REC✚VƎRY - 1 Year Of Release

Postby nandish » Jun 21st, '11, 16:27

Its been one year today - June 21, 2011 - since Recovery was released worldwide. I thought I'd post a new topic.

Some trivia about the album:
● The album has scooped 10 Grammy nods, 2 Grammy wins - Best Rap Album & Best Rap Solo Performance. :worship:
● Its has sold 3.9m copies in the U.S and close to 7m worldwide. :worship:
● It is the highest selling album in the U.S, Australia, Canada & worldwide for 2010. :worship:
● It is the highest selling digital album in music history. :worship:
● "Love The Way You Lie" sales figures are at 9.3 million worldwide & 4.58 million in the U.S. It was the best selling single in the UK in 2010 & is the 29th best selling single of all time according to Wikipedia. :worship:
● "Not Afraid" was the 16th song ever to debut at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 ( And the second song to do that since the charting rules were changed to make it less easier to debut at #1). Em became the first male artist to achieve the feat. :worship:
● "Love The Way You Lie" received 6.6 million YouTube views in the first 24 hours of release, the highest for any video thus-far.
● In its first week, 7 tracks from the album made it to the Billboard Hot 100.

Post other facts not seen above. Shady forever.

His next album could build on the success of that and it could do ridiculous numbers, the sales Recovery has are impressive as it is

I actually have pretty good faith that his next full fledged album will surpass the week 1 sales of Recovery. The reason I say this is because a lot of people were hesitant after Relapse (which I personally enjoy) and were considering Em a thing of the past. After Recovery he blasted back and destroyed charts and records.

Yes Recovery is a way more commercial album, but I don't mind if it is at parts there are some great ass songs on there. Almost Famous, Cold Wind Blows, etc. are classic Slim Shady songs. I enjoy the others as well.
And everything's spinning

I'm guessing you read that off wikipedia that was posted a few months ago so it's been longer than 27 weeks.

Sla is right.

Like it or not, Recovery brought back Em on top of the world. Facebook fans, Twitter fans, everything.
