Tupac, jay z, maybe lil Wayne are the rappers that would follow Eminem in sales but none are close I believe
can you please update total CPSC of all these albums only for US and not worldwide? thanks
On RIAA they show his album sales to be 46.5 million but here they show 97 million. Which one is correct??
This is a surprise but a welcome one! Eminem’s success is incredible, out of albums in 2020 what rank does misic to be murdered by stand?
Why are Eminem’s US sales so different to his soundscan numbers?
He’s around 47m or so on soundscan but has 67m sales in the US.

what proportion of these is club sales and what leads to the other differences?
thank you again as always for the clarifications
Hi obro!
It's difficult to tell with precision as many albums are close but realistically about #15-16.
Hi Rodolfo!
Drake will close the round of top current sellers updates, then Deep Purple will be published. Researches about them are already ongoing.
Hi Fanofpop!
His current Soundscan total is more like 49.2 million up to date. Part of the gap is explained by club sales is about 4.5 million. The thing with the Soundscan figure, is that it doesn't include the 8 Mile Soundtrack, the pair of D12 albums, Bad Meet Evils project, Eminem Presents: The Re-Up and Shady XV. Combined these records sold well over 12 million. Then you need to add over 1 million video sales.
Hi Ameer suhail!
All numbers are always entirely reviewed thanks to new information, which can lead to increases as well as decreases. I would say a 10k gap on a 10m seller means numbers are accurate enough 😉
Thank you for the clarification. I didn’t realise his catalog sold so well.
Also I didn’t know about the soundtrack stuff.
I love M&M he is a brilliant and unique artist but you can’t say who will enter or be in the top 10 general #SinatraIsDoneMostEnduringArtistEver especially when acknowledging Tony Bennett on his 70 th anniversary. Sinatra is 83 years on the charts 400 times between singles ( #2) and albums #2 in total number 249/ and 100! On the jazz billboard chart now at number 1 for 93 weeks !! Please do the most important single figure ever music and films combined ( career triple the length of Presley and more relevant now then ever). Everyone from Rock and hip hop are doing homages and tribute albums , Dylan and Stewart built new careers on Frank and Bublé as well! Sinatra should be on any list to be seriously respected , thank you ( you have been postponing it for 5 years but after Elvis you should be ready ( 3 years ago !!Great web site and work
