Rapper Eminem’s new single “Not Afraid” debuted at the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart this week with nearly 400,000 in initial sales/digital downloads. According to Billboard, Em’s single is the 16th to debut at No. 1 in the chart’s 52 year history and it’s also his third Hot 100 No. 1.
He first led the list for 12 weeks with “Lose Yourself” in 2002-03 and made an impressive 78-1 jump with “Crack A Bottle,” along with Dr. Dre and 50 Cent, on the list dated Feb. 21, 2009. “Bottle” set a then-record for selling the most downloads in its first week of release (418,000), a mark shattered the following week when Flo Rida’s “Right Round” started with 636,000.
“Not Afraid” (check it out above) is the first offering from the Detroit rapper’s upcoming album Recovery, due in stores next month (Jun 22). The video for the new track was was shot last week and I have a first look from the set waiting for you below:
