Eminem 'To Sell 650,000 Copies Of Relapse'

Eminem looks set to top the Billboard charts next week with his new album 'Relapse'.

According to midweek sales figures, the 'Crack A Bottle' rapper will sell more than 650,000 copies, as Em's comeback record is proving to be very popular with fans.

'Relapse' is Mathers' six studio album and first new material since his 2004 'retirement' album 'Encore'. That record managed to sell 711,000 copies in the first seven days of sale.

This week it also emerged that a promotional TV commercial for 'Relapse' was banned in the US, due to being "too gory".
