YAYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!

Drake sold 447k in the first week. Now Eminem’s Recovery is expected to move between 590k-615k copies in the opening week at sales. That also gives it a chance to top his last CD Relapse which sold 608k in the first week. Nevertheless, it is set to become the top debut of 2010. Stop comparing Eminem and Drake sales. It’s a win for Hip Hop. My rating for the album though: 7/10.

On the other hand, The Roots’ new album How I Got Over is estimated for a 35k-40k total.

I knew he wouldn't disappoint....

Two great weeks for sales in a row!

YM8

YM8

I guess well never get to see another Carter III with 1 million copies the first week

Crazytowel

I think it'll do more than Relapse did! I'm so chuffed for him, it's a great album! He's stepped his game up in just a year!

Swaggie

Damn for the Roots though.

zzmyth

I think he will be arounf 700K... The hype around his next singles is almost bigger than his first one....

Ivan_brit

i Think that this would be arround 700k !!!

Яeo.

I wanted him to open with 1M+

I think he'll open 800k. Let's stay on the level of reality. As much as I love Eminem, 1 million will be really mind-blowing especially in this ''music-crisis'' era.

The music business is in a crisis right now, if he'll actually get those 1M+, I will be shocked!

Um, NO! It won't do that much over the projections. You guys should be content with these numbers, which is awfully a lot for this era.

The market has changed , it's almost impossible to sell 1 million copies in a week now.

I was expecting over 750k, but 615k is obviously pretty amazing.

BeamMeUp

Nope, he'll sell more. A lot more, TRUST!!

He would probably sell a million if it was Christmas time.

Eminem is getting those sales!

People are still buying music RIAA. Your music just mostly sucks most of the time. Em + Drake... should be over 1 million albums across 2 weeks sold just on opening numbers.
