Eminem's 'Music to Be Murdered By: Side B' Beats Sales Projections

The initial projections for Eminem's surprise drop Music To Be Murdered By: Side B were 70-80K SPS

That would be the lowest opening of Shady's major-label career, and the news of the numbers brought haters like Lil Pump out of the woodwork.

Em ended up doing a little better than that.

His final first-week sales will and at about 90K.

We also learned that it's not really an opening week at all.  All sales for the Music To Be Murdered By: Side B will be added to the original album.  Music To Be Murdered By had already gone platinum and now it's a little more so.
