The 20-20 Experience Part 2 was roundly panned by critics — including New York’s Jody Rosen, who called it a “big bummer†— but Justin Timberlake is still a recognizable name to the people who actually buy records. So the album sold 350,000 copies, which makes it No. 1 on the Billboard 200 by a wide margin. Also in the top ten: Lorde, who comes in at No. 3 (129,000) and HAIM (26,000, almost all them downloads). Tell your parents about HAIM!
