Frank Ocean's decision to release his album Channel Orange, a week earlier on July 10th instead of July 17th and only have it digitally available for the first week, has brought him to rise to the No. 2 spot on the Billboard 200 list. His album has sold 128,000 copies digitally in the first week alone. Those numbers would most definitely have been even greater if the album was available as a hard copy CD. The only person that was able to beat Frank's album sales was Chris Brown, who has a total of 180,000 sales for his Fortune album thus far.
