So if you didn't see my tweet yesterday about the man hitting diamond here it is. The Marshall Mathers LP has hit 10X Platinum just as The Eminem Show did only days before. That makes Eminem the only hip hop artist to ever have 2 albums hit that fame and also makes The Marshall Mathers LP the greatest selling hip hop album EVER in the US. I'm sure this will stir up "The Greatest Rapper Alive" arguments all over. But since nobody else has EVER done this what is there to really argue? If you care the other 4 albums to ever hit that plateau are as follows:
Notorious BIG - Life After Death
2pac - All Eyez On Me
MC Hammer - Hammer Don't Hurt Em
Outkast - Speakerboxx/Love Below
