Talk:Eminem albums discography/Archive 1

Worldwide Sales
www.worldwidealbums.net is a reliable source for The Re Up and Relapse. As far as for the eminem show and the marshall mathers lp on those albums pages they say over 20 million and they source it. So i'm just making sure the discography matches one the album page does and vice versa. I'm not just picking numbers out of thin air. Maybe i'm not sourcing right or something but i'm really not trying to vandalize. I'm just trying to get it as specific as possible. The album pages should not say over 20 million when the discography say's 19 Million + it should be 20 Million + if you wanted to be specific. Some may say what's the difference between 19 million + and 20 Million plus but i believe there is a difference. Hopefully this is a good enough explanation. If not then i don't know. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SAUspartan (talk • contribs) 03:05, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Latvian chart numbers
I removed the info on how well some of the singles charted in Lativa. No offense intended to anyone from Latvia, but this is not important information.

Even if it were necessary to add chart numbers from countries besides UK/US, I think other countries with larger markets would come first... Garrettcobb 22:48, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Missing Album
Recently, I came across a song called "The Kidz" by Eminem. When I looked up the lyrics on letssingit it was listed(along with several other songs) under the album title "Off the Wall". I'd like to know why that album isn't listed here.
 * Off The Wall was a bootleg made up of songs that were bonus tracks on singles or albums (as in the case of "The Kids" - it was a bonus track on the Marshall Mathers LP in the UK), songs from other artists that Eminem featured on and leaked tracks that didn't make it onto his albums. I don't think it should be on there as there were no new tracks on that bootleg. Straight From The Lab EP, while also a bootleg, was made up entirely of new tracks so it makes sense that it stays. 86.134.199.92 20:00, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

FACK
I deleted FACK from the list of singles. It's on Curtain Call, but it's not going to be released as a single.86.134.199.92 10:58, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Guest Appearances
Fixed the links to Duets: The Final Chapter and Devil Without a Cause.86.134.199.92 19:15, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
 * there are 2 songs i know that are missing. Number 1): "The Last Hit (Original Version)" by The High & Mighty & Eminem from the album "Eastern Conference All Stars III" (2002 I think) and 2.) "Realest Niggas" performed by Eminem, Notorious B.I.G. & 50 Cent from the "White Chicks" soundtrack (2004) please update the list^^

Other rare tracks?
I think other tracks such as 'Hellbound' should be included, perhaps in a new section, stating where they came from (The Kids could be included in this); to give a comprehensive list. The hellbound H&H remix was on the compilation CD (ie various artists) 'game over'. is that where it came from.. what about the un-remixed version.. does it even exist?.. anyway i'm sure there are many more tracks that arent on any of the albums or bootlegs listed. actually i shall start this but it certainly needs more input.. Also, what about being an honourary memeber of the 'Outsidaz' on their 'Night Life' CD?Bungalowbill 16:35, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

Sales Number
What's up with the fake certifications? Check the friggin' riaa.com searchable database and you'll find his real certifications, such as Encore going 4x Platiunum and The MM LP going 9x. Kajito 22:49, 4 December 2006 (UTC)


 * The riaa does not report on albums 8 years after they come out. The last time they probably reported on one of his albums, it was most likely a platinum certification lower than it currently is.

Removed vandalism
I have removed recent vandalism from this page License2Kill 22:06, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

RIAA Certifications
Please stop changing the official RIAA certifications. Go to RIAA.com and you'll see that Slim Shady LP is 4x, Marshall Mathers LP is 9x, Eminem Show is 8x, Encore is 4x, Curtain Call: The Hits is 2x, 8 Mile is 4x, Devil's Night is 1x, and D12 World is 2x. SlimShady6135 20:26, 3 February 2007 (UTC)


