No surprise here. Em earns his fifth number one album as The Marshall Mathers LP 2 took the top spot on the charts this week. The album sold 779,577 copies this past week setting up for a quick road to platinum. There wasn’t much competition for Em, but still, these are great numbers and another win for hip hop. Congrats Shady.
UPDATE: The official Soundscan number is 792k.
