Limp Bizkit Stays Firm at No. 1

The top pop albums in Southern California this week look familiar--the three bestsellers remained unchanged from a week ago and no new releases cracked the Top 10. Limp Bizkit’s “Significant Other” again led the crowd, and the Backstreet Boys and Ricky Martin continued their steady sales streak to take the next two spots. Blink-182 and Santana climbed up from the bottom half of the Top 10, while veteran rapper Too $hort’s “Can’t Stay Away” slid to No. 8 after debuting last week at No. 4.
