The question this week wasn't whether Eminem's Recovery would debut at #1, but if it could reach the magical 1 million plateau, like two of his previous efforts. Well, Slim Shady fell a bit short, but his album is projected to be the year's highest debut so far, selling 741,000 in its first week, according to preliminary figures from Nielsen SoundScan.
Recovery beat the other two highest debuts of the year, from Sade and Lady Antebellum, by more than 200,000. It also easily beat the debut last year of his Relapse album, which hit #1 with 608,000.
