xmas i think 70-80k

[AJS2050]

jeeze were the fuck is Banks!??!,damn his debut week sales are gonna be close to Eminem's 23rd week..fuck!!....and i see u guys sayin recovery's gonna sell between 100-150k in the xmas sales,common dont be stupid,the album is 6 months old,the highest week it will have by the end of the year will be bout 65k

It could sell 100 k? Did you see last years XMAS? - Almost everybody in top 10 sold over 100 k.

AJ: JUST SAY IT ONCE FOR ALL. COULD RECOVERY SELL OVER 100 K WHEN IT IS XMAS?
Because it is gonna sell around 50 k right now.
And in xmas i think it will double it - Right?

I doubt it will return to the top 10 now its already out of the top 20 but sales will be around 70k for christmas week but as i said its very hard to estimate as it depends on new releases and the position its in at the time. The position of Recovery doesn't matter now all im interested in is getting a good amount of sales so it can push 4x Platinum next year.

Recovery:

i agree with AJ,like i said its highest week will be bout 65k by the end of the year.....and yeah,4x platinum by 2012 is very possible.just think about it lets say it will sell bout 3,250,000 this year,so it will hve to sell lets say 800k in the year of 2011...Relapse sold about 350k in 2010,and its nowere near as hot as Recovery,not only that Recovery will win heaps of awards at the Grammys in febuary that will boost the sales quite a bit...im sayin Recovery WILL be at 4x platinum by next 2012,the last Hip-Hop album that sold over 4 million was The Massacre back in 2005!!

6,1 million WW ?!?!?!...NO WAY,its at what, 5,3 million now,so your saying it will sell another 800k in the next 5-6 weeks,that means i will have to do about 140k bu the year end,its selling 68k now,so theres now way it will sell over double every week by the year end...common think first before u write somehing!!

[Alaine]

of course it's not gonna sell over 100k in christmas, does Recovery look like some "christmas-friendly gift" to you guys?

[mecuryball]

the highest recovery can go should be 60k-70k,yall forgeting this is an hiphop album.

[Hamza1972]

Relapse has sold 4,5 million copies: http://www.thecelebritytruth.com/eminem ... se/0011870

[Alaine]

^ there's no such thing as official WW numbers, we only know estimate numbers at best

Was in a music store two days back and my dad ddnt want to buy me the album coz its got that parental guidance sticker!!

And to add to that, there is a lot of "Christmas music" coming out. Bieber, Susan, Taylor Swift, Mariah etc...

I'm sure the grammies + shopping season will boost Recovery sales somewhat
