Eminem Now Has Two Diamond Selling Singles

You got Gold (5,00,000+ sales), then you got Platinum (1,000,000+ sales), and then you got Diamond (10,000,000+ sales). When it comes to album sales, Eminem is in a league of his own. He is the only rapper alive with two Diamond selling albums (The Marshall Mathers LP & The Eminem Show); now he has broken another record. Eminem has become the only artist in history with two diamond selling singles. His 'Love the Way You Lie' single with Rihanna hit ten million digital sales about two years ago, now he has done it again with Not Afraid.

Read what RIAA CEO and Chairman, Cary Sherman had to say about Eminem's recent achievement. 

We are delighted to recognize Eminem as the first artist to earn two RISS Digital Diamond Awards. This singular achievement — earning a Diamond Award on two separate digital songs — is unparalleled, and we congratulate him on forever etching a mark in Gold & Platinum Program history.

Sales of All Tupac's Albums

Why is/was Tupac so great? Because he made timeless music. I still get chills when I listen to Thug Passion, and I heard that song for the first time 18 years ago. Tupac was so passionate about music that he made enough of it to last 7 albums after his death. His work ethic was ridiculous.
