The Adventures of Ichiban on the CMJ Charts
This is because The Official CMJ Website does not post a new chart for the public to see until usually 2 or 3 weeks after that chart is released.
So for the sake of clarity, we have chronicled the rise of "Psycle Analysis", the debut album from Rapper Ichiban of Denver, on the CMJ Hip Hop Top 40.
CMJ Issue #1084: In his fifth week on the CMJ Top 40 Hip Hop chart, Ichiban dropped out of the Top 20, and landed at #21 on the CMJ Hip Hop chart.

CMJ Issue #1083: In his fourth week on the CMJ Top 40 Hip Hop chart, Ichiban reached his highest mark yet, breaking the Top 20, and landing at #18. This is especially important because now YOU can go to CMJ.COM, next week, and Ichiban's music will be featured on the Top 20 Hip Hop Chart. Cracking the Top 20 provides Ichiban with many more benefits than before, because many publications only show the Top 20 for Hip Hop.
