Eminem returns to the top of the chart this week after two weeks out. This is his sixth week at #1, the longest run of any album since Susan Boyle's I Dreamed a Dream hit the top late last year. Justin Bieber returns to the top 5 once again five months after the initial release of My World 2.0. Newcomer Mike Posner follows his top 10 smash single "Cooler Than Me" with a top 10 debut for his album 31 Minutes To Takeoff.

Little change in the top 5 this week except for Taio Cruz climbing to within one notch of the top with "Dynamite." Bruno Mars has a powerful leap into the top 20 with his first solo single after featuring on two top 5 smash hits. Taylor Swift returns to open at a strong #33 with "Mine," the first single from the upcoming Speak Now album.
