Re: Tha CarterIV Vs. Recovery Sales (Prediction)

Eminem is the highest selling rapper of ALL TIME
Eminem holds the records for the most amount of albums sold first week in rap HISTORY
Recovery has already outold Carter 3 in the US AND worldwide in one year

There's no way possible Wayne will outsell Eminem first week

Thats the only thing Wayne has a chance of beating Em at. The first week sales. Rest is impossible

Re: Tha CarterIV Vs. Recovery Sales (Prediction)

I think Wayne can beat Ems first week, but not overall.
Remember that Eminem only had one single (Not Afraid) before he released his album. And Not Afraid didn't even have a music video by then. Imagene if Em had made a video for Not Afraid and then had Love The Way You Lie as his 2 single before the album dropped. He would have done a milli.

I hope Waynes 2 single is more radio friendly and cachy.

Btw, here is Ems sales to fa in the US:

Regardless of the numbers. Wayne should make C4 a solid album musically. At least he has something to fall back on. I dont think hes gonna gamble with C4 like he did with C3 and release lot of mainstream tracks. A bit like MBDTF.

I couldn't agree more! I hope he does that with CIV. With CIII he was trying to get his popularity up, but in 2011 he'll sell just off of being Lil' Wayne. We need a solid album and I think we're gonna get it.

Re: Tha CarterIV Vs. Recovery Sales (Prediction)

Em had like 5.3 million sales when I looked it up several months ago. CIV won't even see that.

Re: Tha CarterIV Vs. Recovery Sales (Prediction)
