Yea you're right. Forgot about Best Buy. Still don't know what Amazon is thinking with 11 bills for an EP. Don't they realize I could get 11 Ja Rule CD's for that price?


you don't think the fact that its Ja Rule has something to do with that.

Or is still considered really high sales for ep song?


You thought it would go #1? No big promotion, no vid out. It had an acceptable run. Hopefully there'll be some big hit on the EP, but I'm doubtful. Image

I think it would be better for them not to even focus on hits...look at the amount of bitching about Recovery, which people love to argue is a "pop" album with two huge number one singles on it. This is Eminem's chance to come back from "going soft" on Recovery, so really, I think for the sake of Em's music, he should concentrate more on making raw, darker toned music. I'll take yelling on dope tracks over another LTWYL any day...

Came back to annihilate, the game's in dire straights, as I await
Word on Satan, as I drop, fall to my knees before this Quija board and I pray
Now I lay me down to sleep
I do this shit in my sleep, I’m sleepin' now, imagine if I awake

If the video is out before June 10th, then it has a chance to do more than 150K.

Hopefully we'll get to see it soon.

you guys are idiots.. BME will prob sell no less than 400k because of Em's fanbase alone.
Think about it, it's a cheaper cd than recovery and imo better quality, and lyrical album.

They didn't want to worry about sales, that's why they wanted to make it an EP instead of LP. They said it in the interview. The EP wasn't made for selling good, they don't care that much about sales.

Your right. Em has 2 diamond albums he's sold enough.. lol it's funny that even when he tries to not sell as much he ends up selling more than other artists..

It might do well when music video is up i hope albums sells well im buying it on itunes day one.

Any idea about price for it?


Pre-order at Amazon is $10.99 which is fucking ridiculous for an EP. It'll do 150k max the first week.

http://www.amazon.com/Hell-Sequel-Bad-M ... 469&sr=8-4

Ill eventually cop it a few weeks in when they lower the price like i did with Recovery.


$10.99? :o :o
Lady Gagas new album is for $1.00 on Amazon :unsure: She'll sell 1 mill :facepalm
I wanted an album so rugged nobody could touch it.
Spent a million a track and went over my budget.
Now how in the fuck am I supposed to get out of debt?
I can't rap anymore, I just murdered the alphabet.

I think 32 is actually great. Most people had never heard of Bad Meets Evil until recently, and for it to get that high with no video and no real promotion, it's great.

I'm going to pre-order the EP just because I want to get it the day it comes out and listen to the actual copy instead of a download. It just makes it more fun to me. I can spare eleven dollars for an EP I really want.
