Grammy-winning rapper Eminem's Recovery will reportedly sell up to 615,000 copies in its first-week on store shelves.
Based on one-day estimates, Em will easily go gold after his first seven days.
Offering conclusive proof that Marshall still matters, Eminem'saptly named Recovery will score the year's highest sales debut. Look for a total of between 590-615k for the Shady/Aftermath/Interscope album, easily beating Sade's 503k back in February. It could also beat his last album, Relapse, which sold 608k in its first week in May '09. (Hits Daily Double)
Radio personality DJ Whoo Kid recently predicted Em would out-sell Drake's Thank Me Later debut.
"Will Drake sell 500k the first week?"
"predictions --- drake -----350-420k first week"
"EMinem ---- - 650-700k first week." (DJ Whoo Kid's Twitter)
Earlier this month, Fat Joe gave his opinion of Em's latest effort.
"That sh*t's crazy," Joe said in an interview. "That sh*t with him and [Lil] Wayne, [track] number two ['Talkin' 2 Myself']. All that sh*t, man. That n*gga spittin'. Hard...I thought I wasn't gonna like it, cause n*ggas was sayin', Yo, it's rock, and this and that,' but that sh*t was hard. I was expecting just more regular hip-hop type sh*t. You know what I'm sayin'? It was more like Just Blaze-[produced] rock sh*t...I like that sh*t. A lot. I can't lie to you...I think he's back to where he once was...For real. I think lyrically, he's back to where he was. That's what I got from the album."
