And people on KTT thought Dr0k would outsell Em.

Anyway... NWTS was actually good, imo. Good sales.

Not the biggest fan of his, but those are some respectable numbers. Fair play!!!

Still though as a Stan I can't help but find it funny that Drake can't even outsell Eminem during his peak of popularity, vs Eminem's "veteran" status. SSLP will be 15 years old in Febuary next year.
