STRONG DEBUT FROM BONE THUGS-N-HARMONY/BOBBY V

Debuting at No. 2, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony's "Strength & Loyalty" (Full Surface/Interscope) sells 119,000. The set is the group's first top 10 album since "BTNHResurrection" debuted at No. 2 in 2000. Last year's "Thug Stories" only peaked at No. 25 with 31,000.



R&B singer Bobby Valentino's sophomore set "Special Occasion" bows at No. 3, the same place his self-titled debut entered in 2005. The DTP/Island Def Jam set sold 92,000, significantly fewer than the 180,000 copies that greeted "Bobby Valentino."



Last week's chart-topper, Ne-Yo's Def Jam album "Because of You," slips to No. 4 with 89,000, a 65% dive.

Dipset's "DukeDaGod Presents Dipset" (Diplmatic) at No. 26 with 23,000. (WELL DUKE TRIED!)
