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.