 * The RIAA does not report on albums 5,6,7, or 8 years after they come out. The Slim Shady LP sold over 3 million by the end of 1999, 4,707,000 by mid 2000, and over 5.3 million now. Look in the 8 Mile DVD under biography, it says that The Slim Shady LP has sold over 5 million in the U.S. and over 8 million world wide (which is currently 9 million). The Marshall Mathers LP sold over 8 million by the end of 2000. By late 2001, it's sales figure was 9.4 million. It was certified diamond in 2003. Everybody who knows anything about rap knows that there are 4 rap albums to sell 10 million: Please Hammer Don't Hurt Em', Life After Death, The Marshall Mathers LP, and Speakerboxx/The Love Below. The Eminem Show sold 7.6 million by the end of 2002 and 8.8 million by the end of 2003. I don't know exactly how much it is currently at but I know that an album that has sold 8,885,000 (according to the very reliable Rolling Stone Magazine) by late 2002 has been able to sell a measly 115,000 in over 4 years. Encore sold 4.7 million by mid to late 2005. Almost all reports on Eminem involving his albums, discography, or record sales have clocked Encore at over 5 million. An album doesn't even always have to sell the exact number of millions to be certified that many times platinum. I know that an album (especially an Eminem album) can sell 200 to 300 thousand in nearly 2 years. Devil's Night sold 524,000 copies in it's first week of release. It's common sense that an album that has sold over half a million in one week will sell way more than another half million in the following 6 years. It's at 2.2 million. Go to the billboardcharts.com and you will see that The Re-Up has the platinum symbol next to its name. Plus 925,000 (that's what The Re-Up's current sales figure is) is more than enough to get a platinum certification for shipments of over 1 million copies.

The RIAA certifications only apply to the United States and not the rest of the world. Could anyone find out his FULL total. Its around 65/70 million i believe.


 * The Slim Shady LP has sold 9 million worldwide, The Marshall Mathers LP-21 million, The Eminem Show-20 million, and Encore-12.5 million. Plus Curtain Call's 7 million. That would put him at well over 70 million if all of the hundred thousands were to be counted.

Yes, but it doesn't help to just guess how many times platinum it went worldwide. Either find a source and post it or don't change it at all. SlimShady6135 19:39, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Would someone add that he has sold over 70 million? Refere http://www.mtv.tv/mtv.tv/dynamo/shells/artist_of_the_week.jhtml;jsessionid=GYCT1VPRA0ZFDQFIAIISFE4AVABBEIV0?article=30113358nce (This is also Ref 5 on the main page) I will leave it for somone to place appropriately. Thanks

RIAA does update their figures. For example, Mariah Carey's numbers were updated 3 years ago from albums that were over 16 years old. Therefore, I am going to change the RIAA certifications to their correct certification. We are not going to guess what they will put later on. If we want to add sales numbers, go again and do so, but please do not change the RIAA certification when it has not been certified that yet. Ayumi4u 07:15, 11 April 2007 (UTC)


 * One artist is not enough to argue that the RIAA updates their figures. They might do that every 3 years for Mariah Carey but that's one person. Another thing is that they probably updated her sales figures because she was on the eve of a huge comeback with the Emancipation Of Mimi album. When someone is the center of attention, everybody gets the right info because that person is always on camera and being talked about. If you even read what I typed above then you wouldn't say I was just guessing. The numbers need to be changed. You don't know what it's been certified so far so stop lowering his numbers for your own personal pleasure. 
 * Personal pleasure? Please. You need to keep inflating his numbers. On the RIAA page, it says it is certified 9x PLATINUM. NOT DIAMOND. If we are going to use RIAA certification, then we are going to put the CORRECT CERTIFICATION. You obviously have no idea what you are talking about if you say I don't know what it has been certified. Go their website, http://www.riaa.com. Go to search data base and type in Eminem. You will see that the certifications we will be using are in there, which is 9x platinum, not diamond. Your Mariah Carey arguement can be thrown out for the following reason: they updated her figures about 3 years ago, which is 2 years before her comeback. She was not even close to center of attention then. If you want me to find more artists believe me I can. They've done so with Whitney Houston, The Beatles, etc. I am trying to be neutral, in fact on the Mariah page they've inflated her sales a lot too. Everyone does it. I'm here to put the correct sales. However, if you want to put his CORRECT sold number of cds according to soundscan, you may do so, just put the correct number. Bottom line: he has no diamond albums as of 4/12/07 according to the RIAA, which is what we are using. Ayumi4u 23:46, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

what a lot of people changing the certs don't understand is that an album's RIAA certification does not necessarily reflect actual retail sales. RIAA certification is a service that the artist's record company has to pay for. If Interscope has not applied for new certifications of Eminem's albums recently (and they haven't), retail sales since the last certification will not be reflected. So the current solution, which is to post Soundscan figures (which are more up-to-date) below the RIAA cert, is probably the best way to go. If an album has sold 10 million copies in the U.S. but is only 5x Platinum, that generally just means the album has sold about five million copies since the record label last had it certified. IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT THE ALBUM IS 10X PLATINUM. IT WILL ONLY REACH THAT LEVEL WHEN THE ARTIST'S LABEL APPLIES FOR NEW CERTIFICATIONS. (As an additional note, ukmix.org reports that music club sales in the U.S., which aren't tracked by Soundscan, stand at about 1.5 million. Whether we want to include music club sales where available is another issue, but combined with the Soundscan total of about 10 million, estimated U.S. sales of "Marshall Mathers" stand at about 11.5 million. Visit ukmix.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=21747&start=0 for more information.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.155.209.26 (talk) 17:37, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

