1. Lil Wayne

Add the autotune wobbly voice effect made famous by Cher to freshen your Hip Hop sound, and you have what has made Wayne's Tha Carter III the top debuting and selling album release of 2008.

Honorable Mentions:

Sugarland: Sugarland's Love On The Inside brought some of the duo's sugar to this year's Country music charts bringing them sweet popularity.

Kid Rock: The continued success of Kid's Rock N Roll Jesus spanning more than a year since it's release in 2007 has made this entertainer still a top act in 2008.
