mmm yes,it could be.he likes to do new things,but really I can´t imagine right now releasing a funny song as a first single for axample.
I'm really curious how will be the new album and the collaborations that there will be...


You know, it doesn't matter if the album will sell 2 millons, if it will be good or not, funny or not, people on this board will say...you know what they will say :facepalm

Yes, could be. He won't do the mistake to go back and release a funny song. I think he learned the lesson and will continue with his Recovery strategy.

You do realize he changes his style on every album

Sure, but you think on his next project there will be such a big change like between Relapse and Recovery? Hm ...

You can think, I'm crazy and too optimistic - maybe even the 1.5 millie mark could be possible.

I don´t think he can. Nobody can. Sales are very low these days and even if he did his best album, he still would not reach 1 mil..

Plus, surely aren't the first-week sales of the album mostly dependent on the single(s) that come before the album release and the previous album.

I meant person in rap, but whatever.. she is a country-pop singer, she does music for the masses.

Em could. If he would go on a tour now, so that people get crazy about him again. And then, a new album with just giving a little fuck about promoting it. And there you go.

i think its possible... but highly unlikely.
like someone said already... sales are low.. the chances of any rapper doing a milli is very slim.
would love to see it happen.. but i gotta vote no. i dont think it will.

Recoveru only had Not Afraid out when the album got released. Imagene if he released LTWYL too before the album release. 1 mill easily'!
I wanted an album so rugged nobody could touch it.
Spent a million a track and went over my budget.
Now how in the fuck am I supposed to get out of debt?
I can't rap anymore, I just murdered the alphabet.

You could have been right, but Em isn't a generic rapper. He is a rapper ruling the mainstream, so that doesn't really matter. There is no difference between him and the popstars. The only one that can fuck with him is Gaga. So either really no one will never ever do a milli or if there will be artists doing it, Em is surely included.
