If ever one needed proof of America's diverse musical tastes, this week provides ample evidence. The late Eazy-E's protagas Bone Thugs-N-Harmony see E. 1999 Eternal, the follow-up to their triple-platinum debut EP, enter at No. 1. Further down the chart, country's Shania Twain, Southern-fried stand-up Jeff Foxworthy, R&B's TLC and Jodeci, the soundtracks to Batman Forever and Pocahontas, and the posthumous release from Tejano star Selena make it clear that this country wants more than its MTV.
