And last week the results came in with West the undisputed victor (see. But who’d come out on top after week two? Would West’s sales continue to eclipse 50’s or would the tables turn resulting in a come-from-behind coup?Well neither ended up being the case and the results stayed pretty much the same: Sales of Graduation were significantly stronger than those generated by Curtis and interest in both sets waned… claims the #113 spot with just over 6000 copies grabbed up.
