Is this meant to be a drag? None of Eminem's peers have their discographies doing these numbers lol.

Encore is underrated

I'm not good with dates but its all about the timing I think that was when trap and drill beats were gaining momentum so it was a refreshing hits at the time, on top of being Ems most definitive conceited statement on his self-proclaimed position in rap everybody wanted to hear if he lived up to it

God damn Em

Thats amazing

Eminem is a monster. Will never be another like this dude

Being certified platinum and eligible for platinum (selling 1M units) are 2 different things.

MTBMB sold 1million units in less than a year from release.

The label just certified it platinum now. It wasn't certified before

It inspired a whole generation of white rappers

Top album sales from 1/1/2020 to 12/17/2020.

MTBMB dropped 1/17/2020. The album sold 1M+ in 11 months. It just didn't get certified until 1.5 years later (today).

Did I trigger some folks in here Excuse me, y'all, pull your draws to the side

Not at all, its just a misconception alot of people have. An album being certified doesn't mean it reached the threshold on that date

The power of being white in America

That’s not the point.

Em is an established artist that’s been in the game for 20+ years, and even he has said that a big part of why he sells astronomically better than everyone else is because he’s white, even when he drops albums as laughably garbage as Revival

you lying if you think him being white isn't a major factor

All....

NF, geazy, russ, jack harlow, post malone.

Being white elevated their perspective sales higher than they would be if they weren't

vanilla ice exists

I agree.

White Trash Party gold

think it's cause it was played in Entourage + it's a pretty fun song lmao

G Eazy is not even that big

These numbers are insane

We gotta acknowledge how insane it is that Till I Collapse has become one of Em’s biggest songs and is 8 times platinum despite never being a single and not really taking off until years after release

Like, all of the sales going towards that 8x platinum wouldn’t have even started being accumulated until the digital download era, and even by then it was multiple years old. Now it’s one of his most streamed. Wild

G eazy has had multiple platinum albums in the past