From my understanding, records only get a certification if they apply for it (and pay?). So the number of albums sold could easily be over the diamond threshold, with ever being certified diamond. Until a new certification is applied for, it is not diamond certified, but still 9xplatinum, irrespective of actual sales.YobMod 12:30, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
 * THANK YOU. It feels like I'm alone at preventing sales boosting. Do U(knome)?  yes...or no 19:13, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

'''I'm sure Interscope will apply for these certifications once say the eminem show passes 10,000,000 in sales so they can kill two birds with one stone. They probably figure it's not worth the money to do it just for one album. No other hip hop artist is going to claim to sell more than eminem anytime soon. He will have his diamond albums eventually. Be patient people.'''

As it's been said here, to all fanboys, don't start modifying the real RIAA certifications to your own pleasure. MMLP is 9x Platinum and the Eminem Show is 8x. It's possible that the albums have sold more, but that doesn't have anything to do with the certifications anymore then (read above). So you can't say that MMLP is Diamond just if it has sold over 10 million copies if it hasn't been certified as so. Yeah, it sounds weird, but this is a place for official info, fan material can go elsewhere. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Koord (talk • contribs) 18:15, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Exactly. I'm one of the biggest Eminem fanboys out there but I am tired of all the people changing the certifications as well. Both The Marshall Mathers L.P and The Eminem Show will be certified diamond eventually so people just have to be patient. It's just whenever Interscope feels like sending them in to get certified. Eminem will get his diamond albums. I have to believe that once The Eminem Show passes 10 Million (It's at least at 9.75 right now) that they will apply for both. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SAUspartan (talk • contribs) 13:37, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Label
Eminem excluding D12 albums has only released two albums on Shady Records (The Re-up and the 8-mile soundtrack). The Marshall Mathers LP, Slim Shady LP, The Eminem Show, Encore, and Curtain Call have all been Aftermath albums.

Eminem has sold over 65,000,000 albums but when I count it up all on this page it only ads up to 36,000,000

Bootlegs
I think that bootleg albums should be deleted, because they aren't official. Daniil Maslyuk 11:47, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, they're really nothing important. Steppin onto the Scene should be removed also. I have a full discography list of Eminem, and Steppin onto the Scene is one of like ten different albums made from 1988-1992 or something like that. It's really nothing important at all.

Encore Sales
Sales for 2004 were 3,517,097 and 1,385,256 for 2006. Total is 4,902,332 up to 31/12/06. Sales since then will have been less than 5,000 copies per week, otherwise would be featuring on the Soundscan weekly top 200 album sales chart. Last known entry was 28/10/2005 at #191. Therefore for 2007, maximum sales to date would be 130,000 and more likely 50% of this figure to 65,000. Overall marginally under 5 million, but closer to this than other figures quoted. 60.234.242.196 01:04, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Curtain Call Sales
Appears on the top200 for week of 14/04/2007 but does not exist for next closest top200 found on 28/04/07. Was selling approx. 4,500 copies per week at that stage. Maggott2000 02:50, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

Slim Shady and The Marshall Mathers LP
Although forums are not considered a verified source, ukmix.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=43764&highlight= has significant sales data. The Marshall Mathers album it states is certified 9x platinum by RIAA, sold 10,010,000 by Soundscan, and 1,540,000 by BMG Music Club. The BMG figure can be verified here -. Slim Shady has sold 1.2 million via BMG as per same link. Maggott2000 21:19, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
 * How did the person who posted those sales get their information? Soundscan figures aren't even generally available to the public. Spellcast 10:32, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * They are available to anyone who subscribes. But they are not supposed to be posted on the net, and Soundscan normally come down very hard when they find out who did post. Maggott2000 08:21, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

I think the U.S Rap & R&B sections shouldn't be on the list of all of them, because Eminem is an overall heavyweight artist worldwide, and usually artist that aren't THAT big internationally have their own countries more specific single charts on the list. If I'm confusing, let me know.

