Country On Top

This week, music fans cashed in on the country craze, especially with the release of the newest effort from this month’s featured artist, Jason Aldean.  The totals are still being counted, but it looks like Aldean’s My Kinda Party is projected to move about 200,000 copies in its first week (not a bad start), debuting at Billboard’s #2 spot.  Taylor Swift‘s Speak Now will enjoy another week in the top position, projecting to move 350,000 in it’s second week. Also rounding out the top ten this week, it looks like Brad Paisley will land in that last spot with his greatest hits album, Hits Alive.  Maybe it’s in preparation for this Wednesday’s CMA Awards, but country is front in center this fall.

To kick off the weekend, check out Aldean’s latest music video for the first single from the album of the same name, “My Kinda Party”.
