Nas Tops The Billboard Hot 100 This Week

Nas has reason to celebrate this week - his new Untitled album has just topped Billboard's Top 200 Albums chart.

This is the fifth number one for Nas to date after he sold 187,000 copies of the record this week. This new chart placing also means he's toppled Lil Wayne's reign at the top spot, with 'Tha Carter III' now residing at number 2 (it sold 105,000 copies).

Nas also kept off competition such as the 'Mamma Mia Soundtrack' and 'Viva La Vida' by Coldplay.
