It's beneath me to engage in a discussion with someone who has never heard of equivalent album sales by Paul McCartney (425M Beatles, 113M solo), Phil Collins (109M Genesis, 153M solo), Madonna (249M), etc. There is nothing more to say about your post.
At 6-th place is "The Marshall Matters LP 2" from 2013 . Sorry , I made a mistake .
I wrote, "Be fair to every artist", not just Eminem. If you cannot update weekly or monthly, why you label the list as daily update. All you and your team do is downvote comments which say against your hypocrisy. I wish your team spend more time for researching and giving genuine data than arguing with fans and downvoting their comments. Your statement regarding Eminem in your last comment clearly shows you people not interested to update his album sales. And what about removing the album sales numbers who already added to TES. People will won't value your list because these are proofs that it is just wrong info.
Firstly, this is not my site, because I'm not part of the ChartMasters team. I'm just a user with a clear opinion.
Secondly, ChartMasters is fair to all artists. Every artist's streaming sales are updated as good as daily, while his physical sales are updated whenever his complete sales are re-analyzed. You should know the difference in handling between streaming and physical sales, when you read within this site, but especially, when you're up commenting here while infamously accusing the runners of being biased towards certain artists.
Every artist here is treated equally.
but who listens Madonna and Phil Collins theese days? Also Paul Mccartney is not a solo artist from his success
I'm sure you could exclude Lennon tracks and he'd still be more successful than Eminem. Should we also exclude all Eminem tracks he didn't write, perform, produce and complete, solely on his own? Obviously no, so why should it matter where McCartney's success is derived from.
And millions of people quite clearly still listen to Madonna and Collins.
This comment itself is the proof that this site is biased towards some artists. I hope people won't take their list seriously anymore. Eminem's actual album sales was 220 plus millions as confirmed by Dre two years ago. Still there is no updates, just unfair. They won't since from the above comment their respect towards eminem is evident.
What is supposed to be biased about Martin's comment if he rightly claims that artists who have been successful for decades are still being heard?
And you're not seriously saying that Dr. Dre is a reliable source for Eminem's actual sales? On the one hand, Dr. Dre is Eminem's good buddy and, on the other hand, he is also involved in Eminem's releases as co-writer, -performer and -producer and therefore, Dr. Dre is part of Eminem's success. So of course Dr. Dre – like Eminem's management, fan clubs and the artist himself – will always make Eminem's success look greater than it actually is.
Apart from that I have already realized that it is pointless to argue with a deluded fan like you. I don't mind if you believe whatever you want, even that Eminem sold 600M albums if that makes you happy. But fanboy outpourings certainly have nothing to do with a realistic assessment/debate.
Reality is you people are bunch of fanboys of some artists. No people will believe your list as it is evident from all your comments the favourism you show. Dr Dre is reliable than Chartmasters since he has the right sources. Your list is nowhere near reality since firstly you are not updating daily, secondly you are removing already updated sales, thirdly regularly updating data for only some artists. Yes it is pointless to argue with a deluded fan but that deluded fan is you. Eminem is still a top selling artist but no change in Chartmasters data and their team speaking for their favourite artists against Eminem and Dre.
Well, if that's how you read it, you obviously can't understand written English or just choose to find hidden meanings in things, that aren't even there.
It's got absolutely nothing to do with respect or lack of it towards Eminem, the lack of respect is for idiotic comments and points of view, like yours.
I don't care what you say but it's the actions behind them that proves your bias. I asked about the lack of updation and removal of album sales figures in your list. Moreover, when a legend like Dre who has reliable source speaks about album sales, you people don't have the respect to acknowledge him but speak against him.
What is Dre's reliable source, what is his breakdown of Eminems sales, where did he get his info and above all, where does his legendary status for providing sales figures to the public come from. As I've never seen him listed anywhere as being legendary in the world of music sales. Just being a legendary music artists/producer etc, does not make or mean you are a music sales guru.
And if you don't care what we say, why even bother communicating with me or anyone on here. Surely it's futile for you, if you think we are all just full of shit, fan boys!
I would rather believe Dre than some random fanboys list. Dre owns the music label and it is just hilarious people here telling he won't be able to know his products sales numbers. So you are implying that Dre was lying when he told album sales was over 220 millions. I, just a fanboy, never said anything bad about a single artist listed by you but you people are unbelievable.
Record labels always add extra millions. That's being said he just be around 220 million. And same logic is applied to every artist. Cm is quite accurate and close to most label reports
I like how you keep calling me/us fanboys, it's ironically funny. The only person in this discussion, displaying fanboy behaviour, is yourself.
You are accepting the word of somebody, wholly based on who that person is. You have not dissected what he said, you have not analysed what he said, you've not tried to breakdown what he said. You have merely accepted what he said, because it was him that said it. He could be telling you anything and you don't really know what he's telling you, you're just believing him, because it's him.
That sounds like a fanboy to me, what do you think? It would seem some people just want to hear the "truth" and others actually want to try and find it out.
I was mainly rebutting or poking fun at the fact he is actually calling me/us fan boys lol
You obviously lack logic if you think i am a fan of dre and so believes him. Dre owns the label, it's better to believe him than some people who are lazy to research for their work. It's not just Dre, many media reports are there confirming over 220 million album sales. And what's about your analysis and breakdown. Adding album sales and removing it, regularly updating some artists and ignoring others, your analysis doesn't reflect on Eminem's album sales while he is still one of the most selling, most streamed artists.
My point had nothing to do with you being a fan of either Eminem or Dr Dre, it was about displaying fan boy behaviour, such as, just taking somenes word for something, just because of who they are, not necessarily because you know it's true.
I already answered, it's not just Dre, many media reported about album sales crossing 220 million. It was 2-3 years ago, still your eas just 212 million, this is a joke. If your team had the same enthusiasm reporting album sales of Phil Collins or Madonna for Eminem's, he would have achieved around 250 million album sales in your list, no cap. I hope an official site will provide the album sales data in future and be fair to every artist.
So what if lots of media outlets posted it, they probably all picked up on what he said and just ran with it. We see this throughout history, labels etc releasing ambiguous or false info, from the Beatles and Presley 1 Billion claims, to Michael Jacksons 750m, Back in Black 50m, Led Zeppelin 300m, all overstated and taken by various media outlets and regurgitated.
Media was reporting before Dre said it. And Elvis 1 billion sales is for the records, so you are now saying that guinness records is also wrong lol. I hope you research more instead of claiming everything you say is correct.
High school Taylor fans who broke up with their boyfriends are crowded here. ,The level of comments is a disgrace.
