Eminem’s Recovery (King Me!)

June 30, 2010

This is simply amazing.  Shouts to Em for showing the world that he can still do it without a doubt. For this, we at AKOO crown Eminem A King Of Oneself.

Eminem’s Recovery moved 741,000 units according to Billboard. This will be his 6th straight #1 album.

“Recovery’s” debut week sales surpasses the first week of Eminem’s last set, “Relapse,” which began at No. 1 in 2009 with 608,000. It also beats the opening of 2005’s “Curtain Call: The Hits” which entered at No. 1 with 441,000 in 2005.

Eminem’s new album also wows digitally, as downloads made up 255,000 of its first week. That’s the second-biggest digital week for an album in history. Only Coldplay’s “Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends” notched a larger frame, when it debuted with 288,000 downloads in the summer of 2008.
