Kanye West: Niggas in Paris with Jay-z


Like Jay-z, Kanye West also has an enviable string of consecutive #1 albums, showing how solid the fan base is of rap and hip hop music.  In an earlier article I wrote, even the rapper, The Game, who is not really a household name worldwide, has three #1 albums in the US. 

The collaboration between Kanye West and Jay-z, Watch the Throne, becomes his fifth #1 album in the US.  Below are his other #1 albums -

2005 - Late Registration
2007 - Graduation
2008 - 808s & Heartbreak
2010 - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
2011 - Watch the Throne (with Kanye West)

Kanye West's fifteenth Top 10 hit in the US, Niggas in Paris, his collaboration with Jay-z, slips to #9 this week.  It has peaked at #5.  Below are his Top 10 hits in the US -
