Eminem's biggest sales since 2008

The Philippine Star

NEW YORK (AP) — Eminem’s Recovery is going quite well. The rapper’s CD sold 741,000 in its first week of release, making it the best debut of the year.

The figures were released by Eminem’s record label, Interscope last Tuesday and confirmed by Nielsen SoundScan. It’s actually the best album debut since October 2008, when AC/DC’s Black Ice topped the charts with sales of 784,000.

Eminem released the CD Relapse last year, but Recovery has gotten much better reviews.

The 37-year-old rapper was named the Best-selling Artist of the Last Decade by Billboard.
