YOUR MEMORIAL DAY WEAKEND CHART PREVIEW: Let’s cut to the chase, kiddies, cuz we’re all so antsy to get the hell outta Dodge, and so are you. The big story, obviously, is Eminem, whose appeal remains strong enough to get him the year’s biggest debut at somewhere between 600k and 630k

500k on week 1 for a new Em album after 4 years of no new Em music = a flop


Even I, who predicted the album would bottom out at 2 platinum almost 3, expected it to debut with a million in the first week.

Surely this cannot be true? Interscope i expect if they read this will quickly purchase a 100-200k extra copies!  ;D

Seriously, i expect dude to be coming close to a million first week. If dude sells anything under 700k first week = automatic flop, no other way around it.

By the way, i dont know how they can read into a whole weeks sales based off one days sales...give it a few more days like i said...we could get interscope suddenly shipping out a few hundred thousand in a day all of a sudden which could drastically change things!

Well Hits makes estimates on sales. They are usually 10-20k within the the actual number of albums sold. But yeah I agree, they did not even say Wayne's was projected to sell a mill and it did.
 

Action!

Oh how the times have changed
Cool breeze; I'm hopping out of new Beams
My outfit ran me a few G's but none of that will matter if you leave
I used to be an Adam with two Eves and shawtys automatically do me
Excuse me, all that happened before you doesn't matter
I'm a vision of the future climbing the success ladder

they have spent a shitload promoting this so i woulda thought less than a mill would be considered a failure from jimmy.

This guy aint no crip, and I'm 100% sure on that because he doesn't type like a crip, I know crips, and that fool is not a crip.

I assume this means things won't be looking good for Detox or the Reformation ... not that Bishop's stance role was looking good lately anyways but ... damn ...

Im sure this will sell more than 500k. Like D-nice said, sometimes they make mistakes. If eminem sells only 500k, it'll be a flop considering the crazy promotion this has had. I can honestly say, this has had some of the ebst promotion ive seen in a minute for a hiphop act. I dont see it doing anything less than 700k. However if he does fail, hopefully they drop a different type of single for relapse 2 and go for a better vibe. They played loose yourself yesterday when i was out and i forgot how good that shit was.