I have no idea why some of you are against the albums sold being more specific. That's all i'm doing. Also the eminem show has sold 9.75 Million albums, not 9.2 that someone put in. Trust me...I don't inflate numbers. I make them as specific as i can. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SAUspartan (talk • contribs) 17:43, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Unless you add a reliable source, you are inflating them. Do U(knome)?  yes...or no 02:43, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

If an album has sold for example 9,750,000 copies and in the discography states it has sold 9.7 Million nothing is wrong with making it more specific and saying 9.75 Million. That's nopt inflating numbers. Being specific is not inflating numbers. If an album has sold 5,100,000 like the Slim Shady L.P and oin the discography states it's 5 Milliom + there is nothing wrong with making it 5.1 Million on the discography. Same thing with Curtain Call. That has sold 2,975,000 and on the disography it say's 2.9 Million there is nothing wrong with putting 2.97 Million +. That's not inflating numbers.

D12 discography
I'm thinking of bring D12 discography to FL status, eventually. If anyone that worked or maintains this article would like to help, because of the obvious connections with the artists, feel free. The bulk of the article is done, a lead, UK certifications, the music video director's name(s) for "Git Up" and some work on "Other appearances" need to be done, but if anyone is willing to help, it'd be very much appreciated. Thanks! Alex Douglas (talk) 02:09, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

I think the D12 discovery should appear in the eminem discovery also, as these are obviously linked, we all know the group D12 only sold because Eminem was the lead artist.

Other songs that charted and featured Eminem
There are many other songs besides the ones under Singles: Guest appearances section that made the Billboard charts some way.
 * 1999: "What's the Difference" (Dr. Dre featuring Xzibit and Eminem): #76 on US R&B
 * 2003: "My Name Is" (Xzibit featuring Nate Dogg and Eminem): #66 US R&B and "911" (Boo Yah Tribe featuring Eminem): #117 US R&B
 * 2007: "Touchdown" (T.I. featuring Eminem): #109 US and "Peep Show" (50 Cent featuring Eminem): #116 US

I'd like to add those to the section, but those weren't really released as singles, but rather promo singles or album cuts that happened to get a lot of radio play. So is it OK to add these there or should these go under "other charted songs"? Because another user (Str8cash) prefers such songs go under OCS; see Jay-Z discography as an example.

On the one other FL hip hop discography, 50 Cent discography, I see that the other charted songs section includes featured songs like "The Re-Up" (50 featuring Em).

But I prefer that everything be organised between artist's own songs and artist's featured songs. For now, I'll add these songs to the featured section so that readers will be informed, but please share your ideas here. Andrewlp1991 (talk) 02:02, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

Japanese positions
I have replaced US R&B chart positions with the Japanese positions because it is more important to have Japan in the table than US R&B positions. Japan is an important market to have along with its certifications; therefore, I also inserted the positions so we'd have a consistency. I'm not at all sure what was the use of US R&B positions when we already have the main US positions.--Harout72 (talk) 22:47, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
 * WP:DISCOGSTYLE says that, "There is no set inclusion criteria for which charts should and shouldn't be included, but a good rule of thumb is to go by the relative success of the artist on that chart." Eminem has seen more success on the US R&B/Hip-Hop chart than the Japanese market. Yvesnimmo (talk) 22:52, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

With all due respect, but you make it sound as though you are speaking of a specific market other than US when you're referring to US R&B chart. We already have the US main (Billboard 200) positions covering Eminem's US chart performance, and that should be enough. And why would one say that Eminem's positions in Japan are not at all impressive when 80% of the listed positions are Top-5 positions, The Eminem Show at No.3, Encore at No.3, Relapse at No.1, Recovery at No.6, Curtain Call: The Hits at No.4.--Harout72 (talk) 23:12, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
 * No one said "Eminem's positions in Japan are not at all impressive". The peaks on the R&B/Hip-Hop chart are always higher for every album than the Japanese ones. Yvesnimmo (talk) 23:18, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Genre charts are perfectly acceptable for established artists of the respective genre and when they have seen a good amount of success on said chart. See FLs Madonna singles discography, Taylor Swift discography, etc. In Japan, neither The Slim Shady LP nor The Marshall Mathers LP charted, while both reached number one on the US R&B chart. For albums The Eminem Show onwards, only Relapse reached number one in Japan, whereas all of them reached number one on the US R&B chart. – Chase  ( talk ) 23:19, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

