Why does everyone think they can play Arenas now?
He's gonna regret it if all them seats aren't filled. It costs a lot to do arenas
Em still putting up those numbers is crazy
Wonder how much HOV would do today
200-250k with promo
Eminem being Eminem. No one should be surprised at the numbers.
Don't do this. This is speaking down on how significant it is that he's still putting up these numbers 28 years into his career when none of his peers come close. He should be given a lot of credit for these numbers. It's probably only like 4 or 5 rappers alive right now who could drop and do these numbers and he's (still) one of them. That's incredible.
It will be significantly lower because of the lack of physicals.
MTBMB released at a time when Billboard was still allowing pre-orders of physicals to count towards first week sales. Since the rule change, they no longer count until the week that they actually ship.
All of the Death of Slim Shady physicals don’t start shipping until September/October, so all of those physical pre-order will not count towards the first week numbers.
MTBMB did 117K with physical pre-orders included. That number should be significantly lower without that this time.
Nope
It might literally sell 279k like MTBMB lol
Eminem has to be the goat when it comes to longevity i dont think anyone is on his level
Does Em have physical copies?
No his physicals dont ship til Sept / Oct
I expect him to have more pure digital sales than most rappers though. His fan base (and Nicki's) seem to actually support by purchase digitally.

Not her not knowing releasing 20 versions will cause the prediction to increase 😭

"Of the 252,000 copies “Utopia” sold in album form, 111,000 were digital downloads, 63,000 were CDs and 79,000 were vinyl LPs"
remember he had the first edition digital album

They do the same thing with Drake's achievements. Artists still putting up massive commercial numbers with their music 10+ years into their careers isn't the norm. That's the exception. Most mainstream music careers don't last more than 5 years.
Absolutely terrific numbers for Em. Wow. He has had such a long lasting and strong hold on the culture.

Who she talking about?
Not a big Em fan, but topping album charts for a quarter century is impressive.
