ONE-DAY SALES: EMINEM ROLLS ON, AS DO DESTINY’S CHILD, LIL’ JON    
Clay, Snoop Also Debut in a Crowded Field

November 17, 2004

After a 737k three-day #1 performance, what’ll Eminem do for an Encore?

At this point, it looks like he’ll sell even more records this week. According to early reports from national accounts, Encore (Shady/Interscope) should move another 750k or so this week. Is 800k out of the question? We’ll have to wait and see, but at any rate, the album will have done upwards of 1.5 million in its first 10 days and is a lock for a second week at #1

Meanwhile, Destiny’s Child’s Destiny Fulfilled (Columbia) looked a little soft over the weekend and charted yesterday at #24 on 53k in sales after some retailers broke its scheduled street date of 11/15, but the album has bounced back in a big way. Indeed, early reports indicate it should sell over 400k for the week and could potentially have a shot at 500k. That’ll do for #2.

And then there’s Lil’ Jon and the Eastside Boyz’ Crunk Juice (TVT), which came on the chart yesterday at #36 on almost 35k in sales following that wacky street-date-breakin’ weekend. That was just a taste, apparently, as projections now have the album selling over 350k this week. That should be good for another skit on Chapelle’s Show, as well as the #3 slot on next week’s chart.

Hitting the streets yesterday, Clay Aiken’s Merry Christmas with Love (RCA/RMG) should sell well over 200k for the week, and could trend up, depending on whether all the “Claymates” came out on the first day, which saw huge sales in Aiken’s native North Carolina. Will this one grow as we approach Christmas?

Also streeting yesterday was Snoop Dogg’s R&G: Rhythm & Gangsta (Geffen), which pundits had seen headed for a 400k first week. At this point, the album looks like it will some in well shy of that mark, at under 200k.

Meanwhile, Chingy’s Powerballin’ (Capitol) is also a little soft, with early reports indicating a first full week of over 100k, with a shot at 125k, after weekend leaks moved about 10k.

Also of note is the four-disc Beatles box set, which lists for $69 and most are selling for around $50: Projections show the set's poised to sell around 60-70k for the week. That’s in the neighborhood of a $3 million gross for one week. Wow.
Next week, it’s all about U2’s How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb (Interscope) as we head into one of the biggest sales weeks of the year: Turkey Day.

I knew that shit didn't go double platinum.  Em's pre-orders were like quadruple platinum and that made no sense either.  Maybe pre-order means how many they shipped to the stores.  But yeah... 2 million sold, no way.  In the future he'll proabably hit 2 million, but not anytime soon.

Maybe Avalanche is right and it has been changed to over 400k because i HIGHLY doubt that its only going to sell 200k because it's been geetin so much promotion and hype so the 400k sounds more like the realistic number.

They actually meant snoop was 2x platinum because thats how many albums have been shipped to stores so he will be certified 2x platinum whether or not he actually sells 2 million.

How could you possibly think that he was already 2 times platinium?  It doesn't make sense at all.

They actually meant snoop was 2x platinum because thats how many albums have been shipped to stores so he will be certified 2x platinum whether or not he actually sells 2 million.

No

Oh he's still gonna hit platinum easily, theres no doubt about that one, once he releases the lil jon song or the one with JT as a single he's guranteed platinum.

Ya, thanks for telling us that Tom, we'll remember when Snoop hits platinum!  Snoop has done something with this album he has failed to do since Da Game is to Be Sold, and that is release the right song as the first single.  Finally!  No way this doesnt go platinum, althought the chance of it going 2 times plat in one week was non existrent and anyone who believed that is plain stupid(no offense, but seriously!).......peace

I aint saying SNoop isn't going to go platinum..im saying the damn 2 million pre orders means how many albums were shipped..not how many albums were reserved by ppl

and teecee is right, no way would snoop ever sell 2mil in one week...em can barely do those numbers

200k in the first week still means that he's set to go at least platinum in the future.

They said that he will eventually sell 400k but was during that time under 200k. I think he's over 200k now. He won't sell less then 400k, because non of his album sold less than 400k first week.

Paid The Cost barely sold 100,000 the first week if I recall....That album was struggling until he dropped Beautiful.

Yep. That one sold around 175k first week and eventually went platinum once he dropped bitch please as his second single, but all his other albums have sold at least around 400k first week and i'm sure this one will too because he actually chose a good first single for this oen cause it's blowing the fuck up.

Paid Tha Cost sold about 175,000 its first week and eventually went on to sell about 1.2 million thanks to Beautiful...I think this album will definitely sell over 200,000 the first week, probably not 400 but maybe around 250-300,000 cause the single is really blowing up all over...Snoop definitely has a shot at 2X plat with this release...
