Eminem still sits at the top of the charts this week, his 6th album, RECOVERY, is on its second week at number one on the billboard top 200 album charts. Eminem moved 313,000 copies of his album this week, bringing the total, in the two weeks it has spent in stores, to 1,058,000; that means eminem already has a platinum plague for his lattest effort. He sold 523,000 copies worldwide this week ; if you add that to his 1,098,00 copies, that is 1,621,000 copies in 2 weeks globally. It is such a shame that with all this numbers, which would result to more money for him, he is still the must unhappy, unstable, emotionally disturbed rapper that i know.
Next on the charts this week is DRAKE's debut effort, "thank me later", which sold 105,000 copies this week, bringing the total to 709,000. The numbers are impressive for the climtae of hiphop right now, when a lot of rappers are struggling to sell 300,000 copies(except from jay-z, lil wayne, kanye west, young jeezy, and maybe GAME). But i still expected more from his album than this. He has as much buzz as when 50 cent dropped, and 50 sold over 1.6mill in 2 weeks; THE GAME didn't have as much buzz as drake had, and he still sold a million copies in 3 weeks. So for drake to be on his third week in stores, and still about 300k from platinum, then that isn't impressive enough for him. I just hope he recoups all that has been spent on his promotion so far.
Drake and his other "young money" colleagues have finally gone gold with their WE ARE YOUNG MONEY debut. The album sold 3,800 copies this week, bringing the total to 500 copies sold so far. And the latest album(how i got over) from THE ROOTS sold 21,000 copies this week, bringing their total in 2 weeks to 72k
