how many copies did katy perry's album sale?

[D-Nice]

Katy Perry is a new artist....and doing better than eminem who has been out for 14 years

I know you don't really believe that do you? Because the numbers will say otherwise, by a wide margin

[Quadruple OG]

Katy Perry is a new artist....and doing better than eminem who has been out for 14 years

Wrong on both parts

[Smackdog]

katy perry came out in 2008 and eminem came out in 1997.....so yeah compared to eminem she is a new artist...


and she got more sales than him......for the time that shes been out....

[Jimmy H.]

katy perry came out in 2008 and eminem came out in 1997.....so yeah compared to eminem she is a new artist...


and she got more sales than him......for the time that shes been out....

But again, isn't that how it should be?

And Em made his major label debut in 1999.

http://www.mediatraffic.de/albums.htm

Katy's last album has sold 2 million worldwide, Em's sold 4 million just in the US

[Adriano]

Again: her album sold almost 4 million worldwide + over 30 million single sales

[Smackdog]

the singles count for alot........eminem doesn.t sell singles hardly.........


so now everyone can see eminem is just hype...and not the real deal

[K.Dub]

*note: she is from santa barbra, california so calm down you superthugs.

[HighEyeCue]

Again: her album sold almost 4 million worldwide + over 30 million single sales

the charts say otherwise

so now everyone can see eminem is just hype...and not the real deal

with that logic Flo-Rida and Soulja Boy may be the GOATs

[papa-smurf]

I'm happy 4 her.she a cali girl.a lot of people in cai is dumb.they try 2 reject any thing thasnot gangsta.cali need all type of music & katy perry rep cali correct.she rep better then a lot of cali rappers

[Hood Crawler]

Katy Perry a lot hotter than Eminem tho. Ha!

[Native American]

Me: yo, gangsterboogy, lets go smoke a blunt with some homies.

GB: Okie-Dokie !

Me: Dont say Okie-Dokie !!

GB: *sigh

-10mins later-

Me: everyone this is gansterboogy.....

(everyone) Hey,whats up...etc

Me: So whats up everyone ready for some Football ?!?

(everyone else but GB) hell yeah, Go Packers, Go Broncos, Go Raiders,...etc

GB: how many copies did katy perry's album sale?

(everyone) *quite*

Me: WTF !...

GB: Come on GangsterZzz, she is from santa barbra, california. you know West Side, you know 4 fingers up 2 twisted in the middle
(demonstrates) like this.....wait, ugh......ouch !  nvm......but listen up

First there was "California Gurls" with Snoop, shit got overplayed so I figured that was it for her album.  But while that single was all over urban radio (or what's left of it) "Teenage Dream" was climbing the pop charts and killing it. Then she drops "Firework"...shit was MASSIVE! All over radio, tv, movie trailers, etc. Like this is one of those songs you literally can't avoid. Lately I've been hearing "E.T." with Kanye and I actually like this one. And "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" seems to be every girls song of the summer.


LMAO, u know all this shit about her music but you dont know anything about the actual album ?!? typical, damn, u even know where she's from !....
