Eminem Heads for Third Week at #1

So far, it’s the summer of Eminem… at least as far as the album sales chart goes.

The hip-hop star’s Recovery continues apace next week, with the platinum-plus Shady/ Aftermath/Interscope album still dominating the #1 slot.

Through two weeks, Slim Shady’s sales total sits at 1.06m and rising after the biggest debut of 2010. Lady Antebellum’s Capitol Nashville/EMI album Need You Now remains the year’s top seller at 2.4m.

Among this week's debuts, Def Jam/IDJ’s Big Boi will be the biggest, with the Outkast member’s solo debut, Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty, which went from Jive to L.A. Reid’s label, set to sell between 50-55k.

One-time Poison lead singer and reality TV star Bret Michaels’ Custom Built, on Poor Boy Records through Mailboat, will move 25-30k, miraculous considering the dude was almost dead a couple of months ago. The country-rock effort, his first solo studio album in five years, features the single, “Nothing to Lose,” featuring Miley Cyrus.
Enrique Iglesias’ first album for Universal Republic, the bilingual Euphoria, appears set to sell between 25-30k as well, with a Top 20 hit at Top 40 hit in “I Like It,” featuring Pitbull.
