Jay-Z collects his 11th #1 album on the Billboard 200 this week, as "The Blueprint 3" rockets to the top spot, selling 476,000 copies.
This pushes Jay ahead of Elvis Presley, who managed 10 #1 albums during his time, for the most #1 albums by a solo artists in history! He is now only behind the Beatles for the most #1's overall (the Fab 4 has 19.)
Congrats to Jay, I'm sure his stellar performance at Sunday's VMA's definitely helped his numbers, as well as his hit single "Run This Town" with Rihanna and Kanye West.
