Weakend Chart Preview

YOUR WEAKEND CHART PREVIEW

Eminem logs another week at #1 as Recovery hits the 2.23m mark. Possibly looking to protect their lead as the year's best-selling album, Lady Antebellum sees a boost this week, thanks to sale pricing at iTunes and a Target circular. Lady A will easily pass 2.54m and continue as the year's reigning champ for at least a few more weeks. Here's how it looks headed into the weekend:

Eminem (Shady/Aftermath/Interscope) 115-120k
*Kem (Universal Motown) 70-75k
*Iron Maiden (Columbia) 65-70k
*Ray Lamontagne (RCA) 60-65k
*Trace Adkins (Show Dog) 45-50k
Arcade Fire (Merge) 30-35k
Lady Antebellum (Capitol Nashville/EMI) 30-35k
Justin Bieber (Island/IDJ) 27-30k
*David Gray (Downtown) 24-27k
Rick Ross (Def Jam/IDJ) 22-25k
Drake (Young Money/Cash Money/Universal Motown) 22-25k
*John Mellencamp (Rounder) 21-24k
Avenged Sevenfold (Warner Bros.) 21-24k
Kidz Bop Kids 18 (Razor & Tie) 20-22k
