The Game’s ‘L.A.X.’ Inches Its Way to No. 1

Game L.A.X.

The Game’s third album L.A.X. will debut at the top of the charts next week, but only by a nose. Game sold 238,285 units, besting No. 2′s Slipknot by only 14 copies. This makes Game’s third consecutive No. 1 album, but lowest first-week sales of his career. Both 2005′s The Documentary (587,000) and 2006′s Doctor’s Advocate (358,000) debuted at No. 1.

Solange Knowles’ SoL-AngeL and The Hadley St. Dreams comes in at #9 with 46,300 sold.

UPDATE: According to Billboard, Slipknot in fact beat The Game to debut at No. 1. The rockers moved 239,516 copies, only 1,134 more than L.A.X. at 238,382.

    That’s pretty impressive considering the Game didn’t have a lot of promotion.

    Wow, 1,134 copies more. I didn\’t expect Slipknot to sell that much in the first place.

    All i know is that i bought the album and while it\’s not as impressive as the first or second album, it\’s still another classic by Game.

    That’s a bitch. I’d be a lil perturbed.

    Solange. :( She could literally throw a party for all those that bought the album…
