The rapper is tied with Elvis Presley for the second-most albums in the top spot. Beatles are first.
Jay-Z's album inspired by the film "American Gangster" scores him another No. 1 album on the U.S. pop chart, selling 425,000 copies in its first week in stores. The rapper withstands a strong second-week showing from the Eagles' "Long Road Out of Eden" to earn his 10th album at No. 1, making him only the third artist in history to land 10 or more albums in the pole position.

Instead of capitalizing on the joys of youth, the blues-rock trio sounds old and tired.
If you'd been looking for a technically impressive display of blues-rock chops Tuesday night, it's unlikely you'd have had more luck than if you'd dropped in at the Viper Room. That's where Back Door Slam, a young trio from the Isle of Man, played the first of two shows in support of a debut album that's earning a bit of buzz among folks who view the history of pop music since 1967 as an unbroken downward slide.

Paul McCartney tells Billboard.com that he's "pretty sure" the Beatles catalog will finally be available online in 2008. "The whole thing is primed, ready to go," he's quoted as saying on the magazine's website. "There's just maybe one little sticking point left, and I think it's being cleared up as we speak, so it shouldn't be too long. It's down to fine-tuning, but I'm pretty sure it'll be happening next year."

Like sands through the hourglass. Some fear time is slipping away for the genre, and the work stoppage could make this bad situation worse.
When veteran soap opera writers heard ABC's official statement about the post-strike future of its daytime dramas -- "We will continue to produce original programming with no repeats and without interruption" -- they knew it was bad news. If history repeats itself, it meant they would be replaced, as soon as necessary, by strike breakers, non-union writers -- or maybe even the producers themselves.

One of Kirsten Sheridan's biggest challenges in directing the film was deciding how best to put pictures to music. At least she had the New York City climate on her side.
IN the new Warner Bros. film "August Rush," a boy stands in a wheat field conducting a symphony that only he can hear. As the wind picks up, the stalks of wheat bend and sway in rhythmic harmony, each sound of nature becoming a note flying off instruments in the boy's mind.

The actress plays a mousy woman in 'This Christmas' -- a type of character she's not used to portraying. In her own life, she's looking for a role change too.
FOR Regina King, the mightiest test in the ensemble comedy-drama "This Christmas" was allowing herself not to be mighty. "The majority of roles I play have the common thread of being a strong person. It was a welcome challenge to play submissive and do it convincingly," she said.

She has attempted many styles, but at Royce Hall, the hip-hop in her wide-ranging program was what resonated most.
It's hard enough to master any one career, but Queen Latifah has already found success in at least three. She began as a teenage rapper in the late '80s, moved into television and movies in the '90s and, most recently, remade herself into a jazz singer. Yet despite these transformations, her relationship to hip-hop -- and hip-hop's to her -- is constant and complex. Hip-hop is the part of Latifah's past that lingers with her, while the music's future awaits her return.

The holiday season has arrived for the music industry, as a dozen albums on the U.S. pop chart this week sold more than 100,000 copies, a rare feat in a year when albums reached the No. 1 spot eight times with sales of less than six figures. Last week's sales were fueled by a host of hits compilations, including a new collection from Led Zeppelin, and a pair of divas.

"Battlestar Galactica: Razor," a two-hour movie designed to keep us happy in the interim, delves into the show's past to find, of course, foreshadowing and peril for the future.

'Heroes' star by day, musical-theater director by night, the 42-year-old actor has never been busier. Or more in control.
IT'S Monday, Nov. 5, the first day of the writers strike, and Adrian Pasdar has time for lunch. With production for his NBC series "Heroes" shutting down behind picket lines and rehearsals for his new musical "Atlanta" off for the day, the actor and neophyte stage director is suddenly, temporarily, at liberty. He has not been at liberty for months, and it feels good.

TV's writer-producers are shaping up to be the most influential players in the industry.
WHEN the dust settles on the strike of '07 -- now 19 days old -- we'll probably see it as a Hollywood turning point. No, not in the history of the Writers Guild of America, or of the studios and networks. It's a critical and historic shift for TV show runners.

WHEN VH1's "Best Week Ever" debuted in 2004, some critics viewed the show an unfortunate byproduct of the network's many incarnations of the nostalgia-heavy "I Love the . . ." series. After the '70s, '80s and '90s were picked apart and reminisced about, what was left to be dissected but last week? Some talking heads bemoaned the program as a symbol of the country's collective short attention span and television's lack of originality. After all, why come up with new material when you can just comment snidely on old stuff? Others felt that the network was simply taking a dead horse of a format and beating it until things got really unpleasant.

'Mist' envelopes another strong King adaptation
Good and creepy, "The Mist" comes from a Stephen King novella and is more the shape, size and quality of the recent "1408," likewise taken from a King story, than anything in the persistently fashionable charnel house inhabited by the "Saw" and "Hostel" franchises.

311. 'Margot at the Wedding' (starring Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Jason Leigh and Jack Black) -- 4 stars
'Margot' is difficult company but worth the effort
In the right context we readily accept the grisliest violence and the harshest language. A certain segment of the filmgoing populace has no problem with graphic depictions of sex in a mainstream feature (never mind what they're watching at home). The last frontier, really, is the emotional realism you get in a spiky black comedy such as "Margot at the Wedding."

'Balloon,' 'Mane' a pair of classic imports
There was a time when Albert Lamorisse's film "The Red Balloon" was the quintessential French cultural export. Since its 1956 release it has come up for a fair amount of ridicule from various quarters, in the way that "The Little Prince" has courted charges of preciousness. (That one may deserve it.) But time has been very good to Lamorisse's 34-minute story of a boy and an exceptionally loyal balloon, and it has floated back to Earth in a beautifully restored print. Beginning Friday it plays at the Music Box Theatre for a week, along with Lamorisse's "White Mane" (1953), which also looks gorgeous, in a radically different and haunting way.

Unique singer gets a biopic to match
In "Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story," the director Todd Haynes commandeered a collection of Barbie dolls and Carpenters hits (Haynes reportedly got clearance for neither) to depict imagined scenes from the late vocalist's life. That 1987 film is a creepy little wonder. Haynes clearly loves the music and the Carpenter ethos, so you know you're in the presence of an obsessive character trying to work out his obsession in an arresting way.

Sly princess is enchanting
"Enchanted" is a contraption redeemed by a delightful leading performance. The world may not have needed another attempt to cash in on all things princess-y, but Amy Adams, per the old "Mary Tyler Moore Show" theme song, takes a (potentially) nothing day and suddenly makes it all seem worthwhile. Like Marlo Thomas in "That Girl," she's diamonds, daisies, snowflakes, chestnuts, rainbows and springtime. Yes, and springtime.
