Young Money’s Tyga’s sophomore album, Careless World: Rise Of The Last King scored a Top 3 debut, with over 60,000 units sold. The follow-up to 2008′s No Introduction performed over 100 places higher than that Decaydance Records release ever achieved. Careless World achieved the Top 3 despite reports of several retailers unable to sell the album due to a disputed sample of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s voice. The 60,000-plus who did purchase the album heard features by Nas, Wale and Lil Wayne…Congrats!
