Theres not a lot of certainty in the music world. You can be on top of the charts one week and plummet the next. One artist that has managed to maintain his sales peak is Eminem. The Detroit artist climbs back into the number one spot with his latest album, Recovery. Eminem sells 130,810 copies this week bringing his total sales for this album to 2,129,750 and pushing him to double platinum. Em is followed by Rick Ross, who falls from six to eight with his new album, Teflon Don. (Side note .just listened to the album its cool but I do have a serious question. Arent MC Hammer and B.M.F pretty much the same song? Am I super late on this observation? Just wondering )
