Atlanta rapper B.o.B will bounce Rihanna from the top slot of the Hot 100 to be released on Thursday morning, as his “Nothin’ On You,” featuring Bruno Mars, will jump 2-1 while Rihanna’s “Rude Boy” drops to the runner-up slot.

“Nothin’ On You” also rises to the top of Digital Songs, moving 184,000 downloads according to Nielsen SoundScan. Last week’s top-seller, Train’s “Hey, Soul Sister,” dips to No. 2 with 159,000.

B.o.B also has the Hot 100’s top debut as “Airplanes,” featuring Hayley Williams of Paramore, will land at No. 12 upon the chart’s official release. The track sells 138,000 in its initial week of availability and arrives at No. 5 on Digital Songs. His debut album “B.o.B Presents: The Adventures of Bobby Ray” hits retail this coming Tuesday (April 27).

Damn, B.o.B is doing seriously well. I bet he never expected that.

Nice. He definitely deserves it.

How much do you guys think he'll sell in his first week?

100K at most I reckon.

Yeah probably around that. I don't know what new mainstream releases will be out in the same week but if there aren't any big and important ones he could take Justin Bieber's spot. If he does sell 100k...

I could see him doing 200k since he's had so successful singles. I'm buying it twice, one instant DL and one to be shipped from US.

I'll never get why people buy/download a CD twice. Really, I dont.

I don't normally do this (first and possibly the only time I'll do it actually), but this isn't released in Europe so I have to order it from the US (I want the actual CD for my collection) and since I have the money and the dude deserves it I can just as well buy a DL version while I'm at it. And if I just DL it from some website I'll get the feeling that I'm listening to a mixtape or something, so buying the DL version will give me a better listening experience.

That's fair enough, you gave a good reason. On the eminem.com boards, if you so much as mentioned downloading you wouldnt be classed as a true fan, and they all like buy the CD 3 times. Damn, that place used to piss me off.

Most of them are tards. What does buying a CD have to do with being a fan? If someone likes the dudes music they're a fan imo. Now buying 3 copies of a CD now that's the definition of a "Stan"

i really hope the album does good
