I guess, it's like he has to start building his mainstream recognition from the start since his comeback, you know the pop world forget easily. I'm glad not only the album's selling through the roof but the singles are huge success also, Not Afraid is a hit & LTWYL is a mega hit.

True, one more 'different' album and the pop fans or whatever would just remember the bad ones, which would be bad news bears. his first 3 excellent ones they'd be all like k sick dont know what you're talkin about bro.

yeah, I know MMLP sold over 20 millions and all but in this new generation there are a lot of people don't know where the word Stan came from. It's not even about money problem, it's about recognition . He clearly wants his music to reach as many people as possible and he succeeded with Recovery.

that's what i'm worried about. he cares too much about everyone thinks of him now, and if that keeps up with his next albums, it's just going to be an empty eminem rapping about whatever the fans are shouting.

[Alaine]

he always care about what people think of him, all the hard image is just a gimmick. He made Just Don't Give A Fuck and then just after that he made The Way I Am, I don't get why people think he really don't give a fuck.

[Devil'sAdvocate]

Em eatin music.

[Sam.]

after the concerts with jay-z em would reach 2X pl easily
and prolly 3 times at the end of the year.

[RapName]

so it took Relapse 59 weeks to sell 2 mill

Anyone else and they would be delighted with that but kinda expect Eminem to do it a bit quicker.

Wasnt a very mainstream album(very little of it was)and had no singles that the public went for,Recovery is doing better on all fronts

yea i would think Recovery is gonna be at 2 mill by October at the latest

I think it will be over the 2 mill mark by the end of august.

[Biertje?]

94 MARLEY*BOB & THE WAILERS LEGEND 4,909 -9 5,394 10,307,290

Only Bob Marley's album has sold more on that list than the Marshall Mathers LP

Hip hop for the win!

[Alaine]

Recovery is like 500k away from 2 mili now, not THAT much if you think about it.

[RapName]

Recovery is like 500k away from 2 mili now, not THAT much if you think about it.

I know, he is gonne push 100k+ for atleast three more weeks. Like I said, Recovery is 2xplatinum by the end of august

yeah and after that he's gonna get a small push from the LTWYL video release, so the end of August is definitely possible
