Rapper Wale may have done the smartest thing by moving to Rick Ross' Maybach Music Group. The D.C. rhymer released his second album, Ambition, this week and it already looks to be a commercial smash bigger than his debut.

The album is likely to be the number one album on Billboard this week.

Ambition is predicted to sell between 170-190K units in its first week, which would put Wale behind only pop star Justin Bieber's holiday album, Mistletoe, which is projected towards 200-225K.
