Eminem Sales Thread

Can anyone please post an updated comparision of Lady A's album and Recovery?

Estimated:

01 - 2,611,000 - NEED YOU NOW - Lady Antebellum
02 - 2,501,000 - RECOVERY - Eminem

Recovery should overtake in 3 weeks time.

It should be 3x plat by New Year's Eve.

if Recovery sells 3 million records by the end of the year it will be the best selling album of the year thats great for Hip Hop,and im sure it will hapen,i think Recovery will do 3,2 million by the end of the year

Theres still about 16/17 weeks til the end of the year, and Em only needs to sell 500k during that timeframe to reach 3x plat. And to sell a minimum of 500k Em will need to average only 30k for the next 16/17 weeks, which he is already easily exceeding (and only 60k average per week for 1mil! - which is possible, tho unlikely) . Don't forget xmas time, sales will increase during that time. Its looking good!

I'm predicting about 3.3m by years end.

^ second

btw I'm a little disappointed at 80k, I was so sure that he could retook the #1 spot this week It's also under estimate (85-90k). Hopefully Billboard numbers are higher

Looks like 2nd. It's not that far off estimates Alaine. Nothing out of the ordinary for hits daily double.

it will be higher tomorrow (it's 12am now where i'm though) when soundscan releases its sales, i hope

well I'm more pissed that he's not #1 this week though, it's his last chance. Guess I'm too greedy for wanting him to stay at #1 all the time

HDD weekend preview on friday said he could do 85-90k & could be #1 so I was expecting #1 and at least 85k?

Recovery stayed 7 weeks at number one,and 9 weeks over 100 k...what else do you guys want!!!!....it acomplished all the sighns of success the only thing it needs to do is to be the best selling album of 2010 and its gonna happen!!

ya, I already said I'm more pissed that he wasn't #1 this week, it was his last chance and you know it would be awesome to be #1 in his 12th week
