India.Arie earned her first No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with “Testimony: Vo. 1, Life & Relationship” last week and it remains No. 1 in the U.S.
The singer is scheduled to perform at Live on the Levee on the St. Luis Riverfront on Saturday, July 15.
The album from Universal Motown sold 161,000 copies in its first week in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan, the singer’s best sales week yet.
Her last album, 2002’s “Voyage To India,” debuted at No. 6 with 109,000.
Sales may have been aided in part by the artist’s appearance at the BET Awards last Tuesday during a tribute to Chaka Khan.
