Who Sold The Most?

Postby Epidemik » Jun 28th, '08, 22:34

The other day... a buddy of mine told me that Luda has sold more records than any other rapper, comming in second for all performers. (He said elvis was first).

is this true?? luda is good but i wouldnt think he'd be the number one seller.

Luda hasn't even sold that.

I think the one rapper who's sold the most is 50 or Eminem, right? :unsure: Or maybe Tupac was in there...?

yes but let's talk comparison

let's only use the albums when 2pac was alive

6 albums vs 4 albums, not to mention all eyes on me was a double..

so in reality eminem is the best selling rapper... he might not be the highest yet, but eventually he will be if he releases his next album.
