The
ruling
lady
of
the
US
pop
album
chart
Susan
Boyle
is
going
to
keep
rapper
T.I.
away
from
the
top
spot
once
again.
It
is
going
to
be
a
close
contest
between
Susan
and
the
jailed
rapper.
No
one
can
predict
the
sale
of
'The
Gift" by
Susan
Boyle
till
December
12th.
However,
last
week
it
sold
271,500
copies,
which
was
3%
more
than
the
earlier
week.
Till
today,
'The
Gift"
has
sold
263,000
copies.
In
the
month
of
November,
Susan
faced
a
tough
competition
from
Kanye
West"s
new
album,
which
debuted
at
No
1.
T.I.
has
a
record
of
three
albums
being
at
No.
1
and
if
the
latest
'No
Mercy" can
make
it
to
the
top,
then
it
will
be
a
record
itself.
The
industry
experts
are
expecting
it
to
get
a
start
in
the
range
of
130,000-140,000.
In
2008,
T.I."s
'Paper
Trail"
had
a
grand
debut
of
568,000
copies.
The
rapper
was
sent
for
an
11-month
prison
term
for
violation
of
his
probation
rule.
Let"s
wait
for
the
next
week"s
sale
to
know
who
is
ruling
the
US
chart
this
time.
Susan
has
shown
a
consistency
but
T.I.
has
his
line
of
fan
following
so
we
can"t
ignore
the
pressure
created
by
him
'No
Mercy".