If your argument is not over Japan's positions being unimpressive, then I am not sure what we are discussing here. As I stated above US R&B positions do not represent a separate market than US. Therefore, there is no use for those positions. You'd have a point if I replaced highly charted market with Japan. Such is not the case here.--Harout72 (talk) 23:26, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
 * They are unimpressive compared to the US R&B chart. That chart may not represent a different territory, however, Eminem is an established hip hop artist and thus including that chart to demonstrate how he has performed with his primary audience in his home country is absolutely acceptable. – Chase  ( talk ) 23:32, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

We are to concentrate on the main charts of each market respectively. US R&B chart is for secondary use, and with 10 slots available to us, the application of that should be left out as we have other important chart-performances to cover first, for other parts of the world.--Harout72 (talk) 23:48, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
 * As I have said, Eminem is a hip hop artist from the US, and thus having the US R&B/hip hop chart allows us to not only show how he has performed in his home country, but also how he has performed with his primary audience (R&B and hip hop listeners) in his home country. Furthermore, his US R&B album peaks are all higher than his Japan album peaks. – Chase  ( talk ) 23:51, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

Your point is rather weak. R&B positions do not at all represent separate sales, it is simply designed to list the positions of R&B related materials. That is not enough to toss Japan out over R&B positions. The Billboard 200 is the one based on sales generated by artists respectively, therefore, R&B is not as important. You must understand that we need to cover as many territories as we possibly can before we bring in secondary charts for the same markets which we already have the main charts from within the table.--Harout72 (talk) 00:01, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
 * WP:DISCOGSTYLE does not state that we must include ten different territories for the ten chart slots generally used. US R&B charts do not use any other sales/airplay data than the Hot 100/Billboard 200, but as they highlight R&B and hip hop songs solely, it allows users to see how he has performed with - as a hip hop artist - his primary audience in his home country. His Japanese chart performance is weak in comparison. – Chase  ( talk ) 00:06, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

Japanese main positions cannot be compared to US R&B charts, please understand that. One (Japanese positions) is strctly based on sales, the other (R&B) simply emphasizes Eminem's performance amongst the R&B artists. Please understand that that is not enough to include R&B positions. And please stop edit-warring with me, you must establish a consensus with me also. And I don't agree using R&B over Japan.--Harout72 (talk) 00:16, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Including the R&B charts is a consensus that formed silently (by the fact that it remained without removal) and you need to respect that until the discussion is over. And I don't see what is wrong with emphasizing his performance among other R&B and hip hop performers, seeing as he is a hip hop performer. – Chase  ( talk ) 00:36, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

Saying that consensus has been formed silently and not being able to present the very consensus is vague. In the same vein, I don't see what's wrong with highlighting Eminem's Japanese chart performance after all the reasons I have pointed out.--Harout72 (talk) 00:54, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
 * What is there to present if the consensus formed silently...? And likewise, I don't see what's wrong with highlighting how Eminem has done with the primary audience for him in his home country, especially since this has been done for quite some time now and is done similarly in other FL discographies. – Chase  ( talk ) 03:22, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Harout72, I wouldn't be opposed to replacing another chart currently here with the Japanese charts. I do however maintain the position that as an American hip hop artist, the R&B/hip hop chart should remain. – Chase  ( talk ) 03:27, 29 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Chase, I strongly believe that the main US album-chart-positions are enough. Again, silent consensus should not be discussed anywhere as it's nothing substantial. And there is no specific policy to what you're trying to enforce here. I personally, don't think there is anything wrong with having US R&B chart-positions either, but we don't have enough slots. The use of R&B album-charts would be useful if Eminem's albums had failed to chart on Billboard 200, but they all have charted on Billboard 200 with an exception of Infinite which has not charted on R&B charts either. What other reason is there left to include the R&B chart-positions? In fact, R&B chart-positions should also be removed from the singles' table as currently there are 11 slots.--Harout72 (talk) 04:39, 29 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment/Support Harout's proposal Well I for one, support Harout. R&B is simply a chart, a smaller branch of the Hot 100. While Eminem may not be very popular in Asia, he certainly has certifications in Japan. I find adding Japanese peaks and certifications more important, than adding a lesser and secondary US chart.-- Peter Griffin  •  Talk2Me   05:55, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

