"According to sources, UMG is projecting first-week sales of 400,000 units, split evenly between digital and physical. given overlap between the two artists' fanbases, UMG is being conservative with its projection."


"While the CD version of "Watch the Throne" is priced and merchandised in Amazon's CD music store, there is nary a sign of the album in the Amazon MP3 store, leading some to speculate that Amazon may use this as an opportunity to sell the album for 99 cents "

Interscope only shipped like 100 000 of BME right? I remember reading 80% opening week was digital.

89,000 units or 52% of the Hell: The Sequel's first week sales was digital

@Zeek What did you intend to say when you said "Interscope only shipped like 100,000 of BME right?"

Hell: The Sequel has sold 370,000 copies in the U.S. so far & 568,000 worldwide. It sold 227,000 copies worldwide in its first week, of which 171,000 was from the U.S.

I actually thought I read that somewhere that it sold mostly digital copies. Thats why I thought it was undershipped. I actually think it should have been "Eminem and Royce da 5.9 - Bad Meets Evil EP". Maybe it would have sold more. Everyone is going to bring up BME when WTT comes out. Saying Jay and Ye won. Im sure everyone here knows that though. I saw a bunch of people on billboard saying Em flopped cause he dissed gaga.

what? when did I say that? I just didn't expect huge commercial success for the EP. Unlike most ppl, I don't compare what's good to album sales

i just thought that cuz you mentioned the sales shit .

I'd like to know how they explain Gaga's current low album sales.

[Zeek]

Lady Gaga is being bested by both Adele and Taylor in records sales, plus she is like 10th in touring money per show.

It was pretty obvious for me they would hit Gold, 500k is nothing, so it's no way a surprise. And yeah, they'll hit Platinum, I thought earlier though.

[Zeek]

How much had Im not a human being sold by now? Since that is sitting at 922.000? Maybe its a good comparison for measuring if HTS will make it there.

[Emadyville]

when is this watch the throne shit coming out?

and is that an EP too or a full album witha million features

[Zeek]

Its a real album. Probably going to be a classic. That Otis track is great.

[OMEGA]

LOL @ Watch The Throne. Red Album is the album to "watch" on August. I'm hoping for 500k at least.

[TheGentlePlayer]

Watch The Trone will do big numbers

Don't get your hopes up, anything above 100k is good for Game now a days.

Game has a loyal fanbase... I think this time he will do 250 - 350 k ... That's pretty good
