Eminem Sales Thread

That was pretty funny how TMMLP started selling like crazy yesterday.

[bcooper21]

They are selling artpop for 5.99 on amazon and google play and it's still only going to sell 260k including 100k preorders lol sad day. Eminem album is 17$ and out selling ur 6$ album.

What a huge drop in sales if its true her last album did 1.1 mil in first week what happened!

[alicia11]

I still think we can tone the expectations down cause nearly ALL albums drop huge on their second week and JT, Drake, JayZ, Luke Bryan are no exceptions. Anything above 200k is really good I think. For even this year's top seller(JT) has sold a little more than 2.3 million ...
it's a pathetic and shitty overall environment in music industry......