French charts positions
I suggest we remove Denmark's positions from the albums' tables and insert the French positions. In the same vein, we should remove Ireland's positions from the singles' table and insert the French positions. Note that currently we don't have Denmark's positions for the singles' table, and we don't have Ireland's positions for the albums' tables. And by inserting the French positions, we'll have consistency throughout the entire page. Also, France has the fifth largest market in the world and Eminem's French positions for albums especially are as high as that of Denmark's. Also, note that Eminem has good number of certifications in France for albums (and also singles) the levels of which are a lot higher than the levels in Denmark and Ireland. --Harout72 (talk) 21:30, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
 * The countries don't have to be consistent between albums and singles (and other charted songs). Yves (talk) 21:48, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

Note that I'm not only suggesting this for consistency sake, that is just one reason. I mainly want to include France because it generates five times more sales than Denmark, and even more than that than Ireland. Eminem's available certifications for France is one way to see that.--Harout72 (talk) 21:57, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

"Encore" (the song's) UK chart position
I've recently done some research and it turns out that the Eminem song "Encore" (from his album from the same name) has charted somewhere apart from the US: in the UK, it charted at #116 (although it was only a promo in the UK). To prove it, I've provided a source: it's a large chart log of virtually all the songs have charted in the top 200 in Britain. Here's the link: http://zobbel.de/cluk/CLUK_E.HTM (To find Eminem's songs, simply scroll down until you find his name, and the songs are organised by date, so finding "Encore" should not be too difficult.) The source is reliable as they collect their data from the top 200 chart newsletters that are sent around in the UK, which the Charts-Plus provides them with. I've tried editing this into the table myself, but after a while it keeps getting removed from the page, even when I provide the reference. I understand that as it was only a promo in Britain, there might be confusion there, but as "Encore" is on the main table, I think the data should stand, with perhaps a note inserted underneath the table saying that it was only a promo in the UK. If someone could sort that out, that would be good. Cheers.

Sufur222 (talk) 10:28, 28 December 2010 (UTC)


 * You need to post your source at WP:RSN and have the folks over there look at it and see if it is reliable, it does not seem reliable to me at all. By the way, we are only to post the positions of the sales charts. I don't think promo materials would qualify as one.--Harout72 (talk) 03:53, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

"Role Model"
Shouldn't "Role Model" be on the main singles table, instead of in the "Other charted songs" section? Granted, it didn't chart anywhere significant, but then again neither did "Just Don't Give a Fuck" or "Bitch Please II" and they are on there. I think this as on the main "Role Model" page, the picture is of the vinyl single itself, meaning it must have been a single, and on the page for The Slim Shady LP, Role Model is down in the singles section and even has a specific release date. Can someone edit this in (unless I've missed something)? Sufur222 (talk) 13:56, 6 March 2011 (UTC)

Eminem songs list
Hi, I created a new page named: Eminem songs list. I just noticed the page as been deleted. People told me it's have all this on your discography page. The thing is it's have more than the half of his songs that aren't on his discography/discography page. Just wondering if it's possible to replace it as well, or work on the discography page to put all the songs that aren't on it. thanks.

Also, the list they pointed me "Eminem production discography" is the list songs that Eminem PRODUCED so it's not necessary songs where Eminem sing in.

i put infinite and slim shady ep in this category becAUSE they were not released by a major label record and slim shady ep was a demo and eminem sold infinite by himself and friends so this is fair to put these tapes in independent releases. (Web the label Eminem was on during the time he was selling the tapes. Also minor label record but also sold recovery thru their label)

Recovery WW Sales
According to "Rolling Stone" Eminem's Recovery has sold about 7.5 Million copies Worldwide including 4 Million in the US and 1 Million came from digital sales.

NOTE - The Slim Shady LP was not a No.12 Hit in the UK. It reached an initial No.12 Peak on W/E 24th April 1999. However, on W/E 5th August 2000, it reached its highest Peak - No.10. 82.22.125.117 (talk) 11:35, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

Eminem 'best American rapper'?
That's more of an opinion, not exactly information. It's not a major issue but I think it'd be better to remove it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.102.13.35 (talk) 19:41, 8 June 2012 (UTC)

8th album
There's no confirmation that the new album title is Redemption, or that it's being released on March 11, 2013. Therefore, it's a troll. Please remove it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.178.221.161 (talk) 16:43, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
