Eminem Sales Thread

While Arcade Fire celebrated its first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 past this past week with the arrival of "The Suburbs," it's looking like a familiar face will return to the top slot next week: Eminem.

His "Recovery" set will probably skip back to No. 1 as "The Suburbs" is likely take a steep sales slide in its second week and none of this past Tuesday's new releases are aiming to challenge for the top slot.

"Recovery" will probably sell around 135,000 to 150,000 by week's end on Sunday, Aug. 15 -- a sales figure that will likely outpace the rest of the chart field.

Industry prognosticators are suggesting that the tally's biggest debut will come from either Disney Channel's soundtrack to "Camp Rock 2: the Final Jam" or perhaps Black Label Society's "Order of the Black." Each title could sell around 40,000 if all sales forecasts hold steady through the week.

Mike Posner's debut album "31 Minutes to Takeoff" and Blake Shelton's new EP "All About Tonight" are also maybe headed for a top 10 debut, as both are aiming for a start in the range of 30,000.

Since his "comeback" in May 2009 with Relapse he has sold approximately 6.5 million albums worldwide, right?? (thats worldwide sales for both Relapse & Recovery)

I just want him to reach the landmark of "100 million albums sold worldwide" - hopefully with a few more albums he can EASILY do that, and maybe more.

My guess is in 5 years he will be right around 100 mill WW

[Emadyville]

^ yeah i agree. i think his next album, in addition to the rest of recovery/relapse sales, will put him around 90 mill, and all his other albums might combine for a mill, so like 91 mill by next album.

but wait whats his exact total now

Around 85 mill.

[accutub]

yeah 100 million would be a great total... Imagine eminem did 100 million in the 2000s... imagine that there is no such thing as free music, i think he'd be MJ status by now (sales wise)

2 more albums and we have 100mill

[biggi247]

This is just a rough guess but I think its a pretty low estimate. I figure from release to end of year is a bout 27 weeks. Because he has already done about 1.29 million in the rest of the world I think he will have sold about 1.7 million in the rest of the world so I reckon end of year WW would be about 4.7-4.8 Mill. What you think?
