Lil Wayne album sells 1m copies in first week
It's all very well going around harping on about being "the best rapper alive", but it doesn't mean much if you're only selling 38 records to your mum. Luckily Lil Wayne now has the stats to back up his bragging, as his album Tha Carter III has sailed past the 1m mark in its first week.
This means our favourite vocally manipulated syrup-slurper now boasts the fastest-selling first week release of the year in the US, trouncing Mariah Carey's E=MC2, which sold just under half a million copies in its first week.
Lil Wayne's achievements haven't been matched since 50 Cent topped the mil mark three years ago with The Massacre. Kanye West's The Graduation came close, but fell about 50,000 under the crucial million.
The news will be especially gratifying for Wayne, who recently told Vibe magazine how he never seemed to get the respect his rapping deserved.
Tha Carter III was pushed up the charts on the back of the track Lollipop, which had topped the Billboard Hot 100 for weeks before being pushed off by Coldplay's Viva La Vida.

Bbc News Found Wanting After Devolution
The BBC must improve its coverage of the way Britain's four nations are governed in the wake of devolution, an impartiality report has found.
Research by Cardiff University and market research firm BMRB for the BBC Trust find no concerns exist about BBC News' impartiality, but that the different politics and policies in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are not being addressed sufficiently.
But it noted that there were no complaints about a lack of political impartiality, from either politicians or members of the public in all of Britain's four nations.
Research found 37 per cent of people believe the BBC's reports are often irrelevant to whether they live, while 19 per cent said they found reports on devolution to be "vague or confusing".
BBC Trust chairman Sir Michael Lyons said the report showed the BBC was "falling short of its own high standards and is not meeting properly its core purpose of helping to inform democracy".
"The good news is that the public have told us that they want to learn about other parts of the UK," he added, pointing to BMRB research showing 82 per cent of people want to hear news from regions of the UK other than their own.
"This should inspire the BBC to meet this challenge and search for opportunities to make what is happening in different parts of the UK relevant and interesting to all audiences.
"From now on, those watching or listening to BBC News should consistently be able to learn not just what's happening, but whether it's unique to where they live, and how it compares to what might be happening elsewhere in the UK."

Ledger's death is ruled accidental
The death of Australian actor Heath Ledger has been ruled accidental by the New York City Medical Examiner's Office.
The office said today that the 28-year-old actor died due to the abuse of prescription medications.
A statement said: "Mr Heath Ledger died as the result of acute intoxication by the combined effects of oxycodone, hydrocodone, diazepam, temazepam, alprazolam, and doxylamine."
"We have concluded that the manner of death is accident, resulting from the abuse of prescription medications."
The actor's family released a statement saying: "Today's results put an end to speculation, but our son's beautiful spirit and enduring memory will forever remain in our hearts."
"While no medications were taken in excess, we learned today the combination of doctor-prescribed drugs proved lethal for our boy."
The statement also said: "Heath's accidental death serves as a caution to the hidden dangers of combining prescription medication, even at low dosage."
Ledger was found dead at his New York apartment on 22 January.
