Early Industry projection: MMLP2 700k

[UofLCard]

What were the early projections for Recovery?

Less than what it sold.

Initially, it was projected to sell ~500k (Billboard).

"Eminem's "Recovery" makes a likely bow at No. 1 with more than 500,000"

I'm thinking 650-700K.

Berzerk appears to be more successful than We Made You, but not as big as Not Afraid was. So I'm thinking somewhere between Relapse and Recovery numbers.

I don't get you sometimes .. Yes, Recovery sold that much because of not afraid and the earyl leak of that shitty rihanna track. BUT, you forget that he has got a massive amount of fans since. And don't forget about Survival. There is a reason they dropped that song and it's not only to promote cod. Em knows that this album won't be that commercial, so he dropped a song for the fb/twitter/youtube fans that don't know any better and think that Survival will be on the official album(not including bonus).

If those early predictions are true, just wait for Em to do interviews and for him to drop the survival video and maybe do the cypher and drop a second single

nigga stfu the person you quoted was spot on
