Eminem Sales Thread

Eminem is NO.2 in the UK right now, any chance of it hitting top spot?

Nope. But it's peaked higher than any other Eminem song besides Love The Way You Lie since his comeback.

Berzerk should remain in the top 5 in the official chart today and Rap God should make a top 5 debut.

More than good enough IMO... at the end of the day sales matter the most so I only hope it'll keep selling rather than been number one.

Any chance Rap God debuts at #2 in the US?

Any chance Rap God debuts at #2 in the US?

None, I think. There's no radio play. With Sales+Stream, it will certainly be top 5.

the Rihanna collab and the Fun collab are going to be HUGE radio songs.

Rihanna hyped the Monster collab few times already

UK Sales

Eminem sold 70,218 copies of Berzerk, the first single from his new album, The Marshall Mathers LP 2, to debut at number two last week. Quickfire follow-up Rap God now debuts at number five (33,612 sales), while Berzerk falls to number seven (32,076 sales). Rap God is his 25th hit, of which all but four have been as a primary artist.

Thanks, Hamza.
I think the position it debuted is good, the sale though...

[AJS2050]

The sales for both Rap God and Berzerk in the UK are really good. Just Lose It debuted at number 1 back in 2004 with similar sales. Rap God was released on a Tuesday so it had 2 days less than the other songs on the chart.

[Francesco]

Definitely very good for UK sales... I can't wait to see how all 3 singles are gonna do in the US this week. AJS homie please be on your A game!

Over on the Digital Songs chart, Eminem's new single "Rap God" bumps Lorde's "Royals" from No. 1, as the former arrives with 270,000 downloads sold. It's the third song to get a digital release from his upcoming album, "The Marshall Mathers LP 2." It follows "Berzerk" (No. 2 debut with 362,000) and "Survival" (No. 7 bow with 112,000).
