Eminem Sales Thread

[RSoares]

I'll be a little disappointed if it doesn't sale 200k.

[Francesco]

Maximum 220k I think

I think something like that too... & that would be pretty good actually.

[Marshall1104]

For me he sold 210k

Lady gaga for me sold 260k

[Mathers]

Hopefully the official numbers tomorrow will be higher.

[Shady-Yo]

But it means it won't go platinum 2nd week I hope the SoundScan numbers will be a little higher.

[Raul]

Platinum 1st week? It's like 999k-1M, right?

already Platinum

Something still doesn't up regarding that huge drop... Recovery did 229k 3rd week yet MMLP2 is doing 210-220k 2nd week while opening bigger? I'm pretty sure his buzz is bigger now. There are no factors that can explain this anomaly the way I see it. I know record sales have gone down and all but they did between 2002 and 2004 too yet it didn't affect Encore at all. Like I said before Em's drops are always proportional to the 1st week sales due to his huge popularity.

At least it'll go platinum in two weeks like Recovery. Next week's sales will either prove that Interscope sabotaged it or it'll prove its an anomaly in his 15 year long career.

MMLP2 will be 3-4x platinum in the long run

[Francesco]

Yeah... it'll be just over a millie when Billboard numbers are out which would be still fucking nice... 2 x Plat as soon as like early January too.
I hope them other albums & singles are gonna keep moving digits too.

You think so? I don't see it. Unless of course you mean by long run in 5-10 years from now.. Recovery sold over 100k weekly for 10 weeks and longevity for albums is much lower now than in 2010. Right now i'm thinking it'll stall somewhere between 2,5-3mil unless they can have at least one more huge single after The Monster. Headlights would be perfect but Em seems reluctant to talk about the subject so i'm not sure if it'll be a single.

Recovery will be 5x platinum in 2015
