The Epic Records rapper will perform hits past and present at TAO, LAVO and Marquee. His residency is scheduled to begin Sept. 17 at Marquee Nightclub with later dates yet to be announced.
The hip-hop artist will join the likes of Britney Spears, Rod Stewart and Jennifer Lopez, who occupy the strip with their fan-favorite hits. Montana holds six Hot 100 hits, with features on songs by Drake, Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, Jeremih, Kodak Black and Rick Ross.
The rapper is expected to drop his upcoming second studio album MC4 this week. The album is a continuation of Montana’s Mac & Cheese series. Tracks from the upcoming sophomore album will be included in Montana’s set during his residency with TAO Group. Source: BillBoard |
2013-05-30 | Daft Punk Leads Debut-Filled Top Four on Billboard 200 Album Chart | Led by Daft Punk at No. 1, the entire top four on the Billboard 200 albums chart are debuts this week. The dance/electronic duo sees its new "Random Access Memories" launch at atop the tally with 339,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan. As reported last night, it is the second-largest sales week of the year for an album. Only the debut of Justin Timberlake's "The 20/20 Experience" was larger.
65% of Daft Punk's sales were from digital downloads, equating to 221,000 in sales. It's the second-biggest digital week of the year, behind, again, only "20/20's" first-week digital haul of 452,000.
At Nos. 2-4, respectively, on the chart this week are bows from Darius Rucker's "True Believers" (83,000), the National's "Trouble Will Find" (75,000) and French Montana's "Excuse My French" (56,000).
Rucker's start is larger than initially forecast, as insiders had pegged "True Believers" to launch with around 60,000 to 65,000. Comparably, his last studio effort, 2010's "Charleston, SC 1966," also bowed at No. 2 -- but with 101,000 (his best sales week so far).
While he's yet to claim at No. 1 as a solo act on the Billboard 200 (he's collected two as part of Hootie & The Blowfish), his new album marks his third straight No. 1 on the Top Country Albums chart -- his entire output of country material. Previous to his career in country music, he issued one solo R&B set, 2002's "Back to Then."
At No. 3 on the Billboard 200 this week is rock band the National, starting with a career-high 75,000 for its sixth studio album, "Trouble Will Find Me." Its No. 3 entry ties the band's 2010 effort "High Violet" for its highest-charting set yet. "High Violet" debuted and peaked with 51,000 on the tally dated May 29, 2010. Source: BillBoard |
