For a fourth consecutive week, the latest album from Eminem, Recovery, throne without competition at the top of the popular Billboard 200.
This is the first time since the release of the first disc Susan Boyle an artist manages to put in as many weeks ahead.
To see the sales figures of last week, it is reasonable to wonder how long this new album from Eminem remain in first place, he whose biggest threat will come next week the new disc Avenged Sevenfold, Nightmare, or two weeks the album The Remix of Lady Gaga, along with Arcade Fire The Suburbs, which despite its critical success, remains an indie.
In addition to the rapper from Detroit, his play in duet with Rihanna, Love the Way You Lie, managed to dislodge the success of Katy Perry Gurl California, the top of the Billboard Hot 100 singles.
The closest pursuer at Eminem’s albums, Korn Korn III, has passed that 63,000 copies against the 195,000 sold Recovery.
Ominous sign for artists, album sales dropped 23% over the same period last year.
