Eminem's "The Marshall Mathers LP 2" dips from #19 to #20 in its 19th week. The album tops the 2 million mark in U.S. sales this week. It's Eminem's eighth consecutive album to top the 2 million mark.

That's his entire output, which consists of seven studio albums and his 2004 hits compilation, "Curtain Call: Greatest Hits." Eminem's best-selling album is his 2000 blockbuster, "The Marshall Mathers LP" (10,834,000). His poorest-selling album (excluding the current release, which is far from over) is 2009's "Relapse" (2,363,000).

So, with the new numbers he should have passed Geroge Strait in the US all-time Soundscan era artists list.
Just under 50M copies scanned i guess. He would be the 6th best seller of the SS era.

Eminem Marks Sales, Hot 100 Milestones

By Gary Trust & Keith Caulfield | March 21, 2014

It's a monster week for rap god Eminem, who scores two significant sales feats and marks a milestone on the Billboard Hot 100.

SALES SURGE

Eminem's latest album reaches a notable threshold, while his cumulative sales grow ever larger.

"The Marshall Mathers LP 2" sold another 13,000 copies in the week ending March 16, according to Nielsen SoundScan, upping its cumulative total past 2 million (2.004 million, to be exact). All of Eminem's albums have now each sold more than 2 million, led by the first "The Marshall Mathers LP" (released in 2000), at 10.8 million. (He's also one of only two acts with two 10-million sellers since SoundScan began tracking sales in 1991. The other: Backstreet Boys. 2002's "The Eminem Show" is Eminem's other title to pass 10 million, having sold 10.3 million.)

Thanks to the continued sales of "The Marshall Mathers LP 2," and Eminem's catalog of albums, in general, his cumulative album sales have grown to 44.91 million. He's now overtaken country king George Strait (44.89 million) to become the second-best-selling male artist of the SoundScan era. (Notably, of course, Strait's career predates the inception of SoundScan data.)

Among all artists in that nearly 23-year span, Eminem is in sixth place, displacing Strait to No. 7 on the best-selling album artists list. Garth Brooks boasts the most albums sold, with 69.52 million. The Beatles ranks second (65.55 million) and Metallica places third (54.26 million). Mariah Carey (54.24 million) and Celine Dion (52.21 million) round out the top five.

On the Billboard 200 albums chart, Eminem's last seven sets have hit No. 1. He missed the summit only with his debut, 1999's "The Slim Shady LP," which debuted and peaked at No. 2.

NIFTY FIFTY

As his album sales continue to soar, Eminem likewise pads his impressive history on the Hot 100 songs chart.

Eminem logs his landmark 50th Hot 100 hit, as "Headlights," featuring fun.'s Nate Ruess, debuts at No. 86. With the bow, Eminem becomes the seventh rapper to tally at least 50 Hot 100 chart entries. Lil Wayne leads all rappers (and all soloists) with 121 entries, followed by Jay Z (82), Drake (69), Kanye West (61), Ludacris (54) and T.I. (53).

"Headlights" is the sixth song from "The Marshall Mathers LP 2" to hit the Hot 100. "Berzerk" peaked at its No. 3 start in September and was followed by "Survival" (No. 16); "Rap God" (No. 7); "The Monster," featuring Rihanna (four weeks at No. 1); and "Beautiful Pain," featuring Sia (No. 99). ("Headlights" is the third single promoted to pop radio. It rises 40-33 on the Mainstrean Top 40 airplay chart, where "Berzerk" peaked at No. 18 and "The Monster" reigned for five weeks.)

Of Eminem's 50 Hot 100 entries, 17 have reached the top 10, with five rising all the way to No. 1: "Lose Yourself" (12 weeks on top, 2002-03); "Crack a Bottle," with Dr. Dre and 50 Cent (one, 2009); "Not Afraid" (one, 2010); and "Love the Way You Lie" (seven weeks, 2010) and "The Monster," both featuring Rihanna.

With five No. 1s each, Eminem, Diddy and Ludacris share the record for the most Hot 100 leaders among rappers.

Chart Watch: Two Movie Songs In Top 5
By Paul Grein, Yahoo Music

As promised, here's the news about "Lose Yourself." The hip-hop anthem tops the 6 million mark in digital sales this week. The song was released in October 2002, six months before the opening of the iTunes store. So the fact that it has achieved this tremendous sales tally is remarkable. Only one other song that was released prior to 2007 has sold 6 million digital copies. That's Journey's 1981 hit "Don't Stop Believin'," which has sold 6,041,000 copies.

On March 23, 2003, "Lose Yourself" became the first hip-hop song to win an Academy Award for Original Song. Eminem didn't appear on the telecast, either to perform or pick up his Oscar. (He had performed the song on the Grammys exactly one month earlier—an appearance that probably clinched his Oscar win.)

It shall surpass LTWYL in years to come & shall forever remain as the biggest hit Eminem has ever made.
