Swizz Beatz scores big with his debut album One Man Band Man bowing at No. 1 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and Top Rap Albums charts. Best known as a top flight producer for the likes of megastars like Beyonce, T.I. and Jay-Z, the industry powerhouse also opens t at the No. 7 spot on the Billboard 200.

Following at a very close second is the latest from underground mega-name Talib Kweli, Eardrum at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 as well as the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and Top Rap Albums charts. Featuring a ton of big name guests such as Kanye West, UGK, Musiq, Roy Ayers, Jean Grae, Raheem DeVaughn, Pete Rock and KRS-One, this set is being called a "comeback" for the conscious Brooklyn emcee.

At No. 8, M.I.A. drops her sophomore set Kala. The Sri Lanka native again nixes traditional song structure for genre bending rhythms that embrace her growing international fan base and is one of the most interesting rap chart albums of the year.

Two steps behind at No. 10, Project Pat rounds out the Top 10 with his latest What Cha Starin' At? The 21-track set features Lil' Jon, Three 6 Mafia and Pimp C.

And while these new albums make their debut in the top of the chart, two sets fall out of the Top 10 with embarrassing quickness. WC's Guilty By Affiliation plummets 6-20, while 2Pac's Nu Mixx Klazzics Vol. 2 (Evolution: Duets And Remixes) catapults 8-25.

New albums this week also includes Blaze's Clockwork Gray which bows at No. 34.

In song land, Fergie's "Big Girls Don't Cry" rises one spot to the top of the Billboard Hot 100. According to Billboard, this third No. 1 hit from her solo album The Dutchess makes the Black Eyed Peas singer the first female artist with three No. 1s from one album since Christina Aguilera in 2000.

J. Holiday's "Bed" earns the rank of this week's fastest growing track at radio while jumping 24-15 on the Hot 100 and edging closer to the top of the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs list, 6-2.

Meanwhile, Alicia Key's latest track "No One" is this week's highest ranking debut song at No. 65. The catchy, anthem-like tune is from her upcoming album, As I Am, due in November.
