This thread is about how he sold 1 mil in 1 day.

It's really nothing out of the ordinary though. Britney Spear's second album went plat in a day. Limp Bizkit's "Chocolate Starfish and the Hotdog-Flavored Water" did it too.

At billboard.com it says 10 mil Diamond. Just look at the bottom ot the Top 100 chart. So that is done. More power to Kanye and hope it does well.

The album also cemented Biggie's legacy as one of the all time greats in the hip hop genre. It was certified 10 times platinum (diamond) approximately two years after its release, making it the highest selling rap album of all time.


I was wrong about it going 20 somethin mil...but he still went diamond

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eminem#Albums_and_EPs

The Marshall Mathers LP (2000) #1 US (8 weeks) (9X Platinum); #1 UK (6X Platinum) - 17 million worldwide

And again I was wrong about MMLP going 30...but these stats were made most likely 2002 or 2003...so think about how many more sales its gotten since then...maybe not a lot but it still adds on

either way they both went diamond

Goodnight
peace
