Jay-Z Overtakes Elvis!

Beyowulf must be very proud!

Jay-Z‘s new album, The Blueprint 3, hit number one on the Billboard 200 charts this week selling over 476,000 copies.

And that’s not unusual for the rapper, considering this is his 11th album to hit the top spot, which makes him the most successful solo artist since Elvis Presley!!!

Good thing he didn’t follow through with retirement!

Just eight more number ones to tie with The Beatles!
