In this week's Hip Hop & R&B charts, Ne-Yo scores another No. 1 album, Akon slips out of the Top 10 and Amy Winehouse trails close behind.

Debuting at No. 1 on the charts this week is R&B crooner Ne-Yo with his sophomore album Because Of You. Thanks in part to his hit single of the same name, the disc scanned 250,000 copies in its first week, according to Nielsen's SoundScan. The set features appearances from Jay-Z and Jennifer Hudson.

Despite falling out of the Top 10 to number 11, Akon continues to rake in the profits. Konvicted pushed 43,490 CDs this week, bringing the album's total sales numbers to 2,270,360.

Tripping two spots down to No. 13 is Amy Winehouse. Back To Black shelves off 33,700 discs this week, bringing the album's tally to 330,800.

Joe, who entered the charts at No. 1, last week, slides twelve spots to No. 14. Ain't Nothing Like Me hustles 33,100 copies in its second week. Thus far, the album has sold a total of 131,600 copies.

Taking the No. 17 spot is Robin Thicke. Evolution Of Robin Thicke still has fiends itching as 30,300 discs get shelled out this week. The album's all around tally stands at 1,045,600.

Sinking eight levels to No. 18 is Fergie. Dutchess reels in 27,900 copies this week, bringing the album's total sales to 1,840,780.

The going has begun to get tough for Young Buck as sales for Buck The World continue to decline. The rapper's sophomore moves only 17,700 units this week. After 6 spins on the charts, the album's tally stands at 288,000.

Last week's release of The Dreamgirls DVD helps the soundtrack make an amazing leap from No. 125 to No. 44. The Dreamgirls soundtrack shifts 15,460 discs this week, pushing the set's total to 974,100.

Paul Wall continues to stall on the charts as he putters twelve spots to No. 44. Get Money, Stay True hustles 15,400 copies this week. After 5 weeks, the album's tally reads off at 190,430.

Further down the rope, MIMS continues to struggle to stay afloat as he surges twenty two spots to No. 68. Music Is My Savior , which has moved 187,800 copies thus far, sold 11,000 more discs this week. Also slumping hard is Rich Boy, who tumbled twelve spots to No. 62.
