All Eyez On Me was certified 9X platinum in 1998. It's been almost 5 years. I'm pretty sure it has sold 500,000 or a million copies since then. It's one of the most popular albums ever. I have even bought it twice since that time due to damages and theft.

Yep....

The way that album still sells today is scary. Its been out for 7 years, and its STILL on the charts today [I think its total chart time to date is over 350 weeks]......there is no way that album is still only at 9 million......Greatest Hits, Makaveli, and Me Against The World still sell like hotcakes too.

bone's number's acording to soundscan  is


creepin on ah come up-2.5 shipped and 1.87 sold
e. 1999 eternal- shipped 9  and sold  6.3
art of war-shipped 3.7 (or 7.4 million ) sold 2.1 (or 4.2)
resurection-shipped roughly 2.5 million sold only 1.2
the new one shipped 700,000 hasn't sold gold yet


this is from warehouse music's alltime list that they have up at the store facts sheet, i trust an establishment with no motives on promoting a bias towards a group


then pac is 33.6 or somthing (if you count his double albums as 2 units)

eminem- jome's were right

also remember folks record company's lie about sold cd's........cd's you see on the shelf count as a 'bought' unit sometimes, in a way they're right becuase company's buy straight from distributors (for like 6 bucks mind you) THEN resale them


soundscan is a recorder of units that were resold, so i trust those figures more than some record exec at a message board




plus i don't know why people get so up in arms about sales.......a good albums is  a good album whether it sales 10 billion or 10 thousand


bone might be the best selling rap group but the majority of their catelouge is trash

Kaidy:
Pac is easily over 10 mill with AEOM. Shit, if you read Billboard magazine every week, Pac always has like 3 or 4 albums in the top selling back catalog albums. It's crazy how that shit still sells after 6-7 years

D.R.E.-Dogg:
in my oppinion it's wrong to count double cds x2

it's still one album

and i don't say this cause I don't want pac on no.1 (I don't hate him or shit, just think he's overrated as fuck)
I don't give a fuck about sales anyway since they don't mean shit and wit all the Pac dickrydin, and putting him up (just have a look at polls like best freestyler lol) and fans that don't even know shit bout him (thinkin he was biggest G ever n shit) these numbers are worth even less.
