Ozzy Osbourne's 'Patient Number 9' earns top 10 'Billboard 200' debut

Ozzy Osbourne's Patient Number 9 debuts in upper reaches of the top 10 of this week's Billboard 200.

The latest solo effort from the Prince of Darkness lands at #3 on the all-genre album chart with a total of 58,000 equivalent album units, 52,000 of which were traditional album sales. That latter figure makes Patient Number 9 the best-selling album of the week.

Patient Number 9 is, fittingly, Ozzy's ninth top 10 release as a solo artist. He's also notched two top 10 records with Black Sabbath, including a #1 with the metal legends' 2013 swan song, 13.

Ozzy dropped Patient Number 9 on September 9. Like its predecessor, 2020's Ordinary Man, PN9 features a whole host of guest contributors, including Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Black Sabbath's Tony Iommi, Pearl Jam's Mike McCready, Black Label Society's Zakk Wylde, Duff McKagan of Guns N' Roses, Chad Smith of Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica's Robert Trujillo and late Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins.
