Digital subscriptions and sales are easier to count so performance results are obvious on the very next day of release. While for Billboard 200 we have to wait a week, Amazon and Apple provide their stats immediately. And the results unsurprisingly demonstrate that Eminem’s new record landed well.
Here are the positions of “Music To Be Murdered By” on US charts (for explicit and clean versions):
iTunes: No 1 (explicit) and No 31 (clean)
Amazon: No 1 (explicit) and No 10 (clean)
Apple Music: No 1 (explicit) and No 14 (clean)
On iTunes “MTBMB” holds the top position in the UK, Canada, Australia, Germany, France and, of course, globally.
