Eminem now ties with David Bowie and U2, who also have 11 chart-topping albums in the UK each.
“The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce)” sold over 45,000 units in Britain upon its debut, ending the 12-week run of Taylor’s new album.
By the way, it is not the only album Eminem has on the UK chart. “Curtain Call: The Hits” is ranked at No.11, “Curtain Call 2” at No.37, and “The Eminem Show” at No.74.
Meanwhile, on the singles chart, “Houdini” holds its place in the Top 10 for the seventh week, sitting at No.4. There are two new entries from “The Death of Slim Shady” on the ranking: “Habits” at No.11 and “Renaissance” and No.13.
Eminem made it to London just in time to get two momentoes of his outstanding success: Official Number One Awards for “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)” and recent No.1 single “Houdini”.
