Boondox's South of Hell Has Great First Week

Tracy Heck
Rapper Boondox's newest album, South of Hell, which is packaged with his documentary Southern Bled, debuted at number 9 on the Independent Chart, number 54 on the Billboard 200, and sold 9,000 records during release week.

Out of three studio length albums plus one EP, South of Hell is Boondox's best selling and charting album upon release.

His albums have consistently improved on the music charts with each new release, which is a big accomplishment for an artist on an underground record label. The rapper is currently signed to Detroit's Psychopathic Records, which is home to the Insane Clown Posse.

Boondox's The Harvest (2006) did not chart; PunkinHed (2007) peaked at number 27 on the Independent Chart; Krimson Creek (2008) peaked at number 13 on the Independent Chart and number 113 on the Billboard 200.

Like all Psychopathic Records artists, Boondox's success is extremely remarkable because it has been obtained without any major radio and television airplay.

Boondox is currently on a in-store meet and greet tour which made a stop last Tuesday at Garden City's Rock of Ages music store.

After the in-stores, he will be setting out on a tour to promote the album. There are currently no Michigan dates.
