Some Highlights:

Eminem Tops Garth:

Eminem is the first artist in Nielsen/SoundScan history (which dates to 1991) to top the 700K plateau in weekly sales with four albums. Runner-up Garth Brooks topped that mark with three albums: The Hits, Sevens and Double Live.

This week's hefty total for Recovery pushes Eminem from #10 to #9 on Nielsen/SoundScan's running list of the best-selling album artists in its history. (He pushes ahead of Pink Floyd.) Eminem has sold 36,519,000 albums, which makes him the top rapper on the list. He is way ahead of Jay-Z, who is #27 overall with sales of 27,888,000 albums.

Eminem is also breaking records on the digital song front. "Love The Way You Lie," Eminem's collabo with Rihanna, sold 338,000 copies this week. It's Eminem's third song to achieve one-week sales of 300K. "Crack A Bottle," his all-star collaboration with Dr. Dre and 50 Cent, opened with sales of 418,000 in February 2009. "Not Afraid" opened with sales of 379,000 in May. Eminem is the only artist who has topped 300K in weekly sales with three songs. Flo Rida, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift have each topped 300K with two songs.
