Reba McEntire's Reba Duets tops Billboard chart, ousting Kanye West

Reba McEntire's 'Reba Duets' has taken the top spot on the Billboard chart from Kanye West's 'Graduation', selling 301,000 copies in its first week.

Reba McEntire's 'Reba Duets' album has knocked Kanye West's much feted 'Graduation' long-player off the top of the US's Billboard charts, shifting 301,000 copies in its first week. Although this pails in insignificance to West's first week sales it still managed to become the country star's best weekly sales since 1991- so hurrah for her.

McEntire's album, as the title suggests, is full of duets with artists across different genres, including Faith Hill, fellow country singer Kenny Chesney and Justin Timberlake, who seems to be appearing just about everywhere at the moment.

Elsewhere on the US chart, now you've brought it up, West is at number 2, with 50 Cent falling behind him at number 3 and Barry Manilow's 'The Greatest Song Of The Seventies' at number 4.
