “Black Holes and Revelations” debuted and peaked at No. 9 with 48,000 copies. Kid Cudi is up next with his debut effort, “Man on the Moon: The End of Day,” which starts at No. 4 with 104,000 copies sold. Drake’s seven-song EP, “So Far Gone,” gives the rapper his first taste of the Billboard 200, starting at No. 6 with 73,000 copies. His proper full-length debut should surface in early 2010. Rapper Lil Boosie nets his first top 10 set with “Superbad” starting at No. 7 with 49,000 copies, while rock band Megadeth scores its fifth top 10 set with “Endgame,” entering at No. 9 with 45,000 copies. As for the non-debuts in the top 10 of the Billboard 200, Miley Cyrus’ “The Time Of Our Lives” EP falls three rungs to No. 5 with 75,000 (down 38%), Taylor Swift’s “Fearless” moves up two slots to No. 8 with 46,000 (up 37%) and the Black Eyed Peas’ “The E.N.D.” slips three places to No. 10 with 40,000 (down 8%). Swift’s big gain was likely the result of both her performance on the MTV Video Music Awards and the endless buzz surrounding Kanye West’s hijacking of her Best Female Video acceptance speech. Check out the full list of top 10 albums on Billboard Top 200 this week below.

Fifty years ago, in the Aug. 4, 1958, issue, Billboard launched a revolutionary chart called the Hot 100. After nearly two decades of tracking songs distinctively by sales or plays (on jukeboxes and at radio), the Hot 100 was the first list to measure popularity by incorporating both radio play and sales. Scoring the chart’s inaugural [...]
